    Jump Fuel Indicator

    Probably so in Privateer you didn't get a hit to the fuel tank and spring a leak , you blew up spectacularly .

    Against All Odds - We need you!

    Thank you ! That was a simple and concise explanation . It does however lead me to many more questions . How is combat decided ? How long are "turns" ? (i.e. do you have to be on-line "IM-ing" , a day , whenever you next post ?) Is there a position for a novice in Fleet/Wing tactics ...

    Phalanx Cockpit WIP

    I like it. I would think you would be more concerned with the ships to your left , right and above , the guy in front is gonna die soon .

    Against All Odds - We need you!

    I really don't want to fan the flames , but... What is a WCAAO RPG ? To me a RPG involves a group of people sitting around with paper , pencils , dice and some books usually well worn books . Please don't tell me it's just the same thing on computers . How does it work , what is the...

    Jump Fuel Indicator

    I belive that you would need to move in order to collect a noticable amount of fuel . Though kentic energy would keep you in motion if you cut your engines. Scoops only aquire non-jump fuel , so if you lost/used all your supply of normal fuel you would need ? days ? to aquire enough to travel...

    Possible Phalanx cockpit design

    Being able to tour your ship sounds great ! For a "dash" orniment , how about a Kilrathi clawing a scracthing post . I don't know if they were well enough known in this era to have degrading trinkets of them yet . (saw a similar one of a buck rubbing his antlers on a tree )

    Jump Fuel Indicator

    Howard , if I follow your explanation , Your scoops (when in operation ) are constantly replinishing your non-jump fuel , at a much slower rate than your consumption . This reduces your need for non-jump fuel slightly . The afterburner is a huge power drain , which by throwing a lot of...

    Jump Fuel Indicator

    I am sure one of the WC gurus can make short work of a "proper" answer . I do remember afterburner "fuel" and guns "energy stores" using the same indicator. Fuel for engines , power for afterburner , it would replenish / recharge itself .

    Against All Odds - We need you!

    EU ? I assume you aren't refering to the European Union . No I was talking about the dozens of books written that Lucas Arts had to approve ( to make absolutely sure they were "canon" ) , and they were very particular about what they would permit . To have put such a ridgid sytem in place...

    General ideas

    Plasteel , I am in no way a continuity cop . I'm to ignorant of the WCU to be, the only game I've played is Privateer , and read one book (Freedom Flight , maybe I can't remember title , which ever one is first with the jerk Aussie pilot ) . I never used the term Fanboyism , I'd never...

    General ideas

    Sorry , the hull would also be very useful to Confed military R&D . Therefore not allowed out of thier control without many courtmartials and heads rolling . I just dont buy it , not beliveable . The Messerschmitt ploy would only work if it were 2730 and the jalthi were no longer a line unit...

    General ideas

    Nose art , cool ! Nameable ships would be very nice ! Player flyable jalthi , naw . I just don't see a conviencing argument for it staying in a players hands. Kilrathi , pirates , crimelords , government would all be going all out to get it or destroy it . But you two seem really jazzed on...

    The Ion Cannon coming to an orbit near you!

    Yes there would be screaming from around the globe . "they are doing this to dominate us" Blah , Blah ,Blah ... However it is the exact same defensive messures that won the cold war . "If" you are capable of stopping a missle from leaving your enemies air space so that it does not harm you...

    McDonalds has a new bacon cheeseburger

    Popeyes are growing up yonder ?! The way they all died out down here I thought they were going belly up . No white castles down here in N.C. , We have Krystals just about the same thing , only the "burgers" are only 2/3rd's the size .
