 January 21, 2011 - 9:39pm | With the sathar desirous to capture and examine an assault scout, witnessed in the famous incident with the Osprey and the sathar agent, Lt. Klast, why hasn't the sathar captured a pirate assault scout? And why haven't they just supplied one of their agents with the material to sell for enough credits to buy the tech they want to get their tentacles on? It would be simple and easy to do. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

 January 12, 2011 - 7:57am | My January topic of discussion. Picture if you would....Earth year 2011, with everything that is going on today, when one late night, the communications officer at the Arecebo Observatory recieves a long signal pulse that could not be background noise from the universe. After several months of of studying these strange intermittent signals a team of scientists, and linguists determine that it is in reality a friendship message made using data from the voyager probe from a race calling itself the Vrusk.

 December 31, 2010 - 12:12pm | Since I have a nutty need to get details in my game, for Knight Hawks I have several of the abbreviated titles used in the game plus some of my own. Would love to hear some of the ones other people use. Also a discussion of how and why such titles are used and who gets to use them would work too. UPFS---United Planetary Federation Ship SAV---Sathar Attack Vessel CMS---Clarion Marine Ship ZMV---Zuraqqor Military Vessel MLS---Mhemne Liberty Ship DRIRM---Democratic Republic of Inner Reach Militia MS---Malthar Ship Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go? |
 December 20, 2010 - 4:07pm | Would oort clouds of debris (should they actually exist as hypothesized) cause a problem to leaving a solar system? It seems to me they would. You don't want to be traveling toward jump speed and then be ripped apart by random debris. I think they would have to navigate through and beyond the massive debris field before approaching jump speed, and of course, this would require quite a bit of travel. Of course, solar systems are so close near the center of a galaxy that the debris fields would probably be closer together than they are to their own stars.

 December 17, 2010 - 9:57am | Anyone played/playing Fallout: New Vegas? They have a set of weapons called the Recharger Pistol/Rifle. Each weapon recharges 1 shot per turn not fired. The Pistol has 8 charges, the rifle 20. Of course, they don't have variable settings, but, a constantly regenerating power cell would give you some options. Pistol - 2d10/Shot Ammo - 8 Max Pistol, 20 Rifle(recharge 1 shot per unfired turn) Range - (see Laser Pistol or Rifle) Weight - Add 1 kg to pistol, 2.5kg rifle Cost - 900CR pistol, 1200CR rifle You can't argue with the invincibly ignorant. - William F.
