And that would show some talent in moding to pull it off, so it would be a big breakthrough in the moding scene. Then I could seriously consider doing my 14 Year War campaign.
You could use secondaries with high refire rate and small ammo... it would be pretty easy to do it, you;'d just have to adjust your firing buttons and learn to switch between weapons quickly... possibly have a single (unreliable) laser cannon complemented by mass-based weapons.
Well, I'm beginning to gte interested in a T-V war thing as well as
Reciprocity, and I've had some ideas - basically splitting it into 3 parts (start, middle, end of TV war), with chnaging tech in all of them.
I.e. part one would deal with the diplomatic incident (or whatever) that caused the great war and the initial exchanges. Including the old ammo-based primaries, the predecessors to the Fenris and Orion (Terran) and the Vasudan Ships....
Part 2 in the midpoint where crucial victories are won to sway the war in the way oif the Terrans - including the old Angel gfighters being replaced by the Valkyrie and the intro of the Apollo / Orion, and the first aspect seeking missiles
Part 3 taking place during Operation Thresher until the first encounter with the Shivans (maybe even flying to escort Lt.Ash back to base).
Probably need more in the way of civillian stations and vessels .
I'm not willing to actually head up another campaign justnow, I'd gladly help on another if it particularly interested me.
