By the way, I pretty much die horribly whenever I try to use a fire beam.  3 power (if I remember correctly) to do zero damage... starting fires isn't that devastating...

It is sooo fun though. Especially when combined with Rockmen boarders.

Hmm, it might work if you have a couple of rockmen to board with.
Using firebomb would be better, since it's only 1 power (I think).
The problem is the 3 power cost.  You have to seriously gimp your engines or shields to make it work.

I know that it is unreasonable. But sometimes, I just do unreasonable things for fun. (for example, I once go 4 burst laser Mk. 2's That is 12 lasers firing all at once. :P I also once got 2 chain vulcans. That means that I am firing 2 laser every second.)

I vote option 2
Burst laser is seriously epic
Logged
7/10 Has much more memorable sigs but casts them to the realm of sigtexts.

Indeed, I do this.

Option 2, as i already said.
Really, the biggest problem to win this game is finding decent weapons before the end. No sense leaving one behind, even if it leaves
us broke.

In a hole in the ground there lived a dwarf. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a dwarf fortress, and that means magma.

It is only plus 2. One person recommended it, and two people agreed with it.

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

That reminds me. One time with the Federation Cruiser Type C, I got 2 flak Mk. 2's and one flak Mk. one. That was combined with the flak artillery that the ship starts with. I also boarded with 2 zoltans and had the clone bay maxed out and running full time. It was hilarious. I timed my shots with the flak artillery and laughed as everything on the ship got destroyed, my zoltans blew up, and fired started everywhere.

Nope. I don't do YouTube. Sorry.

It was also on an ipad, so that wouldn't work anyways.
