   The Starlander attack is a variant of the Starlander series. It kind of takes the Starlander chassis and outfits it with a more offensive loadout. It's got remote turrets on top. The co-pilot's got some fun little missile turrets at the rear to keep people off the back end. You don't have access to every single gun on it. There's only four pilot controlled guns. You'll notice immediately from the exterior that it has these new two twin size five man turrets. What makes this MISK is the the shape language that was used to make this turret. It replicates the exterior of the ship which contains round forms, welded forms and chunky shapes. MIS as a manufacturer kind of really proud of the manufacturing and

   they're not afraid to show it. You kind of see all the compound forms that reveal the underlying structure where the fuel cells are, but it's a little more refined. Paneling is a lot cleaner. It's not something like a Drake ship where everything's just completely exposed. I really like the misk look. It's got this sort of darker stealth armor, so it looks really like sleek. The guys have done a really great job with the lighting on it. It's got this like really mean looking red lighting. It just looks really sick. It does not have a cargo lift, but it still has your cargo bay in the back for 96 SCU and space for holding ground vehicles. And you also have the addition of a hanger up top. There were a lot of requests for a version that could carry a ship. So, I'm glad we've managed to uh figure that out. It can accommodate one

   Fury, but if you are a good pilot, you can accommodate two as well. What we've done is we've stripped out the Max's separate habitation rooms and replaced those with the hanger. It's not that much big, but it's it's compact. It has a landing pad there with really cool small refueling parts. We've extended the Max's habitation kitchen area to have its own bunk room. On the lower deck, we've replaced the long cargo bridge sort of area with a troop deployment area where some soldiers can dump out of like an extending gantry and between that and the cargo bay is a small medical broom. No other MISK ships has a medical bay. So, it was a bit hard at the first to get used to

   it like how the design will be. What I feel the people will notice most will be the aesthetic of it. This bright lights and those metal floors. It's a bit high-tech, but it's not like very high maintenance. The engineering and the cockpit are the same as the Max. And in the cockpit, it's very spacious. It's accommodate pilot, co-pilot. It looks really cool because it's integrated with the bridge. The turret room is located in the belly of the ship. At first glance, it resembles a shrine to warfare with all the red lights around and the ammunition and the turret seats on the left and the right. It looks really cool. The animations are really cool.

   From the hatch closing over the player to the seat rotating and going into the turret and the cons sliding out in preparation for battle. Target destroyed. The Star Lancer would be for like teams of players who really like missions in a large group of like soldiers as well as like the actual people crewing the ship and the turrets. You've got quite a lot of space for ground pounders with rifles. The cargo bay in the back can be used for like some of the smaller vehicles like the Cyclone. I think it's a really good ship for like just team play.
