And the armor would redirect the energy of that attack to the other side of the armor. Energy blasts would seem to travel through me http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Here's some portraits for my race's ships. It's brighter now, yay! Tell me what you think!

Pretty good, drone needs a little more light.

Erm... I slipped it in with your armor NA. It's inside your armor. And you said it yourself: the armor would detonate if just a single buckytube was fixed incorrectly, and I think I may have snapped a few when I slipped in that pulse grenade...

And I'm sorry for the D-word. What word would you use, then?

well i don't have pacience to destroy a Juggernaut with my fighter.
The same happened to me the first time i played that mission and with those shivan devices, i was near it when it exploded if my memory don't fails the hull of my ship was on 10% more or less http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

It is actually quick to bring the Juggernaut down: I think it took me about two hours (so 15 minutes with X8 speed), but reloading is what really takes a lot of time (you could speed up all the way to X64 otherwise). I am not sure if I had one or two banks of Trebuchets though. That was kind of silly to give that much firepower to fighters: if fighters have longer-ranged weapons than capital ships, and are able to lay waste to any vessel from afar, what is the point of using capital ships?

If you merely want the credit without doing any hard work, just fire a couple of missiles at the Juggernaut in High Noon. If no other ship damages the Juggernaut, you will be credited with killing that Juggernaut. It does look nice in your kill roster too.

The carbon nano-tubes in their final form will not affect the armor if a few are broken after the machining process.I also always wear that armor http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif It's low profile http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Also, machining errors would not be as noticable on personel armor, but rather on ship armor, where the nano-tubes redirect the energy into redirection chambers which slowly bleed off the energy into the shields and weapons systems.

And its best if you let the other people control their own actions, instead of you controlling it for them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

And I use nano-precision technology all the time, in creating my carbon nano-tube technology. A carbon nano-tube welded wrong, and my interlaced carbon armor is useless. One energy blast to the area, and the whole thing detonates.

And you expect people to write one sentence at a time, spoken by themselves only?



I rest my case, Your Honor.

Yes, I do. Its noobish to make other people say stuff that they would never say. That gattling gun wasn't really all that amazing http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Just do something, let other people respond. Don't do something, and make other people's responses http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
