This file adds Puke's Parade of Victory fleet, 2 fleets from P&N, and the missing Eye Candy fleets.

Puke: What exactly is the purpose of your Parade of Victory formation?

------------------
It's not whether you win or lose that counts: it's how much pain you inflict along the way.

[Puke]

what the heck do you mean "whats the purpose"

It SPELLS my NAME for crying outloud, whats better than that?!

edit: well, I see where the confusion could be coming from, the spaces did not make it from the file into the forum. take a look at the text file attached. also, you have to give me some leighway, i only had 21 dots with which to spell a four letter word!

Ahh, I see. So basically, your formation has no tactical purpose, it only exists to serve your vanity...

edit: What do you mean only 21 dots? Can't you put more than 21 ships in a formation?

The formation has at least 29 slots. The compact formation, which I have used has the 29. Also Dark Wing has 26.

Do not know if yo can go over 29.

In encircled ground, devise stratagems;
In death ground, fight.

i guess thats just what the old formation editor program limits you to. id hate to make a formation by hand.. ugg.

[bearclaw]

Is there any way to choose which ships will be in each place? I've tried different things but it just doesn't seem to follow any pattern.

I think I'll drag this thread back to the top.

So, does anybody have any formations that they'd like to be added to this file?

Edit:
Hmm, guess I had better put a link to my file in here.
