Could the second bit above be changed to any change in base speed causes a recalculation of the first bit. That allows for speed changes over the turn break, or any other odd scenarios that crop up.

Nothing about dropping seekers stops you sticking to speed 24 if you want instead. That may indeed be best in some cases.

That's exactly what I've been stating, only I feel 'some' is still 'most' e ...

Sorry, meant to address this as well:

Note, I'm not against dropping drones on fade out as such, I just don't understand how it addresses your issue. I think seekers should be shed via some mechans ...

However, for many proper romulan ships that is a not such an issue. E.G. a sparrowhawk cloaked for 6 impulses and a base speed of 16 will have 10 spare power on uncloaking, that is enough to fire all ...

So are you saying you want to see a energy cost decrease AND no launching during fade out?

Correct. I'm stating that adding the drop or no launch alone is not enough.

Yes. But now it looks like ...

I don't understand. Your point 3 is that you can only cloak once a turn and then have to deal with being speed 16. How does not allowing seekers to be launched during fade 'better address' that percei ...

I think you're looking at it with a very myopic view Martin.

I really don't see how I am as I give examples that affect fleet and duel scenarios, as well as making my proposal on what I think would ...

I still don't see how adding the seeker drop will convince me to use the cloak more frequently.

I still see the main issue with the cloak being that it's just not power efficient enough for use.

The reason direct fire is range +4 and half damage is because the direct fire is being attempted without lock-on.

Yes, I am aware of this however in SFB if you loose lock you also have to double ra ...

For my two cents on this I feel that having seeking weapons drop against cloaked ships is not the way to go, and my thoughts on that are below.

If the seeking weapon is controlled by the launching ...

Thanks mjwest,

I would think that ADB has some contact information as well since they are listed in the product, is any of that information available?

Loving the game, just looking for more peop ...

New account here, been playing FC for a couple of years now and am always looking for more people to play with.

As I was reading my War&Peace book last night I noted that there was ...
