Crazy paranid destroyer raping argon prime.

elfro89 · Post by **elfro89** » Tue, 31. Aug 10, 09:14

it seems there is a paranid destroyer in argon prime destroying everything but the argon navy ships. and they are standing back watchin them as they attack the shipyard and equipment dock.

is this a glitch? what the hell?

GoD: Global Decision Engine. It along with the RNG decides how your universe turns out, thus making each players universe unique in its own way.

If you wanna get rid of it...

Grab a fast ship, shoot it unil it turns red, then run away (fast enough to not get blown to bits, slow enough that it can keep up)

Move it into range of the Stand-offish Argon fleet..

Comm the Paranid and apoligize...

..Watch the fireworks and clean up whatever is left over.

Sounds like a hoot

Say is this TC or Reunion as I have never seen this in Reunion.

hi man, its terran conflict! Loving it so far, so many things are improved upon over reunion. The fact there is now missions you can take that actually allow you to make profit by building others stations with a mammoth, makes it worth while to buy one. same with the argon express and all the other ships that were pointless to own as they wouldn't make a return.

there's more ships, stations, and all other kinds of cool features that I've not used/experimented with yet. some say its too easy to make money in this game, I've always found the start of a game to be the most tedious, your more likely to sit doing nothing with the seta drive active. it was awesome once you were up and running, but I prefer to be able to make money at the same time as my business does, and the fighter patrol and defence missions are perfect.

cant make a return on tl's is x3r???

the elephant was always my first capital ship purchase.....jump drive with space for practically unlimited jump energy

hangars for my 3 personal ships, so i can hotswap based on circumstance. 2 bays for falcon haulers to collect all fallen wares (not to mention the cargo bay to carry all of it). and 9 bays to hold unshielded, unarmed bailed ships so they can actually live to be sold to the shipyard. flak and ppc's to protect it from whatever i'm not currently shooting at. plus i could jumpdrive stations into place, making building faster and cheaper.

TL's were SUPERB investments in X3R!!

he means more money making opportunities with it.

not just using it as a personal station builder or pocket carrier

not to mention that the elephant in x3TC has been kinda nerfed in the role of capital ship with the removal of all round PPCs

can mount ibl's......

but yeah.....with boa's available elephants r not useful anymore

as a pure station haulage machine the elephant isn't even in the top 5 of ship choices and with all other roles now subverted by new ships/new dynamics the elephant is currently a vry sad panda

If you are like me, and you hate the idea that race ships will sit idle while other ships annihilate their sector, you may want to try LV's superlative RRF script. Though it modifies your game, it corrects stated problem and creates a much more dangerous (and believable) universe.

but not as good as in terran conflict where you can get 13 mil for building a station for someone, much better then wasting 30 mil on a ship. it would take you a good long while to make that money back in the reunion.

Deadbeat_Spinn · Post by **Deadbeat_Spinn** » Wed, 1. Sep 10, 02:16

In Reunion you could make that 30mil back (and more) with just one Assassination mission....but you'd need a very high Fight/Race rank, which does take time however.

Of course you could then do it in the TL, simply by running over the target.

Turbo Booster Mk 2. If you are still too slow keep following it, it has to go to a gate eventually and then you SMASH!
