I thought cadet could have been charged with "over-doing it" with the Battle Fortress ... but, Geez!!! If that Titan is as advanced as Azdara stated it, it would represent an entire 600MM fleet all by itself. Wow!
Mac, I like the Pirate "SHIPYARD" look. Cool!

No, I'm not. (j/k)

Jager - the list is in no particular order, though I think I put the leaders at the top.

Possibly. Or, we could go with the stats Skyblade gave us and call it about 60 million. I think Skyblade forgot to include the cost of the fighters when he gave us the price estimate.

Alrighty, I'll leave it that way.

I've been playing Starcraft lately, so I haven't been around here much. (Clears throat) Yes, there seems to be a lot of things to discuss as of late...
Originally posted by Azdara: This ship is extremely advanced, and has highly advanced sensory equiptment, powerful and efficient engines, massive size(the reason for "Titan"), a innovative targeting system, fighters, a practically indestructable hull, "smart shields" and many more innovations. This ship is roughly....I'd say about 10 times the size of an Athena Battle Gunship. While the carrier will be bigger, this is the ship that most Dreden players will want to use as their capital ship... (more blahing about new ship)
(BTW- There's a $hitload of bad grammer in there) You do realize that you are inferior to the HC and Alien governments, do you not? And thus, you should have ships with the capabilities of an inferior government. You are an upspringing rebellion that has been been recently formed, which is why it surprises me that Mac let you have your own ships at all. He has given you a foot, you've taken a mile. You seem to have gotten it into your head that we are all equal. Let me clarify: The Dreden is a small faction that is there to stand side by side the HC as they get their a$$es whipped. In comparison to the plane we live on, you are the Northern Alliance. The United States (HC) has plans. "If the NA doesn't want to help, that's fine. If they do, great." (excerpt from one of Powell's numerous press confrences) The only difference is that the US is going to put the smackdown on the Tali's and Osama, but the Dreden's gonna' get beaten like 'dey stole somethin'!

Yes! All the little PCs now have a prophet to stand up against the evil Skyblade! Let the peasents rejoice!

Mac, can you increase the size of the sentarus galaxy map. It's too small.

Whew. After reading through the last 130 posts, I conclude that nothing has happened.
Let's see... Lord Asriel -- Sauron Spl_cadet -- Orion Kaptain Karl -- El Santo? Jager -- Darven?
If it's wrong, somebody tell me.

Nope. Not starting at darvin. or something.
I'm going to be starting at the EL SANTO system.
My fleet will consist of: 1 Battlefortress 210,000,000 (P.F.F.S. Armagettin . Dont ask.Flag Ship Of my fleet.) 1 Halberd: 20,000,000 5 Corvette: 10,000,000 100 Starscreamer: 150,000,000 210 Lancer: 210,000,000 Total: 600,000,000
One Question How do battles work when atacking planets? Like lets say some one atacks sol. How would it work if there wasn't any fleets in the system. Just wondering. Not a chance in Hll (are we aloud to say hel) we are going to atack sol though.

By whom?
Seriously, I had a big long rant typed up, but trusty old Ethel froze again! I lost it all... The main thesis was about our ship situation. Basically, I said a bunch a' stuff about how the HC, and all humans for that matter, are technologically (sp) behind the Aliens. But the Aliens have 8 ships, and the HC has 15! There. Rant summed up in 2 sentances.
Originally posted by Mr. Moose: That could be bad...
Why would not having to worry about the Battlefortress be bad? Trust me, you won't have to.
Originally posted by Cyber-Dragon: Whats a fleet update?
That's where the government leader buys more ships and hands them out to his fleet commanders as he thinks best.
Originally posted by rebel council: Mac, can you increase the size of the sentarus galaxy map. It's too small.
So you want it back the way it was? Alright, I can do that. Maybe I'll look into increasing the Milky Way to match instead.
Originally posted by rebel council: Does anyone know where in the bloody heck in Shade?
Playing RoC III on the EVO board. I sent him an email earlier today asking for some Alien stats so I can post your fleets. Hopefully I'll hear from him overnight.

For attacking regular planets, pick out a reasonable defense fleet of ~50,000,000 and fight it, ingle post battles allowed. When attacking a Core World, the defense fleet is larger (see rules) and must be fought over multiple posts. The assumption is that the defense fleet of a larger world would hold out longer, have a better chance of defeating the attackers, and give more time for friendly fleets to respond. You're certainly right about not attacking SOl, though.
Oh, and you are allowed to swear here, as long as it isn't excessive. Karmaslaps for swearing are only given for repeated, extreme, and usually unnecessary swearing.

I can answer with one. The humans aren't tactically fossilized like the Aliens.
Also, Pirates, I need a fleet number for Jager before I can post his fleet... and Asriel, if you assign that, why don't you give me one for KK while you're at it.
KK's 19th Pirate Fleet:
4 . . . Drakes . . . . . 60MM 100 . . Corvettes . . 100MM 90. . . Gunstars . . . 90MM 142 . . Lancers . . . 142MM
Total . . . . . . . . . . . 600MM
Don't position Jager or KK on the map "yet," Mac. You would not believe how many e-mails are flying back and forth about fleet placement. We will work it out soon and let you know.

Okay, before I list all of my defense, I would like you to do one thing, you can either jump off a bridge, jump off a building, kill yourself, drop dead, or go jump under one of the bombs being dropped in Afghanistan. In the statment above, you insulted myself and my intelligence. I feel it only appropriate that I do likewise to you. First of all, the grammar in that section isn't all that bad, and if you have ocular organs, which I am assuming you do, you will notice that I wasn't at home when I wrote that, was in a rush, and apologized for any mistakes etc. because I was in a rush. Secondly, It is not my job to analyse the way the galaxy works. I make what Skyblade tells me, and I make , and will continue to make ships to the best of my ability. When you think(this word might not have much meaning to you) about it, the Dreden technology would be far more advanced than the HC, because the Dreden technology uses the best of both worlds(both HC and Alien tech). Also, who said that I would help the HC? If you are part of the HC, I seriously doubt that my fleet will be of any service. If you will kindly look at the map, you will (hopefully) notice that the Dreden have a decent amount of systems, and aren't the tiny insurrection that you claim us to be. If you have a problem with my ships, please address that problem specifically, instead of making general comments that have no or very little fact to stand on.
Thank you very much.
About the Carrier, I'll start working on it as soon as possible, and if able to, I'll make an extra fighter.

Wow!
Who woulda thunk it? ... Aliens and Dreden (Azdara, Cyber-D is an Alien.) possessing "bad blood" and ill will toward each other. That sort of thing could ... start a war (or at least several skirmishes).
Maybe we should do a Plug-In ... No, I've got it! Let's do a Webstory about this thing. Whaddya say, people? (The only question is, "What do we call the webstory?" How about "Fight For The Galaxy" ... or, "Battle Of Sol?" Well -- something along those lines, anyway....)
(I know. I know. You are all amazed and delighted that I thought of such a thing ... all on my own, too. .. ;)..)
Its always been my understanding that the Dreden were a powefully technologically advanced race, I'm not sure when they left HC space, but they had some of the basis of our technology with them, and when they were able to successfully rebell in alien territory, they took from their technology as well.
After all, I've always thought of them as a rebellion much like that of the rebels in original EV, and the map would seem to support this idea. So all we are missing is a Carrier for the Dreden, and perhpas a few fleets? Doesn't sound half bad.
------------------ Apply When Wet
Thank you for your cynical humor, KK. As for Azdara- chill I was just pointing out in there that you had some problems with your logic. You pounced on me and gave me a flame. Their was no reason for that. And nowhere in there did I insult your artistic ability. In fact, I complemented you on it a couple posts back and said ou should look into graphics design as a career. Please, son't do that again, just ask if I was angry. When posting to you, I will (from now on) use :)s, ;)s, and the occasional :eek:. Most of all, I will refrain from any :ps, :Ds, or :rolleyes:s. Don't get mad, get glad. Hey, thats pretty catchy! I see a company motto comin' on... Hey! We could sell cheap, plastic lining for people to put in their garbage baskets so it won't stain the sides! We could make MI ลล ION ยง! Who's with me?
Actually, I think he was more irate about the fact that you insulted his intelligence, and your post did seem almost flame like, which is probably why he reacted as such, though he may have overreacted a bit himself.
