Man, we were killing you guys and you ended up beating Dreden right before the reinforcements came.
And I remember the whole hypergate fiasco. That was... a fiasco.

lol I admit my hypergate idea about the holographic projections was slightly wacked...if thats the fiasco you're addressing. Yeah, we looked at the map and basically realized we were screwed because that rebel command guy screwed up the empire before I took over. Then I realized that grundy's and vice admiral's fleets were both within 2 turns of your capital. and I stayed back to delay the the 3 or 4 or so fleets converging on my capital. Yeah those were the days. It was fun. Except after we won, macavenger and skyblade and a few others wouldn't accept the fact that we won. Its all good though.
I think I'll take a moment to go back in time to look at the BFS III posts for memory's sake. ------------------ Go Red Sox, Go Bruins, Go Celtics, Go Patriots.

The flagship, as stated, is a one of a kind. Any reproductions amde of it, which I cant do myself to begin with, would have lower stats.

I know it's one of a kind. It's still unreasonable. Remember, in this time period we want a lack of quality, not a lack of quantity. Maybe cut down the shields some?

The shields are only 800 more than a fed frigate. Hardly unreasonable.
Originally posted by RMA: **The shields are only 800 more than a fed frigate. Hardly unreasonable.
um according to this in Ipvicus's post:
Confederate Frigate Predecessor (Luke, if you want to change this let me know and we'll talk about it) Speed: 150 AU/h Accel: 160 Turn: 60Ā°/sec Shields: 230u Charge: 0.31u/sec Armor: 50u
this is the fed frigate, with a shield of 230 (not sure what the u means) therefore, your flagship has 2770 more shields, which is obviously ridiculous. This is unless that frigate really has 2300 instead of 230 shields. but it sure looks like 230 to me. Yeah, same goes for your flagship's armor.

You're getting confused. The fed frigate has 2300 shields, in resedit. I always state my figures like that, since weapons always are. It just makes it confusing stating stats as they're shown ingame, since weapons are always shown in resedit format.. And it seems I was wrong. It's only 700 shields difference.
Kyle, unless you have something worked out with Luke you won't be able to have Frigates or Mantas. Though you can develop your own light warship if you would like.

lol my mistake then. No idea what the 230u really meant.
RMA: Oh, sorry. I forgot you used ResEdit stats.
Kyle: What exactly is your character?
Umm... can someone post a map? lol I can't seem to get my systems straight. And I'm still discussing the details of my fleet with Ipvicus, whose enormous fleet destroyed Dreden way back when in BFS III. I'll be up against him this time then.
And my character, just basically Admiral Kyle. Regent of northern Milky Way space (this includes something like Yemurro, Levo, Matar, and something else I forget.
Hey, I'm working on a map of our universe, so expect that in a few days.
Is it all right if my part of the story isn't character driven? I really suck at that stuff. Oh, and Ipvicus, I can't remember whether you ok'd my Light Freighter/Carrier. I think you did but I'm not sure.
What's the current status of our players, like what systems go to who, so I can put those on the map.
------------------ what's this? i was just fighting a 'fed cruiser in Tau Ceti and now what the hell happened? i'm in this "Eltor" System... damn wormholes
I already have a map.

Unreal, I have no idea what you are talking about, but I do know that station looks pretty ridiculous.
I think I'm going to start trying to get those fleet numbers decided today or tomorrow. Post what ship classes you would like to have, and the % of each you would like composing your fleet in the topic and I'll assign the fleet numbers.
Im going to bulid it a little in the game. its going to cost 500M Cr. It will take me awhile to get that cash.
I want some fighters, some freighters and one medium warship. 40% Fighters 49% Freighters 1% Medium warship if thats not too much trouble. Also my flag ship: Heavy Warship: Omega Carrier (Thats just a name. No fighters! Untill much later like 8th page or so when i get it upgraded for 5M credits) Event Horizon: Sheilds 200 Armor 50 Special Energy: 50 (Regen: 10 Per page) Weapons: 2 Laser Turrets 50 Torps 5 Launchers Upgrades: Light Reactor (Ups Sheild Regen time 4 Per post) Charon Booster (Ups the damage of Lazer weapons 20 Resedit Damage)

Ipvicus, do you have a guess as to what time this will start, or are you still working out logistics?

The never released Galactic Scourge for EVO had the Vulture replaced by another relic, the Warbird.
During the early days of exploration the Jupiter Shipbuilders Inc. was primary ship manufacturer. The JMC Warbird was introduced during the Colony Wars in 2105. The frontal assaults with Halibut and Condor back-up was ledgendary - the war was over within a year. The Warbird fell out of favor as technology advanced. Particularly making the efficient, yet turret-blocking solar panels obsolete. A few can still used on the fringes for shipping and defense. This vessel appears well preserved and is a bargain for the price.
The values here were approximate as they would have been adjusted using simulation data. Also, this is ship was ment to stretch the given technology as much as possible. This would make it terribly expensive, rare, and unreliable. Due to the solar panels the turrets can only fire in the front and rear quarters. Finally these would be the minimally refitted version, not the original.

Okay guys, I'de really like to start the story next monday or tuesday... but I can't do that until everyone posts their government info and the ship classes that they want their fleets to be made up of. Just post a brief explanation of your government, it's political system/military technology/diplomatic relationships then what percent of each ship class you would like your fleets made up of. For example:
25% Catamaran Warships, 40% Rapiers, 25% Bear-Class Carriers, 5% Warbirds, 5% Scoutships
I'll be assigning every faction a number of additional freighters and civillian craft as well.
Well, for me, 6 times as many Halibuts as I have Pirate Carriers. Plus 6 for my flagship. A few more Halibuts flying about for base defence maybe. Fairly simple fleet composition for me.
30% Frigate 25% Condor 25% Warbird 20% Manta
Flagship: Upgraded Frigate, details later.
