  • its good to see History Guy, General Tacticus, Sprayber, and Kass are still kicking.

    Sprayber-I think I might have to change the post. I posted that Yang was sending battlecruisers, frigates and such. Personally, I think this is a little specific so I'll make it more adaptable.

    Kass-Good job! Glad to see fellow Apolytoners doing good in their own respective land.

    Arright, I'm outties till the next time!
    Booyah!

    • Thanks Franky. By the way, you are not suffering from amnesia - last night I had my login changed from kassiopeia to Kassiopeia.
      Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!

      • Hey! Nice new login! Somehow it looks better this way.

        And I like your new Beyond Alpha Centauri tagline.

          Yes, I somehow now have magically lost my feel of newbiedom...

          I thought of shortening it to Kass, but all the Finns call me Kassi (kassi = a bag ) and Kass sounds like a girl.

          Just putting things in the right perspective.

          • Yeah, sure, Kassiopeia.

            (History Guy loads his shredder pistol...)

            And guess what I didn't have a chance to do yesterday? These summer months! I always think that because of a lack of school I can actually get things done in them, but nay.

            Here's what I am planning, however: Morgan having dinner on his ship, the reporter is tagging along, hoping to interview Col. Kessel. Delbar is returning to Morgan Interstellar, eating peanuts on the shuttle. Exploration of the new colony planet begins.
            Empire growing,
            Pleasures flowing,
            Fortune smiles and so should you.

            • Hope everyone is doing good!

              I've edited the Hive message to the Cadre. I've also posted a little somethingsomething to get the H.E.F. out of Samnos space and toward LP 658-2. This way, Bippol gets to find out and tell command of the attack there.

              You know, how do you make a link in your sig? I'm trying to get BAC in my sig also, but it's not happening. Help please!

              • Reminding everyone that, if you live in the USA, there's a B5 marathon tomorrow starting at 1:00pm eastern.

                To get a look as to how I envision Proctectorate Battleships, watch Legend of the Rangers and look for the Valen (The big green Ranger ship)
                Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

                • Franky: The way I did the links originally was to click on the button to post a new reply, use the "URL" function there to make a link, then copy the code, open my control panel, go to "Edit Profile" and paste the code in my signature.

                  They show Babylon 5 down on the Forgotten Continent sometimes, on our TV1. I've only ever seen the commercials for it; it didn't really appeal to me. Sorry.

                  • P. S. Kassi = bag? That explains the avatar.

                    The other day, someone called me "Dubya" on the Off-Topic. Should I be offended by that?

                    • “Money, of course,” responded the CEO, in mock surprise, “What else? Well, we shall see if the Terrans like the idea of being presented with fifty million credits?”
                      50 million credits?! why is morgan paying them,and not vice versa??espessialy with that mighty drone\spartan\believer fleet sitting on the border??

                      • Hey! 50 million is a lot of money. A credit ain't worth a buck, ya know.

                        Anyway, he knows that the Terrans can strike elsewhere. This is only to soften them up.

                        • yes,i realise 50 million isnt a small sum.its just IMHO,the chiron factions are much stronger than the ''earthers''...

                          [RAMBLE MODE ON]

                          but these threads always seem to end in military stalemate anyway because of things like ''sure you destroyed my flagship,but i have a even bigger ship coming in from xyz system''

                          i think BAC would be more entertaining if the humans played one side vs the ''AI'' or whatever you call it in this situation,because no one would get offended when there faction starts getting destroyed(leading to a stalemate when they counter each others moves over and over and the thread dying)

                          • I also found it slightly odd that Morgan was willing to give up so much money (I've heard of land-for-peace, but cash-for-peace? ). I suppose you have to spend money to make money.

                            • Well, actually, I thought 50 mill was small coming from Nwabudike. Seeing as how he is head of a system spanning conglomerate, he must make trillions of credits.

                              Cataphract-you bring up some good points, but the thread god has indeed stated that at a later time, things will get very interesting for all of us. Right now we are all establishing ourselves in the BAC universe with little "mini soap opera" events happening. I'm sure we don't all want a big war and then find out that we have to fight a BIGGER war after.

                              Of course, Yang is still keeping his true intentions a secret....even though I've had to state some of my plot idea's numerous times...but that's ok cause that's what collaboration is all about.

                              Am I right fellow BAC authors?

                              (BTW, Honestly Cataphract-thanks for your objective input! I for one would welcome any comments you have on the Hive P.O.V. postings!)

                                i hadnt taken that into consideration.your right,he must make an obscene amount of money.50 million does seem small now,considering he is a system spanning conglomerate...
