This ship is one of the very best ships in X4. I LOVE IT. I was able to add more rooms to the ship using a MOD. The Crucible Wrath is the backbone of the fleet for my empire. However, I will need to DECOMMISSION many of these ships because they will not work in the new updates. The Multi-Verse Empires needs the Crucible 6.2 updates. Please.
I think this is one of the best looking designs out there, however I had to add shielding and a few extra medium turrets to get it to where I felt it was useful.
I love this ship. It helped us won the war against the XEON. The only thing that is missing for me is the Captain's Quarters or compability with the More Rooms Mod. If you added Rooms to this ship, I will make it my Flag Ship for sure.
The turrets not having shields kind of makes sense, but it really needs some shields on the engines. I don't really feel that naked easy-target engines are good for this ship's role; in fact I think it should have more engine shields than other ships, and a touch more speed. Then it goes from a ship that has to hope and pray nothing notices it to a bang-and-zoom ship that can run around the edges of a battle and snipe with that awesome frontal weapon suite.
I managed to do this for myself. Just switched over the rear shield to the engine group, tweaked down the mass and drag a bit to make it faster than the Rattler (when both are equipped with Split engines), and walla-walla-bing-bang, I have a ship that's extremely fast, still 2x as well shielded as a Rattlesnake (if not as well as a Behemoth anymore), has the same main guns but fewer, weaker and unshielded turrets, has less hull strength but with a full L-class shield over the engines, is extremely difficult to wind up stranded & waiting to die.

Other than that, nice ship.
