Oolite Bulletins

I wouldn't have made this post a year ago, but the rise of OXP ships with greater and greater firepower, especially those with turrets, has outpaced shield technology. There is a fine list of ships that can cut through military shields in less than a second. One can argue that this would not be a pr...

I thought I would offer my personal definition as to what makes a ship uber. Firstly, a Cobra Mk. III can be made uber with equipment such as shield capacitors, SniperLock and a Primable Military Laser. Any ship must have a discrete balance of equipment and base ship performance in order to create a...

Do you think ClymAngus would be willing to add the Dark Rainbow to the original Caduceus oxp? Would this solve the hosting issue? The specs of the Dark Rainbow in my opinion reflect the absolute limit of 'Uberosity'. While the Wonderworm may be faster and equally over-powered, it is not really an Oo...

Better yet, how about a player version of an Imperial Star Destroyer that goes .8Ls Now if only we can add multiple shield banks just for good measure. Sadly, the joy of flyin...

Hello Wyvern. I have flown the Dragon M and really the HUD (like the Kirin), as well as many of the features you mentioned (didn't mean to put down the Dragon at all). I noticed that a player can purchase a Condor (LS 5.2) at an astronomical price. It as 1500t of cargo capacity, but makes the Kirin ...

That would be wonderful. I would be grateful of any time you invest into a new .plst for me. I am curious. Is there a limit as to the number of plasma canons that can be placed on a ship? For instance, is it possible to create a ship as fast as a Swift (.74 LS) with 12+ turrets and a 100 ton cargo c...

The Vortex is my preferred ship because it is agile, and the plasma turrets fire fore and aft - easy to use. The Caduceus Omega has greater firepower with its plasma turrets, but repeatedly turning the ship broadside against enemies can be tiresome. The dragon is similar only with 1 turret. I like t...
