Sonic, your the Captain......can McDuff make his torpedo modifications? :happydevil:

I had an idea, mostly for dramatic effect. Ravage's AWACS pod was designed for a much newer ship than the Ravage is. To get maximum effect (it sort of makes sense to me), what do you think about something like a "condition orange" or something where all main systems are disengaged and all available power routed to the AWACS pod. Something like too much energy in the ship could screw up the readings or something, even forcing the lights to dim during active scanning. I just thought that may be dramatic.

Sonic, if you want to do the next Ravage post, I'd appreciate it. I need a little break. I'll PM you what happens so you can put it together so as not to spoil the surprise for everyone else.

I'll get a fighter post up at some point too, if shes doing a Deep scan she'll need as much fire support as possible.

Oh I do like drama... :lol:. I'll get a post up sometime today. I'm moving into an apartment tomorrow and don't know when/if/how I'll have internet back.

If you like, I'll give you the go-ahead once we hear from the Ravage.

*EDIT* Or, you can just assume that you have the launch order once we hear from them, and post it.

There may be hell to pay from Mikey if you do, but it's your character. :twisted:

You won't really find anything before the Ravage, though.

Aye. Don't worry, Mark cooked up a good idea and I'll get it posted as soon as I'm done packing (which'll be tomorrow at this point :roll:)

You know, since I started with the RPs my creativity got a jump start. I'm already outlining possible "3rd quarter" events for Daystrom :)

I have just realised i've embellished ALOT on the Falcon flight controls and done some storyline tweaking, I hope I haven't stepped on anyones toes.

I was concerned mostly with the interior of the Falcons. I know i've made them seem a little fan-self-pleasurey but I thought that logically having a huge gaping hole of glass on the front was hardly an ideal thing. Why not replace it with holo/touch displays like they had on minbari sharlins (with added touchscreen) so you can make her more solid AND provide a much easier way to relay information back and forth.

#1 - I don't think it was ever discussed, so there was no canon to contradict regarding the Falcon's interior.

#2 - Even if there were, it only stands to reason that they've been updated by now.

(BTW, I can't imagine there were ever glass windshields in things like that. I'd always figured that they were 24th-century versions of modern RL plasma windows.)

IIRC, the falcon's never really got THAT much development, and I'm loving what your doing with them.
