yeah, but all the distances in SGU are screwed up... like i said a few pages back: any Stargate in both the Milky Way and Pegasus can reach any other stargate in their respective galaxies... so why only in SGU do they have to "get in range" of gates? by extension, the other side of the universe could just be a few galaxies over...
you know, the manual says the Kol is "a pure bred battleship with many direct combat abilities"... um... GRG is one and Flak Burst is only half because it only affects SC... AF and Finest Hour only apply to the ship itself (sure, slightly higher dps and splash damage but meh...)

good thing too, we might have had to kill them... or worse [e digicons]:borg:[/e]

yeah, i like that idea... its one thing Sins is missing: there is no feel to the Distances you are playing... the Celestial Bodies (i think) and definitly the Distant Stars mods have UCGW's call Deep Space Sectors that are just big empty grav wells... i think those would be better than mag clouds (or at least a mix...) so you can put some SB's down... i mean, i dont use the TEC ship building upgrade siply because its just as easy to put 2 frig factories on a nearby planet...</

The main things is the total dps of the flak frig is cut in half because only 50% of the guns can fire... test it yourself... other people have and have come to this conclusion so...

[quote who="Draakjacht" reply="1850" id="2498219"]I understand the idea of taxing junk food, but not essentials, and I guess the split is largely considered to be ingredients like sugar, but don't we have better things to do? In America, they're looking to do two things: 1) Bypass the 2nd amendment and ban guns 2)Tax food Both will get you shot. So my thought is 'good idea to leave it alone?' [/quote] well, either they'll shoot you with
its not the predictability... for instance the whole recharging in the sun thing was a really nice touch that i only got 5 mins before it happened... though that could be because instead of fixing problems, they are all sitting around whining at how woesome their lives are... fucking pussies... its reality, get with it thats the problem most people have with the show, its LAME, to put it bluntly, its like some shitty soap opera but with less pregnancy and cheating and more "omg im so

i suppose it was a good idea to have a place in the map that is entirely dead... like completely unuseful etc... but in this case it sucks and i doubt the devs will do anything about it... im not even sure if they can... mag clouds mag be indistinguishable from other UCGW's so it may not even be possible for trade routes to jump JUST mag clouds... here's hoping

you know in Australia there is a big battle between the Tax Office and this guy because in Aus bread etc isnt taxed but cookies etc are... dont ask me why... anyway, there is a court case going on now trying to detemine if this cracker looking thing is really a cracker or a bread... if the court finds its a cracker, the guy who imports and sells it has to give the government like $85,000 in withheld taxes... gotta love what the gov does with our money hey ;)
and, if you are feeling creative you can build a galaxy forge map that heavily favours your friend(s) over yourself... sorta like a manual handicap... yeah, its work, but it could be fun

they really should jump magnetic clouds... seeing as you cant put starbases in those grav wells it becomes rather annoying...
Sins Forums
Sometimes i dont understand the Animal Cracker. Its sweet, which sugggests cookie, yet cracks like a cracker...
it also helps prioritise targets slightly... usually seige frigates cluster together when seiging a planet, so leaving a bunch of fighters on hold position near those seige frigs will have the fighters target the seige's before, say, LRF or other fighters...

are you guys thinking about making more custom models for the ships? i really like the mod but some of the models are painful to look at... sorry to be so blunt...
i remember a time when people barely considered the Sova a cap let alone a useful cap =P my how the times change
[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="324" id="2496868"]Perhaps... I don't know... I understand your point, but I think that as time goes on, carrier rushes will be more and more easily countered, thus reducing the need to kill their bombing ability. [/quote] of course, but then, late game when DC's are brought out, how useful will a carrier's bombing damage really be against upgraded planets? maybe take a few more seconds off a seige's length...? anyway, lets wor
Diplomacy IS bringing a "Faster" speed setting, as well as a "Vicious" AI difficulty level, though im not sure if that will make it smarter or just increase the resource income etc (i.e. cheating) also, im pretty sure Entrenchment is a little faster than Vanilla Sins, and Mods make it even faster... as mentioned above, Distant Stars is a mod that speeds up the game and really, the extra fortifications dont slow the game down, only battles, which arent so much slowed down as prolonged,
fair enough, anyway, i think its worthwhile... it would discourage the constant use of it as a starting cap and people abusing powerful SC early game... simply because they wont be able to bombard planets anymore...
Sins Forums
there are other times too when there will be absolutely no reason why the optimum trade route wont go one planet longer... i once had a big long map where the optimum trade lane went almost in a figure 8 shape, but for some reason it stops 2 planets short of the nearest included planet instead of one which makes more sense...
Sins Forums
yep, so dont leave town again ;)
im pretty sure they have 3 lasers... just like all caps have 3 weapons (i think) but im sure we can add a '5th ability' that acts much like flak weaponry... ive seen it in others mods so im fairly certain its possible... as for the weapon slots etc youve been talking about, getting rid of the planet bombardment weapon would make space for it
fair enough, i like the idea of a more defined combat triangle, atm the lines are rather fuzzy... so you are saying the DC anti SC weaponry will affect larger ships like LRF's also? also, an idea i saw on another thread was to remove the Carrier Caps planet bombardment ability and instead add an Anti SC ability or weapon type or whatever works.

hey, in the jewish faith, you cant have 2 naked bodies touching... so you have a sheet with a hole in the bottom and have sex that way... =P but like... all the people who get in a huff when young children (like... 14 years or there abouts) are exposed to sex... so what? its a natural part of life, get over it...
