The very first trader in our dropbox-game actually gave me the minimorph hull!
It's still early on techwize (i have 6 11 5 9 5 4, guess I will have Jihad in 2 turns), but the hull is actually allready available.
Sooo.. is it possible to make some great use of this hull early on, or is it not worth the bother?
What should I research to place on it if I decide to use the minimorph for something fancy? Very Happy

Hi!
The problem with MiniMorph is it's not good at anything. Every specialized design beats it at its specialized role, and it has not enough slots to "artificially" make it better.

When I played with Stars! mod tool, I gave it 2 more slots, took away 1 engine and halved its mass and resource costs. With these changes I could make it usefull or cost-effective in some roles, like cloaked scanner, medium skirmisher to fight DD skirmishers/sweepers or mid-game cloaked sweeper/minelayer. Without those changes tho ... Uh Oh

BR, Iztok
