Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
That would be nice if you found them. I'll pilot one of the ships, then we just need a pilot for the other.

How LONG did the scenario run for?

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
It was played in a sort of real-time, with the captains making decisions and firing off orders as the situation changed. It lasted as long as it took for victory to be achieved.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
I really like the idea. I'd play if the game was continued... I wonder how hard a group game would be.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
Not hard, we did a three-way battle at one point, I believe. Each person just gets their own ship, either on teams or as one massive free for all.

I'd love to try.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
Sunny emailed me the details of how it worked at one point, and we had a few games that worked nicely enough. It sorta died when Deep went AWOL, but the files should still be somewhere in the depths of my computer. I'll dig them up over the weekend.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
Yes! I can hardly wait. Maybe with the right luck, my Norway can beat a Galaxy.

Who needs luck? Target it's nacelles, and the ships neck. Hell, target the bridge!

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
I think Deep said he wanted the Paladin, good luck hitting that bridge.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
Yeah, my Norway don't stand a chance against the Paladin.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
Maybe we should do a few test battles with some smaller ships before moving on to the bigger battles. I'll still need to get back into the mentality of how to do it, and work out any kinks.
For example, how about two Excelsior refits against each other?

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
It might be better to start off with disimilar, rather than identical, designs. Maybe the matchup that got things rolling - a BoP versus a Miranda.
Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.

Re: Miranda vs Klingon Bird of Prey
Okay. That sound good with everybody?
Oh, and I'll need captains for the Miranda and the BoP. I'll dig out the files on my computer and post them in the Wargames section later.
