well, the gate kills itself (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: LAW ENFORCER on December 29, 2001, 09:02:00 am: wouldn't it make more sense to have the beams facing same way as ship?
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Alikchi on December 29, 2001, 11:08:00 am: Hem, but ships need to go in the other side. What if you don't want a ship to enter the node from your side?
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Setekh on December 29, 2001, 08:10:00 pm: More beams... Lots and lots of beams... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: LAW ENFORCER on December 30, 2001, 06:30:00 pm: Well......... DUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHH!

More beams! What SORT of IDIOT dosn't know that? Only a COMPLETE FOOL would be stupid enough NOT to know 'If in doubt, add more beams!'..... and also to jump throuhg the thing! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: vadar_1 on January 01, 2002, 02:43:00 am: how about something like an iris from stargate, a big metal, or magnetic gate that can open and close, stopping a ship before it can complete its departure. Or just create some sort of internal subspace inhibitor, either way, to block hostile ships.

but it looks cooooooooool
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Fineus on January 01, 2002, 06:39:00 am: You could have a ring of beam cannons on potruding structures that are "every other" in a circle, that way the beam fires straight but if it misses it won't hit anything on the far sde...
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Woomeister on January 01, 2002, 06:43:00 am: Well I might arm it with up to 50 turrets, doubt much would be able to get through it then (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Post by: Raven2001 on January 03, 2002, 06:20:00 am: Hey that Nemesis cruiser isn't the ticonderoga mad by Hamano???
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Woomeister on January 03, 2002, 09:12:00 am: Nope, the Nemesis is a super destroyer
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Setekh on January 13, 2002, 04:21:00 am: Hey, we always think of beams as the main defence for a node. Are there any other alternatives?

Post by: LAW ENFORCER on January 13, 2002, 09:49:00 am: Fule Tanks! (I just put some in my MOD, thants what made me think of them) Fule Tanks that explode BIG. Just line them up around the node wait till a ships jumps in... fire... BOOM etc
Title: Another old model redone...
Post by: Fineus on January 14, 2002, 03:02:00 am: Or (if you want to crash the computer) Flak cannons! Lots of them!

A ring of 80 flak cannon arranged in a ring around the jump in/out point. I'td look hella cool.

I had a idea to make a flak sphere and put 10/15 turrets all over it and put it in a mission good for defending cargo depots from all sides.

Stringing monofilament, monomolecular wire across the node. Just for fun, make it superconducting wire as well, so you can't easily vaporise it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Slice and dice!

Post by: Nico on January 14, 2002, 05:48:00 am: yeah, or cheaper: put a spheric structure around the node, when you know the enemy will come, close it (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

Post by: LAW ENFORCER on January 15, 2002, 05:17:00 pm: I bet the shivans wouldn't have attacked if they knew Alpha one was allied with the Terrans...

Anyway... Wound't sips just avoid that jump node? unless they were attacking it?
