This wasn’t my first intention on how the event should look but I like where this is going. It evolved. Winner can post another riddle, but don’t feel you are obliged to do it as I don’t want to lock this game from those that don’t want to continue the chain. I will still post mine during the week.
Nice one CodeWarrior : )
<–(riddle by CodeWarrior is on the 1st page)
Would people be interested in Design a Fleet Uniform contest, Fed and Kdf side? I know no one will wear this but it would be fun to see what comes out of this.
I listened to this podcast by some dps league players. (17:00 min of podcast) They say that antiprotons have increase of 2-3% in dps over other weapon types, but only if you do over 50k dps. So if you have 10k, 20k or 30k dps build, you won’t see any difference of antiprotons over phasers or polarons.
Antiproton is only weapon type that has 2x Omni beams, other have only 1 available. That is why Antiproton is best for DBB builds for ships that have 3 aft weapon slots (third slot is for Kinetic Cutting Beam).
So if you would go Plasma, I guess you shouldn’t use DBB build but Beam Array build, with best Mods (check Blackout’s guide).
I’d also be interested but don’t own one at the moment, I’ll go and check if I can reclaim the starting Tier 1 ship. This would be fun.
YES, congrats! You have solved the riddle. Ball in Sisko’s old office – easy if you know it exists in game. : )
You will get the reward when I see you in-game.
Yeah, they are selling the same thing twice and ship trait mechanic was really smart idea. Having t6 fleet version without trait made C-Store ships even more desirable. Otherwise, I would just buy fleet version like I did with t5 ships (mostly).
Nandi makes interesting profit (^^) with that extra 6th boff seat as it can have one extra SRO (other ships have max 5 boff seats but get access to extra LT power).
I hope we will get some kind of Fleet Admiral feature that gives us more options to do with ships we don’t use.
Did you managed to do the Tiny Tiddler Run? We could schedule this in order to make it work, with forum announcement, etc.
I believe there is nothing much that can be done there. We are already bumping those posts so it is constantly on the first page of the recruitment forum. It is also important not to over-advertise since there is competition between fleets and few cases were people don’t react well. Don’t want to make us look like we grab for players. I believe the quality of what we offer is what will attract more players to play the game with. So if we concentrate on making an interesting scavenger hunt for example, people that are looking for a group activities will more likely choose us. Since we now have RP going on, it is more likely we will get someone who is interested in role-play.
To tell the truth, I forgotten about second explosion but you described that first one shook several decks of the station so I guess that one.
Also, I’m still deciding if Haznir stayed on station or if he transported to Dragonstar. Tentacle was holding him so maybe they weren’t able to get his signal clearly. It would add to the drama 😛
You forgotten about your transporter chief? : ) Quoting you here: “Dragonstar’s transporter chief, lieutenant Riley quickly responded: Aye sir! Moment later Dr. Tahna dematerialized from the floor of armory and rematerialized in Dragonstar’s sickbay.”
In next few days I’ll write what was happening on the Bajoran ship in the meantime.
Ship descriptions are very detailed, kudos for your effort.
DS3, living quarters
Yumi and Haznir were standing in front of narrow corridor with hesitation. “We can’t lose any more time, Perikia will leave without us if we don’t hurry.” – Yumi finally snapped out of their reluctance and climbed inside. Her eyes were closed as she crawled toward maintenance panel 19, trying not to touch any of the tentacles that were scattered around them. Although she had high threshold of tolerance, expected from every Chief Medical officer, years of experience couldn’t prepare her for this distressing situation. Haznir followed, looking at his tricorder to make sure they are going the right way. Conduits started to shake a little as if there was some kind of detonation on the other part of the station. This caught him unprepared and he lost his balance, stepping onto larger pile of deprived pieces.
They felt relief as they crossed the area where fight took place. Haznir suddenly stopped as he noticed some strange smell that intensified more and more. “What the..” Yumi turned around and looked at him – “Haznir, are you all right?”
“The smell..” – He rashly directed the light over his hands and knees to see if there is breach on his EV suit. His suit was all stained in strange yellow substance which they concluded is creature’s blood. “I don’t see anything…wait!” Right below his right knee, suit has corroded by some kind of goo. Haznir’s heartbeat increased and his breath intensified. Fabric on his suit looked like plasma burn but it had more glowy purple impression.
Yumi was already on it. She reached for her pocket where medical tools were stored and used the scanner to make sure goo hasn’t got in contact with his skin. Luckily, it was only small amount of corrodent applied. She carefully isolated the affected part to make sure it doesn’t get in touch with his body. Scalpel used to remove the goo from his suit looked like it rusted. “I will store it in metal container for later examination, I have never seen substance like this before.” She observed it for a moment before she turned her attention to Haznir. “Your skin didn’t got in touch with it, I’m sure you would feel that.” Color returned to his face. “But we don’t know what you inhaled. Scanner doesn’t show clear results so we don’t know if corrosive effect extends to evaporation.” She finished patching up the hole in his suit, while he activated the filters to establish the optimal breathing condition.
Haznir kept quiet, spinning different scenarios in his head. He couldn’t stop thinking about that liquid: I must have got in contact with it when I lost balance, was it hidden inside those tentacles? Will I be safe? Am I infected? They were clearly under-equipped for mission of this type but they agreed to take the risk.
They continued crawling and soon got to part where path was turning left. Yumi noticed yellow liquid was disappearing behind the corner and felt the level of fear inflated. She reached for her pistol, and squeezed the handle tightly. Slowly moving she strained her senses to note any change in noise, concentrating to the smallest vibrations. Haznir noticed her pistol so he prepared his rifle and directed it in front of them. They moved, centimeter by centimeter, slowly…

…getting closer…

…breathing stopped, seconds turned into eternity…
.
…she was there, just needs to peep to the left to see what lies ahead… Now or never. When she bravely leaned her head, something jumped at her and forcefully threw her at the wall behind her, leaving her half-conscious from the impact. Creature was heavily wounded, barely moving as it lost a lot of blood and most of its limbs. Still, it possessed great strength and enough energy to kill. Without thinking, Haznir aimed at the alien in front of him, screaming at the same time. Rifle battery was almost depleted when tentacles wrapped around his body and smashed him against the wall.Impact damaged the power supply of signal inhibitor device Haznir had in his bag, leaving them exposed to the dispersed multi-frequency scan. Protective field was no longer hiding their signatures… Two dots showed on the console in front of Lieutenant Riley from USS Dragonstar, who was startled by unexpected appearance. He hastily touched his commbadge: “Riley to Keller – we found two more, beaming them directly to sickbay.” “Ok, preparing the quarantine area…Ready, hit the button.”
Yumi was blinded by sudden bright light. Am I alive? She was confused as she still felt that hit and all she could see was blurry figures and very loud voices. Where am I? She tried to keep her eyes opened, but fuzzy picture turned into blackness…
I would like to recommend Banner Saga, one of the best I played:
Good to hear that brighter days are coming. I bet those were some funny Pat&Mat moments when you tried to bring it out,hehe.
I was in same situation during the last summer so I know how you feel, but..but…Star Wars!? jk,I never tried it but probably will one day, out of curiosity since it is f2p.
I’m on Chapter 3 of Telltale’s GoT, like the game so far. (and other stuff they produced recently)
Glad you will help us with Mr. Tentacle and his evil friends. See you : )
