' Wrote:That, to me, doesnt sound like the attitude close allies should be taking towards each other. While some technologies do need to be restricted and kept out of the hands of your average lolwutters, there's no reason others cannot be shared.
Also, Coladas are more important to the corsairs than tizonas, being the most powerful shieldbusters in the game (short of the inferno cannon) right now - and you'll notice that I kept those restricted.
So far, all of order high command, and most of the corsair elders, seem to be supporting the chart in it's current form. I'll give it another couple of days, then post the finalized version.
Colodas are crap currently almost useless. Since bombers can't mount them any longer and it sucks the figther powercore just too fast. Try to fly around corsairs a bit, I doubt you'lll find a lot of people mounting them. Perhaps only on 4 hull busters one pulse 1 missile launcher layouts. But rarely.
Heh close allies.. Well friendly - perhaps. Close allies? Recently I dont see the reason of alliance. Earlier projects is old time history, nowdays only thing which keeps order and corsairs from not shooting each other is hunter activity in omicron delta, but I doubt its enought for an alliance. About the osiris, both factions build them, even if these factions wouldn't be in alliance it would change nothing. Corsairs have the plans and resources to build such ships, in the other hand Order lacks resources. And to keep alliance just for OC / Corsair power balance is stupid idea. Moreover Order and Corsairs do not share a lot of enemies, even there are plans and suggestions to make blood dragons as allies, or even outcasts (those who justify it by storyline).
I would say nomie cannons for tizonas.
What touches the ships. I just do not want to see all lolwutter flying order fighters with corsair iff.
@Blaze: same goes about corsairs. In rp corsairs are the best ship builders in whole sirius. And they are very proud about that. But now for real order VHF outstats Corsair VHF. Only thing which makes Corsair VHF a bit more better is, perhaps, it's hitbox. This will make each less roleplaying corsair (and believe me we have enought of them) to choose Order VHF intead of our own. And this is just nonsense, corsairs should love their shipline.
