Re: Old Timers

I'm still hanging around, though lurking more than anything else. First got involved when I bought Uncommon Valor: CftSP at Fry's in Concord, CA. I still have the CD in the garage somewhere. I can distinctly visualize the memory of picking it up from the store shelf, the store lighting, even some of...

Renaming a Renamed Ship

After renaming an applicable ship while it's still in the future availability queue, and after it's eventual arrival, is there any way of changing the ship's name again?

Thanks. :D

RE: Transport Aircraft - High Ops Loss Rates

<r> I suspect it's a bug, miscalculated coefficient, etc. of some kind.

RE: Transport Aircraft - High Ops Loss Rates

ORIGINAL: anarchyintheuk

You can try setting the squadrons on 20-30% rest.

I've done that. Sometimes even 50% when the need isn't so great. And all squadrons have surplus crews, filled to max.
