    Okay, now that the deadline has passed and approvals are being handed out its time to reveal my secret weapon.

    Weighing in just under 5 mass ea these little power houses pack a stunning arsenal.

    On their right, a auto-cannon with anti-missile system built into the shoulder, allowing even a small number of PeeWee units to accurately shoot down all but the most intense missile bombardments.
    On their left, a Mercury vapor laser with proprietary gain medium.
    Powered by a ship systems reactor this unit is capable of melting through the hull ships like butter.
    In addition to this a multi-purpose missile launcher has been packed into the left shoulder, for when you just need to blow stuff up.

    Though normally reserved for ground warfare this suit has had a thrust unit installed into the back just below a standard docking unit, allowing for both space flight and rapid deployment as required.

    Fielding a small army I plan on grasping victory through superior mecha warfare.
    Because everyone knows mecha are better than space ships right?
    That little guy is adorable! Mind if I steal most of the design? I want to deploy thousands of them as drones for my own mech.

    Ok this isn't even funny. Tournament starts tomorrow and I don't even know whether or not I'm allowed to participate at all, let alone when and how.

    They're probably on vacation again, try next month

    Or go to http://starside.enjin.com/home , mouse over your name in the top right and you'll get a dropdown menu like this:


    Click "applications" and you'll get a weird menu that says no applications; ignore this and click on MY APPS to the right of the trashcan. This should bring up your application with it's status.

    Website is weird as shit, i haven't gotten any fightdates yet either, think we get those this evening. Or next month. Maybe we can send a carrier pidgeon to hawaii.

    I'm in finals! Can't wait to see who will remain against me.

    Swarmers are not a big deal, they can't reach you when you're flying at 300mps, you also dodge a lot of cannon fire (beams are even worst at hitting you at this speed), that's why my ship remained unscratched after today's fights. Once lower than 25% my shields becomes much stronger than usual, especially against missiles. Because armor is not protected by shields anymore and mitigate damages before they reach the shield (shield has ion defensive aditionally) and the shield can reload more easely. I only fear brutal DPS or high alpha damage so I hope tomorrow someone will pop on top of that with some kind of crazy godlikegun and show how much a 12k ship is supposed to hurt.

    that was awesome I'm looking forward to tomorrow's fights! <3
    also starside staff thank you you're the bests
