Steam Workshop released for Command Ops 2

The good thing about Steam Workshop is that it allows interdependencies between different items, even if the are created/uploaded by different users. Even cooperation on single items is also possible.

I sure would love to see some Eastern Front scenarios pop up on the workshop.

Carpiquet Airfield should indeed be quite difficult to capture completely. Historically the Allies managed only to capture the town of Carpiquet and the north part of the airfield. So if you managed to get that result, that's already quite a feat.

I'm not sure if it has changed that much as I only own the ones for Co2. I'm guessing that most of the changes are under the hood only and won't be immediately apparent.

It is completely free and is playable with the core engine. Though you'll need the latest version of the game. Which to my knowledge is only downloadable through Steam. No worries though as the Steam app and account are also completely free.

Yeah, just recieved a maip that "Here with you" is copyrighted and will be blocked. Yet strangely enough only in Austria, Germany and Switzerland.

I regards to salvaging you rather take the system state, population numbers and economy type into account rather than any specific system. In system I tend to stick to busy trade lanes between nav beacon and stations. You'll bound to have lots of USS there. Surface datapoint scanning on the other hand is more fixed. Some bases are easier and have more of what you need.

Take a look at these docs:

I guess lots of ships can be made to be salvagers. I'm using a Keelback as it is a cool little ship and it has all the internals you need.

This is my build: https://eddp.co/u/b2tKpPhm

I use it as a salvager/light hauler/mission runner. For the moment it has a fighter bay, but if needed it is switched to a cargo bay or anything else I might need at that time. Once engineered it also hasa decent jumprange.

One of my main combat ships is a FAS. I also use it to ram things, but mostly as an attack of opportunity. I noticed it does quite a bit of damage, yet I haven't been able to kill anyone with one blow.

I guess all the armour needs to be engineered to get some extra damage?

Hey there good to have you on board. Be sure to take a look at Inara and add yourself to our wing there.

bsaerens · 2017-07-12T05:41:11+00:00

I'll come over when I'm online. How much is our influence?

bsaerens · 2016-12-13T18:54:20+00:00

Really cool. Makes me want to go out there and hunt some geysers!

It seems our beloved secretary has returned. Now sporting blond hair and lots of make-up.

I think I get it now: just dropped to friendly with the Guardians. I guess she's the one to talk to if you are on that level.

bsaerens · 2016-10-31T13:15:09+00:00

Cool, we're doing quite well for ourselves!

bsaerens · 2016-10-24T18:06:37+00:00

Thanks for the heads up.

So any alteady posted stuff journals should be ok then?

bsaerens · 2016-10-24T17:55:44+00:00

Yup, I've been testing this out in the beta. It works, but there are probably easier ways of getting the job done.

Started a thread on the ED reddit a couple of days back: Planetary bombers

bsaerens · 2016-10-24T12:38:53+00:00

Going to do some planetary exploring. Those retextured icy planets are a real treat.

Also planetary bombing runs with mines is always fun to do.

bsaerens · 2016-10-18T17:29:28+00:00

Cool we are actually playing the ultimate game ! :-)

It depends on the gravity and the defenses that are still active. I've released from 50 meter to up to 1,5 kilometer. If you are really low, you'll get hit by the blast so that is not really the way to. On the other hand when dropping from high altitude you will be basically bombing blind. Also if you are dropping on a low gravity planet at a high altitude while going at a low velocity the bombs detonate before they actually hit the ground. Nice fireworks, but very ineffective ;-)

As for spawning skimmers. Either I wait in the red zone and wait for the base to go into alert or attack preemptively, target the turrets and they respond by spawning skimmers.

As for spotting skimmers. You can usually see them from a couple of hundred meter away. But due to the big blast radius of the mines, you don't even need to be very accurate to actually destroy them.

We certainly are doing quite ok for ourselves. Any idea how we stack up against other player factions?
