' Wrote:BHG Bomber has full EMP guns, SNAC, and a torp. I can change that easily to a TCD, although I'm wondering if that's necessary.
BHG Fighter (Manta) right now has full Bucks and I'm thinking torp, although if you guys think a Mini would be better, I can do that easily.
How do those 2 ships stop enemy GBs from sliding around?
How do they stop any enemy capship from simply cruising away or around them in circles everytime it looses shield?
Manta without shieldbusters will have very hard time downing shields on Nomad ships, and Debilitators sync in both speed and refire with Buckshots.

If it's possible to do that without having to have people download something that then screws up their main game files, we'll consider doing it, because it won't hurt much.
Bur remember, first and foremost, we have to maintain the integrity of the main server and the main game files. If, since this is still a one-of event that we are not able to do that, then people can fly the ships they have available.
Also remember that we're not trying to balance things here perfectly. It's NOT NEEDED for an event, and doesn't really matter a whole lot in the main scheme of things - again, this event will only run for maybe 72 hours, and then it's done. Player base deleted. Lots and lots of ships destroyed, lots of carpal tunnel for people, and hopefully a lot of people will have had fun with it.
And I'm quite certain that when the Nomads get going, that there's going to be a LOT of people flying blue ships, to the detriment of humanity... :P

One suggestion I have, based on last events feedback and observations.
/restart commands would be good to have the IDs.
The ID's will rep-ninja to extreme hostile on anything except their own faction. Viola!
no more docking on enemies bases.
The rest of the thread has this reaction from me : (o.O)

Actually, those ID's WERE rep-ninja'd a bit, based upon IMG rolling over and baring their throat to the GRN. The written 'history' stated that IMG, to preserve their corporation, gave docking rights to the GRN. That's why the GRN ships were able to dock at Holman - it was part of their 'deal'. Otherwise the GRN would have been hostile to everyone.
Or did no one notice that the GRN fighters and bombers were actually spawning at Java, for just that reason? :)

I said it was going to be in about four weeks, last week. So that would tend to indicate that it'll be about three weeks from now...
Quote:Let's just say that, at this time, we'll plan on having the next pre-4.86 event in about 4 weeks. Oh, and this will give some of you a hint...
Bounty hunter ships are done, just doing a bit of tweaking on them.
Order ships are partially done, still doing some tweaking on them.
Nomad ships haven't even been started yet, but they won't take long to do (according to the people that are telling me what they want.)
Camera ship is done. Piece of cake, really, for that one.
In discussions right now about tweaks that we can and can't do in systems - some things (like locking down gates) may not actually be possible. If not, the rules will reflect that.
Of course, this will also be a relaxed set of rules event as well. That does NOT, however, mean that there are no rules.

Have you accounted for the people who want to use BHG equipment as Order, or vice versa? In the KNF-GRN event, quite a few people took one side's ships and used them against the others.
