Jerold Keenan Posted December 12, 2001 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Just while i'm poking through the Roster and the Database, could one of the Fleet Commnaders please change my ship type and launch base to this: Ship Type: Battlecruiser Mk II Launch Base: ISS HQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 I'd like a super carrier. What do other fleet types who have the game recommend - Firestorm or Aestrom?-GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerold Keenan Posted December 12, 2001 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Judging by the Appendix on Nova's site (Outdated), I suggest you go with the firestorm if you want a super carrier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckthesystem Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 I second that motion! firestorm all the way. It's slow, but so is a tank and thats what the firestorm is, an uber tank. and you can't go wrong with 8 super fighters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Jamont Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Let's head this one up Fleetcommander can choose from anything they like Commander and wing commanders can only choose a normal carrier not super.Don't forget we have limit access to fleets supplies in MP , including AssetsBut my choice remains the MK3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckthesystem Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 so does that mean I can't keep my firestorm? you want a mk3 right? thats a heavy carrier. So can I have your super carrier then?PS Jerold check YOUR messages [ 12-12-2001: Message edited by: buckthesystem ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Jamont Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 No , i mean the super carriers are only aviable to the FC's ill ask the S.c. for confirmation of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there isn't - bad luck. and remember, many assignments will change as our numbers increase - for multiplayer I want assignments to the Fleet Groups based on time zones.Whats all this about then?

Commander Jamont Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 The asset discussion is useless for MP right now i talked to the s.c. about it and this subject will be taken care of if the time will come. for RP it doesnt matter i think but keep in mind that if you have different assets in mp and rp you can't link them together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a Firestorm in my campaign, but agree we don't everyone commanding Super Carriers. At least in Intel it doesn't matter much. I'd take a Cruiser if you could cloak to da*n things. I don't plan on engaging in to many toe to toe battles! [ 12-13-2001: Message edited by: Rip ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerold Keenan Posted December 13, 2001 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2001 As I've mentioned in another post, Starions at this point in time have been restricted by DeSylva... Only Wing Leaders and higher can use them at the moment, but all the Wing Leaders are using Firestorms anyway... hehehe.Don't feel to bad your not the only one who wants a Starion and can't get one, Jacen wants one two, you know how it is... supply and demand. Well according to DeSylva we don't have the supplies to meet the demand... and so far, we have only two Starions in the whole bloody fleet: Jamont's and Ristar's.HEY DESYLVA! Would it be possible to have a couple Starions in Intelcom? Right now, we're outnumbered by Defence Command a little over 2:1... and half their number are bloody Firestorms... hehehe . I think it would be a little fairer if CIOPS were given, at least for now a number of Starions we could award to members who prove themselves worthy, lets say three or so? That way, even though we're fewer in number... we have technology good enough to do our job well. Btw, fix your signature... the proper link to the CIOPS animated logo is here: http://www.hivemedia.co.za/images/ciops_web.gif[ 12-13-2001: Message edited by: Jerold Keenan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted December 13, 2001 Report Share Posted December 13, 2001 Was that for me? Is Starion another name for the Mk3? If so I don't see what the big deal about them is. I guess I'll have to give it some more thought, because the remaining options I've never flown before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerold Keenan Posted December 13, 2001 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2001 A yeah, sort of... ummm... Yes the mk 1 2 and 3 battlecruiser all have alternate names: Constellation - Mk I Galactan - Mk II Starion - Mk IIII've listed you as a Starion in the roster... for now... it depends how DeSylva reacts to my request, but still, I don't see what all the fuss about starions is either, yeah their new, but their nothing really special!Ok, could someone upload the new Roster page I've put up at the insystemsupport yahoo group?thanks.

Rip Posted December 13, 2001 Report Share Posted December 13, 2001 ok, They seem to me to be designed as a fast stealthy carrier. Ideal for Intel. Extra cloaking fuel and all. Most of the other heavy carriers strengths are directly battle related. Hopefully not of a much use to me.I come from a submarine background and hope to play stealthy and chose my battles and do so sparingly. I should be letting you guys know where to get your shuttle to tow those Firestorms to [ 12-13-2001: Message edited by: Rip ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 If it ends up I can't have a Starion, then I'm leaning towards a Nightstar. What does everyone think? I don't see many of them, but it seems to favor my approach. Am I missing a glaring weakness, or does no one choose it just because it's ugly?

Guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 Super Carriers will be grantd to experienced or higher ranking members of the Fleet. As was quoted above, if there is a slaot for a super Carrier in your assigned Flight Group, then you may have a Super Carrier. If there are only Carriers left, you get a carrier. The same for cruisers, etc.It is important that we have the number of Super Carrier class ships that are allowed for on the roster. These ships are advance deployed ships that can function indpendently from GalCOM loyalist forces for a lonf period of time wiuthout resupply, and the higher numbers of fighters they carry are essential to the structure of the fleet, allowing Fleet Groups to be flexible in their deployment. Essentially, every Super Carrier, as well as being a massive ar machine, also doubles as an ISS/GalCOM base of operations in allied and hostile territory.As far as Intelcom members are concerned - they may choose any ship but try not to issue too many Mk 3s, Jerold - as you know, they are experimental ships and should not be too prolific amongst our mmbers.Okay - put me down for a Firestorm.-GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
