@SS, you get Ion Turret ship component

It's a double ion cannon (1 damage for each cannon) that only takes up 1 slot and only uses 1 energy. Keep it, keep the VPs or apply to a ship immediately.

Why can't I see this rare(?) technology in either rule book or the ship parts image?

[Solidsnape]

Are there both positron and gluon computers on the tech board?

[Solidsnape]

I'm salivating at the thought of having positron comps with normal computers and plasma cannon with ion turret on my cruiser.

Would that give me 4 damage for any rolls 3 and up? Shields not counting of course.

I was going to go for a warp portal and play my merry way through the galaxy, but now the Horde will simply have to make do with trying to prevent D'rek from benefiting from her betrayal.

.. Why would I want the neutron absorber?

I could very well be wrong, but I'm thinking that Tatts is thinking of helping D'rek dismember you.

You are right.

You are wrong

You're not getting much sleep.

I've left enough time for someone to jump in with a serious answer. There wasn't one, so:

Because it's a figment of our collective imaginations.

I think it's an expansion item.

Sorry SS I was a minute too slow.

Edit:

@SS look at Morgoths player board. I think he still has an ion turret on his orbital blueprint. It's basically two ion cannons for the energy cost of one. It's actually a pretty good item to have for the energy consumption.

I am going to bed. I should leave my provisional with someone, Twelve?

[Tattersail_]

If my dread had two plasma missiles and I attacked those ancients, would one plasma missile target one ancient and the other target another? So my one dread could kill two ancients in one turn? Would that be the same if I had two anti matter cannons? One anti matter cannon destroys one ancient and the other destroys the other. Is that right?

[Khellendros]

I'd like everyone to know that I have changed the name of my race to reflect our current situation.

Anyone here played Mass Effect? Quarians - super high-tech race, forced to abandon their homeworld and wander in exile. That's me.

[Solidsnape]

So we on round 4 now? Who's turn is it?

Do you have a link to the eclipse simulator?

[Tattersail_]

Round 4 hasn't started yet. We are waiting for end of day 3. I'll make my move first thing. Sorry it wasn't tonight

[Solidsnape]

It's my fault it wasn't tonight.

So what we waiting for?

Is that the battle simulator we were using to mock the battles?
Yeah I've got that.

See if the supernovae hexes kerplode, and in which direction the ancient in the hive will go.

Sure. I'll make sure it get's processed.
