Lets see... April 25th...

Al Pacino and Ella Fitzgerald have birthdays. Its a new moon. The Kiwis and the kids down in Oz celebrate ANZAC day.

Oh... and the community holds its breath... for probably a lot of nothing.

lol slash, agree wholeheartedly, but i have my hopes...please let everything be fixed

i doubt they could still take on high players cuz you would prob need liek an ascd depo lvl 11 to take on the millions of ships other players have,but the wars will probally be better

Wow, ACS attack. How did I miss that one? That will definitely change the complexion of the game.

this will definitely change the way the game goes but its still in my top three games i think its real cool

I think it will add an important capability, but I don't see a major shift in the balance of power. Most of the top players are already in alliances and most of the top guys fleet save as it is. Catching somebody off guard is difficult enough as it is. Being able to mobilize troops in an alliance and catch somebody off guard is asking alot.

Though it will certainly motivate the one or two cocky top players who no longer see the need for fleet saving. I doubt even Mintaka will be safe with ACS attack in play.

I am very interested in to see how it is implemented. I think with strong leadership and coordination, it can be a very effective tool. There are a couple of smaller alliances that I have been watching grow very fast. At this point in the game, I know who I need to be fearful of. That number had dwindled, but with the ability to attack in coordination, I am sure I will get a second look from some of those alliances who may have been powerless to offer any real response to my aggression.

As far as those player who don't fleet save, I couldn't even tell who they are as I don't scan someone unless I am scouting them as prey or I know/suspect they are stalking me.

Of course, I have fleet saved almost since the beginning and my habits will not change. It only takes 1 player able to eat your fleet to keep you on your toes. Still, it should be a good addition to the game. I can't wait to see what we get.

if you guys think you will be able to acs attack mintaka you guys are deluding yourselves. i cant wait to see the first massive fleet... imagine every ship in RAWK get pwnt at once hahaha
