Re: General forum game discussion
Hello all, let's have a fun and memorable run of things! :cool:
"We have now reached the point where every goon with a grievance, every bitter bigot, merely has to place the prefix, 'I know this is not politically correct, but...' in front of the usual string of insults in order to be not just safe from criticism, but actually a card, a lad, even a hero. Conversely, to talk about poverty and inequality, to draw attention to the reality that discrimination and injustice are still facts of life, is to commit the sin of political correctness. Anti-PC has become the latest cover for creeps. It is a godsend for every curmudgeon and crank, from fascists to the merely smug."

Re: General forum game discussion
The game hasn't even 'started' yet and its already in full swing, I'm absolutely loving what I'm seeing so far  :D

I'll venture to get the fleet statistics up today, but I sort of had a last moment of design inspiration and I want to explore that line of thought a bit. Before putting it on the forum and making it 'official'. Either way, should be soon!

Each new phase will start on a sunday, so 'saturday' will be the deadline for orders before they are set in stone. Since I'm a nerdy NEET my days are almost in sync with the american time zone, so in general, sunday sort of starts for me on 13:00 central european time* (its when I crawl out from underneath my blankets). So consider that the last possible moments to submit orders.

*If I'm not mistaken that is 07:00 EST

Re: General forum game discussion
I've got it showing up as having all the summer time and daylight saving stuff implimented. But as I always convert time wrong, I'd ignore me.

Based on the above, it will also be 10pm AEST (GMT +10). :)

Re: General forum game discussion
I'm crunching a lot of numbers on the fleet stats, I like where I'm going with this but it requires a bit more math before I can put it on here.
I'm basically throwing out a large bit of already done work at the last moment because I got struck by inspiration yesterday  :p

G-good thing this is a test game...!

Not life-threatening or anything. But in the Ihefulian System, the node to Uuni is labelled as "Terconia".

Re: General forum game discussion
Something I have completely neglected to mention for everyone and totally should have:
All factions will have 3 fleets, the factions that currently only have 2 will recieve a 'npc' Spoon fleet to level the playing field.
In the cases that two Spoon fleets would come into conflict with each other, I will ask an admiral from each respective faction to do the battle for me instead.

Will the UCG still start with neutron weapons, despite equal fleets?

10% of damage by weapons with the Neutron-keyword bypasses enemy shields

Regretting the treaty with the DD already? :P

While I cant go into details I will state that the Delest Dynasty treaty is an important step given the proximity of our capital worlds but at the same time it is one component of our diplomatic plans and that UGC and Britannia treaties are at different stages of negotiation.
