ESA lands a probe on Titan. Good news for all you methane breathers out there.

Re: OT - Methane Rock Moons are best!
Idiots! My Titan motherland is protected with WMG weapon platforms, so this pathetic probe has no chances.

Re: OT - Methane Rock Moons are best!
I stayed up that night to watch the probe data come in. Pity I felt to tired to stay the whole time. I wanted to be the one of the first one see it so that when they found giant Titanians I would be able to say
"Hey, I was one of the first people to see them" 
Correct me if I'm wrong but why are Methane planets purple in game yet we can see now they are orange?. |

Re: OT - Methane Rock Moons are best!
Maybe Titan is orange because of the light reflected from Jupiter?

Did you mean to say Jupiter intentionally or was that a typo? Titan is quite a ways away from Jupiter, it being a moon of Saturn and all.

Except the probe is tiny, so your Ship/Base/Planet targeting WMGs can't even see it!

Re: OT - Methane Rock Moons are best!
All these moons are yours except Titan. Attempt no landing there.
Fools! now you did it. All your base belong to us!

No, no typo at all. Just me showing how stupid I am.

Re: OT - Methane Rock Moons are best!
Where can we find the image that shows an orange Titan? All the ones I've seen are black and white...
