Changes

With the newer addition of drain to many lighter ships, the [[Valkyrie]] (Valk) is fast becoming the mark of pro-pirates. Known for alone a long time as more of a status symbol more then any thing than anything else (due to the fact that it took such high levels to get it), it was long over looked overlooked as a good fighter ship due to it's its shape which can make it easy to hit.

That was all changed when an unknown pirate started using it to chase down moths. Behemoths (BehemothMoths) . It was then discovered that it's its low drain cupeled coupled with it's its three small ports made it ideal for running down traders who just wanted to get to the next port alive.

Common configurations are: Three sunflares - due to the flares not using any energy this ship is made for running down infi-boost ships and stopping them.

One Sunflare, and two gauss. Or (or two flare one gauss, ) - this ship is more of a fighter used to run down and then pummel fleeing ships. It's Its rockets are used to cause the fleeing ship to tumble around then it closes in and uses it's its gauss/(es ) to inflict heavy damage before the trader can recover.

Lastly two Two ion or phase and one gauss, (or one ion or phase and two neutrons 1-3. This ) - this ship is often used in conjunction with the first tri-sun valk to great effect. The tri-sun will hit the target and this ship will then fly in close and inflict damage before the trader can regain he his bearings. Or this ship will engage the trader and the tri-sun will fly around behind the trader filling him full of rockets.
