    Awww yeessss! Eclipse unveiled!

    Fighters generally carry S1 and S2. Some rare fighters like the Harbinger, and Sentinel carry S3. The Gladiator carries S5, so we can guess it will be able to carry S3 instead. The Tally says S3, but if you recall the walk throughs, looks like they are S10. The Polaris is a much bigger ship...

    Reclaimer vs Carrack?

    The Reclaimer should be finished by Fall. The Carrack will be another year. Seems an easy choice to me. Fly the Reclaimer now and wait to see if you want the Carrack instead of or in addition to, a year from now. It really depends much more who you are gaming with than what ship you all...

    Awww yeessss! Eclipse unveiled!

    I think so. Might carry a little more ordinance than the Gladiator. Think of the B2 Spirit: much smaller than the B52, but large enough for the largest sort of bomb you have, which is much larger than what will fit on a fighter/bomber like the F-18. I would not be surprised if this fits a...

    Awww yeessss! Eclipse unveiled!

    The Harbinger will be flyable in a season. This won't be flyable for a couple years. Makes it an easy choice. Also keep in mind this is a carrier-based attack ship. The Vanguard will all have much greater range and probably speed too. Better to fly the Warden, Harbinger, Hoplite and...

    So join us when we loan them off The Outsiders on Leir. I keep telling people, the last thing to spend money on in the 'Verse is the ships. Save your money for NPCs, insurance and such. You can't "liberate" NPCs.

    So if this carries a rack of S3 missiles, it is the perfect companion to the Prowler for snatch and grabs. Send a bunch of Arrestor III's and dog pile on the rabbit. Hope it can mount extended-range tanks.

    Awww yeessss! Eclipse unveiled!

    No stats published about weapons, payload, components, etc? BTW yeah, it does look like they fold and this is therefore a carrier bomber. Stealth version of the Harbinger.

    I theorize the Eclipse is a stealth bomber (video)

    I think there is a fair chance they will rebrand the Redeemer to another manufacturer before they rebuild it. I'd make it MISC. Right now it has a place in the market since technically it has more firepower than the ships with airframes, and should be both faster and harder to breech than the...

    I theorize the Eclipse is a stealth bomber (video)

    Anyone else think this looks like an oversized Avenger? You know if they have several variants where you can swap out the bomber bay for other things, this could become one of the very coolest ships in game.

    Eclipse footage!

    Has anyone read anything about the Eclipse being a carrier based bomber? This looks too big for carrier based to me. I am wondering if it is a long range bomber.

    New footage of the Reclaimer!

    Agreed, I think they will get a least $400 for this in the future. They could probably get $500 for this and the Carrack and not injure future sales at all.

    CIG to charge $5 CCU fee

    I don't think it is true the newer ships are always more powerful than the older ones. The Bucky, Hurricane and Guardian are all inferior to the Hornet and Sabre, IMHO. I do think you should complain loudly about the $5 fee. if you don't you are stuck with it, and if you do it will likely not...

    CIG to charge $5 CCU fee

    I can't imagine CIG will do this given the tenuous situation they have already placed themselves in. they need the player base happy while they go on year after year and if they do this, the peeps will not be happy. It is really just how much do you think we can get away with, and the players...

    Take action to defend Net Neutrality! Keep things as they are right now!

    Is there a simple piece of equipment one can purchase to do such a test himself? I plan to be moving a couple times in the next few months, and if I could test the DSL lines before moving that would be important to do. Hey, this is cool: http://speedtest.att.com/speedtest/ What sort of...

    Take action to defend Net Neutrality! Keep things as they are right now!

    Bandwidth and the demand for it has almost nothing to do with this problem. This is not a case of supply and demand. The question is whether providers should be allowed to artificially create scarcity to drive up costs, by throttling specific customers they think they can then manipulate to...

    Take action to defend Net Neutrality! Keep things as they are right now!

    Great stuff. Thanks for this call to action. I would like to add just one small explanation. This is not a case where capitalism fails and we need regulation. It is because this situation is not an example of free market capitalism it needs regulation. Normally, competition between...

    You have busses up there? I thought y'all had dog sleds. Aren't there dog sleds? I'm so horribly confused. Next thing you know it will turn out Celine Dion is actually from Illinois.

    I think they need to be photoshopped into the back of a Hoplite, along with some dancing girls.
