It's rather hard to nan moving targets at 400 meters already, so I don't really see increasing the nan range automatically meaning better bomber D. If that wasn't the case, we'd see a lot more combat nans I think.

If all nanners could aim and lead targets, that point would have had much more merit. Please also consider that the nan particle is much slower than others, so at equal range it's much harder to aim correctly. Currently, that's hardly an issue, usually, because you nan at close range so the target half of the time fills up half of your screen anyway.

I for one mainly fly scouts and nan stuff mainly because, despite next to two years of voobdom under my belt, my aim still sucks. What would change for me? Yet another incentive to stop being fodder and $#@!ing learn and lead targets.

I think we should move ss to sup so it is bought more, right now it's only bought vs belts.
This is, by far, the best idea in this thread (and I hate IB /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> )

Honestly, bump it to 600 and see what happens, but be prepared for weeks of bombrushing.

IF YOU CHANGE NAN, BE READY TO UNCHANGE THE CORE FAST.

thats all i have to say.

Or we could teach commanders the ridiculous and crazy idea that it might be worth buying ss vs exp and tac.

WHOA THATS CRAZY!!!

As a person who nans 99% of the time, 99% of this thread is full of @#(!.

Nan range is fine as it is, @#(! nan period is fine as it is.

As for the dumb@#(!s who say Xnanning doesnt work, your the dip@#(!s I keep $#@!ING ALIVE on bombruns while the D hits the nans instead of the bombers. While I get podded because noone Xnans me.

But lets JUST KEEP NANNING A BOMBER TAKING RELATIVELY NO $#@!ING DAMAGE....

The tech is fine, the pilots are the problem as per $#@!in usual.

As for removing nans from allegiance, go for it, if your that much of a selfish $#@!er to not want to die for the team(which imho most of you are(glory seeking asshats) then dont be a nan).

My job is fun, thankless? yes! Wins game after game? Yes!

Leave nan the way it is, teach people to $#@!in move when nanning an not be a sitting duck. CDT TEACHES YOU WHEN TO RUN TO DRAW THE "O" AWAY AND WHEN TO DIE FIRING...LEARN IT PLEASE!!!!

Lastly LEARN TO $#@!ING XNAN, so that I dont have something in the region of 8/1 D/K Ratio while keeping people alive!

Thanks

Goodbye

That's actually a really $#@!ing cool idea, although it'd be really difficult to do it without a cargo slot involved, I think.

An expensive device that fits in a cargo slot and gives you invulnerability to aleph res would be awesome though.

Then you could buy them for your ships, res an aleph with your bomber, be nearby when the res goes off, and RUN THROUGH.

(edit - yes. I speak . I had a good teacher. )


(edit again --- I just had Rav look it up. Resonators use DM06 in CC. Nothing else does. This is doable. ONE SIDED ALEPH RES!!!)

(edit again again -- I need to go back to the ICE academy. I clearly do not understand enough about how the stats work and am basically talking out of my posterior here. Disregard.)
