Hey guys, My fleet is coming up for T3 shipyard and I've been thinking about getting the Nova retrofit as it is one of my favourite ship designs however I am unsure as to how to build it, I'm playing an engineer in a good Excelsior. I want this ship to do PvE and dabble in PvP without making everyone around me hate me

Any and all help with this would be much appreciated

That being said a word of caution. The Nova is an offensive sci ship with a tactical bias so it will not play to your engineers strengths.
If you insist on getting the normal Retrofit, set it up like a Recon.

I don't have the money to get 4 FSMs or get 1 and the ship, I also lack the will to grind it out with the current dil system
Not since I bought a DCE doff this morning, I might try to grind for 1250 zen... but at 150 zen a day minus my in game dil costs that'll take some time...
Heads up on this: the discount only applies to any VA ships you've bought from the C-Store. The Science Vessel Refit (Rhode Island) does not get you the discount. So you'd have to obtain 4 modules somehow even if you did buy the C-Store version.
Thanks, sucks but thanks.
Well I am certainly looking into it but if I can't pull off the fleet version then I'll get the standard one and lay it out with my sovi's tac layout (TT, AP:B and FAW) and give it a science denial build, then its just the eng bit (though I'm planning to cycle 1 EPtS (DCE doffs) and an Aux2SIF)
