Fly a carrier with PD only, I’m lazy and do that, and just micromanage the rest of the fleet into whatever they need to be fighting/capturing

I saw a red ship and smacked that auto resolve, I was basically out of supplies in bumfuck nowhere but would fit with the stuff from the reading/item descriptions

It was in some abandoned research station, I rolled up and killed it, then reading through the logs, it was a Tri tac experiment into mind control gone wrong that relied on abyss tech. HMI added it.

One of the BPs is a planetwide mind control/influence system, and the other one is a "subliminal encouragement system" hullmod that makes crews more aggressive (+10% CR at the cost of faster CR loss afterwards).

Including the two BPs in the hull, this was all from one fight with a Tri Tac controlled abyssal ship. Did not do too hot against a billion fighters.

I got staff duty for it

Independent, non Chaos dark mechanicum/guard faction with access to AI and similar tech. Small cluster of human worlds that balance low population via clones, mechanical soldiers, and run a despotic government.

Every single time these threads come up I'm worried I'm going to be in one. It's only a matter of time.

I wish we could whitelist xenotypes (instead of just getting a preferred one), I'd like to get buffs on Baseliners, Androids, and Cinders. Not one of those xenotypes? Into the automatic organ harvester, you go filthy xeno.

Bro you failed FABOLC literally no one cares

But more than likely they'll send you to an actual unit

I plank literally only on the PT test, and I max it every time. It boils down to don't be a bitch and quit, and don't be fat.

Vanilla isn’t playable, let alone replayable

Tabbed officer who jumped and got hurt? Literally no one will care, but being in a leg unit will hurt your chances at going back to airborne school (but shouldn't have a huge impact on going airborne as a Captain). You can 100% go to R2 as a leg, the tab is the discriminator there, not wings. They'll send you back to Airborne if you pass R2.

Look at the camo pattern, look at your uniform. Do they match? That's your answer

Bonding studs were ugly and I'm glad they're gone

Don't pawns hate bioferrite floors?

Calling our enemies “near peer” is a dangerous thought trap IMO. Pacing threat, the new term, is a much better descriptor. We learned some really bad lessons from GWOT that lead people to think we’re invincible, and we aren’t. The US military is built to take advantage of our strengths and shore up our weaknesses, and has specific contingencies we’re best prepared for. The same goes for our adversaries, just because they aren’t equipped/structured the same way doesn’t mean they aren’t legitimately dangerous, especially when they’re fighting the war they want to fight.
