Initial AoTK II Thoughts
« on: April 08, 2005, 11:27:27 am »
These are just thoughts and subject to complete change

-   F,H,G  vs.  I,L,Z  vs. R,K

-   No OoB at all

-   Maximum number of DHs and BCHs on the board per side (exact number to be determined)

-   All VC points will be map based.

-    Stock shiplist with ZERO changes.

-   One ship per pilot.

-   No escorts

-  The better the ship the more it costs.   Price of DNs and BCH to be very very high

-  Destroyable bases.

-  VCs set up so that teams cannot gang up.


Result.    No Downloads (unless you've been on Mars and don't have the mission pack by now).   Few rules.    All races.   Old school style campaign.


It's time for something like this.

Can't we restrict the DH's altogether. <snicker>

Looks like I'd better get Firesoul to put in the Lyran BCV then..

Yes curious as to this.  Old school stock might be quite refreashing, and certainly less carrier dominated.

Will we finally get to play some early era again?  And will we end before the cheesefest of advance era?

If we can reel in the AI carriers, I'd prefer to go with FS's shiplist. There's more variety, and nearly everybody in the community has it, so keep it simple.

I think 3-ways are filled with disaster, but if you say you have a way to keep it from becoming a 2v1...good enough for me.

-   No OoB at all
Cool

Quote
-   Maximum number of DHs and BCHs on the board per side (exact number to be determined)
I thought you said no OOB ;)

Quote
-   All VC points will be map based.
Should help w/ the pvp run away and making the game more of a game.

Quote
-    Stock shiplist with ZERO changes.
Yes, we know you mean OP+ 4.0

Quote
-   One ship per pilot.
Cool

Quote
-   No escorts
Didn't know they were still in tha game. ;)

Quote
-  The better the ship the more it costs.   Price of DNs and BCH to be very very high
So...we are going back to normal?  Cool

Quote
-  Destroyable bases.
Will you make bases cheaper to buy?

Quote
-  VCs set up so that teams cannot gang up.
Cool.  But how?

I agree with DieHard. The standard shiplist is boring. I like OP+

It has the ISC in it right?

Cool, less cheese and tastes great. No uber-LDR rampaging all over the map. No WYN. Besides, OP I-BCV has room for improvement. OP Frog CV complement changes have room for improvement. I've argued since SS2 to get it changed and no one cares; so, ISC gains by sticking with stock list even though we all lose the HDWs.

See, I can be like DH. It's not that hard. :D

Oh, I forgot.

Karnak brings up a good point J'inn.  Can you run the server without the ISC?  It would make the game a lot more enjoyable.
