Don't worry guys, i'll settle this entire argument by bringing in either a Scimitar-class Warbird or a The Retribution-class Warship (A.K.A. 12 screaming miles of FUCK YOU!!!"One of them is known for looking at a Hive fleet and saying "Don't worry, guys, i've got this" before soloing it. The other is capable of firing under cloak.
I've looked at the ships and I have to say right now these are ridiculously OP for this frp. The Scimitar Warbird because of a) It's perfect cloak b) It's weapon of Mass Destruction (turns the crew to stone, so essentially a one shot kill) c) It can fire under cloak and leave no visible weapon fire and d) It can still be a tank if it loses it's cloak.
The Retribution is less OP, but still very worrisome as it can fight off a fuckton of ships with ease meaning if it became an issue with other players, I'd have to throw a bunch of ridiculously OP ships to even have a chance at evening the playing field (e.g. damage the shields so it only has a percentage of what it started with or taking out a bunch of your guns so you can't wipe fleets with ease).
Unfortunately I can't accept either ship because of how powerful they are. Even if I permitted all ships with no restrictions, you'd be the clear winner as you have no weaknesses. Plus the point of the frp is mainly to have fun while settling an age-old debate on a hopefully level playing field. So I'm asking that you either change the ship or change universe entirely.
Now on a side note, when this frp starts, I'm permitting respawns when you lose a ship BUT it has to be a different universe to the one you last used and anyone that tries to suicide just to get their ship back won't have access to the ship for a while and if it continues, they'll be booted from the frp.
Hope everyone has a good week and I look forward to the stories you guys will tell us.
