Topic: So I went back and played SFC 2 again today,

[3dot14]

something struck me as odd when I saw the pic the first time. but i couldn't say what... but now I know.
F-BCV isn't supposed to be the excelsior model. it's the arc royal model. (and if the central ISC is the carrier, its model is off too. no ISC ship uses the starcruiser model has fighters)

now I got that off my chest... Nice screenshot!

I found the same thing true with SFC.  I never got into SFC2, just went from SFC to SFC3.  When I tried to play SFC, I forgot most of what I had learned.  It comes back quick, but after 6 weeks of SFC3, going back to the old SFC felt like a step up, if you know what I mean.  Lots more to do, a lot more strategy in my opinion.  I tried the typical SFC3 strategy of close and pound and found myself quickly turned into my constituent atoms.  I think SFC3 is a decent game, but as far as continued playability, SFC (and probably SFC2 if I ever pick it up, which I might now) is head and shoulders above SFC3.    

In lieu of a patch for SFC3 I decide to get back into EAW. Log on to the SFC2.net 7.25 server. First mission is a scan, so hit R, turn slightly off from the planet and hit the W key ....... idiot.

This server will use the I-BCV. In fact, all races have their own version of a battle carrier (F-BCV, I-BCV, M-BCV, K-BCV) or PF cruiser carrier (R-THV, G-BCHV, L-BCV).

I am working on a website now for the server but here's the latest topic thread on it until I get the site up.

That sounds much like some of the ships which will be in the next OP+ shiplist.

.. the shiplist is pretty much ready, but some things need to happen before I release it.
Oh well.. don't worry. You'll like it.
