Erm...

I'm out of the tournament.

I feel that I can't build a fleet, yes, but a ship, no problems.

Build a 100 point ship, then use 3 of them. That way you only have to make one ship?

Or use three of the same shell, and just switch around mod and weapon placements that cost the same amount of points to make it easier on you?

One of my fleet ideas actually employs 3 of the same 100 point ship.

I don't mind testing my ideas with your ideas. I don't know how you want to arrange it though.

I'll pm ya once I refine the fleets, thanks much appreciated. I need some feedback, and just don't want to share my fleet(s) with everyone. So I normally choose one person to share my ideas with, and get a outside perspective of things. Feel free to pm me if ya have anything refined already for scrutiny, I will be more then happy to give ya some feedback. I'll probably send something your way to try out tonight sometime, but please make sure to not share my ideas with any after I send them to you. Heading to work here in a sec, so it'll be awhile till I do send anything your way. Also I expect the same in return from who I work with, helping with ideas goes both ways. So if I pm ya a few of my fleets, I expect you to return the favor. Thanks, and please again do not share my ideas with anyone. Feel free though to make use of them in your set up however once I send some examples.

The low HP per segment of this tourney really makes me worry about M. Tacs.

Ouch...

Agreed. Maybe up the HP per segment a bit? Give some ships a fair chance?

It only really applies to battleships that are too slow to not die.

Barring any SNAFUs, I'd like to join. I'm sure that weapon stats themselves aren't allowed to be customized, but we're allowed to screw with the colors of the projectiles, correct?

The hp is fine, just need a good build or alot of flectors to combat mega's. Or good speed, if ya make a slow battleship......make sure it can handle mega's lol. Plus mega tac ships have many weaknesses, including fast moving ships and long range ones. Plan for the worst, and you'll be better off.

I agree with DarkenShroud's assesment, pretty much said what I was going to say about MTacs.

And yes, any sort of color customization is fine. You're allowed to change anything that does not change how the weapon functions.

Questions for CmdPrompt or anyone that knows.

1. Can we put thrusters on our ships?

2. About weapon arcs. Rules say arcs can be up to 135 degrees.
If you set arc to 135 in the editor it gives the weapon 270 degrees
of coverage. What is the maximum number we can input for
the arc? 135 for 270 degrees or is the maximum 67.5 which
gives 135 degrees of coverage.
