I think the best thing to do is forget about anything associated with THAT debacle and move on. Warcradle will have a plan in place for Firestorm and implement that plan when the time is right.

We are back in business! Time to ramble on about resin addiction and pew pew pew!

The game has been around since 1992. Which predates Spartan games by a few years. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jovian_Chronicles

Commodore Jones, The person most likely to respond, Spartan Josh, has not logged on as Spartan Josh since December 6th. At least as of this post. Take that for what it is worth.

I wouldn't hold my breath.... humans do not look good when they turn blue. When was the last time FSA got an actual release?..... Buehler.... Buehler..... Buehler.......

Some factions are built around the idea of deploying SRS, such as Aquans and Relthoza. So if your opponent has SRS, then you will need some way to counter them. SRS are a good tool to have at your disposal. I would consider them.

Spartan Linde is too busy elsewhere. It reads like you got your answer. Shields Offline.... no Cyclic Shielding, it just makes sense....

That was written by someone with a PHD* in game theory. They obviously have not spent any time reviewing the War Log for the past few years. Nor have they spent more than a game playing against Directorate forces. *PHD = Piled High and Deep, as in bull manure. I say the above with the full weight of 4 years playing FSA and as a former playtester of the game.

The Thraex is the most powerful of the Frigates(with the argument that the Pilgrim/Armsman is as good). If you could Spam them, it would be ugly. This was strictly a spam concern.

I think the Doctrine of Don't ask, Don't tell applies to the viewing of the blog comments....

My gut reaction is: NO! Mainly because your shields are offline.

I see two actual game mechanic changes in my list(I do not count the movement template as one. The outcome is virtually the same, it is just faster). Are we reading the same list? If you think they are major changes. Ok then.

So now that I have trolled everyone for a few days with the FF routine.... I think you can see that there are very few ways to speed up Firestorm Armada, some other them are: 1. A better movement template would help a little. 2. Changing the AD/Dice/Combining/Linking mechanic may help. 3. Improving the SRS mechanic and PD mountain(kill ships faster). 4. Some of speeding up the games falls on the players(know the rules, be familiar with the Ship and Stats)

Hyperbole does not make any ones point. However I would expect a critically thinking person to understand and infer that not one person has ever accused the Aquans as playing "slow" because of the arcs. Most lamentations revolve around "lining up" Fixed Fore, bacause the target channel is only 40mm wide and we know how precise gamers must be.
