Megalodon 720 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I managed to slice one of your ADA's in half with a 2.5 meter round that weighed 5 tons but that, of course, is not very practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightBritches Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 If you want, you can bring in another ship to even the odds once you've cycled through all your current ones. (Since it's been a 3v4 battle so far.)I may do that, so at the very least I can test another hull That being said, would you mind if I brought in a larger ship? I was looking into up-arming a Nugget hull (destiny/fortune, figured the designation was fitting) and while cycling through some designs, I discovered I have a larger (experimental) ship completely finished that has never seen the light of day.Not sure on its weight right now but I can check later tonight and let you know, if not its no big deal, and I'll just finish the up arming of the Nugget-Class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I try to make my ships as tough as realistically possible, and plan my tactics around that. Adapt to Survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBritches Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) WTB stronger ship internals I guess on the positive side, they only really die from lots of shaking Oh and awesome picture is awesome, and I feel is actually desktop background worthy (not for me though, I'm being shot at XD) Edited June 20, 2014 by BrightBritches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megalodon 720 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Considering both of the ships I'm considering have survived a drop from 100km I'd say they would survive a few hits from orbit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScriptKitt3h Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) How do you overcome atmospheric drag?That's still something that needs to be worked out, and mostly I load it up with i-beam rods w/out probe cores.(Mainly for part count reasons, although in theory a probe core equipped rod could hit a target from orbit.)However, the rods still impact at over 100 m/s or more with stock aerodynamics, so they work for their purpose.Also, are you in any way interested in finishing our surface battle from way way back?

Well, I still have the persist tucked away somewhere in my mediafire folders, so I can link to it tomorrow.Also, I think it was your turn since I went all panicky in my move and spread out my forces a bit to draw ya out.

daemonCaptrix Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 (edited) I sifted through the pages and found the persist file. I'm working on my turn now but you parked everything so far away. xD------------------------------------------------------The enemy was parked REALLY far away.Finally within range.Three shots. The first one did no damage, but tipped it up on its side. The second one got shot off by accident as I was adjusting the angle.The third shot took out a wing, leaving the plane (hopefully) crippled.The Stub decides to disguise itself as a cactus.Persistent Edited June 21, 2014 by daemonCaptrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
