If Nyquil isn't meant to be abused, then why does it come with a shot glass?

Just do B12 before someone nominates something obscure or over complicated is my opinion.

EDIT: So you don't have to explain what Armok is and why you are a slave to them; as amusing as their realization that Armok is both you and an imaginary deity of gameplay.

Ooh, "Slaves of Armok" would be a pretty good outfit name, actually. And when they ask, tell them that Armok is the variable that keeps track of whether your arm is ok. That'll learn 'em! :D
I still favor "B12", though. Simple, functional, elegant.

Trust me it's funny the first two dozen times then you start a copy and paste thing to show people.

Sort of finished and awaiting remix due to loss of most recent song file before addition of drums:

"DLA" Dwarven Liberation Army would be in keeping with the NC's rebellious backstory. :P

Oh god no! Anything named "_____ Liberation Army" is a bunch of revolutionaries who go around burning people and raping their houses. As fun as committing terrible atrocities is in DF, I don't want to be associated with that kind of thing outside of this forum.

Yeah... what do you think the NC is?

Wait, how do you rape a house? I guess you'd need a MAX suit with 'special equipment'? (Unlocked for 2800 sony bucks online btw)

A group of noble freedom fighters opposing an oppressive government? Y'know, like Biggs and Wedge and all the other guys that got killed to death. That's how I choose to think about it. Well, sans the death part. I want none of that. :P

Its cool, you just respawn at the Galaxy and hit the equipment terminal to get your stuff back.

I think there's a bit of a problem with the balance. We got enough pilots for 3 galaxy's, 4 liberators and a sizable escort. We could seriously ruin someones day with that  :P.

Or a few tanks, if the galaxy can still transport armor.

I think they said in the video that you had to equip the galaxy for either respawn duties or transport duties, right?

Anyone know what the limitations with Drop Pods are? I remeber in PS1, you couldn't drop within a certain radius of bases, but they were landing on roofs in the demo. I tried to ask in twitter, but it was flooded with fan-art and begging, so I couldn't get noticed.
On the note of drop pods, my goal in life is to land on as many MAXs as possible, maybe knock a galaxy out of the air. I didn't see it on the stream, how much damage do they do?

The resource sytem helps to balance that, as we wouldn't be able to afford pulling a stunt like that consistently.

But it would be awesome!

I was thinking, we may need more than one outfit, as outfits can specialise using certs to provide bonuses to certain types of play, such as land vehicles or aircraft.  So unless we all intend to specialise, we may need a bay12 armoured division, and a bay12 infantry company etc.

I didn't know outfits could have specializations.

I'm not certain we have enough people to support more than one outfit really though. Especially a month or two after the game starts, when people start not showing up any more.
