Make ships cheap.  We've been flying a lot of Fed v Fed battles on IP the past couple of days and they have all been very bloody and very quick. 

This happens when both sides' best option is to close to point-blank with overloads.  ;D

I have no problem allowing drone ships as we have a number of good ships that can easily kill them.

i.e. Fast Cruisers or the new light cruisers are rather good at just phaser boating the things to death.

But...but everyone hated the Ace PVP thing..now you all want it??

-Uhmm only 4 launcher ship in (atm) is the BCG
Drone ships/escorts are staying out.
-It's to try and make peeps use the photons, plus see how many I can convince
the CLC is better then the CB.  ;D
- Fighters are prety much out, might rhow the basic carriers in, not sure
Again I can't see removing the droneboats and leaving carriers in.

PVP (as it stands now  :P ) is simply VP points awarded to the top
3 -5 pilots.
Only missions that count towards their kills are missions in which they had no wingmen.
Thus any 1 v1 1v2 or 1v3 mission are eligable.
If the have a wing who drops right at mission start it would count, if the wing actually makes it into mission it
does not.

So --

VP points awarded to the top 3-5 players based on Prestige Points?

Still interested in the server just -- umm well feel like a klingon lost in FED space about now.. bad enough I have to fly one of those "Garbage Scows"...

Honestly I think it would be a great idea if I got to fly Monsters and help whichever side is looing or low on numbers for the server..

Yes that is honestly not only a great idea but an excellent way to avoid putting my arse in a big blue Garbage Scow..

Now now, be nice.  They don't need to be hauling garbage.  They need to be hauled away, AS garbage.

While you are finishing the shiplist, is there any way you can be convinced to make the two factions point to different model folders?  So, for example, there would be a different model for the Good Fed F-CA and the Bad Fed F-CA?

Then I could give my side all TOS ships, and watch them blow the frell out of all those ugly TNG junkers with their obviously outsourced-to-Klinzhai warp nacelles.

(Or I could give one side ISS looking ships; it would be cool.)

Yeah that's part of the "plan" to get extra model folders for some of the Fed ships
to use for the Empire stuff.
Part of me is simply amused at the confusion that 6 identical CB's fighting in an asteroid belt
with fast drones will have though..

Hexx -- I really don't see the problem -- 6CB on the map -- all fed ships -- simple answer is to kill every single one of the stupid buggers except the one I am flying.. Any chance you can increase the number of TBOMBS for this server?

I may want to get a little twitchy and just start the TBOMBS on friend and foe alike..


IE
KHH_Minime "Duck what are you doing I am flying beside you"
KHH_ShadowLord"Sorry mini you were in a fed ship -- it said you were allied to me and I took that as an insult and started to Tbomb it -- must be the Klingon sitting in the captains chair"

Time to check out the F-GSC.   It has seven transporters, if I recall correctly......

Only propblem is that it only has 24 marines... but it is great at stealing spares from the enemy.. that is if the scripts will allow it..

as for the matches of having 6 of the same ship in a mission, that is what F11 with F1 view is for.. it will display Allied above friendly ships to help prevent you from selecting a friendly target.

Hmm, well yes that would be one way....
or we could find some computer guy who could write an installer that would duplicate the current Federation model folders.. hmm wonder if
I know anyone with that ability and dedication to the community..

First thing first Hexx . . . .

Make sure you have two RMs lined up who have sworn in blood to run their respective side as nutterly as possible.

Otherwise . . . don't bother.

Learned that the hard way in GW5.
