Tweakers Anonymous on Xen's TW Server REBANGED!

[Xentropy]

Or maybe just banged since it's opening for the first time. Server at 12.224.252.182 port 2002.

Here, finally, is the complete tweak list.

- Scout Mauraders reduced to 1 turn/warp so they can more effectively scout.

- Battleship max figs increased to 20000 and shields to 2500.

- Gave Colonial Transports access to density scanners.

- Increased CargoTran's defensive odds from 0.8 to 1.2.

- Decreased Constellation's odds from 1.4 to 1.3.

- Gave the T'Khasi Orion holoscanners.

- Increased Tholian Sentinel shield max to 15000 and decreased
its fighter max to 500.

- New ship: Scout Orion.  Fills the void in the game for a decent 2
turn combat ship.  2500 fighters and 500 shields, 1.3:1 odds, but 
only 30 holds make this ship decent for well-defended exploration 
and perhaps doing a little alien hunting but little else.  It also 
gets combat scanners.  Full stats in the ship catalog (text only).

- Planets are completely revamped to the following stats:

            /Max pop (k)\ /--- Prd/col ---\ /-Storage(k)\ /-Days to Cit Lvl-\ Hab Haz

- Imperial StarShip dropped to 30000 fighters to allow for a 
greater sliding scale for higher level Imperial ships.

- New ship: Imperial Skimmer.  The Federation's answer to the 
Scout Orion.  With so much power suddenly in the hands of 
pirates in such a fast ship, the Federation decided to answer in 
kind.  Unfortunately, bureaucracy being what it is, 3 turns per 
warp instead of 2 is the best they could manage.  With 12000 
fighters and 1500 shields, it doesn't quite live up to CorpFlag 
standards, but its 100 holds make it a decent colonizer as well, 
for those who can't afford a StarShip.

- New ship: Imperial Freighter.  75 holds, 2 turns/warp, you can 
thank the "aliens" and Trader's Guild for this one ;>

- New ship: Imperial BattleShip.  Somewhat similar to the old ISS 
(50k figs), with added combat scanners and requiring the rank of 
Lieutenant (8192 xp) to drive.

- New ship: Imperial Dreadnaught.  As impressive and large as its 
namesake, this 6 turn/warp ship rivals the Interdictor Cruiser in 
every way.  Available only to Commanders (65536 xp), this ship 
has it all.

Full ship stats are available in the computer catalog (use + to get to the second page which contains all new ships). All other statistics can be found from * at the main game menu before entry. Game is banged and running as of RIGHT NOW!!

Happy trading!

Let the fun begin! Now!

Bump. Since we don't have a moderator to make this sticky, this needs a bump. Some people (King Thor included) never got to see my list of edits.
