Article Predictions. Mostly General Discussion. But there's definately some Predictions scattered throughout.

Or, if you want something a little different....

Also sound of silence from disturbed is affective and fitting.

I have a small collection of such "odd" tracks...

The Late Peter Steele and Type-O-Negative doing "Hit me baby one more time" is just fantastically creepy.

You would have been correct if you had said "Type O-Negative is just fantastically creepy".....

Then view it in the light of: "I already consider them Fantastically Creepy... So let us set that level of Creepy as a baseline... At which point, them performing a Brittney Spears' number at Half Tempo is Fantastically Creepy."

Board game.

This I can get on board with.....

So, here's an idea:

Weekend of the 16th, I'm going ot be trying out some of the new Previously-Spoiled Missions from CC...

But that leaves me to this:


DUST CLOUDS.

I'm going to sub in some pieces that are similar size to the Asteroids/Debris... But I need to think of what effect a Dust Cloud would have...

There's a couple of Choices for me, and probably a bunch more that can be Brainstormed:


1) Does no Damage, Obstructs LOS only

2) Ships Overlapping take no Damage, Squadrons take 1 Damage

3) Ships Overlapping take 1 point of Damage per Speed of their Maneuver.

Any other Random Thoughts to push us over the SSD list?

It acts like chaff, so black dice can't be shot through it. It's a 100% black die obstruction, standard obstruction for every other color.

I mean, sure, I can drink all the water in the world, but I don't enjoy water. I don't think anyone really enjoys drinking water (when there are other flavourful choices available to them - sure, the kid who lives in a country where the words Sewerage and Beverage are interchangeable probably loves drinking plain water)...

I enjoy drinking water. Filtered water cold out of the refrigerator is the best. Have lost my taste for tap water with all those minerals and chlorine and flouride and junk. Given your apparent litany of allergies, I hesitate to suggest infused water. Adds some flavor and nutritional value to water.

More on point, though, see if you can find Water Joe - caffeinated water. That might help with your lack of caffeine, though it's no substitute for coffee (a drink I personally can't stand) or other caffeinated beverages with actual flavor.

What about: At the end of a round each player takes turns moving each Dust Cloud up to distance one. They can float around

Interesting. Although, Lore Wise, I guess that could be extended to any one Die Colour:

BLACK: acts like Chaff, as you suggest.

BLUE: Dust Clouds are Highly Ionised, and absorb Blasts

RED: The Micro-refractory nature of the Cloud diffuses Turbolaser Blasts.

Which is interesting. Would be further reinforcement of the Black/Blue/Red Upgrade slots, which we know isn't 100%.... But still.

I think the point of squadron damage would be best.

Would you have it Damage Ships and Squadrons, or just Squadrons? And Still Obstruct in either case?

We are now tied with the SSD thread. ONWARD, TO VICTORY!

The Caffiene itself is a No-no. Which is the problem.

I can't have the Caff. And I can't enjoy a Coffee without the Caff.

Hence, the BURNING PENT-UP RAGE.

Just squadrons, and with normal obstruction. Let's not do anything too wild, in case dust clouds are pretty meh when they're finally released.

At this point this thread should be titled "Barrens General Chat"

Ah. That would do it.

Back to the dust clouds then.

We have 17 posts on this page, including this one. One page supports 20 posts. We are so close...

Edit because dras ninjaed me.

Except far more civilized and eloquent.

I mean, I'm really interested in trying Jamming Barrier , as an Objective... That and Supply Run... Because Grav-Shifting the Obstacles isn't going to neccessarily mess things around as much as it does with Contested Outpost or Dangerous Territory...

That, and Jamming Barrier is built for the Bomber Fleet. The Close-Range Bomber fleet.

So do we all go see if they put up an armada article once we get to 62? Cause that was the deal right?

Even if it was... They are Altering the Deal. Pray they don't Alter it again.

YES. That post was 62. What I was hoping for.

I got the day right!

... Three more Pages and its the most Populous Thread on the Armada Forums....
