Steve Schacher Posted April 20, 2000 Report Share Posted April 20, 2000 Of course, the most important tip is to read the manual 10 times. Put a copy in the bathroom and read it during bio breaks.Also, learn how to search the forum for previously discussed topics. If you have a question, then dozens before you had it too.But, after all that, don't be afraid to ask. Everyone here is extremely helpful.Oh, and don't forget... Have fun!!!

Mano Faber Posted April 23, 2000 Report Share Posted April 23, 2000 It's a shame that the Academy was never finished. Maybe i should finish it before BCM arrives but by then a lot of things will be changed in bc3k. Well better late then never, right?I was unplugged (no internet) for a couple of months so i was unable to do anything. >"Nakonec pravda vitezi" (in the end the >truth wins)I like this Ben, it gives hope : ) However, i was working on a unix machine and a ran the command 'fortune' which randomly generates 'fortune cookies'. It came up with something like this. I fear this is also true"you know what the difference is between a lie and a cat? a cat only has nine lives"Mano Faber GCV Aegis [This message has been edited by Mano Faber (edited 04-23-2000).][This message has been edited by Mano Faber (edited 04-23-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mano Faber Posted April 25, 2000 Report Share Posted April 25, 2000 I found out why i didn't continue in the first place. It's time consuming and kinda difficult starting again , it has been awhile. Just yesterday i was completely frustrated because i bought Gunship! it's it was nothing like i expected. I'm more then ever commited to support the games i like , most definitly the BC series. Guess i'll have to take little steps first.

GHighnote Posted April 26, 2000 Report Share Posted April 26, 2000 Yahoo, Mano!Thanks for reviving your efforts at the Academy!Just wanted to let you know that your carpel-tunnel fingers & monitor-dilated eyes are very appreciated.

thanatos Posted April 26, 2000 Report Share Posted April 26, 2000 Mano,Let me add to the admiration being bestowed upon you for your labors of The Academy. They really helped translate the comprehensive manual into an easy to follow recipe, especially for my initial BC3 flights revolving around mining drones, shuttles, and probes. Thanks for your time you spent on your site, and the help your Academy has provided to us newbie commanders.Cmdr.

Mano Faber Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Thanx,A good manual doesn't always cover strategy and tactics. Guess these have to be developed with trial and error or should i say learn as you go. I myself like to see a summary of best practices a things that you run into as a gamer. I think with BCM strategy and tactics need to be changed. With the introduction newsunits in the Fog Of War we will truely be able to make strategy and tactics. Interesting units are STO missile, Area Defense Shield, Combat Assault Buggie (CAB or humvee), Early Warning Radar. This is really what i want to document and an online site is the ideal medium since it's very flexible. So i will continue to work on this site as often as i can. Maybe in another name if Derek decides to use the name for more offical purposes, but will update it one way or the other.

Supreme Cmdr Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Great news Mano!!As for the name, don't worry, you can hang on to it for now because I don't have any plans for it.And yes, BCM opens up a whole new ballgame indeed. btw, jamming STO missiles has a 95% failure rate, which means, if you see one coming, its going to hit you. Period. And you can't just duck out of orbit either. I'm not saying anything else, my lips are sealed. Lets just say that if you are foolish enough to allow even one of them to leave the surface, you most likely won't live to talk about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mano Faber Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Cool!!! talking about ECCM capable missiles... this is going to be dangerous. Guess i'll gonna use special forces to take out the STOs and beam them back to the BC if they make it back : ) Mano Faber GCV Aegis Prime Fleet Official BC3K Tester [email protected] www.globalxs.nl/home/m/mfaber73/academy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
