Overrider there are already five Rebels, I know that you were here before the others but is it possible that you could play for the Pirates or Feds or go independant or something? If not some of the new Rebels need to go to another gov.

if you think this is over powered look at the improvements over the Argosy with the Rebel Desroyer. and read the description of the Rebel Destroyer in the game. it says that it wasnt that good because it was a freighter at heart. the Kestrel was always a Combat ship at heart so the Rebel Warbird should be much better than a Destroyer.

ok i get 600M for my fleet right? and i cant spend more than 200M on one type of ship right?
No, you get 800M for the entire Rebellion, and as far as I know there is no limit to concentrating in one class, just don't be too unreasonable.

Cruiser Class II Speed: 150 Accel: ** Turn: * Shields: 1000 Armor: 100 Fuel: 4 Jumps Mass: 1,000 Cost: 12,810,000 Credits Armament: Four proton bolt turrets, four neutron blasters, two torpedo launchers; fourteen torpedoes, one patrol ship bay; four patrol ships, one gunboat bay; two gunboats, one particle beam.
This ship is implemented during the game I believe after the Particle Beam missions but I could be wrong. Regardless it is in the standard EV Scenario (take a look with ResEdit) but Skyblade seems to have left it out. I am pretty sure David Arthur posted something about it... do a search and I am sure you will find it.

Overrider: There are already 5-6 Rebels, so you really should join another faction so that the webstory in not unbalanced. Okay?
Originally posted by Ne Demord Jamais: **General Rak, what is the Confederation Cruisers CUP-I? **
The Confederation CUP-I is the upgraded cruiser mentioned after the particle beam mission string. The cruisers are implemented through the përs resource, as confirmed by David Arthur in a previous thread. They are similar to the stock cruiser except with 1000 shields, a gunboat bay and two gunboats, and particle beam.

Grr! For the umpteenth time, I need mass figures to calculate warship prices!!!

Here is the military and budget statistics for the Olympian Solidarity at the beginning of the webstory:
Olympian Solidarity Budget: 300M Credits
34 Athenas: 102.68M Credits 20 Kestrels: 93.8M Credits 15 Corvettes: 29.55M Credits 50 Rapiers: 11.9M Credits 50 Lightnings: 14M Credits
Total Cost: 251.93M Credits
Remaining Budget: 48.07M Credits
(I used GR's calculations for the ship prices, rather than Skyblade's (inaccurate) stats on the EVW page)

HELLO!!! i need a price on my warbird befor i can spend all my $$$!
General Rak will get around to it, don't worry; apparently some people still have this obsolete thing called "sleep".
Wait.... When I get my startout fleet, do I have to pay for that? Do I also have to pay for the startout unique ship?
Here's my re-done fleet. Hopefully I got the prices right...
Lethe 7th Fleet 15 Kestrels - one upgraded Red October Flagship 40 Corvettes 15 Argosies 55 Rapiers

Originally posted by U.E. Admiral: **oops sorry:) heh heh mass: 230 tons **
No problem - here is the cost:
4.76M
Also, when is the webstory going to begin? Should we begin right this instant or what?
Originally posted by Captain Carnotaur: Wait.... When I get my startout fleet, do I have to pay for that?
Sortof. You get 300M to spend on building the Lethe military before the webstory begins. Your fleet must be derived from that 300M.
Originally posted by Captain Carnotaur: Do I also have to pay for the startout unique ship?
No.
Originally posted by Captain Carnotaur: **15 Kestrels 40 Corvettes 15 Argosies 55 Rapiers **
Kestrels = 70.35M Corvettes = 78.8M Argosies = 14.73M Rapiers = 13.09M
Total = 176.97M
So there is 123.03M left for other fleets and other spending...
Rak, it seems as though you're doing a fine job taking care of things. I'll leave you in complete control of the webstory if you so prefer (since Mac seems abscent).

Thank you for your vote of confidence, Skyblade. I suppose I can take on Mac's duties since he seems to have disappeared.
