Re: Hey check this out

next thing you know the computer will be trying to ship your *** out to a reservation. (At least you'll be able to rip it off with casinos in another hundred years)

Re: Fighters are now unbalanced

If regular (non-point defense) mounts are having a rough time killing fighters then I say, about time. It didn't make much sense having point defense if every other battery on a ship was just about...

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

pheonix - It is not a bug, just a big *** oversight. Maybe you care to "balance" the game by keeping the rules as such, but it shouldn't be hardcoded.

Once more, it is preposterous that a race...

Re: Thoughts on planet defenses

One thing that is weird. If you want to launch satellites to defend your planet be carefull. First launch in tactical. If you already have deployed the sats or deploy them all at once in tactical,...

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

"If you have "partial" damage to your hull, and have shields regenerated, that partial damage will come out of the hull and go into the shields."

Ouch, that is a little buggy, but understandable...

The Ampliture

Has anybody read a series from Alan Dean Foster a while back that that revolved around a struggle invloving the Ampliture vs. the Weave? For those that haven't, the Weave was a coalition of Free...

Re: Does ancient race take a little fun out of the game?

Maybe a pluasible explanation is that they are a race descended from a slave settlement of an ancient race. An ancient war/plague or whatever knocked out their master race. They have retained the...

Re: Sick new facility idea

Re: Question for those who were/are in the armed services...

Armored Cavalry has a different TOE as well. 8 vehicles (4 M-3 Bradleys, 4 M-1's) per platoon(plus some infantry). I think 4 platoons per troop and like 4 troops per squadron, which ties into a...

Re: And now for something Totally off topic :)

I dig a lot of military sci-fi, David Weber (HH), Eric Flint (Belisarius series & 1632), SM Stirling (The General Series w/ Dave Drake).

If any of you want to try out the newest, most interesting...

Re: Fighter group size

If you have shields on your fighters, then smaller Groups may help. Damage applied to your Groups to one fighters shield then to the fighters themselves. If there is enough extra damage to destroy...

Re: Life is cheap!

A few points here:

1) While maybe not completely realistic, I think the rates of growth allow for noticable expansion during the game while still requiring a player to defend his population base....

Re: Lookin for a 3d program

Re: A Poll on \"Supplies, Ammo, Fuel and Energy\"

I would say that if you want to have both supplies and ammo then firing energy weapons should use some regular supplies (which are primarily representing fuel). Nothing's for free, so says the 1st...
