New Research: Confederation Cruiser Upgrade Program (Will replace Patrol Ships with Catapults, 1 day.)
------------------ Ave Cadet, Imperatur Civitum Americae Unitas! (url="http://"http://www.catholic-cadet.com")Catholic Cadet: Apologetics and Evangelization(/url)
When we research something like a new class of Corvett wink wink... we have to upgrade our whole fleet to that class right? Do we assign our own price for the fleets upgrade? Help me out here. I'm really bad at this research stuff.
------------------ (url="http://"http://speculation_plug.home.insightbb.com")The Speculation Plug is here!!(/url)
Oh, i did miss that upgrade. The new Confed Cruiser price is 22M. 20M - 2.8M(patrol ships) = 17.2M 17.2 + 4.8M(Catapults) = 22M
Swithich, If you design a new class of corvette(such as taking the vette and adding more missiles or something like that), you dont have to upgrade the fleet, just give it a new name, and dont modify ships too often. It can get confusing. I dont want 86 different corvette mods running around.
To upgrade existing Corvettes would cost you the price of the extra missiles multiplied by the number of corvettes you're upgrading. Usually it's best to leave the pricing to a mod if you're new. All us Mods have a different pricing system for ships.

Understood Admiral.

1: Shield Burner: This is a really cool idea. From what i can see it's fine. It makes fightercraft really strong though... I'd like to limit it's effects to warships Corvette size and larger. Smaller vessels would benefit from it far too much. (2)
2: Salvo Javelin Thingy: Yikes... I dont think i understand this entirly, but what i think i understand is that this bugger is... really... really strong... This is pending and you may research it, but if possible i'd like to get a clearer explaination from you over AIM or IRC... I'm on AIM more, so that'd be an easier place to catch me. (3)
3: Cold Carrier: I think the carrier is too fast for a carrier type vessel despite it's design and weak fighters. Too much fuel. Even if it was only used as a Shield Burner's ammo, it's too much. 6 Jumps would be good while maintaining a good range and still having enough to make use of your shield burner. I do not understand the Salvo Javelin thingy, so i cant really moderate on this ship's usage of them. (4)
1: Rats I thought I snuck that through (Joking, of course but I didn't mind the delay in the least, I just found the time to check for responses).
2: I forgot to mention that I didn't believe that smaller fighters could sustain this. I was going to use it on Rapiers and larger vessels (Argosies, Corvettes etc.). At the very least I'd like to use it on Argosies and larger vessels but I'd like to have an increased shield recharge amount without my Rapiers.
3: I'll try to ambush you next time I find the time.
4: I forgot to about speed entirely, my mistake. I'd be willing to decrease speed to 220 and acceleration to the same. I reduced the armor on the base ship hinting at the cheap materials and hence increased acceleration and turning. I'm willing to decrease the fuel to perhaps 8 jumps, 12 was undoubtedly unreasonable. I think that this ship was a bad idea and I might replace it with a gunboat design.
Thank you for looking over that mess of nonsense I wrote. I plead temporary (questionable) insanity.

I forgot Argosies. You may use the burner on them too.
Switith, change the designs for the Civilian Assualt Frigate to have only 4 Neutron turrets, and 3 Neutron cannons. This should satisfy everyone. The price can then be lowered, U.E. Admiral can figure that out for us. The missile and torpedo loads will stay the same, and I will change the name to Civillain Missile Cruiser. Maybe the Assualt Frigate can be a joint operation later on...

Good stuff, will do
You dont have Neutron technology.

We're sub contracting for the Confederates.
Since when did I give you permission to use Neutron technology? ------------------ This is a signature. About something. Yes, something. Something important. I think.

But that doesn't mean Consul Bob gave you the plans for his newest piece of technology. Where is this mentioned?
------------------ ... Of course, I could be wrong...

I hereby resign as story mod. I have lost my will to care. I am not one to give up like this, maybe it's just that the day's events have worn me... Whatever, i give up. Research all the USOIDs you want people. This is as good as a bar. No rules, no nothing.
Jimbob, the floor is yours. May the story need little to no moderation.
Wouldn't Taskforce Renmei have had to cross Jadzian territory (Arrakis was conquered by the Jadzians) to get to Barnard's Star? Well, the Jadzian attack fleet isn't actually in Arrakis, I suppose.
I suppose Cheezy's fleet one system away isn't much of a deterrent. They simply don't have the numbers for that kind of fight. Same for nfreader in Antares, unless he get's his fleet money now. And with both Jimbob and Consul Bob in Propus, conveniently out of reach of Barnard, spl_cadet will go mostly unassailed for some time.
Is Halibane still in Zigra? If they've moved, they could hit Polaris, and, in theory, block the Confederates 'Bob from reaching Barnard in time.
U.E. Admiral: I hearby resign...
spl_cadet: I had an agreement with the Jadzians...
That rather changes things...
Consul Bob: Zenith Battleship... Confederate Doomstar... Mod Cruiser Bays... Ultra Super Turreted Particle Death Laser...

I had an agreement with the Jadzians for free travel through their systems.
oops....I meant to say proton blasters, or whatever the blue ones are called, I'm sorry for the terrible mistake on my part. BTW: WTH HAPPENED WHILE I WAS GONE TODAY??
Sincerely, Cheezy_Cracker
spl_cadet has a powerful fleet attacking New Sahara in Barnard, U.E. Admiral just resigned as moderator, and Consul Bob thinks he's attained l33t webgamer powers.
