Spud Nick:
Pilots are now swapping out the weapons on their favorite ships to meet new threats and counter new tactics. Here is a thread where you can post your new ship builds and talk about what builds counter others.

N-Sunderland:
My piloting is most notable for its clumsiness and utter lack of coordination, but here's a Pyra build I've been using.

Left side Mercs
Top left Gatling
Top right Rocket Carousel

This a ramming build. I start the match out by having my crew snipe the other ships if they're in sight. Once they get close enough, I use the rockets to disable their guns and the gatling to tear their hull up before I come in with moonshine and ram them. I used this pretty successfully for a couple of matches against Paddling ships, but then they started putting gatlings on their Pyras  and making it suicide for me to ram them. Maybe a better captain could use this build to greater effect.

The Churrosaur:
Since the flak nerf I've actually had some success mounting a hellhound on a goldfish- then moonshine and ramming bumpers to finish the job :p

We'll see, but the current Meta seems to make the carousel indispensable as a burning, disabling sidearm.

HamsterIV:
With the increased rebuild time shatter damage has become far more effective as are Manticore equipped Goldfish and Spires. As a counter I am fielding a double front merc Pyramiddion.  It breaks Manticores at range before they get close enough to get a tight volly in. I put them on the front to minimize my profile in sniping matches. My side guns are carronades. If I am forced into a close range fight, I try to pop their balloon and lift out, then reestablish the fight at longer range.

Not being one to follow trends I have turned my Goldfish into what some call a "Blenderfish" I mount the Hellhound Carronade on the front and two banshees on the side.

My Squid has also been modified with two carronades on the side and rear, and a chain gun up front. Since it is harder to flame lock a target. I will settle for popping their balloon and staying above their firing arc.

Both Broad sides of my Galleon are Manticore and HellHound. It shreds newbies who approach level, but it does poorly against vets. I may change this build soon.
