Default Re: A pirates life for me...

(sorry about the arrows in funny places, I edited this message in notepad so the margins are probably wrong )

>Well, easy to fix the scanners. +1 range for everybody!
I thought of that as a possibility, but noted that if LRS III got 6 range then you could park a ship with one in the middle of the system and scan the entire system, and thought you might not want that to happen, so I didn't mention it

>Your attack fleets will likely be very different from your defense fleets!
This will make for a very fun strategic game... Sure you're attacking me with APB's, but that doesn't necessarily mean you'll be defending your planets with them!

>Uhm, no, those are classic SE4 weapons... I may have tweaked the name to >sound more realistic, but it is basically the same thing as unmodded.
Yeah, I know it does the same thing, I just like the new name

Have no idea what you're talking about what only latest mount report?

That might mean you'll have to twiddle with some of the intel ops and (if you gave them the Resusmart bombs - don't want Industrial Sabotage or Puppet Political Parties to take one of those out! (PvK are you listening?)

Doesn't sound quite fair - I know Pirates are at a disadvantage, but giving them basically a permanently cloaked ship that can build other ships is essentially making it impossible for them to lose!

>I have two copies of the Mental Shredder, one for weapon platforms and one for ships/bases...
>I don't see the problem you are referring to.
Oh, must not have seen the can be mounted on field... always easy to miss one
