I understand Crim's frustration, but if he has so little time to play, I am not sure he could earn the pp for one of the currently restricted ships on this server on some other type of server.  I basically find the D2 crappy.  What people want are interesting scenarios within a strategic context.  There's too much AI fluf in the D2, not enough substance.

ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB GDDR3

Fluf is AI?   That explains the billion hours of playtime . . .

Strategy in D2 is an lillusion.  The fun comes from ignoring that fact, BSing with your buddiers on TS, and hunting down live players.

Last night (Saturday) in a 30-minute shootout I defeated deadmansix in his F-sCVD (with A-10 fighters according to deadmansix) with my R-KRCS. I have the game film and an end-game screen shot if it is required for anything. Deadmansix flew well and used his fighters to great effect. I landed some lucky shots on his hull and slowed him down enough to eventually drag him down. <S> to Deadmansix for a game well played. Was an honor, my friend!

Scratch another Specialty ship...Tobin's NCD+. He was doing OK until he failed to notice the wave of drones form his now captured CAD helper.  ;)

Yeah, I failed to notice the capture and was going to form up with the CAD+ when reality took a nasty turn. At least I was able to destroy Reyam's RGK with my NCD before you nialed my poor little ship. GG.

But 762... I was agreeing with DieHard, brother. hehe (Of course, it can still be "Ronin Season" as me and Bugs Bunny always enjoy that game.)

DH's listing in the allaince forum by the year was a bit confusing. His purpose for that was just so folks new what ship would be available to choose from that cycle. The actual build/conversions, however, occur on the dates and times (8PM EDT) listed on the site.

I too noticed this, But, since it has been done, let them go ahead this time and I'll tell my pilots to go ahead as well. But next time we'll make sure everyone knows to wait until after 8 pm, OK?  ;)

And the Klingons will build another C8V(flown by Skull) and a C8K(flown by GreyWuf). The Roms build a CNV (flown by Pardek) and bank 1 point.
Doomstone is getting a FDW, so is KHH_Mrogue, Ktaqh jeH, and Indy Shark. I'm taking a DWD.
More updates on this to follow later this evening.

Hey Wanderer!  How about some names for the new ships?



P.S.  I am taking lots of high quality pharmaceuticals.  You guys had better double check everything I do.

Drugs Good.  Ouchy throat bad.
