  1. Do you want the new Centurion-class light destroyer? Splitting it isn't a kill, and it is fully functional. You could take a few potshots.
  2. What do you use it for? I've hit one game that I can't max out: XCOM 2. My CPU is that bottleneck.
  3. I'm back! My pc build is done, though there were some issues.

The first assembly, the motherboard was defective in one RAM slot. Thus, when you put anything in that slot, it wouldn't POST. But with RAM in only the other slot, it was just fine. I sent back the motherboard, and a new one arrived about 2 weeks later. When the motherboard came back, I used some spare Arctic Silver 5 as thermal paste for the cpu. Everything else was routine. But, case fans are on that list because Cooler Master's original case fan in the front of the case died. So, it was replaced by that set of Noctuas, and now, the CPU cooler is the loudest part of the build. My question is, is this a good upgrade proposal for this summer?

  4. I can make small ships to assist the fleets of others? Nothing larger than 50 tons though.
  5. I'll PM people copies of the star flux if you request it, but otherwise no public release until completion.
  6. Here: I warn you, its a UFO and doesn't follow current rules. It was before wing clipping was banned, and the reason why wing clipping was banned.
  7. Want a copy of the X-01 StarFlux to test against? No wing stacking, just huge wing area.
  8. Yes, but it is changeable back to 1 anyway, and it still won that way. Looks like a plane that can't turn to me... like its real life counterpart.
  9. I think part of combat is having a plane designed to not lose its energy while avoiding fire.
  10. I have an idea: 3 classes of planes. So, you work your way up the classes of planes by winning matches. If you win a tournament, you're in first class. Win 3 matches, and you get 2nd class. Just starting out: 3rd class. So, if I beat every plane in 3rd class and am in 3rd class, I'll challenge a 2nd classer of my choice. If I win, anyone below and including him goes down to 3rd class. All past tournament winners are in 1st class already, regardless of rules changes. So, for example, my FA-33 is in 1st class, as the leader, along with other tournament winners like the XMF-1. 2nd class would be anyone in this tournament who takes 3 matches, and 3rd class is all new entries. 1st Class XMF-1 FA-33 GoldenHawk 2nd Class Flutter Top Kek Asp(Beat the flutter) K-17 Canard C(beat flutter in my tests) 3rd Class Everyone else
  11. No engine stacking allowed, its considered clipping of engines.
  12. Yeah, it actually turns better in dry, but the problem is that it doesn't have the thrust to weight ratio to win in that mode.
  13. Link Here: http://www./download/gg3a8ef70gm7eyi/K-17_Canard_C.craft 4X AIM-120 = 16 2X Flares = 6 2X Chaff = 4 1x 50cal Turret = 4 1x Ammo Box = 4 34 points
  14. Oh its been a while... @XannariFerrows?
  15. It's time for my x wings to return I guess. Let's bring some style to wing stacking.
  16. Ugh, I expected better than this. The selection of aircraft was quite nice and pretty, up until sasquatch's triplane appeared. I guess that I'll chase the flavor of the month then, because no one legislated against many wings last tournament for some reason that slips my mind.
  17. 2 planes from me, one is new and slightly improved. No craft files yet though. K-15 Kestrel And the Canard B
  18. 7/10 Not one for mech robots/battlesuits Monado 3
