Why wouldn't someone use it in a game? We all have some degree of humour.

It doesn't match with the style of the other shipsets.


I guess you were one of those kids that played with missmatching pLastic soldiers.

[dogscoff]

I'd use it in a game, definitely. I love the comic and I love the set.

OK S_J, next on your to-do list (after the psychobear set, of course) is a "Tagon's Toughs" scenario/mod, where the player starts with nothing but a single self-sufficient O'Benn Taussegenian Thunderhead Superfortress (with fabber and warp-opener), a few units of infantry, some mini-tanks and a troop transport. The rest of the map is occupied by established, well-teched, well-armed and mostly unfriendly AIs. Your mission is to take over the entire quadrant and build up the fleet necessary to finally destroy the gatekeepers' Buuthandi, or at the very least to share your portion of blam around the galaxy as evenly as possible (all for the right price, of course).

[Timstone]

Hahaha... your portion of blam. That really sounds cool.

.....not-at-all-threatening suggestions to S_J about a psychobear shipset. (It would be worth it just for the designname file: "Sceptre of Unrelenting Pain" etc)

Yes. I had the set done like this since mid november-ish, and Howard just got back to me.

Yeah, I know I've got a mix of UNS and Ob'enn equipment, but they do mix well and there aren't quite enough strictly-UNS designs to fill out the whole set.

Perhaps with the coming war against the Psychobears, we'll collect enough for two full sets.

The escort and frigate are small and civilian enough to bother with paint jobs, I suppose.
The big ships are mostly annie plant and warship armor.

I haven't done any AI files yet, but the 7 habits in the speech file was on the top of my list

Verra kewl, SJ.

Whoa, hold on a minute.
What's up with the small pic for fighters?
Are those 3 fighters in there?

That's genious!
Does it mean that in tactical battles or in strategy movement you see 3 fighters moving together?

I want that for the EDF shipset!!!!!!!

That's odd. I thought it was the regular way to do it for some reason.
I must have picked that up while thinking about the SE3 mod.

And, yes, you'll see little mini-squads flying around.

This set has been updated to use the spacestation from the Feb 6th comic

These guys look pretty cool. I want to see them fight the Space Vikings.
