Looks like the Vanguard is about six meters longer and wider than the Legionnaire. So yeah, despite they call for the same landing pad size, that difference should be enough to fit the Legionnaire into the Polaris hanger, whereas the Vanguard will not fit. If you’re willing to put just a...

The Legionnaire is bigger than the Terrapin, but not so big as a Vanguard. Pad size really doesn’t help when you’re looking at big deck spaces like the Idris. I think the Idris will be able to squeeze Legionnaires a bit closer than folks might guess. Also, though I haven’t checked, I’m pretty...

The Legionnaire gets even fewer loves but the whole concept is full of awesome. I think when it actually arrives and players see what it can do they’ll fall in love.

Apart from all this, my primary objection is the Space Turtle costs too much. It should be $100 cheaper. Fat chance that happening.

There are several vids arguing for different notions for the missing Zeus. I can only say what I’m hoping for. In a universe at war, it is strange indeed there are no ships in scout configuration. Only smallish explorers put some slight emphasis on such design and my guess is the reason behind...

I dunno. Originally, the Sukorans were the first boy shields to provide defense against ballistics, so I always justified ownership of a Defender or Prowler in order to put their Sukorans on the Sentinel. Now the original claims you can’t buy Sukorans without their ships are under dispute, and...

Need to put the latest brouhaha somewhere. https://apnews.com/article/mandalorian-gina-carano-lawsuit-lucasfilm-disney-37be85aeaa856492e3d5008add8e5100

As with fuel management, we’ll have to wait to see. What CIG has said, is that with multiple radars you can check EM, IR and RCS simultaneously, or that you can take one radar (really should be “sensor”), and assign it high gain/low coverage to extend its range. So supposing that will happen...

Just found this vid comparing these exploration ships. Since the Zeus reveal I’m waiting with baited breath on the ES, as it seems to address the few things I’m not crazy about with the 400i. The vid’s analysis is fair but misses some important points. First, it appears the ES will have a...

The ship pricing changes seems to be the most controversial. Some ships will be cheaper in game but most will be more expensive, which will drive the real cash market some and of course that will generate complaints. Generally, you’ll be able to get into cheap ships faster, but expensive ships...

I don’t think it’s fair to say none of the marriage problem comes from feminism. That was certainly true 20-60 years ago. It’s not true now because of the toxic turn we’ve seen. The entire “Passport Bro” industry with Western men increasingly turning up their noses at Western women for anything...

I’m confused when I look at today’s stats for relationships and marriage. The field is not even, just as you say; but the losers seem to be in the same numbers given male and female birth rates are about equal. More women are throwing themselves at the top 5% of men and those guys are having...

I have to agree with all that despite I was trying to be more academic than personal. Still, agreed. The kinds of women who accuse men of “mansplaining” are generally undesirable for a host of reasons prior to picking up the self-destructive behaviors that further separate them from traditional...

More death of Star Wars: https://youtube.com/shorts/J1h6VPLN8fo?si=WNgnEEOkOAYlMEvu

Nah, I think you’re having delusions. Luke is nothing like your feeble mind is pretending. And this is the biggest problem with today’s youth—they think anything coming out their mouth must be right because Mommy says so. OTOH, we have all of reality, that clearly demonstrates Luke Skywalker is...

Just to be clear, and fair to Daisy Ridley, there’s nothing about her performance nor public face that offends. Just because we’re referring to the latest trilogy of movies as hers doesn’t mean anyone blames her for the stench in the films. Her acting is good. I’m not personally attracted to her...

Well you could try reading. That helps with the ignorance condition. You are projecting your vast ignorance onto the issue when just thirty seconds searching online will convince you that: a) “modern feminism co-opts its ideals from black and queer feminist theories”, and b) “modern feminism is...

So unverified word is, that Disney has parked the Daisy Ridley Star Wars project for now. That’s a significant advance over the hot mess made of public relations over the Ridley issue. I guess we’ll see what we see. There was a statement by Disney about a month ago, that they were now...
