Re: A guide for would be Fan-Fiction Authors

To create good aliens, you might want to read stories by writers who make good alien races. I suggest Larry Niven, Hal Clement and James White. There's also an excellent book called 'The Alien Way',...

Re: Star Wars Mod - II (Sci-Fi Xover Mod)

You could ask Master Belisarius or Mephisto to have a look at the AI files, they are the resident AI experts, or so I've heard.

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

Er, I didn't exactly say that carriers were underpowered. What I said is that, if you want carriers to play the central role in SEIV, you need to create a powerful torpedo-like (or bomb-like) weapon...

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

You are right about the torpedoes, although IIRC the quality of the torpedoes themselves were only one part of the problem for the Americans, the other part was that their torpedo bombers were too...

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

The reason why aircraft carriers have ruled the seas since WWII is that seagoing ships are vulnerable to torpedoes.

Before the carrier battles in the Pacific, the rationale for building bigger...

What most people do not understand is that it is illegal to use someone else's intellectual property without permission, even if you do not make a profit from it.

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

Interesting ideas SJ. I suggest we call it the 'battle cruiser' mod idea, after this thread's initial topic.

Edit : and make it Neo Standard ++ so we can have more intermediate ship sizes.

Hello, welcome to the forum.

I haven't seen this topic before. It's been mentioned before, but never in a dedicated thread.

Re: Is "BattleCruiser" a relative size? -- discussion

Sure. Every hull size has its own cost, which in standard SEIV is directly proportional to its size. You can tweak this to be proportional to the size squared or some such progression to make big...

There was an old Megatraveller campaign called "The Flaming Eye", in which you passed yourself off as a free trader to learn more about - and eventually destroy - a powerful band of pirates.

Re: POLL: Ratings (and how you do them)

I just did a test (which involved giving Geo 5 stars, which he deserves). There is no way, or at least no easy way, to change or remove a rating once you've given it.

I think I'll be more careful...

Re: POLL: Ratings (and how you do them)

Yes, it would. But there is a distance problem. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif
