quote: I just wanted to confirm Ben's posting above. Wraith Fleet really doesn't have rules and reg's that will get in the way of having a good time,And that's pretty much the same case with the Insurgent Fleet. Don't mind our Charter as it's going to be rewritten and simplified very soon. RP ON If you want to join a GalCom fleet and have to follow their regulations (ie, fire only when fired upon, etc.) and other orders of restraint, that's your choice. In the Insurgent fleet, we do have some rules. However, most of the orders given to you are to be completed at your own discretion and any way you see fit in accomplishing the mission. We allow a lot more freedom to our commanders that GalCom does. Most of their orders are given by "behind-the-desk" Admirals whom take all the credit and only worry about how many medals they will be given. In a typical GalCom fleet, you are nothing but pawn. In the Insurgent fleet, you are your own man. RP OFF -Sho

I just finished watching this week's episode on the Tivo. I'm dying to know what the heck that newly deputized cop is up to. He's definately talking to someone on the outside. What's with his fake family? This could get interesting. -Sho

Eclipse is right, Eon Hawk. Where else can you kick around a couple of Galcom fleets? They may think they have the upperhand so far in MP, but we're just pacing ourselves at the moment. Will clamp down on them soon enough! Plus, the more you participate in fleet activities, you stand a good chance of moving up the Insurgent fleet ranks and having more reponsibilities. Personally, I like to reward people who contribute greatly to Insurgent activities. -Sho

This is good stuff, guys! -Sho

Nice! -Sho

quote: Also, do MP events occur regularly or on demand?Right now we've been running a test season of Fleet Action. Once the kinks get worked out of it, it'll be one great way for fleets to interact in MP. More information on Fleet Action is hosted over at the ISS Fleet webpage. quote: Lastly, what do I do to get started?Join a fleet! Take a look at the different fleets to help you decide what fleet is right for you. Also take the time to read the Fleets FAQ as it will answer a lot of your questions. If you still have questions on a particular fleet, post your question in a relevant thread in the appopriate fleet's forum on 3000AD. I, for one, would like to ask you to think about the Insurgents. We're always looking for new members to help in the fight for freedom against Galcom forces! We may be a little outmanned and outnumbered against the various Galcom fleets, but we do pack a bit of punch! -Sho

I don't think you can watch it online anymore at the TV Yahoo page I originally saw it on. The episode is not there anymore. Plus, I think they only showed the first episode before the series premiere. -Sho

quote: One thing I noticed, everybody seems to be a commander of a ship around here. I realize that's the core of the BC series, but what about fighter pilots? How would it work if you choose to go for a pilot career, is your rank still commander? Can you dock on somebody else's ship?If you are talking about the Commander title being in a lot of people's sigs, it's mostly because they are a member of a particular fleet. A fleet member has to have his sig written a certain way as per that fleet's regulations. If you wanted to go for a Pilot's Career and joined a fleet, your best bet would be to ask the Fleet Commander how you should word your sig. Ben is correct. Fleet membership is the way to get involved in MP. BTW, welcome to the forum! -Sho

I agree..the first episode was a bit slow. Like you, I have added it to my TIVO season pass manager. I haven't had the chance to sit down and watch the second episode yet...maybe later on this weekend. -Sho

That wasn't too bad! -Sho

What? No Wraith Fleet After Action Report for the latest session? -Sho

[report] From: Fleet Admiral ShoHashi To: Insurgent High Command Subject: Wraith Incursion in Rovarix Region I've just received a communique from StarStation Antilles in the Rovarix region. They reported that one of the two Interdictor medium fighters that were on patrol detected a cloaked ship in the region. While one of the Interdictors was trying to pinpoint where the cloaked vessel was, a Tarin Mk1 transport, the GVC-Echelon, entered the region. At that time the other Interdictor moved to intercept and engage the Tarin Mk1. Just as it neared the transport, another Wraith vessel entered the system and engaged the Interdictor thus destroying it. More Interdictors were launched from Antilles as the Tarin Mk1 moved away from the gate to establish an orbit around Rovarix and all were destroyed by the escorting Wraith vessel. After orbiting Rovarix for a few minutes, the Tarin Mk1 then started to move away from the planet and towards the gate. More Interdictors were launched and again, all were destroyed before the Wraith vessels finally left the region. Station logs show that the Wraith vessels involved in this incursion were the GVC-Svoboda, GVC-Echelon and the GCV-Args. At this time, our intelligence believes that the Tarin Mk1 either beamed someone down to the surface or beamed someone aboard. More information will be available upon further analysis of the Antilles sensor logs. [end report]

Well, Chav, we gave it our best today, unfortunately, Wraith was better. We'll get them next time! -Sho

Ok, Spectre Fleet accepts that date and time although we will be one man down. See you Sunday on the 3000AD TS server! -Sho

I just finished watching the first episode of this tonight online. Doesn't seem too bad so far, but time will tell. -Sho

I just finished watching the first episode online at Yahoo before it appears on CBS soon. It doesn't seem like it's too bad. Has anyone else watched it yet? Next up..the first episode of Heroes. -Sho [ 09-20-2006, 06:52 PM: Message edited by: ShoHashi ]

[report] From: Fleet Admiral ShoHashi To: Insurgent High Command Subject: Operation Planetfall To consolidate our position in the Nevuela system, it was determined that we needed to land an assault force on the home planet to establish a base of operations. To accomplish this, we needed to land 140,000 units of cargo to include Marines. I wanted to select the best ships for the mission, thus the Sunflash was selected for escort and Tarin mk1s were selected for the cargo. In hindsight, I should have went with MRT-15s, however none were available in the timeframe needed. The mission orders, based upon the selected ships, were to land 7 Tarin mk1s on the surface. Each Tarin mk1 would be escorted by a Sunflash. The first Tarin mk1 made it the the surface, however the escort Sunflash was destroyed trying to pull away a Wraith fleet vessel that had jumped into the region. A second Tarin mk1 and it's escort Sunflash was dispatched. The second Tarin mk1 made it to the surface and the second Sunflash was destroyed in the process of attacking the Wraith vessel. A third wave was again dispatched to the planet but both Insurgent vessels were destroyed by the Wraith vessel blockading the jump gate. Before the Sunflash was destroyed, the Commander sent an up-to-date sitrep. At that time, it was determined that the mission would not be successful so the decision was made to cease Operation Planetfall. Unfortunately, at the moment, we have a contingent of Marines on the surface with no way off the planet. Plans are being drawn up on how we can evacuate them. [end report]
