by transfering all cloning modules, deflector arrays, iridium, ODS systems and OTS systems from galcom to Genesis i can make a pretty penny in a short amount of time [ 03-11-2002, 23:23: Message edited by: insecttoid3 ]

i like the garid and the firestorm mainly for their looks. if i wasnt going for looks then the sunflash and megaron would be the ships i most use after that for their power

attack neutral freighters and such. they dont fight back and give experience my pilots are getting alot of kills

and a black garid with purple lightning bolts painted between the turrets!!!

ah a nice 40 second dl and im on my way to fearing anything outside earth even more than usual and duncan idaho. im probably worse at starcraft than you, i have only ever won once against the computer, it has beaten me every other time [ 02-27-2002, 17:15: Message edited by: insecttoid3 ]

oh lol maybe i should read the topic of the question next time

depends what your asset is if it is a CC, use one of the shuttles to fly somewhere, buy an engine, and fly back and install it. if you have a fighter or something, i wouldnt know

i simply take all defector arrays, cloaning modules, iridium, ods missiles, and ots systems from galcom and i drop em off at genesis. an easy 100,000,000 in an hour or 2, earning about 8% more each run then the last

well i feel humiliated i had spent about 2 hours trading between genesis and galcom and had earned me 100+ million credits, and then gotten all the upgrades, and all the fuel/iridium/plutonium that i could ever need. i saved and then for the 2nd time ever, i left the earth system. i headed to lennen, accidentaly destroyed the station there, and had to save and quit in the mittle of a skermish with some fighters there. when i came back on later and tied to load it up, it kept crashing half way through the load up process. i loaded up the save from right before leaving earth and that one worked fine. being a bit angry, i decided i needed a target for my rage. my choice was the neutral scientest station above pluto. it didnt put up much of a fight since it only launched 2 fighters. i got it to sos and captured it. i decided to take all the quasar and vagrant missiles they had, and then launched. as im flying out, i see yellow balls of flame passing me up, so as soon as i could, i turned around. the station was gone, the 2 scientist fighters had gone and blown their own station up, and now one of them was coming after me while the other was guarding the rebuilding station (which looked kind of odd as TER/MIL) the fighter tore between my pta shots, ripped out my shields, and testroyed most of my systems before i could think to do anything. it then left me sitting there, un able to do anything. the only sysem i could still use was periscan, and i discovered that none of my people were dead. in fact, none was below 70% health. also, i still had all of my shuttles and fighters, although i couldnt launch them.i couldnt call a tow ship, probably because i no longer had a comlink computer, and so my only option was to scuttle, since my reactor was leaking everywhere. that must have been a MAD scientist hehe.

lol, and i thought i was scared to leave earth space before, now ill be terrified

its too bad you cant sell your crew

some people (like me) dont post because we have nothing to say that is relevant. i come here at least once a day, i just dont post. ive actualy been lurking here since e5 was a newbie, i just never thought of regestering for a while after that and when i wanted to i couldnt because i only had my yahoo and hotmail acounts.

lol i can just see you walking through your ship with boxes and missiles in stacks lining the hallways. too bad you cant use resnigs quarters as a storage place and make him sleep outside on the roof

i never realy use missiles. at the beggining of any game i sell all missiles, unload missiles from my CC and sell them, unload missiles from my FC and sell them (if i have fighters, normaly i fly a garid), and unload missiles from my OC and sell them. i get lots of money this way and if im not doing any trading, i at least get a phased array ion disrupter artifact.

same here ep5

im going to transport everyone on my ship exept me down to the surface then launch an OTS missile at them > maybe ill make a story out of some screenshots i take

you will be able to command a station in BCM XP1 i believe

how about a space station with a cloaking device someonce coming you dont like? just turn on the cloaks and they cant dock

ah! that frigate sounds perfect for me

thats not what i was wondering about. i had only been playing that game for about 5-10 minutes. what makes my wonder is how all 3 of em got fatigued so fast...the idea that cmes to mind isnt so pleasant

on that note... i was just flying along to wraith station. as i was going i noticed that my shuttle 4 wasnt ready to launch. when i went to my tactical computer and looked at my marines, i discovered that, while all the marines in my other shuttles had fatigue factors of 2-3, the 3 marines in my shuttle 4 had fatigue factors in the 90's. they also had life factors in the 80's. ive had NO intruders in this particular game so that makes you wonder...

i use the super carriers which have plenty of marines so i usualy leave 3 marines in each shuttle at all times. when using my trusty garid cruser i just leave launch control off. i have never once had a craft stolen

i just tried it and i had the same problem

aaaaaaaaah. THAT would be my problem with the patches. hehe *wanders off to get directX 8.1, feeling stupid*
