Nah.

It's the Karthu 'Al or the Redeemer, or the Scythe.

And of course when I attract more peasant bounty hunters, I'll form a mercenary army with a Javelin Destroyer as my flagship.

Keep in mind, I will first need to build a good PC.

by **Licana** » Sun Jan 04, 2015 11:53 am

I don't like the aesthetics of the Javelin. :/

I hope they make a Sulaco-esque capital ship for Star Citizen at some point.

I've decided to start preemptively hating myself for buying Battlefront.

Luckily, I had a save right before I declared war, so it wasn't a total loss...but, yeah. Austria is way too OP. :unsure:

I wonder how well a run as Bohemia would go....

I don't just mean that, I mean being able to fill in the "starmap". As in, you can be an explorer and discover new systems and sell their locations to however makes these "starmaps".

Or keep the entire system to yourself. For reasons.

That is exactly how its going work. The systems are completely uncharted. There is no plan to have any indication where they would be or how to get to them. You have to search systems for new jump points to find them. Then after you plot the jump point you sell the jump point information to the government and get to name the system you found. That or have you own super secret base in a super secret solar system which will last exactly as long as it takes for the next guy to find the jump point and claim the place as their own. I'd go with the first option, if only to name a system something that would be fine tuned to slip past the censors.

Rushing for Gauss weapons has also made me appreciate the laser cannon for your Interceptors far more. The coilgun just doesn't compare. :/

Is that a mod, or DLC? :unsure:

The only benefit I can see to playing as the Czech Republic would be the beer...and even then, I don't know if it would be worth it. :lol2:

Mod, and a great one at that. You can find it on the steam workshop, its like the third highest rated EU4 mod.

It's a mod (so it's free). Go on Steam Workshop and search "extended timeline".

Do you know how long 5MB takes when your little sister is watching every episode of every show she watches, 24/7? :meh:

Corvus if I can download it in less than three minutes with a 3.8 Mbps connection then you can download it too

I can sing along with this song now with very few slip ups

From Omega to Mars
From the Council to the seediest bars
From the reaches of space
To the pillars of Asari grace

There are battle-worn Batarians lacking in humility
Turians a braggin' bout their reach and flexibility
The clutter of the cities spreads to the loneliest stars

But no matter what scars you bear
Whatever uniform you wear
You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leopard
But you'll never be better than Commander Shepard

In the Citadel's halls
Inside the shining walls
Hear the stories from Earth
Fighters wanna prove their worth

Salarian science smothered in idiom
About as stimulating as scanning for iridium
But one tale holds every mind enthralled

Cause no matter what scars you bear
Whatever uniform you wear
You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leopard
But you'll never be better than Commander Shepard

Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard
Commander Shepard

No matter what scars you bear
Whatever uniform you wear
You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leopard
But you'll never be better than Commander Shepard

You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leopard
But you'll never be better than Commander Shepard
You can fight like a Krogan, run like a leopard
But you'll never be better than Commander Shepard

Never be better than Commander Shepard
Never be better than Commander Shepard (Yeah!)
Never be better than Commander Shepard
Never be better than Commander Shepard
ASSUMING CONTROL

Corvus if I can download it in less than three minutes with a 3.8 Mbps connection then you can download it too

I have Skybeam...and get, on average, about 150 Kbps.

It works fine for me most of the time when nobody else is doing stuff, but when my sister starts streaming Netflix, it turns to utter shit and gets about ~50-60 Kbps for download speeds.

Luckily, I'll be out of the house and will be able to get my own ISP after next year when I'm in college.

I've noticed in Call of Duty Advanced Warfare. that it seems that all of the KVA cannon fodder/soldiers have some sort of Eastern European(?) accent and nothing else. Even in the US.

I would assume that in the US we would be fighting more US/Canadian/Mexican terrorist.
