    great, maybe if we catch him at Tower of London we could put his head on a spike on London Bridge to warn off other CFPD's [8]


    Kwis I have my riverboat pub the 'Regalia' at the ready (just next to london bridge-north side) with a full stash of Rum to make a quich getaway down the Thames if he gets the upper hand somehow.


    Gonzo I suggest blocking all terminals of Heathrow with Destroyers and maybe a few Torpedo Bombers.

    Thanks for clearing those misconceptions up OP.


    option 1 then as per OPs update.


    can it be restricted to People who have an agressive RP licence? I.e. for Merc, Police, and Pirates, not traders.


    this way it encourages the use for Attack rather than evasion as the main evader types are freelancers or traders.


    Another way to keep it as Attack feature is to fine player for activating cloak if they have been shot, like with the F1. Maybe that is possible?

    sorry we sold out of 'I love Daedalus' T-shirts now.
    we got plenty of 'I love Gunny' baseball caps in stock though, and running out fast are the:
    'I taxed BG' Saxon autographed replica Cutlass. Also available in Canoso version.
    and
    BG_DeathScythe toilet rolls! -'Wipe him out like never before!'

In this order of thoughtscapital ships and big trader ships which use better power generators will be able to cloack longer. In the same time would be good if anti-cloack wepon is created as example could be a EMP mine wide explosion range which would be able to draw shields and ship power after that so as result, cloacked ship will show up.


    problem with energy usage is that we would need a class 1, 2, 3, 4 etc... cloaking device for each class of ship. Otherwise if your a defenseless little starlflier or a merchant in a rhino, you would never have the power for such a device, but these people need them the most.
    Also, size of ship should not matter because smaller ships require a smaller mass to be cloaked thus less power.


    I think less of limiting the ability of the cloak, but more on cost to run would be good deterrant, but saying that, how could a guy in a rhino afford to buy the fuel !


    would like to see this as an option for all to buy rather than just another Uber-weapon for the richest.


    btw, whether i choose option 1 or 2 depends on whether the ship could be damaged while in cloak.


    its more realistic to not be able to fly through planet, but If you cant be shot and killed by player in cloak then does it matter whether you can fly through a planet or not?, have a think, only low level players really need the cloak against NPC, because NPC can be swat like flies to most ppl of high grade ship. to many factors to make decision on that yet.


    In reality, theres too thin a line between whether the device is made unusable by limiting its usage to protect RP and fairness, and making it useful and destroying RP.
    For the time being, unless its clear that this can be implemented in a fair way, without messing everything up, im against having this in the game.

    I didnt like the fact that Cloaking might be added to the game, i thought it would be impossible to tax anyone, however, the amount of changes you can make to make it practical is really encouraging.


    Would it be possible to have a Cloak Jammer ? or have the CDs disrupt the Cloak countdown the same way as with Cruise???

    these people dont understand the rock star pirate lifestyle Inf.

    All LP are advised to use only the one server, CF.


    Over the past week some of us tested other servers to see what was possible IF the event should happen that we loose CF. As it seemed as if we might do, and we need to keep the clan active.


    Just in case you see some of our names registered on other servers, this is the reason why. So it should not be a surprise. All LP who were testing on these other servers have been recalled to CF now. And hopefully this is where we will stay.


    Also on your point no.1 OP:
    We was not at the meeting to discuss the future of our clan, because that is a descision we must make between LP as an internal matter. In addition, you show that you are not welcoming of our clan on the server so this does not make you approachable for any solutions.


    Agreed, the discussion did quickly turn towards what happens with the server, however we did mention first, what happens with the administration of the server, because you have been successful for years running a good comunity and server, and without you where would this server go. I understand your point, because without a good admin, its not worth even connecting to the server.


    Regards the money issue. We, all server clans, can do our best to keep the server an interesting place to be and we do this by creating Roleplay. Its unfortunate for us that you dont like to hear it because RP is the reason a majority of people come here. There are many members of this community who looked to the RP issues in hope to improve them because they recognise through playing on the server a lot that these issues are important to people keeping interest and staying. However, what with the ASF/CSF it all seemed to become blurred in my opinion and fragmented opinions on who wanted to do what RP.


    Agreed that many alternative RP's do tend to appear, and this fragments and causes conflicts of opinion on the server, however, these new RP types are never effectively implement by these people through lack of support of the majority. Agreed you must be as sick of the sight of them as i am, because i just wished we kept things traditional RP as per the intended licenses etc... which is supported by the mod.


    Now i wish that we can get more server clans to help pay for the server and that OP can rest assured that we will attract long term players and new server clans.


    BTW, im told [SS] pirate clan is buying a system soon, hurrah. hopefully this helps, and hopefully its not too late.


    Saxon, the Sixth Leader of LP :) , im a Taurus btw.

    SWAT will go back to its old state, an exclusive clanportal for honored and loyal people which are working for the success of their clans in different games and the greater good of the entire portal.


    Are UAC, IOC, LP, <3, etc... all classed as SWAT clans? or only BG? I know we are server clans. Trying to work out if these means we have not a public, but server clans only SWAT board in future. or no SWAT board for anyone but BG ?!.


    I wonder because its very good for us all to keep in contact with other clans, to share information, and is very valued to us all.


    Thanks.

    Gust, i would've paid you if SL was still around, i heard it disbanded or something? a shame if thats true.
    Come see me and i will give you the money owed, might be in installments tho as i'll probly be starting new chars when i come back. I owe SL somewhere in the region of 100mil plus a few more kills you got for me quite some time ago when i issued that huge assasination plan. i think you remember that one, it was fun ;)
