Gameplay[]
(There was nothing here because nobody has ever used these before.)
The Firebird Bay actually gets outdone by the Viper Bay in terms of maximum capacity... 6 Firebirds versus 8 Vipers. Seriously? The Feds are outdoing the Aurorans on saturation?
Outfit[]
Firebird Bay on an Aurora Carrier
"The Auroran shipwrights can install the electromag catapults for Firebird launching quite quickly. The conversion also includes the appropriate Firebird housing facilities, allowing for a maximum of six of them."
The Firebird Bay is a weapon that uses Firebirds as ammunition. You must have completed part of the Heraan Storyline to purchase these outfits.
Firebird and an Aurora Carrier
"Firebirds are the main Auroran fighter. Their engines are simple, to say the least. Their task is to protect the Phoenix from attack by smaller fighters such as the Viper, while the Phoenix take on the heavier ships. The Firebird is slower than the Viper, but not by enough to give the Viper a decisive edge. Battles between the two often come down to individual skill. Many a Federation/Auroran border skirmish has come to a halt while the two sides watch a Firebird/Viper dogfight between renowned pilots."
A maxxed out load of Firebirds will set you back 600k.
