    Forming a Group

    Inside TEST you need Montoya’s permission to form a group. Apart from that though, you need some real leadership skills and some organization. I’m going to post here how others are managing these organizing duties so we can all learn from them. One observation: I really like the cadet uniforms...

    FPS Weapons Attachments in 4.5

    I’m not going to review each of these but rather just share a few prejudices. Yes, I know lots of players use whatever they pick up. Some start a conflict with just a good knife. Kudos. However, it’s good to know the basics. a) Weight matters. Choose the lightest loadout and weapon you can...

    6 Launchers

    So it appears CIG has made it a thing that no ships can launch more than 4 tubes of missiles at a time. Yet, they have been releasing ships regularly with 6 launchers. Normally one expects you’d use 4 launchers of one type (typically S2) and 2 launchers of another type. What I am wondering is...

    Ship Armor

    Word on the street is that with the implementation of armor, fighters will no longer be able to run over Corvette and Cap class ships. I am supposing S4 cannons and up will still get some “penetration”, but we’ll have to wait and see. Whatever it is the change is being lauded as a big one. The...

    Deck Champion?

    So, I’ve been asking myself again what is the best “deck fighter”, meaning what would go best inside the Idris or Liberator for fighter cover, flying over Eclipse. One of the updates from 4.3 has delivered what may become a new Meta. The Esperia Talon has had a huge boost to 24,930 hp and...

    Running an Idris

    There are some gems in here. Where to get the seats to turn a Titan into a stealth troop transport. How to manage the broken physics grid on the Idris hangar bay. Lots of great insight. I have thought for long that TEST needs a group like this, able to generate high quality vids of org...

    Pie Week

    By special decree, all pie eaten this week is shame and guilt free, but you have to be careful with the topping. Happily, mankind has adapted to the special needs created by pie week, and responded appropriately with sugar free whipped topping. Just so you know.

    L-22 Alpha Wolf

    So the energy gun version is out. As previously mentioned the L-21 had its impressive gun range nerfed. The L-22 likewise has a 3km range. Apparently either no one at CIG had originally noted the 5k ranged allowed the original release to attack ships with relative relative impunity, or they were...

    L-22 Deck Fighter

    In case folks missed it, it looks like Kruger’s Wolf L-21 will be joined by the new L-22. Players are guessing this is the laser version. Also, in case folks missed it, the gnarly ballistic guns on the Wolf were nerfed as expected, their range reduced from 5 km to 3 km. The Kruger still has...

    The Shattered Blade. . .

    NYT, and new ships for IAE. I like the new armor specific to the Vanduul hunters. I hope its stats rock. It’s very different than everything else and really sets the Vanduul killers apart. View: https://youtu.be/wGru8GtJKDA?si=nLXgYO1YYgO08zbV
