Faction Name: To come Leader Name: David Rhoades Faction Imagery: To come Values: Democracy Aim: become an independent faction in the galaxy, and a worthy foe for anyone who says otherwise Concept: A science outpost, the planet was colonised because it was a great place to research and test new mili...

maybe we should have each form of pd be good against different things. like the point defence beam would be good at stopping drones and the big missles, but would have trouble with smaller things, like artillery fire. the flak cannon would be useful for missles, and maybe large amounts of artillery,...

With the ship rules falling into place, i think we need to start work on what we will use to build them. note this is a bunch of notes writen as i through of them. currently a 100 size ship has a mass of 10k i think we could go for (stock) 1 credit per ton of mass. if we say 1 population(stock, 000'...

I don't like the idea of fighters like in MG 1.0. I think all the stuff needed to keep someone alive in that tiny space is unrealisated. I don't mind having drones as research options through, as long as we have some good starting PD to counter them.

reading through all that, it all looks good. Assuming base tax income is the same for every world,and we keep population to easy numbers. my only fear is if it is possible to get morale to a point where you get more taxes for low then normal. I will go test it a bit later. Edit: after testing values...

i would say how many planets you want an average faction own, and times that by a number of likely factions.

I think we should start with just a basic set of systems and such. that way each faction can research what they want, and would make battles more interesting. Weapons i am thinking just laser cannons, machine guns and missles(module name ingame) I reckon crew limits for each threat rating, along wit...

for the science lab, have a module for different things, such as weapons, shields(yes, i do think we should start with limited shields in this metagame), engines, armor, sensors (you get the idea). have limited slots so you can only have so many different areas you can research, and be able to work ...

here's my idea on the money and resources stuff. Money could pay for workers (maintenance on shipyards, resource stations and such), and minerals can be used for the building of them. use money only for planet improvements (like more houses to support more pop). Base values could be (as an example) ...

Hello Blue-Kun. Nice day for a tactical nuke to appear in your reactor, ain't it? (suddenly the blue-kun explodes)
great design through.

maybe we should do something with these ships when they are done. maybe have something like the 'great war' idea i read about.

this is a good idea. gives us something to work on for a long time. spent the day working on ships, only have cruisers left. my flag ship(only a battleship) just about survives wave 10 in the grinder still looking like a ship. that sounds about balanced for fleets of this size(maybe way to balance e...

The ship looks like you made it by randomly throwing sections down.
looks a bit like a soup ship.

wow. we did something right

Sorry if i am upseting anyone here, but it seems that this tournament has died.
