Yes well, the only reasons I can see to have 3 medium reactors instead of one large reactor are: (A) you can choose stealth reactors--there are no Large stealth reactors and (B) you can shut down some of them and have a lower EM and IR. That's a stealth design. Given three Medium coolers, you...

I think the rumor is they're going to go straight to release. Anyone else heard this?

So I was watching a vid on leaks about the 400i, and came upon what appears legitimate intel. I'm not going to copy the vid here just because it was a leak, but very quickly, that source seemed credible and said the 400i will be equipped with: 3S2 reactors 3S2 Coolers (Stealth A Nightfall) 1S2...

God bless you for your service. While I'm waxing all dramatic, let's also remember Benghazi. 9 years ago on 9/11, another hateful government abandoned its Ambassador and military and waited while they were all killed mercilessly--and did NOTHING (except fabricate lies about the cause to save...

God bless you for your service. I had a long conversation today with an old business partner. Bill is a recently retired Brigadier General. (We were in business together in aerospace during his first couple years in retirement, but we've both moved on.) He was a test pilot for USAF for years...

I was working from home in a beautiful resort community in North Western NJ. I had contacts every day in NE Bergen county, where a couple million people each day commute into Manhattan, so literally everyone you met knew someone who was killed. One of the most startling things I recall was...

The general plot devise of all the Matrix films is known as "solipsism", which is to say the subject can't know anything past that they exist. Think DesCartes "I think, therefore I am". The point is horror. Just how much of what you believe to be true is not? Is reality real? This is a...

The Wachowski brothers took to hating everyone well before they became the Wachowski sisters. From the time of their earliest sexual addictions and revelry in LA BDSM clubs, just after the first Matrix movie release, they have been equal opportunity offenders of everyone who gets near them...

Great analysis. Where do we find capacitor data? I'm not seeing it on erkul. What happens when a turret isn't used? Do the turret capacitors in the Vanguard and Cutlass add to the caps the pilot controls when there is no turret gunner, or when the turret runs ballistics? Are we expecting to...

The EM is in the right category for a ship with two medium reactors and two shields. The IR is much lower than any current ships of that size. That is half the IR of a Sentinel and 2/3 that of a Lancer. If it's the 400i, it's the new stealth ship to follow. With weapons and shields off this...

The Ghost Bear Legacy expansion pack to Mechwarrior 2 released in 1995, included 14 new Mechs. One of them, the Black Knight; became my favorite ride of all time. It was a Heavy Mech (80T) but very fast. By dropping just a tad of the standard armor it was suddenly as fast as a Medium Mech...

Welcome! You picked the right org for friends. Be sure to discover the TEST Discord channel ASAP.

I think one important thing to note about the dev comments is they're all future tense about what they "plan". No plans are set in stone until they do the coding, and even then they could change their minds. What I liked about the SQ42 update from a year ago was that he was reporting the...

The M1 isn't much faster than the competition, but it includes 4 "efficiency" cores it runs during most computations that run far cooler and use less power then the other 8 cores. Apple started tbhis years ago and it is surprising no one has followed suit. Great processor for iPads, small...

Very impressive! Can this get a sticky so it remains an easy to access resource?

Probably the funniest guy I know. How he got casted i can't imagine, but he was good!

I'm not sure what the devs could have meant by "AI Escort Pilot" other than as you describe it, though I'm still not sure it will be in the PU rather than just SQ42. Wouldn't it be a kick though, to fly a whole wing of Eclipse in on the Vanduul for pew pew?! They all deserve to die.
