Got a 17 killstreak and had around 300 notoriety using a Mare's Leg and Peacemaker combo.

Why don't more people play this game, anyway? It's fun and it's free... Shameless advertising but still.

The game came out a while ago, most of the players who were interested in it already got their fill. Also, development on it has stopped so there isn't anything new to look forward to.

When I first looked at the game, it had only multiplayer and the game mostly tossed you into the match with no idea what to do or how to play.

Now, there's a singleplayer tutorial on how to effectively use Fof's handguns. It wasn't there before.

I'd say there's still a few updates in the game yet. While there isn't anything official that shows up on the game's news feed, the game does receive regular updates.

[heydude6]

Oh, didn't know about that.

Not quite sure if it really counts but...

Mounted the first gravity cannon onto my battleship. This first required completely redesigning the entire cannon for size and shortening the projectile. The end result no longer punches deep holes in heavy armor, though the potential is still there somewhat. Next, I had to use a projector to weld it in, since trying to paste the blueprint wouldn't fit. Main downside is now the gravity bleed from the back of the cannon into the rest of the ship, some of which hits the bridge. This should be fixable by playing with the field sizes a bit.

One installed, 15 more to go. And the first one only took nearly an hour!

If you include sensors and a gyro in the projectile they can home in on target when they experience a near-miss

Through shouts of "FRONT TOWARDS THE ENEMY YOU IDIOT! FRONT TOWARDS THE ENEMY!" and "No! Jesus! Save the Sherman! Save the Sherman!" I managed to actually win a skirmish, I am starting to consistently win skirmishes, now.

The bullets have no propulsion of their own, only an artificial mass and a battery. And a guidance system wouldn't really fit without stripping the actual damage-dealing part(two blast-door blocks on each side). In fact I'm a little surprised that the welders can actually reach the entire bullet.

I'm now imagining some redshirt standing a little too close to the back of the gravity cannon, and getting smooshed into the wall when it fires.

If you park a gravity generator on the actual bullet, you solve the problem of gravity leaking into your ship (the field only has to touch the mass, and a smaller field drastically reduces power cost) and ensure that it will continue to exert forward force until it is completely demolished.

Sorry to barge in with advice.

Playing Mercy, trying to fly to our Pharah to give her a damage boost. She ults and gets sniped immediately, half a heatbeat later I accidently end up getting nanoboosted.
So I did what every Mercy would do when nano'd in the middle of the enemy team, I started pewpewing. Ended up killing Reaper and Zenyatta with my gun and cherry tapping their Orisa with a punch, then finished with a tripple rez.
Was PotG to everyones lulz and surprise, tried to save the replay and ended up getting the bug when the replay only shows a wall and no sound (screw you Blizz).

I defeated the final boss in IJi 1.7
Does anyone else think the final boss looks like it's from paper Mario?

[Culise]

There's something moderately satisfying about jumping a warfleet right out of hyper literally on top of an enemy fleet of equivalent force, and proceeding to absolutely shred it to pieces without losing a single ship.  11.2 warscore out of a single battle is always a pleasant feeling, though not quite on the same level as pre-patch Victoria 2.

I've made another push to try to get into EU4. I got tired of the rather boring Byzantine cleanup in the Ottomans' start, so I decided to try my hand at Castile again. It's going quite well; I've at long last learned how to properly wage a war (i.e., use mercs when you don't have enough men instead of trying to build regiments in the middle of a war) and as such was able to put down the Granadan religious revolts. I managed to use the Castilian Civil War to increase relations with Aragón, nabbing myself a woman heir with which to Iberian Wed when the time comes. France hasn't suddenly decided to act like a maniac like my 1492 start from a few weeks ago and Aragón has been sane this time around. All in all, I'm doing pretty well; these are all pretty weak achievements in the grand scheme of things, but I've finally managed to get a decent game going, and that's more than I could've said in past games. Maybe I'll be able to see this one through to the end.

EU4, in case you missed it.

[TheInquisitor]

Despite only receiving two divisions of volunteers from Italy and one from Germany, I was able to crush los Rojos inside of six months. I Took the north almost immediately, and began my push towards Barcelona in order to deprive the commie bastards of a crucial port. In the South, I took Malaga, before finally breaking the back of the rebellion with a quick thrust towards Valencia. ˇCara Al Sol!
