Peltast Class Peltast Class

You've seen it on the forums thanks in part to thunderfoot006's ongoing mission to bring fighter operations to every race in A2. Dan1025 has put together this smaller sister of the Hideki class, called the Peltast, and it's a real asset to the Cardassian side. The spoonhead players in this community will definitely love having this little hornet in their arsenal. She might be small but she has a sting, and in packs she can be downright murderous.

Definitely download worthy!

Cool

nice work dan :-)

Sorry all it appears that the wrong pulse sprite is listed in the weapon odf, to stop it crashing your game, open the "cfpulseo" file and replace


//The sprite which is used for this ordinance

Sprite = "cpulse"


with:


//The sprite which is used for this ordinance

Sprite = "kpphaser"


And that should solve it :-)
