    Friday Feb 24th - The Hurricane - $175

    https://robertsspaceindustries.com/pledge/ships/hurricane/Hurricane Well, first thing to note is with a pair of S4 guns up front, you already have as much firepower at the pilot's command as any other ship I can think of. Fitted with a pair of BEHR C788 Ballistic Cannons, anything you can hit...

    Do I Really Need a Fighter?

    I have not heard anything about quad mounts, but have been hoping for this from the start. Does anyone have any detail about this? Is it a real thing? Is it just for turrets, or is there a possibility we will be able to mount quad S1s into larger gimbals like those on the Prowler? Will we be...

    I recently found this map of YELA, incl. GrimHex: "Yela Composite Map" (by Rockseeker from UEMC)

    Great stuff. I am curious as one who has never flown any SC craft (no machine at present) why the coordinate system seems to be so skewed. The 360/00 radial coordinates are normally at top center, and here they are just off the 3 o'clock position to be annoying. Is this how people see...

    Do I Really Need a Fighter?

    If they cover the costs of everything uninsured, I can't see how it would be much concern. Suppose they paid you the costs of all weapons up front? Would you not then have no risk?

    Do I Really Need a Fighter?

    Is this a place to make a plug for the notion of the folks here to loan their ships to others who can't afford what they'd like to fly? Seems like a great team-building exercise to me. Lots of us have way more ships than we can field. If there is someone flying an Aurora or Mustang and your...

    Using Quantum Drive Offensively

    One of the issues that it seems no one has faced yet in combat, is the whole sub-category of situations that arise with long range scanners, especially from larger ships or specially designed ships like the Space Turtle. When you can sense or be sensed by an enemy while still outside their scan...

    Using Quantum Drive Offensively

    At SWC there was talk of someone putting together a personal jump calculator, which would do the precise calculations for you, so that if you wanted to go to a specific set of coordinates in deep space, it would give you the exact heading, and time that you should be in flight, so you could exit...

    Using Quantum Drive Offensively

    That was a great explanation, but I want to be clear--there is still no way for the pilot to enter the coordinates of the location you want to jump to, so you cannot do what I described above? Your friend can give you the coordinates where he is, but you cannot simply enter them into your...
