    The Tally

    Depends. Against torps you only need 1hit. Attritions fire~5/s so 5s is 25 shots/gun. 100 attempts is enough to kill the torp if there’s someone in the turret. Cannons have a much lower chance.

    It does have some surprising options. This may be another good platform for a Sukoran shield. An Eclipse reactor has enough power for just 2 M7A, engines and a low power military shield. The Sukoran takes much less power than other shields, produces less EM, and importantly, blocks ballistics...

    Will do! My intention at beta is to form a small group and grow it slowly, which is why I am looking first at groups of 4-5, then perhaps 9, ultimately large and skilled enough to run a Polaris with support running missiles, torps and fuel into our secret base in Vanduul territory. I’ll keep...

    23.2 Update in Erkul lists S5 turrets moved from 275hp to 2,750hp.

    The Guardian is sounding better and better. I didn’t think I would like it but it’s growing on me. It’s svelt, has a bed, good dps with excellent range, and the S2 cooler on a 2S1 reactor suggests much better than average cooling. Half the shield of the Vanguard, but significantly faster and a...

    Telescopes

    Has anyone ever heard mention of player deployed telescopes that can do whole system observation in real time?

    The Tally

    S3 guns range to 2,600 meters and the torps fly about 500m/s, so ~5s to shoot them down. Suppose you’re shooting at a Tali. 5 turrets are trained on incoming if you give them a full minute warning. With only 20s warning, they might catch all unprepared. Plus. . .sneaking is cool.

    The Tally

    Well you can say all that, but the players landing torps say the reason they ever miss a hit is the torps get shot down. Typhoons have a reputation of being hardest to shoot down. However, most important of all variables is the readiness to shoot a torp down, and that readiness depends entirely...

    4.0 is Here!

    Remember too to choose ships with extended range. Pyro is spread out some. 315P, Vanguards, MSR, Atlas drive, Hemera, all good choices.

    SpaceX Catches Returning Superheavy Launch Booster

    The idea is that eventually, SpaceX will be able to speed up reuse by placing Starship directly on top again. The refurbishing will be reduced to mere hours. Keep in mind Musk wants to launch Starships in the hundreds per year. So very quick turn around for the booster is a must.

    The Tally

    Well look, you can believe whatever makes you feel happy. Like I said, no, hell no, I am not going to look for stuff from a decade ago. And FYI, if an FR-76 actually generated 98k heat/second, there is not a single ship in the game wouldn’t melt down in two seconds using it. That’s obviously...

    The Tally

    There are at least 8 kinds of armor in game already. Their coefficients are listed in both calculators. The Ghost’s stealth suppression is quite mild, at only about 15% for all three. Compare that to the stunning suppression of the Prowler, which I think is up around 60%, and the Talon and...

    SpaceX Catches Returning Superheavy Launch Booster

    Reminds me of all the years I was arguing with NASA’s senior engineering staff who kept saying SpaceX will never be able to create reusable rockets. Well, you certainly can’t do hard stuff if you believe you can’t do hard stuff. Shout out: eat shit, Bill Carson; and all the other overpaid trolls...

    It's the small things...

    It’s pretty bad. I’ve seen footage of a lot of hurricanes, but that’s 150mph winds or so. There’s footage of 215mph wind from Milton. I have to suppose that’s from inside the tornadoes. There were at least 33 of them. Crazy.

    So picking up from the the thread on the Tali, what might we make of the 7 beds aboard the Tali if we used it with a Lib? 9 beds total. So combining a Tali and a Lib you could field 3 Eclipse, 2 Firebirds, and have 4 players on the Tali. That’s 15 S9 torps. No MIS needed. That’s a pretty...
