I hope this proboard serves everyone well.
As you can see from my name i am a helmsman which means i can attack, evade or "taunt" and at the same time move the ship around. Once I know more about ship positions and weapon systems I can offer some advise, though I recommend attacking the Venusian ships or evading on the first day.
I hope this gets underway in less then 10 parsecs.
If there is any advise on how to run the proboard please do tell i am rather new, some advise I had in the last game I played was to make everyone a staff member to allow easier control.

First of all, you have to make the entire board invisible. It's not enough to hide one forum because guests can still see who's registered.

Ha sorry never really set this up before (guess I jumped the gun), so should "Guests must log in to view this board" be enough or do i have to do something else. |

Yeah, just hide the board. Under General Settings in the Admin area, the options you want are "Guests Must Login" and "Limited Registration"; set those to Yes. You don't need anything special for specific forums unless you want to be pedantic and password them (not necessary at all).

Done, and now on to real discussions, though since one of us is a spy (and only 2 people are here) I guess we shouldn't... kind of defeats the purpose. |

True, but we really don't know what each ship is capable of, at this point since The Ender was saying that there are unique abilities around out there.
Tac officer is pretty much what you would expect: I can shoot either the Primary gun, Torpedos, or PD once per "day", depending on the range to target.

Alright well i will keep us at medium range to the phallia today and fire the :
Medium-Range Archer Missiles: +2 to hit, 1d6 damage to up to two targets, +6 damage against unshielded targets.
at it, I am going to do this right before the day ends in case there is initiative and others might take down the shields first.
if our tac officer can fire the: MAC Gun: 1d12 + 8 damage
early we might be able to help take down a Venusian rebel ship today.
I may be able to hit a second ship and if I target them i may be able to maneuver us as well i need a rules clarification on it.

Well, i'm the Science officer.
I can recharge the shields by using up an emergency repair.
I can make our next torpedo attack re-roll if it fails.
I can make either the Helmsman or the Tactical Officer able to use two of their actions instead of one. But the other wont be able to use their powers at all.

If megatin can attack twice with our big gun I think that would be great(he is more skilled then me at it), though i wouldn't be able to have us dodge. Then again no one ever won a space battle by fleeing. Also Ringo might be gunning for me i kinda ruined his fun by accident in the Battle royal phalla. I still think our ship primarily has finishing moves, but until we actually get damaged I don't think evasive maneuvers or repairing things are necessary. Also i can taunt, the ESN Chief is the defender paladin tank here. ;D |

Hmm double firing works for me. I don't think we really need to dodge or taunt until some other ships start taking damage.

I think so if no one objects. Long day today so we can always switch it up if something changes.

So... I am going to attack with the main gun and maintain distance. Wish me luck.
