Fighter just meaning a small ship. In the realm of Freelancer, and I assume Freespace, a Descent ship would be considered a fighter.

Because of the wonky sense of scale in the Descent games, the Pyro winds up being something like the size of a hang-glider.

The trilogy of books by Peter Telep described it as being far more sane size-wise, big enough to contain a small cargo hold that the hostages would have been able to fit in.

Pyros are the most wacked-out thing in the entire gaming universe, scale-wise.

I thought we discussed that the hostages, due to their 2D nature, stacked

I understand what you're saying TG. Perhaps a better class would be light figher, or terrestrial light fighter, not really intended for heavy space combat.

NB: if anyone wants the model from the first post, PM me. Untextured max only, and I'll probably release the WIP regardless at some point anyways (I have about 3-5 models from the last few years sitting in that category).
