Newbies and Phoenix

[pkk]

QUOTE (SnowLeopard @ Apr 8 2008, 04:12 AM) Phoenix seems to fit that bill perfectly, not only having relatively familiar ship designs (F-16s in spaaaaaaace),

You're wrong, that's what it's all about. Newbies love nix because of the ship models.

Code: Select all

Next thing I see is six pods floating in their home. I can only surmise that it was a failed nan-run. *facepalmhead$#@!ARRRRHK*

That game wasn't pretty.

Funny thing was that the one who awnsered he was probing wasn't in that sector, but actualy probing a rip reciever next to one of our sectors (and I should know, because I was all alone...)

You've snatched the pebble, now go get your cool ass dragon tats on your forearms then go forth and confuse.

Reasons I think they think they're awesome (I used it when I used to be the biggest noob in allegiance so I have experience lol):

-Cool name "Phoenix"
-awesome ship models
-super-awesome sheilds and Med Assault Sheild
-Awesome tranceiver tech (eg Vulicans, Laser Blossoms, Laser Cannon)
-Awesome Vanguards that RIP ANY OTHER SMALL SHIP IN A COUPLE OF SECONDS WITH 2 MINI AC'S (stronger with MINI AC 3!!!!!!)
-Good Miner yeild
-stronger scan range to make scouting easier (I think I might have known that when Iwas a biiiig noob maybe not)
-Awesome bases (althought they are BIOS models)
-Cheat technology: NOVA BOMBS!!!!!!!!!!! MUA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!

[Curiosity]

lol@nova bombs

(have you ever commanded under 1.50 money?)

I have commed phoenix quite a few times, and ive -never- gone the Nova Bomb route (and ive only gone Vans once, after being endlessly pestered by my team for them). Usually, if your team is not full of suck, Transciever tech is usually enough to win the game. If your team is full of suck, it wont matter since there would be no way there would be enough cash to get anything big and powerful anyway.

I usually comm under sane settings, though.

I might add that there is heavy emphasis on salvage. Not as much as Belters, but vulcans, laser blossoms, and laser cannons all require technologies from two seperate tech bases, Vulcans and Laser Cannons requiring Supremacy and Tactical and Laser Blossoms requiring Expansion and Tactical, which means its best for the comm to research one route while salvaging tech from the other routes. Of course, going multiple routes is an option, but in most games every credit saved matters.

you are the first one who actually said anything interesting at all
