I meant the entire project costs thus far. The entire sub project for Spain was slated to cost 3 billion for 4 subs. Now it will cost more. The amount of money paid for the F-35 has produced a workable combat aircraft with teething problems, that will be produced in the thousands. So no, the F-35 d...

You spent 680 million dollars on a submarine that can't even float!?! BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH! OH MAN AT LEAST THE F-35 CAN FUCKING FLY! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH OH... oh God... I needed that. I... wow. You know, we can make fun of the Air Force for quite a lot. However... as much of a deba...

I was entertained by the film, but in retrospect it has many problems and I think ultimately I'm disappointed with nuTrek. RE: Scale of nuTrek being small. They're probably trying to emulate TOS more than TNG/DS9, with its 'only the Enterprise can save us!' motif. The thing is though, outside of TMP...

Another game we've been playing regularly is Spartacus.

That's an amazing game.

Hi guys, I've been away from the board for awhile now. I thought I'd pop in with a review for a board game I got over a month ago, called Star Trek Fleet Captains. The game is very good. I like it a lot. I've only played it twice, but my regular gaming group seem to like it so it'll become a mainsta...

Are you guys sure that nostalgia isn't colouring your impressions? I remember SMAC, MoO2 and GalCiv 2, and engaging diplomacy wasn't anywhere near those games. SMAC and Galciv 2 had personality, but that was it. It was still just a 'Here's one of my tech for one of yours' mechanic, and little else. ...

This puppy has raised over five million clams. That's more than Project Eternity, which broke all kinds of records last month. It's pretty fucking hilarious that they can't go to conventional production companies because 'lol nobody wants to play those old classic style games :v' Yeah, horseshit. He...

^ Yeah, same. I would never play it, but I kinda like to observe it or read stories about some of the weird shit that happens in it.

EDIT DayZ is in the same boat as EVE for me.

Good luck ever having anything other than computers deal with that kind of stuff. I'm just sayin'.

Shouldn't you also add another category: how to power the bloody thing? Because that is what I would consider the biggest limiter to powered armour. I guess it also depends on the type of powered armour. Like if we're talking Mass Effect style hardsuits, you don't have to power mechanical servo join...

Free-to-Play launches Thursday. Remember to roll on Ebon Hawk! :wink: So what does the free-to-play option amount to? ETA: I mean for a newb to this style of MMO and all, since I've never done WoW or anything of the sort. Essentially you'll be restricted to what races you can use and a few customiz...

I've heard that TOR's F2P matrix is pretty bad. STO's the only yardstick I have to measure it by, though.

Is there a problem with inmate murder in Norway? If not, can there be one? This is the second time you've made what I'm assuming to be a facetious remark calling for this guy to get shanked. I know that this guy is a reprehensible human being, and I know that some might feel his punishment is somew...

This reminds me of the film 'The Pentagon Wars' humourous send-up of the Bradley's evolution: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXQ2lO3ieBA[/youtube] Seriously, this kind of mission creep in the design process is fucked up, and needs to die. 'Oh it's a transport vehicle. Let's also turn it int...

Man shitheads running off their leashes in chats aren't anything new. It's been something I've seen in STO and you either ignore it or... well, that's it really.

What a sack of shit. I'm sure had Mittens won those guys would still be employed. /sarcasm

What a baby.

I honestly don't see why naming warships after presidents is any worse than naming them after cities or states, really. Honestly? It's as frigid says, they're politicians. At least with a city or state you can go 'that's a place filled with millions of people, that's worth something'. And those civ...

Though detailed, this analysis is shallow on several points. It criticizes the generalship of the Army by the time-honored tradition of simply not talking about anyone except those generals that fit its premise and pretending the rest don't exist or don't matter for unstated reasons. This does not ...

We don't name ships like that anymore, now we name them after politicians. According to the Navy office, they have decided that policy is no longer popular and are considering going back to traditional names. Thank fuck for that. Speaking as a non-American outsider-looking-in, naming warships with ...

But inept leadership by American generals was also responsible f...

I'll take the occasional bout of Nazism that essentially goes nowhere (and at this point I wouldn't be surprised if there were more Nazis in the US than there are in Germany) over a biannual natural catastrophe any day but they're your lives to complicate any way you see fit. :wink: Of all the ways...

I'm pretty apathetic to this news. As in, I couldn't care less. Lucas killed off my remaining esteem for his work, first with the special editions of the OT, then the prequels, then the DVD release of the OT which had the original originals with the shitty laserdisc transfer (right next to the SE ve...

IDK if I like the last 15 mins of Casino Royale, but the last minute or two make up for it.
