I hope it can project an image of one of your ships unto an enemy ship. Let the enemy destroy it's own ships.

Without some serious jamming, it'd probably only work till the first hit before they'd start screaming 'friendly fire' on all frequencies.
Though, with a big enough salvo...

Even at that they are taking time to not fire at you to fire at eachother which inturn is doing double damage to them since you are attacking yet

Has anybody seen where I put my screwdriv... *ehem* flux cuppler? XDThe ship seems familiar... Has its design been taken out of the star trek franchise? If so, where can it be seen?

Ooh, RedEyedRaven's post reminded me: Are we going to hear anything about the Okinawa soon? Is it tentatively slated for inclusion in this next patch, or is the Mixed-Tech going to be disabled for the time being while you work out its new implementation (since you turned its shipyard into the Casseiopea (sp?) yard)?

yep, we are also working on major redos regarding mixed-tech and the okinawa is planned to be part of that its not yet sure whether mixed-tech will be in the first release of the next major version or not

Honestly, if temporarily cutting it allows you to get the next release out to us a good bit more quickly, then I say go right ahead and cut it.

This "temporarily cutting" needs to be clean then, because at the moment there are many empty slots in the mixed-tech-system (regarding some special weapons and some vessels). I'd agree that mixed-tech is a different chapter in terms of redoes, however I'd also like to see it come with the next major release - I don't mind the delay, personally. The longer it takes with the release, the less bugs/balance issues it will have by default. Also, there are many good games to play besides FO. Some are free, too.

Thats a cool looking ship. Sounds like one of these and a trio of Sabers will be great for expansion defense.

Cool looking ship! It has a very utilitarian look to it, which makes me believe that it was a planetary research vessel, not often seen on the front lines. Doing the boring scouting missions before it was refitted. Great design!
