Does CIG hate the Avenger?

We don't hate the Avenger.

No, the Avengers are a great example of how we prioritize design before making money, because we're not going to do the variants until the guys responsible for that ship are happy with them.

And the Avenger is one of our most popular ships. I won't tell you exactly how many are out there, but I recently just did an audit of how many of each ship is actually out there in the world, owned by folks, and the Avenger is in our top ten.
