Returning to Vendetta after a year hiatus I am struck by how good things look: the sheen of ice roods, detail on ships, and vivid backdrops. Playing late at night, there were even vets to skirmish with. Now if only we can get Conflict Diamond to demonstrate the combat effectiveness of a player-owned Trident. Good work this year, Guild!

During this week return of veterans, lets have a few events. I'd suggest a nightly Nation War - say 10:00 PM EST?

Other ideas?

Welcome back, glad things are looking good :). I spruced up everything I could in the time available.

I also intend to drop some more Trident weaponry before long. Maybe next week, if possible.

/me 's ears perk up: "more Trident weaponry" ?!?!?! Woo hooo!

I'm willing to sacrifice a Trident to fun & games this week (even I'm a little tired of wearing pink), but until these new weapons and eventual shields get added, a sustained combat operation is a one-way ride.

Maybe Patrizio, Xandar, Ipslet & I can pick teams of 4 gunners and divvy up any other interested pilots as escorts. We could do a 2-cappies-per-side round, then with time to get our insurance ships, have a 4-way fight. With a once-a-week limit on replacement, that would be all the fun we could provide, unless the devs want to lift the insurance mission time limit for Christmas Freebie week (hint hint!).

Not sure if Christmas day is going to allow participation in the regularly scheduled Nation War, but if so, The Compass Rose will join the fray.

Merry Christmas, VO!

I like your idea, CD. Set a time that works for your pilots and invite the community!

Perhaps if sustained combat operations are really not practical currently, you could also set up some kind of contest that demonstrates the current utility of owning a trident.

+1 billion to CDs Idea!!

+1 to CD as well. I wanna fight alongside the Defiant.

The insurance mission has been modified and pushed out with a requirement of 7 minutes instead of 7 days :). Have fun.

Thanks Inc!

Awesome, Inc.

Say when, CD!

CD, feel free to submit the events with the actual Events System, so other people will know the dates/times, etc.

What a great chance to have automated, scripted missions as EVENTs... with a Host: event-focused "guide"

I will confer with Patrizio, Xandar, and Ipslet as soon as I can to see if we can schedule a coordinated multi-cappie event. Meanwhile anytime I'm on I will call for a crew and we will go wreak havoc best we can. I got a few gunners to ride along on ill-fated outings last night. Burned a few tridents. Much fun!

@Alloh: stop it. Just stop it. This is not about your suggestion agenda.

"@Alloh: stop it. Just stop it. This is not about your suggestion agenda."
+a lot. Alloh, leave your failed ideas in their graves.

Haven't played in quite some time, but saw the email and decided to check things out. Another merry christmas from Guild! Thanks!

Hey Starfisher, it has been many moons. Merry Christmas!

I have also returned to playing after a many year hiatus =)

Thanks, CD for the capship tour thru b8 last night.

I noticed that the turrets did not take any damage. That needs to be fixed. Damage distributed to the turrets would improve the life expectancy of a trident.

Yeah, they're non-destroyable on player capships.
