A single AC is in the ballpark though.
I agree, one AC would be fine. two AC's are just overpowered. I believe the rix gunship should have ac, because it dont get missiles. But only one AC.

Too early. It is not yet on AU, I think. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Yeah, and it appears I was doing alot of coming apart in those games. We had a nanned bbr run on e garrison and out pops two or three GS -- I don't even think they killed all my nanners first -- it was pretty incredible devastation. I think I had 4 nans on that run and don't think I made it more than 1000 m or 1500 m towards base -- and gs were near the base -- not aleph camping.

The plans for the next release:

Bug fixes:

- Hvy Scout research now requires a starbase. At the moment you can research it without a starbase left, but you cannot fly the ship.

Improvements:

- TTs cost 1 buck per ship to control access


Possible changes:

- Hvy scouts have to be re-evaluated, are they to strong?
- Rix Gunships might be too strong with 2 from AC for the pilot

Just a random thought...

tt's are almost never used, like 0.0000001% of the time.

Would it be interesting to have SRM EMP Missile 1 (¼ the strength of SRM EMP Missile normally) and have it mountable on tt's and htt's at say ½ the research cost of SRM EMP Missile, and have SRM EMP Missile 2 (standard SRM EMP Missile) mountable only on htt's at the standard research of SRM EMP Missile currently?

This would allow tt's to actually be used occasionally, and also SRM EMP Missile 2 would cost 50% (taking into account that SRM EMP Missile 1 is 50% and SRM EMP Missile is 100% the cost of the standard SRM EMP Missile) more thus giving Exp a tiny nerf there as well. You could also therefore increase the cost of purchasing a tt to say ½ the cost of a htt. Overall it might be interesting.

Again, a random thought that might be interesting. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

The Original idea of GoD was to keep allegiance in an original state, not to make huge gameplay changes that go away from the original feel of the game. For example, I like the nerve gas in TAC thing on DN, its really cool and its a fun nifty change... However, I don't want that in GoD because nerve gas is unique to Belter sy and was not originally meant to be used in tac (or on sbs for that matter).

Ah well, good ol' days is fine the way it is, more or less then. /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />


I still think my idea for tt's should be stolen/liberated on a core near us soon. hehe
