C8X Pisces: Best little runabout in the 'verse.

It doesn't have all the creature comforts of the Avenger Titan, and it's not as sleek and stylish as the 100i series, but the Pisces is an excellent little runabout. No matter how big your fleet is, there's room for a Pisces.

I had ignored the Anvil Pisces for years. Seeing it as just the rowboat for the Carrack. I currently have a fleet of 14 ships and 5 vehicles. I didn’t need a rowboat. Then IAE 2951 came around, and for some reason, I took it out for a test drive. And fell in love. It is surprisingly fast and a really good flyer in atmo. I love taking it on bunker runs. Whether the bunker is friendly or hostile, all you need is a relatively small rock to park behind and then walk in. I can regularly park safely within a few hundred meters. And you can either do your looting inside the Pisces, or you can take a 2SCU cargo box, or two. It’s like having a flying Ursa. I usually avoid fights. But sometimes you show up for a mission and someone else’s bounty has spawned overhead. Kitted out with four gimballed S1 bulldogs, it is pretty scrappy. I can usually take out the hostiles en route to my mission. Also, it’s small enough that you can call it up at a PB pad at the outposts. So it’s really easy to make the 2SCU cargo boxes. I bought myself a Pisces at IAE 2951 and have been flying it a lot in the past year. Enough that when the IFW Pisces Starter Pack came out, and it was the only way to get the Invictus Blue and Gold paint, and it was only a few Euros more than the standalone IAE Pisces has been, I bought the pack. Then I melted the old one and used the credit to buy the new skins. So, in a day, I went from no skins to three skins. I am absolutely in love with my Pisces.
