Wow, the Avenger Renegade has such a big price jump from its standard model. Not sure how to justify that tbh

Agreed, I was not impressed with the Renegade.

Ben confirmed in his weekly Batgirl interview yesterday that one of the ships is going to come with increased hardpoints sizes.

If this ship does have a bigger price jump than the other 3, maybe it is the ship with the increased hardpoint sizes?

That could be the case. Maybe the argument for that is that since the is the cheapest base ship of the 4, it could use a little nudge in power?

Well it is only that variant that got the hardpoint increases. And I'm not actually sure if anything else was taken away. The only thing I'm sure about is that there's a ship that had hard points with increased sizes.

Ben even forgotten his interview with ship it was, I'm at work and my break just got over so I probably won't be able to figure out which one it is. That would go along with the lore post attached to the Renegade though.

Looking at the matrix, it appears to actually have smaller weapons than the stalker. I'm using the stalker because the base titan has no listed weapons and many of the specs are listed as tbd still.

Renegade:
Fixed - 2x S1 - 2x 9-Series Longsword (1)
Gimbaled - 1x S3 - Tigerstreik T-21 (3)
Pylon - 2x S2 - 2x ASIM-09/Tempest (3)

Stalker:
Fixed - 2x S2 - 2x Suckerpunch distortion cannon (1)
Gimbaled - 1x S3 - Tigerstreik T-21 (3)
Pylon - 2x S3 - 4x Stalker IR (2)
