I can say that I have played SFB, SFC1, SFC2, SFC2 OP. SFC3, EF, KA, SFA, and D&D.
SFB is SFB. SFC is SFC SFC2 and OP are SFC2 and OP SFC3 is SFC3 so on.
The point some poeple do not SFC3 or D&D and some poeple do.
Some people do not like SFB, SFC1, 2, or OP and some Do.
Why can't we all stop bashing each other.
Can't we all get along?
They are all games let shake hands and get on witrh life.
I like all of the games.

We were discussing Johnny Carson (aka Carnak the Magnificent) and you have to butt in with that old rubbish. Begone with you.

My only reply will be that I dont miss T-bombs, as my Firesoul updated OP shiplist lets me use them to my hearts content. I enjoyed SFC3 till they came out with an "official beta patch" at which point I promptly gave it up. If and when they come out with an OFFICAL "Official patch" I'll try it again.

Anyways, I wont go into my opinon on this, any of you know DO know that Ed worked for Johnny KNOW my opnion, but I just wanted to post to get one shot closer to Captain.

Have a nice day!

SFC being polluted by SFB? I think not. If you want your star trek game put out by another company, may I suggest you go buy an Atari 5600 and play that combat simulator? Or better yet, go play Stellar Track on the Atari 2600, you should get all the fun you deserve...

I put away and uninstalled SFCIII already (had it since Beta). I'm back with EAW and OP. Why? The richness of weapons and other systems inspired by SFB. I'm a baggy Klingon - been playing since 1981 or so. The only thing I wish Khoromag would patch in EAW and OP is RE-VER-SE. I have to admit it does add another element of tactics to the game. And yes, officers would be nice as well.

After I went back to EAW and OP from SFCIII, I found I was getting plastered on a regular basis until I rethought my stategy - both with BEER and by opponents ships.

There is nothing better than watching a ship get destroyed when my ESG impacts your hull.

Hell, if SFC was really canon to Star Trek, we'd end up with lots of tiring speeches and feel-good diplomacy - not combat.

How many times did we actually see an actual battle in ST:TNG? (Puts on Flame-retardant suit)

I too miss my T-Bomb.

Actually I would have to disagree with adding Reverse , if it was done so that you could reverse at full speed. The quarter speed in SFC3 isn't bad, but I could see the Retrograde becoming the common tactic if it was introduced so that you could go flat out in reverse. It would be the final death-knell of the non-PPD plasma races, who have a pretty hard time of it already against good players, without the Plasma Bolt option.

Cyberkada · « **Reply #47 on:** May 09, 2003, 06:25:05 am »

Agreed about quarter-reverse. Probably no more. You could S-L-O-W-L-Y back away from a target. Thats the only thing that I have every seen in Star Trek.

Cleaven · « **Reply #48 on:** May 09, 2003, 06:40:12 am »

That (speed 7) would be too fast as well. Testing would be required Vs SFC weapons systems, but I'm guessing speed 2 or 3 would be adequate to add to the game but not change the tactical balance greatly.

Cyberkada · « **Reply #49 on:** May 09, 2003, 07:08:12 am »

Reverse should be based on hull class and turn mode

1 for BBs up to 7 for nimble ships. Similar to HETs

Cleaven · « **Reply #50 on:** May 09, 2003, 07:19:41 am »

Why Speed 7?

Cyberkada · « **Reply #51 on:** May 09, 2003, 09:15:57 am »

Speed 7 = about 1/4 of speed 31

Cleaven · « **Reply #52 on:** May 09, 2003, 07:55:40 pm »

Hmmm, perhaps a different question will achieve the desired outcome.

Why 1/4 speed?

And to say that it is about speed 7 is inappropriate.

Mentat Jon · « **Reply #53 on:** April 24, 2003, 09:58:02 pm »

Yep,I enjoy the game,but I miss T bombing other ships.

a patch perhaps to return my beloved T-bomb?

my On topic thread for the month.

korus · « **Reply #54 on:** April 24, 2003, 11:22:17 pm »

Bump... I too would like to see its return... Since shuttlepacks are out what about suicide shuttles carrying an antimatter mine? I miss those too... sniff sniff...

OMG, you haven't resurrected the "Miss T-Bombs" thread, have you?

I'll find it on the old forums. It was a classic!!!

E_Look · « **Reply #57 on:** April 25, 2003, 01:15:35 am »

I don't know, Jon, as I can't run SFC3 (yet), but I literally just finished getting plastered by t-bombing Klingons in SFC1 and somehow it doesn't seem too fair, especially if all the ships facing you are doing it. It seems it's an AI favorite. What, hit and run on their transporter???

Magnum357 · « **Reply #58 on:** April 25, 2003, 01:27:21 am »

Well, T-bombs and Hit'n'Run raids have been in the game system ever since SFB. Its too bad Taldren never implemented Security teams with your Boarding Parties on your ship to certain systems, it would definitly help prevent raping of systems with H&H tactics.

Magnum357 · « **Reply #59 on:** April 25, 2003, 01:29:40 am »

Also, I'm not sure if it works, but I think I recal Erratic Maneuvers does reduce the odds (or possibly eliminates) H&R raids from occuring on the target ship. You might want to see if EM protects you from H&R.
