The TSJ Icanus, the Terran Superjuggernaut. Am I the only one who thinks that having the Earth Alliance build a ridiculously big superjuggernaut is unrealistic? What do you think?

The Icanus rocks, it shouldn't be touched at all.

Keep it the same, but make the Punisher a bit weaker, so the Gigas has a chance of winning.
2 (11.8%)
Tone it down, make it a little smaller , give it a few less hitpoints and make the armament a little less powerful.
1 (5.9%)
Make the Punisher's damage a little less insane and make the Icanus smaller, less protected and armed.
1 (5.9%)
Get rid of it and make up a better way to kill the Gigas.
3 (17.6%)
Keep it the same, but make it only 50% operational by the time the Gigas arrives.

The Violet Nightmare Beams fan out, although with newer graphics something odd happens. They no longer fan out like they used to, but rather create a sort of undulating gray-ish beam. Still looks pretty cool.

Sure thing. Here's a screenie:
It's impossible to see from a pic, of course, but the beam kinda waves back and forth.

We now know that you've got Nightmares in yer campaign and yer've also got a #Dreamcatcher character who talks like that.

Well, I guess it could be promotional. ;)

With all the questions I asked about Nightmares recently I thought it was a given.  :D

I thought they fit in well though: Dreamcatcher... Nightmare, it works.

not trying to speak for Hunter, but I don't think he needs anything, besides perhaps another tester when he develops the Alpha...

I really need to get my own forum up so that I can stop stealing Woo's space.

So:Created a new topic until the forum at Game Warden is up. We'll continue Dreamcatcher discussions there.
