War Against Paranid!

Post by (/\)arped » Fri, 30. Apr 04, 22:21

Personally, I think the Paranid are no good, dirty, slimy, three-eyed, paranoid, evil and conmen.

Just remember the LFL device that you buy from that Paraind. He says: "Usually costs 3,300 credits, but for you special price! 33,000 credits!
Consequently, do you think we should lead a rebellion against the paranid. (And set up a system like the UNCC or NOVEAF, but against paranid.)

Why, what do you sell? :?

Please note that your answer may completely change my opinion of Paranid, if I can make a profit from them. If not, they die. :twisted:

No I don't, i sell their captured ships and their owners... :twisted:

Anyway, I haven't started attacking them yet, I'm going to wait until I've got lotsa money and a massive fleet. By that time, it won't matter about a small loss of profit in Paranid space-i'll be making money everywhere else!!

I have big dreams.

I can't stand the Paranid. Their only saving grace is the Demeter...and just barely. :)

I personally don't mind the Paranid, or any of the other races that inhabit the X universe. Each race has it's bad side (socially). The Split are arrogant and prideful. The Boron are sappy and ineffectual. The Teladi are avaricious and greedy. The Paranid are untrusting and paranoid and the Argon are... well.... human and carry all the good and bad that comes with it. I think the X universe is an interesting place and would love to see more "fluff", as it were, about the various races.

I love the Paranid station and ship design (yes, even the Capital ships) and I personally think the fighters are some of the best I've spent my credits on.

Being honest I would say the Split are more worthy of extermination.

Anyway, this is only a game and I have better things to direct my hatred at.

Like this smiley > :lol:

33,333 credits because of Mancossak's obsession with '3'(Paranid holy number, don't look at me :roll: )
I've already blown up everything in Friar's Retreat with a well-placed Khaak Invasion Spawn(I made sure it didn't block the 'bridge' between Barren Shores and Interworlds.)

I prefer war on pirates, since they respawn. Limited war on Xenon is ok too, but I leave Xenon stations alone because killing Xenon stations seems to mess up xenon ship generation.

Hopefully that's one of the problems addressed in the 1.4 patch.

Don't kill the Paranid! They might be reiligious freaks and have really bad comebacks, but look at their ships and equipment! They produce the pegasus, perseus, and oddyseus! Also, they make the PSGs and the docking computer.

If you nuke a planet and it's inherited by the cockroaches, the end result after said cockroaches evolve is.......Paranid.


Still, they make nice tech. Thus, I suffer their presence for a while.

Wipe them out of your game. And when X2:OL come ill join you. The old good thing about them is the funky doors on their stations. Death to the annoying things that are obsessed with the number 3!

Anyone know what the paranid religion is, anyway? It has something to do with an emperor named Xaar, possibly the current Paranid Priest Emperor. He's apparently made all other paranid think he's a god! And what's with the "sacred mines" on one of the paranid planets?

The Paranid are Frisbitarians. They believe that when you die, your soul gets stuck up on a roof somwhere and you can't get it down...
