Err, given both ships are of equal forces, and that the blowing up ship still fires torpedoes and beam -- shouldn't both of them have exploded ?

I haven't checked the mission in question but it's possible one is either armored or is using a better AI class than the other (and so intercepts more torpedoes.)

[Rodo]

remember torpedoes can be shot down.

[Woolie Wool]

Woolie Wool, in that first shot...... Do i see a gimballed compass thingy in the top right?

It's an attitude indicator. Blue is up. Black is down. The line in the middle indicates the horizon. It's a standard gauge on pretty much any aircraft bigger than an ultralight.

the artificial horizon is a legal requirement in many countries

The other was invulnerable.

Yay, I guessed correct.

[TrashMan]

Overreaction much?

It's called a joke. The overexcessive use of punctuation and the marshmallow bit should have made it obvious enough.

Next time I'm gonna put a big neon sign on it. Then maybe I won't get banned.

Hey, I love most of your ships Tongue. Blade, Cobra, Galaxy, Colossus Mk.2... They're awesome! You're great modeller, but... In my opinion Bobb's Orion is better.

You are free to hate it. Just don't say it's bad because it's "blocky".
Incorrect statmements bug me more than any criticism.

[Dragon]

Your Orion has an adventage of having it's turrets done in a way that allows telling beams, flak guns and blobs apart.
I like ships build in such way, even if it's not FS-ish.

[Firartix]

Yeah, i really think having the flak guns looking like big blob turrets isn't a good idea...
BTW, imo, the torpedo launchers of the Raynor looks just too cool....

[Woolie Wool]

BANG.



I couldn't let those new BP muzzle flashes go unanswered. 360mm autocannons for great justice!

[Dragon]

Looks impressive.

[Herra Tohtori]

360mm autocannons

360 mm autocannon?

Lol what

[Snail]

...Aren't autocannons between machine gun size and artillery shell specification?

[Dragon]

Autocannon is a weapon with fully automatic fire capablity, firing shells instead of bullets.

Ooooh, yeah that makes sense. Auto. Cannon.

[Woolie Wool]

360mm autocannons

360 mm autocannon?

Lol what

Why shouldn't they have 360mm autocannons in 150 years? It's basically a big-ass naval gun with an autoloader and futuristic, more damaging shells. It's not even that fast; it only fires 120 rpm.

[blowfish]

Auto. Cannon.

Auto cannon?

Wow! What are the command line parameters here? And whatever else that might be creating this beautiful scene

[Kobrar44]

Moar flames=moar energy wasted. Why are weapons in 24th century so inefficient?
