So basically this guarantees you can purchase the ship "in buyback" in the future at the original cost even if it later increases, which means it is always available to you and with the original LTI? This is the point behind "buyback"?

There is a good vid on Leir, but IIRC the official story is that when Leir was terraformed, the guy in charge of that work was there for years, and created a cult-like following where they claimed their work "purifying" the planet had purified his followers as well, and they were then somehow...

I don't think you would be welcome on Leir. The settlement function is for inside the UEE and Leir is not UEE. Also IIUC, they don't like humans and consider us all tainted, and themselves spiritually superior, based upon a cult-like background. Think Jamestown. They're supposed to be all...

Its so hard to say about ships that haven't been built yet, and buying ships now that won't be built for years only means you can't use your investment. Fly as much now as you can so you can decide what you want to do a year or more down the road. I would not buy anything you don't expect to...

I'll probably sit second seat in a Sentinel so i can do the EM chicanery stuff. I like that. May buy both the Sentinel and Hoplite to use them together. I think someone has misled you. It is special. Wait until we start to see range figures. There are likely no other fighters that can keep...

If I were interested in creating a large corp online, I would seek investment from players who want a steady income so they can direct their attention to things other than making money. There must be a way to derive a large benefit from large parcels of land. Pooling land claims ought to have...

They come with a gimbaled S3 chin mount. Is it possible to fit a fixed S4 mount or are they demanding it is something different than all other ships? I hate when they do that. Can you stick a fixed S4 Ballistic Cannon on the chin?

Has anyone discussed the practical applications for this game dynamic? For instance, it seems to me that since most of us will live aboard our ships or at stations, a good use for land would be to clump claims together on inner system objects with good mining prospects. And one supposes people...

Can't be the Aurora's fault. He had weak knees.

There has never been any question that the MPUV would fit in the Carrack. The MPUV is truly tiny--less than 10X10m. The real question is whether real fighters will fit so they can be serviced, refueled, repaired, have their NPC crews swapped out, etc. So just noting, all the pics of the...

It really depends whether you want or need to take down the shields. By far the fastest way to kill a target is to sidestep shields with ballistics, but especially if you want to take a craft undamaged, then you do want to knock out the computer. There are three ways to do this: Distortion...

I think if you want to board something like this, you need to be able to spike it, and then shoot off all 6 manned turrets. You could get your ass kicked pretty badly trying to do that. If the turrets don't go down when the computer goes down--and I think this is one of the advantages of a...

Yes well, the Hangar looks 35 meters long at the least. It will now fit almost every fighter, but it is the size of a cap ship (if you consider Corvettes to be caps) so probably should have bigger guns, larger crew requirement and can service/carry all small ships. This is a big deal, that it...

I mistook some things from an earlier drawing. Looks like the aft port and starboard turrets cannot fire directly forward. I'm disappointed the forward side turrets are so far out that they're in the way of the rear turrets. Why would anyone desing like that? The Idris is a real cap ship. It...

Wow! It looks like all 8 turrets can be slaved forward. They all have that arc and the min crew is 3! I may have a new love. . .not sure I care about the Polaris' torpedoes so much as the speed to keep up with fighters. I wonder what sort of range it has? What a kick to fly into Vanduul...

I have never seen anything about a "non claustrophobic environment". I think they just made the rooms too big because that is the kind of mistake artists make that engineers do not. Had they checked they would have noted you don't need nor want 20' of room space across a med bay with just 4...

Its got nothing to do with specs. It's got to do with the intentions of the artist. The extra room is supposedly in the walls, and that makes sense since they all have that hexagonal cut to them and stuff hanging on the sides--there is lots of wasted space in that, and the ship is 20% larger...

I kinda love the Hawk's intention. I feel like I want to smack someone that the vid says it has 6 weapons plus an EMP, and the new entry on the page says 4 weapons. Who's head is up their ass that they can't get stuff like this right? Don't they ever fire anyone at CIG for gross stupidity and...
