I have lots of responses here, but I would be treading into proprietary stuff we should not be talking about openly. I will note though that I have looked at a credit system, where players earn and spend crew credits by crewing ships for others or having them crew their own. I think these...

okay so not cheap, but gee golly gosh. . . http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lambda-Deep-Learning-GPU-Workstation-4x-1080Ti-DevBox-/253026525935?hash=item3ae98e62ef:g:rCMAAOSwLsBZWtHt

If one wants to run that super-wide screen we looked at a few weeks ago, can one actually run more than one 1080 card at a time and somehow splice them, so you have really fast fps? And likewise, if the cheap $20 on ebay cards are questionable especially since they run only 2GB, can you put...

IMHO, to start there will be at least 2 kinds of activities--either you have scouted a target and go after it, or you go out looking for targets of opportunity. Until we know better, my guess is the most effective means for both these are to fly wings of Vanguard together. At least one...

Yes. CIG did a vid more than 2 years ago, with a Lancer on the prowl out in an asteroid field, that activates a spike missile by passing too close, and it comes alive, hunts down and disables the passing Lancer. This is apparently all planned for future gameplay.

Yeah. Even if you keep the easiest distinctions between fighters and bombers, there are other categories that may or may not be included in "multi-mission". Wild Weasel EM Warfare like the Growler are "multi-mission", but in space you have other tasks you do not have in the air, such as...

I don't think it matters much what class we would assign any particular fighter, since whatever rule we have for this we will find exceptions to; but I do think categorizing by mass is simple and insightful. If we leave dedicated bombers like the Tally and Eclipse aside, but include...

I'm a Sen fan but don't know what its range will be like. The Dur is nice, but is a flying target. The 315P looks like it will be customizable enough to make it feel like home, and it can outrun almost anything. One key issue though, is what is the scan range. If the Dur scans twice the...

. . .that can run SC would be what? Friend wants something used on EBay.

Counted. Drop a note in the Privateering thread in the professions folder so your name appears. There are actually a lot of ships in that price category so I left them aside, but yeah, if you fudge $25 you can get a much longer list. Some Vanguard and Conny as well as the Tally. I think this...

next costume:

Yeah well, the last costume was 10 years ago so don't hold your breath. I do so want some star marine armor though, or this at left, or Halo. Or something that started out like Halo and moded to look like the pirate heavy. With 3D printing I'm sure it will hit the market quickly.

Next time I do a costume I am planning to pick up a cheap, used electric airsoft gun and install glowy bits. The full-auto feature is nice since the gun will actually appear to fire, and if the slide racks it will reveal the glowy bits between shots...

Another way to dress up a Nerf, airsoft or other prop gun is to place a light stick or baton inside. Especially if there is an open slide, where looking in would reveal a nice glow in your favorite color (YELLOW on BLACK!) you can give an otherwise ordinary prop that look of a blaster. I have...

Uses "kosher" salt, which is the same stuff we put on the roads when it ices outside, and gobs of hot mustard.

Is there some unsuspecting innocent you can spread your addition to with a gaming package, and sign him/her up as your squire or some such? Bringing in players from outside the game is your best bet for loyal subordinates.

Yeah. The fact you can buy a Carrack for $350 is what makes the $425 for the Prowler so hard to take. If you are really going to do comparisons between ships, staying in the same price category would be advisable. So for prices around the Carrack you have: Caterpiller-- $295 Scythe--...
