[quote who="Theophantus" reply="106" id="2919109"]?????? What are these two talking about? What's happened to my post? It's been high-jacked(I looked it up on the Wiki). I thought I was a Geek, be Jesus. Can we talk about Something else now?[/quote] Depends on whether the Trek-wanking fanboy will concede he's wrong.
[quote who="louist" reply="5" id="2918936"]It's not the first 40k shooter, FWI. Look up Fire Warrior.[/quote] It is an unspoken rule amongst 40K gamers to consider Fire Warrior an abomination and an aberration. It never happened . Space Marine is also much higher quality anyways.
Hey guys, head on over to fanfiction.net and check out A Trader's Gambit , my new fanfic. I've posted up the prologue. You'll have to wait about a week for each new chapter. Also, I've enabled anonymous reviews, so go ahead and say what you think!

[quote who="psychoak" reply="104" id="2918879"]Except it's usually a range near Saturn, or Jupiter, which are indeed a few hours from Earth at such speeds. It's less than a light hour from the Sun to Jupiter, even Neptune is only four hours out. Pluto is way the hell out there, hence the use of "even" in my previous declaration.[/quote] I concede this point, because I double-checked the incident, and it was , in fact, from the orbit of Earth to a b
ZehDon, you've made me want to get ahold of the Crysis 1 games. Badly . As for Crysis 2, I'll admit that the thing that interested me most was a (the?) trailer, where the (ostensibly?) player character was shooting some kind of autocannon/HMG thing at a helicopter. But then I saw the W40K:Space Marine trailer that had the same thing with a 40K Space Marine, and had the bonus of being the first 40K shooter ever, and I never looked back. But that's more due t

@OP- no, there isn't an official novel for Sins. For the forseeable future, I rather doubt that there will be. That said, there are some excellent fanfics on the forums. [quote who="sareth01" reply="2" id="2918698"]Hmm seems like Ironclad should keep its promise on having an "in depth storyline" by bringing it to life in a book. I know I would buy it and it would be a great way to renew interest and sales in the game.[/quote] Perhaps they will release a shor
[quote who="psychoak" reply="102" id="2918694"]Even Pluto is only 13 light hours from the sun. Hours are what you're looking at for in system travel at sublight speeds. Impulse is also very fast compared to Star Wars tech sublight speeds. The significantly faster fighters only travel at rates in the hundreds and thousands of meters per second, Impulse speeds are in the millions of meters per second, 50% of lightspeed was already surpassed in TMP.[/quote] 1.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="100" id="2918563"]This typical trektard has a firm grasp on reality and is fully aware that Gene Roddenberry was just as bleeding stupid as George Lucas is. You need only watch The Motion Picture to be made painfully aware of his cerebral limitations. You are the definition of a rabid fan. Lucas gets blasted for his ridiculously subpar writing(and this is after his producers take a hatchet to all his idiotic names that were

[quote who="psychoak" reply="95" id="2918281"]On film statements: "She'll make point five past lightspeed. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself" "You know, that ship's saved my life quite a few times. She's the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy!" "Look, I want you to take her.

[quote who="psychoak" reply="85" id="2917885"]Yes, because as everyone knows, a brick falls faster than a feather! I don't usually recommend therapy on the internet, but you might should check yourself in, because you've seriously checked out here. There's an upper bound on the whole rabid fan syndrome, and it's way past the healthy point when you start trying to legitimize sound in space and butcher simple physics. <br

[quote who="Zeta1127" reply="35" id="2918001"]Homeworld, particularly the original, is so perfect for a movie, and now that the IP for it has returned to Hiigara, it could be possible.[/quote] THIS. This is something that would be awesome .

YES. All shall bow before the Xin.
[quote who="JA_394" reply="81" id="2917617"]And what does this have to do with Sins modding?[/quote] Nothing. It's a tangent that broke off due to the content of the thread. [quote who="Theophantus" reply="82" id="2917666"]So after 81 replies is someone, hopefully a Modder, going to create a non cannon, balanced against the stock races, Star Wars vs Star trek Mod for Sins of a Solar Empire? It seems to me there would be quite some interest in it, if it occured.[/quote
[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="79" id="2917606"]I'm not really trying to debate with you, I agree the Empire would win. But the thing is that is a pointless argument. Because authorial intent defines everything, the only reason the Empire would win is because George Lucas set his story in a more technologically advanced (weapons wide) universe. It would be like a modern army fighting a Roman legion. The modern army would win, but its not much of a victory, and doesn't doesn't prove
[quote who="JA_394" reply="19" id="2917006"]I guess you haven't heard that there will not be a "Sins 2?" Even if there is, I'm not getting my hopes up. Stardock won't put forth the effort. Plain and simple. End of discussion.[/quote] Well, for one I don't think that's ever been said. For two, of course Stardock won't put forth the effort. They're just the publishers. Ironclad is the developer. [quote who="Kitkun" reply="23

[quote who="NHD-151" reply="1553" id="2917359"]It was March 4 that he updated the screenies. he does the date in day-month-year format, not month-day-year. It's not a big mistake, but more screenshots would have been amazing.[/quote] Ah. I had assumed month-day-year, since that's how most clocks/calenders/what-have-you (to my great annoyance, ironically) work.

[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="22" id="2917082"]Yes - Hell yes. Under no circumstance (my opinion) should you watch Serenity before you watch firefly. Parts of the movie might ruin firefly for you.[/quote] Well, crap. I saw the movie before I even knew that the series had actually existed.
[quote who="a110" reply="75" id="2917023"]the ds ii was far smaller than an earth-sized planet, which star destroyers are parked above on a regular basis, and would thus have a much weaker gravity well. there is no reason for the engines/repulsorlifts to immediately fail and send the ship plunging into the equivalent of a moon's well, upon losing contact with the main bridge. as i said, imperial ships routinely orbit planets - hell, they're constructed in orbital shipyards -, and it&#
[quote who="a110" reply="71" id="2916915"]apologies, i mistyped i meant *in rotj, the ssd instantly lost control when the bridge was destroyed. that period of vulnerability could easily be exploited[/quote] Except that the Executor lost control due to being trapped in the DS2's gravity well. In any other situation, it would not instantly loose control. You would have realized this had you read the post #70.
