yeah, I started trying to get it when I found out styx was gonna get screwed over in the engineer GFU, I wonder if those ships are going to get any unique gear, hopefully valour gets a deployable turret or something

Judging by the atlas, all engis are getting screwed over in the engi update. Nothing but heal modules by the looks of things.
Someone needs to start an “Engineers don’t just heal” campaign and bug the devs about it.

sapper engineers are my favourite, plus tbh the ‘pendulum’ module is still interesting, I’m just mad that so many R9 frigates are getting only one item, and in most cases it is hilariously situational and pointless
Valor was once a glorious ship
I miss those times
Monochrome map toggle.
Well , yes, noticed it too, what could one say?!
The guards got good and necessary love by the devs multiple times, now.
The last love they gave to the engineer role was the Wazgot with its many new modules. Sadly only one interesting engineer module in the Atlas, in regard to the GFU (global fleet upgrade)
Yes indeed, the Valor was a very good ship. The ‘engineer meta’ was changed towards slow, tanky empire engineer builds, though, since long, its like a guard developer did a job on engineers ”)

Valor is still bae with this thing on it ;D
What about those players who already got all Premium ships? Shouldn’t you add something extra for them? We get nothing, again!

this: did it already , not much response, everyone and their grandma like to fly quick killer meta ships

does it have explosion damage? a bit +range but why the spread ( and lower projctile speed)? engineers need their cpu slot for other things than [Electronic guidance] … like [Engineering regenerator 17] (hull heal on enemy killed in range, from Wazgot) or [Spatial scanner 17] (for open space)!!!
welp. i had hoped they would be smart enough to include something like the old adaptive for fed engies, because they suffered most from adaptive hull nerf.
on the other hand, that should be a module available to all engies anyway.
i think i will ignore most of these modules, engies would have needed more passive modules, instead of so many active modules with funky mechanics. e.g. some nice strafing for the grizzly.
but well, let the gunship players tell them what to do, thats a good idea. because for them the engi is just the one player who has to sit there and heal them in their glorious conquest. even if that can be covered with the brokk or naga anyway, and you would not need a whole role for it.

what? premium ships can use all modules, isnt that nice enough?

That’s the raw Weapon with no modules and just SuperNova Ammunition and Implants

the engineer meta was always slow tanky empire builds, as far as i can remember. flying the valor without getting eaten alive was always a challenge and required smart use of turn keys and modules, and still it was very vulnerable to focus fire. only a handful of pilots were mad enough to fly it as main engi.
removal of turn keys and adaptive nerf (both intended to nerf interceptors) killed it, but it was already quite rare to begin with, and fed engies never had that much prominence.
octopus does not really count here, and since brokk and wazgot, are also quite rare.
Spark for Xenochips? → i should have bought golden eagle instead… damn

Yes - compared it with Coil mortar and Eclipse launcher (on Valor which has only 1 cpu modifier slot)
I would prefer eclipse most of the time, because I need the CPU slot (as I said, sorry for doublette here)
But I want explosion dmage plüs auto aim like all the others have it  
Please see my engineer fleet upgrade poll, here:

Why would you need a CPU slot for that weapon? That Spread is no problem at all.
Maybe you are right, but - Well then, why implement the spread of 1.0° in the first place if it was “no problem at all” 
lets have standard grandma auto aim and snap in cross-hair visials here too!!! and : 9km max range builds
