I can't wait until this happens and Blackhole decides to stationcamp the Deneb run with THOSE. No one'll ever finish.

Very funny, Leber.

Actually, it was very insaulting since when I can attend, I'm going to be racin'

The thing with avalons is adding some means of combating them. In other words.. anti-avalon support. I want torpedoes to be destructable, so fighters can chase them down. Right now, they aren't. Without that, the ship has to just get out of the way.. which with a HAC, is practically impossible.. which results in the Avalon being too "sure-kill" for my taste. Not enough countermeasure, no balance.

I want to bring them back too. They will return soon enough, no worries.

Okies, until then I'll um..

uh...

I guess I'll go make some mines with jackhammers.

YAR! I miss them! But I can't wait for them to return!

Until a suitable countermeasure is available, (and I agree it is absolutely necessary) could you put them back in at a rediculous cost (like, million for the launcher, and a million for ammo)? That way, anyone who wants to drop a million credits per unit ammo can buy one and launch it, but the huge cost will keep them from getting out of hand before they are counterbalanced.

Indeed, and it would help to weed out the fortunes of the game's various billionares who have horded so much swag over the years. I second tumble's sentiment.

Does this game have billionaires? I have been wanting to be a billionaire, but haven't managed it yet! I've only just broken 100 million once, and then I spent a pile, and all of it was exploit money anyway, so I gave it away. Now Im back up a ways, but I EARNED IT!

Still, I would spent a couple million on a doomsday weapon!

I have a better idea for the avalons.

give them a duration of 90 seconds and a speed of 0.

make them totally dependent on the speed of the launching ship for ALL of thier velocity.

Slap a gargantuan mass on the launcher (at least 10k) to severely inhibit the speed and agility of a ship thats carrying them.

then add a temporary workaround in the reputation system that ANY avalon that detonates inside the NFZ instantly causes a loss of 300 rep points to the person that fired it.

Wouldn't an avalon strip a capship off all its turrets in one hit?

No. It took 3 Avalons, strategically placed, to get all the turrets.

ah ok

or one bus
