Ok not really part of this thread, but I am hijacking it.

After reading the 31 posts that this generated, it appears to me that all of the information presented here has already been discussed at length here and the important points are captured in the FAQ or one of the other stickified threads. I would suggest forum searching before thread hijacking.
The Dubious Strategy Guide has a full discussion of armor as well as a PPB vs other weapon discussion.

I apoligize for the thread hijacking. I honestly thought it was done. I was tring to avoid starting a new topic. Also I did read the stickies but didn't see where they specificly addressed my question. But there is a lot there so I more then likely missed it.
As far as the dubious straegy guide goes. That is a long read. I haven't read it all yet.

My fav is massive repulsor beams. Using a bunch of those will push back invasion forces, leaving you able to pick ships off in reasonable amounts.

Re: 4200 Damage out to range 8!
There is nothing wrong at all with starting a new thread.
There is also nothing wrong with old topics being rediscussed by new members. This is a discussion forum, afterall.

Besides, it keeps us from yelling 'RTM' and driving the newbie's away.

I fart 7.6 Million points of damage, so I don't know what you all are so impressed by.

Re: 4200 Damage out to range 8!
One of the best things in this forum (perhaps the best) is that everybody are so civilized and tolerant toward each others. In many other forums, the first answer(s) would have been RTFM for ten frist posters. I guess troll doesnt' find anything to eat here...

Re: 4200 Damage out to range 8!
The thing is we all just love to talk about this game even if the topics are old. There is nothing like swapping good strategies every once in while with new members. Besides it helps us all out from time to time.
What are the hot key's again for return carage in the game log window?

Read the F-word Manual. In other words, not the nicest reply the Internet has ever seen.  |

Re: 4200 Damage out to range 8!
Whoa. I didn't say anything of the sort (rtfm). I just thought it was poor nettiquite to simply hijack a thread when someone had a question. I even posted a relevent link with lots of good info, far to much to retype. I simply suggested searching the forum before hijacking a thread. Maybe it was still too harsh. I still don't think there is ever a good reason to hijack a thread. New posts don't bother me even if they are about much-discussed material and I welcome and help the newbies as much as anyone. If I see an unanswered question [not easy to find one unanswered for long], I'll answer it if I can.
