The Abyssal Maw - Start

There may be, it depends. Boarding is a planned addition to the v1.5 update, but there will be little to implement in that regard.

Also, I have decided upon the something: the battle reports will be in a webcomic format, and will be posted to several of my blogs. Your fleet's heroics and actions will be available for viewing on:

- My DeviantART profile
- My Facebook (mostly for Rayhawk and the BrikWars group)
- And Olothontoria, my personal blog.

No names will be mentioned, other than (potentially) usernames. Anyone who has a problem with this, please notify me.

Hmm... I think I like this one the best actually, since you can see the nacell clearer.

I'm still a bit indecisive on the ship types.
But I think I'll get it done today.

That's fine. Not like this is going anywhere fast. School over here has started up, and summer has ended, so updates will be MUCH slower than they have been.

I've been working on ship stats as much as possible, but I'm the world's largest procrastinator. I've literally spent the last two hours searching for a way to avoid working on the stats, this being one of them. I'll probably have them up soon. Also: 24 cp for a frigate? Shweet.

::nods:: It's difficult to get used to, but I think I've accepted the fact that the ship Max Cp Limitations were off by a pretty hefty margin.

I currently have two problems:

1.) v1.5 is not even close to done.

2.) v1.5 has NOT been play-tested in the slightest, nor does it look like that's going to happen soon.

What? Where is this? I can only find rules that allow 12Cp.

Hmm... Im sure it said 12. Did it get updated?
Now I need to re-think stuff on my fleet.

Just keep to that link and that link alone. It updates whenever I save it, so just be sure to check in and refresh. I apologize, I probably should have waited to set you guys loose in the rulebook until I had finished v1.5. The truth is, there will be updates, and some of you will want to make adjustments.

You have been warned. You may, if you wish, wait until I say that v1.5 is DONE to build your fleets, but I leave it up to you. If you think you can handle the updates, go for it. I believe there is a way to RSS updates from Google Notebook, because my homepage has an update box for this Notebook. I can't recall how I did it, though. Don't bother with it

Go for it, if you're willing to. I'd suggest, however, that playtesting wait until the entire rulebook is done, otherwise you'll need to re-playtest. And the same crap gets really boring, trust me.

Also, try to do it with a friend, it really helps. I can't do playtesting on my own, I need someone to bounce ideas off of.

Just a thought.

I'm going to try and get as much done on this as possible in my hour-and-a-half long time span tonight, but my attention will be split between, like, four different things, so no promises on any major achievements.

3 days, any progress?

Post by **Olothontor** » Mon Sep 14, 2009 3:48 pm

A little, but not terribly much. Sorry to keep you guys waiting.

This will be a while, considering I need to get BrikSpace v1.5 up FIRST.
