HCSN- Today scientists on Earth released a statement saying that the advanced scanner jamming device found on the pirate argosies is not what caused the scan block. It was a mysterious blocking factor that was probably emenating from the Pelagon system.
"Signal tot he rest of the fleet that well will be heading out to NGC-1701 in 5 mins, also inform thenm to jump out of hyper space as close to the center of the system ass possible, I want this Planet under our control ASAP!" Tycho told communication officer Renton.
five mins later Tycho's fleet jumps out of the Turin system.

Precisely. Of course, you can go against High Command of you like Tycho Maudd, but don't expect to live long.

You bringing back the flak turret, eh? It would be VERY useful against the aliens. But don't you have to announce it on the 2nd page?
Also, I really think you should upgrade the pirate Kestrels specs, and increase the SuperKestrel's manueverability. Otherwise, the pirates only have crappy weapons.

No, I simply said that you could only invent a maximum of one weapon and one ship per each topic page.
Yeap, the flak turret is back.

Alright, fine...But please post such comments under the "players wanted" topic.

(quote)Originally posted awhile ago by General Rak: ** I was just examining the pirate ships, and realized how weak they are in comparison to the alien/human ships. One of the main changes I was think of is giving the SuperKestrel amazing manueverability. That would equalize its low shields. Also upgrading the kestrel to modified class D specifications. Here are the updated stats-
Ship Name: Atinoda Kestrel-D Cost: 10.00 million credits
Speed: 225 Accel: Average Turn: Average Shields: 400 Armor: 200 Guns: Maximum of 6 Turrets: Maximum of 4 Space: 0 tons Cargo: 80 tons Fuel: 7 jumps Length: 80 m Mass: 230 tons Crew: 196
Standard weapons: 2 Torpedo Launcher + 50 Torpedos 2 Missile Racks + 10 Missiles 4 Proton Turrets 2 Lightning Fighters-Bombers 1 Flare Rack + 50 Flares 1 Missile Jammer ****(/quote)
"Sir," a young officer reported, "we've just received the first reports of the flak turret eperiements and tests."
"Oh?" Admiral Skyblade said with curiosity.
"Back on earth, Roberto Nelson had a Destroyer M5 outfitted with four of the experimental flak turrets. We used three old Confederation Frigates as test vessels, and sent the re-outfitted Destroyer after them."
"How'd it go?" Skyblade asked swiftly.
"Perfect, amazingly well if you ask me. Although the flak turrets only did a fair job against shields, it ripped the frigates to shreds once the shields had been decimated. In Nelson's own words, he stated he had never seen such a fine weapon take care of armor to quickly."
"That is very good news," Skyblade said, pacing around his quarters. "If Nelson agrees, I want the weapon put into production soon. I also want a new Destroyer M6 designed to carry four of these new turrets. They would be extremely dangerous against the alien heavy fighters; atleast, I hope."
"Sir?" asked a young officer. "Yes?" Rak replied. "Remember that weapon you designed, the flak turret. Well, it is currently undergoing trials. It owns armour. It is also being built into a new design, the destroyer M6." "Good, record a memo: New flak turret being fielded, will destroy alien armour advantage. Be sure to get atleast 15 Destroyer M6, I designed the Flak Turret anyhow. End memo. Dismissed"
(Rak- Just remember that I'm in charge of distributing ships, so I can't gurantee you'll end up with sixteen Destroyer M6 gunships.)

================
Sa'amo Vaten sent a transmission to Grunadulater, Pirate President. "Sir?" asked Admiral Vaten. "The Rapier has not been proving as effective as we'd like it to." Vaten was proving to be a very capable commander, even if he was only 24 years old. He was insubordinate, but that was kind of to be expected among pirates. However, he had a very good sense of tactics, and was not afraid to use unorthodox strategies to defeat the enemy.
"Oh?" replied Grunadulater. "What do you have in mind to improve it?"
"Well, the Rapier is supposed to be a dedicated antiship platform, not meant for dogfights. However, its missiles clearly are inferior to torpedoes, and its shields do not stand up to heavy capital ships' turrets. I propose modifying the Rapier so that is more suited to its original role. The Lightning can handle any starfighters that comes its way, as can the Corvettes."
"I see what you mean. Give me some time to think. You will hear from me about this soon."
I will post my modification on the New Ships page as soon as Grunadulater agrees.

You can only have 1 superkestrel. I would also advise getting at least 20 Kestrels.

His numbers are right, grunadulater bought more ships for him. Please take any further such disputes to the players needed topic.

Ah-Ha, my bad :frown:
sorry.mine is 302 yours is 463.ok? ------------ do we get to name planets?how much money do we get per post? ------------ sure.may i make some suggestions?the shields should be much much higher and with less guns.more detection and slower.also, lots and lots of missiles and heavy rockets.that would make it perfect for defending.i will also along with a fleet commander apoint you ship desighner if you want(we could get someone else to do the drawings and stuff.) ------------ where is the new map. remember, my fleet moved into the unexplored aaae system.
------------------ I bet there darn tasty to.
