Great, thanks. Signature updated! Now every member of Delta Wing should update it!!

Nice question, I will try too. Sometimes they deserve to be used as targets! he he he he

Pretty nifty??? I do not think this is what your 4 marines thought while you were using them as targets!! You have not been a good commander! Bad boy!! Eh eh eh, just kidding! Maybe it would be a good idea to get some gammulan prisoners and use them as target!! BTW, I love to take a space walk on my MK2's hull while my mining drones are doing their job!! What a view!!!! See you in space.

Good idea. I am re-designing my old BC3K web site with new graph, new interface, all in flash, and will be dedicated to BCM. The idea to put some hints about Mining/Probes/Marine Despatch techniques is very good. Could also be an idea for some kind of GALCOM Academy website! Anyway some cmdr had their homepage with tips online. Check the Official Battlecruiser Webring See you in space!

Great idea, thanks! I will do it straight away. Cmdr Williams, you've got mail!!

Thanks!! I will surely add the copyright info! Now the hard thing: design the website!

To all the commander of Delta WIng: New logo has GALCOM approval. Right now the logo is located on a temporary server, so do not link your signature yet. I will post when it is uploaded to its final destination. Then all Delta Wing member should modify their sigs. OR The file should substitute the one to which Delta Wing sig already link to (and that logo is located on Cmdr Jaguar homepage). This way we would not need to do any changes to our sigs. But this can be done only by Cmdr Jaguar himself (even if he is a Gammulan now ) Let me know! I will upload the logo on my website anyway this evening (GMT +1). See you in space!!

...and if it's not my boss but my wife???

Yes, it's the way I thought. Thank you very much! Anyway, I do believe this is not the right time to bother SC, he is quite busy with other issues. And also, I still have some work to do on my new website. Thank you again!

I've got a question about copyright on images of the games (screenshot of the bridge view, views of stations, planets, own spaceship, various internal systems, etc.). Can I use any screenshot for my website? Should I submit the whole website to SC for approval before putting it online? To be more specific, the System computer graphic interface (the one that let you access the Logistix, Navitron, etc.) would be great as standard graphic user interface for a website that want to simulate a communication link to a commander spaceship, but.... if I use it, am I breaking any copyright law (I think so, since all the graphic, as part of the game, is copyrighted by Derek and his 3000AD)? Obviously the website would be totally dedicated to BCM, and would contain links to 3000ad.com website with clear copyright information about it. Does anyone have got a clue about this issue?

quote:Originally posted by Rico Jansen: I don't like the idea of nagging to the SC about another logo change or whatever. I'll live with it. Yes, I don't think either that bothering the SC with too many changes' approvals, in this period of time, would be a good idea. Also, inserting the motto "Mars Gradivus" means that we do not need it any more in the signature, below the logo (as it is so far).

Ok gentlemen, I just submitted the new logo. Now let's wait for the approval. I will keep you updated. See you in space. --------------------------------- Wow this is funny, we posted in the same moment Cmdr Jansen. Btw, Mars Gradivus was one of the Mars (roman god) that the ancient roman worshipped. He was the one the roman armies praied before going to battle, as he (Mars Gradivus) was the god who lead to victory from the beginning of the war, while another Mars (the Quirinus one) was presiding over the end of the war. If compared to the ancient greek mythology, Ares (god of war) can be linked to Mars Gradivus. Now, the phrase "Mars Gradivus" is NOT (this is true) a motto, but some kind of calling (way to invoke or appeal to) for his protection. I think it could work, but if you think it's better to use a real motto in latin I can work on it (I studied latin years ago, not sure I remember everything, but I can try....) Let me know!!! Meanwhile the approval process can go on, and if we want a different motto I will work on one that has Mars Gradivus in it so we do not have to change the logo.

I think that Cmdr Rico, as Wing Leader, should decide if the new proposed logo has to be submitted for approval by SC. I will be waiting his decision. Cmdr Williams, I am very sorry if I offended you, I did not mean to. You and Cmdr Badgerius are doing a great job, the web site is beautiful, but also huge, and I was just offering some help. Unfortunately for me it is very difficult to access the Forum on Primefleet.com since for some strange reasons my office firewall banned that forum as a chat line (not permitting us to post anything) while on this forum is permitted to do everything! (I will try to connect to Primefleet forum from home, even if I have a very slow connection). I think that I will concentrate on rebuilding my GCV-Artemis website first (which is quite small) and as soon as I finish there I will be ready to give you all the help you could need (I quite good at Flash - ask Cmdr Tac- and HTML). Hope my previous post did not upset you, really, it was not my intention to offend you in any way. See you in space.

I was wandering around the Forum, and the various web sites dedicated to Battlecruiser series. I think that now that BCM is out, more and more player will join the forum and will probably decide to join some fleet. The most important factor, IMHO, that could bring newbies to Prime Fleet (and even better to Delta Wing) is a good Prime Fleet website, and some commanders' website to add some background. Now I am going to update my website (I will re-write it all in Flash and add some background info and new pics from the BCM screenshot) but... what about the Primefleet.com website?? Who is the webmaster, who is managing it and keeping it updated? Could I help somehow? Please let me know.

Welcome back cmdr!!! Forget motorcycles, go for a new Battlecruiser!! eh eh eh Hope to see you in space soon!!!!

Registered, signature updated! See you in space.

Great, Cmdr Jansen! If you agree, I am changing my signature to the updated version. See you in space commander.

I would like to propose to our Delta Wing a small modification to the Logo. What do you think gentlemen? [ 12-03-2001: Message edited by: Stephanos ]

To confirm my theory I list some website I found on this subject: http://149.144.201.234/~myths/roman.html#Mars http://www.nd.edu/~archives/latgramm.htm http://home.swipnet.se/~w-48250/mythology/m/mars.html And one more thing, wouldn't it be better to have the Delta letter in ancient greek and not in modern alphabet? It would look like a triangle. Waiting for your feedback commanders. See you in space!

quote:Originally posted by Jaguar: I means "Mars, Lead us to Victory" in Latin!! You know, Mars, the god of war? One thing Jaguar: the word "gravidus" in latin means "filled; pregnant; ladened, weighted down with" On the other hand the word "Gradivus" was a surname of Mars (god of agriculture and of war). So probably Delta Wing motto should be Mars Gradivus (which would mean "he who precedes the army in battle") who is also the greek god of war Ares. Let me know what you think. Regards

Wow, what a revolution in the high ranks of the Delta Wing!! Cmdr Jaguar, I want to say it was an honor, and a pleasure, to serve Galcom and the Prime Fleet under your command. Cmdr Rico Jansen, it will be a privilege to work under your command. Hope to see both of you in space soon!

Cmdr Stephanos reporting in: New ship recieved two days ago. stop Have been practicing and fine tuning since then. stop Still some work to do, but believe I'll be ready for combact by monday. stop Waiting for instruction. stop End of transmission. (Wow, BCM is THE simulation, now that I have the game, I need a new PC!!!!! eh eh eh eh eh)

uH-HU I recieved mine three days ago, but had no time to write anything in the forum (guess why, eh eh eh eh). I live in Italy (guess I am one of the first, if not THE first in Italy).

Thanks, now it should be right.

Thanks, Signature updated. Is there a web page where all these thing are explained? I mean, some instructions on how to create a RP Character? I tried to browse the primefleet.com website but I could not load several page.
