Just to remind, because I have given this explanation before: we had equality under Dr. Martin Luther King. In the sixties (over half century ago) certainly we needed some real equality. It was decades after the Emancipation Proclamation and yet race bias was still rampant. Within that cultural...

You guys can mock, and whine, and chortle and grind your gams, but this doesn’t change anything. Anyone can do a search and find thousands of vids alone, explaining in detail what woke and DEI are. They’re not some fantasy. You represent a generation that thinks men can get pregnant. People...

The latest news about Reynolds is all about the backlash against him consequent of sticking up for Hugh Jackman. I’m sympathetic. It reads like a reasonable, moderate guy surrounded by viscous attack gerbils, and other ankle biters, all intent on nibbling him to death for daring to defy their...

You realize, anyone reading this thread is seeing someone explore a single, philosophical issue that is prior to politics and affecting all of us, and then they see others who never engage in the discussion except to make personal attacks. What do you think that says about each of us? Who is...

Guys, don’t put partisan hate in my mouth. I’m addressing the subject and you’re all off on political rants. You don’t need to be on the political Right nor Left to make these observations about Reynolds, etc. I have no idea where Reynolds is on the political spectrum. There are plenty of people...

You realize, the reason I blocked Aramsolari is his habit of attacking people when he disagrees with their ideas. He’s doing it again, and you’re doing it with him. If you don’t have any cogent thoughts on the substance of my post, please don’t post. Posting attacks on me because you disagree...

I’m fine. Thanks for asking. My toes stink. I have stinky toes, but otherwise I’m fabulous. How are you?

I’d settle fir a Gallant that kills with a single triple burst while wearing a suppressor.

Yes, ICBM’s are both cheaper and more reliable than things like the proposed Blackbird Bomber and XB-70 Valkyrie, but missiles don’t actually replace all bombers, so we still have the B1, B2, B21 and B52. The turrets are gone, however. We could see them return. A CIWS type turret on a stealth...

Yeah. Seems CIG is much more focused on forcing team work than making sense. The B-29’s remote turrets actually worked better than the B-17’s manned turrets and removing people from turrets requires armoring far less of the ship. So manned turrets don’t make sense at all. Neither does moving...

Looks like mostly for kids, but pretty funny. I was never a fan but I’d say at least the first one was worth watching. I think it was Bay who originally chose them instead of the FASA Mechwarrior franchise and I always thought that was a mistake. View...

But. . .but, I wanna love the Carrack and I don’t. Maybe after the drones and modules are working. Does anyone know when modularity comes if it comes for the Carrack and Vanguard, or is it just the Tally?

Well this is my point. A military vessel should not be so low armed it needs to run from a luxury yacht. If it had a pair of S7 torps, it would not need to. The 600i drivers would leave it alone. There’s plenty of room to strap a pair of S7 torps to the outside of one of the three Carrack...

Very cool idea. I can see a place for this specifically for the Fury. And perhaps even a drone that can jump say, 8 Furies at once and provide S3 radar coverage. https://m.facebook.com/groups/516704659790759/permalink/955475049247049/?mibextid=K35XfP

It’s funny you mention the Corsair. I like the layout and feel of that ship more than any other to date, but it flies so terribly I would just never own one. It handles like a garbage scow. So there really is some balance there. It’s a great Merc ride but requires a top pilot to say to the crew...

I think Naff hit the key point in guessing—CIG has reassigned people to ship building so we really should see some enhancements to release of new ships. The Polaris is very likely the biggest money maker CIG will ever produce. Even presuming they issue other Corvettes in the future, many will...

I was reading in one of the various FB SC groups the other day, and when someone mentioned the Carrack, another player spewed “my 600i would tear it up with 3X Deadbolts!” It shocked me for a moment. Is the beloved Carrack really that vulnerable? Turns out no. The Carrack has far less...

You said you have a group to crew it. How large a group and have they individually consented to crew? I think most players are not willing to commit to just one activity. The Idris is a long haul ship. For best use it will need to be out on the fringes. Perhaps raiding Vanduul space and glory...

Yes. Keep in mind that if it were not this, it would have to be nothing at all. Were DEI as is often claimed, merely an attempt at equality, there would be zero difference between it and the egalitarianism we had before its appearance. Rather, DEI comes directly from the anti-racist writings of...
