So, bad news for you: After I got rid of my damn cold, I'm back!

For this week, I have a nice view of the "red planet" (reminds me somehow of Earth 2150...) from an unknown submitter. If someone recognizes his work, please let me know, so I can add the name here.

Thx to Beli for taking over this job while I was ill. The last SotW is really nice.

(mental health condition doesn't count

)

After taking out a Q like a hot knife through butter, I decided to take a screenie of the most overpowered m6 in the game.

You took the wrong picture,...

It should have been the Hyperion Vanguard!

:D:D

I don't understand... that's not a Springblossom!?

imho the Vidar is OP because it can mount ten M/AM-L up front - that's a lot of Terran firepower and more than the Terran M7s! Nice picture!

This fleet is... terrifying! I don't think I'll be starting a war with the Terrans anytime soon!

Over 2 hours to finish. A cheap factory which almost anyone can buy not that far away. 7 million credits!?! Yes please! In what way is this mission "Very Hard?"

(And yes, this is using the latest patch)

This week I found an instant winner, when I looked in my archive for a new SotW: another masterpiece from ionasii. Since this screenshot instantly brought Epica's "Blank Infinity" with the verse "Do you cry to the heaven's high when you're confined in here?" to my mind, I simply have to declare it to be the new SotW. But don't be scared, since I by definition don't have the necessary skills to perform a proper image interpretation as a physics student, I won't try it.

Some gate camping

Not a very good screenshot, I just dropped 17 lasertowers at a yaki gate and hoped some cool stuff would drop such as IBL's or expensive missiles.

So far no luck. I also had to redo it as the destroyer chewed them all up, maybe a bad idea to bring a mammoth to the fight

Since you own a Titan you could probably afford a fully geared M7M. That said, board yaki/pirate ships and reload the game (from the moment your marines start to hack the ship's computer core) until you get 26 IBLs per M2 or 12 per M1.

That's a mammoth, not a destroyer

The yaki destoyer chewed up all my lasers

Ah my wording needs some work hehe.

But by the looks of it, it's a Titan.

The Mammoth shares a good part of the model of the Colossus - especially the forward part, while the Titan has a round "snout". Poor choice of a word, but you get the idea.

Yeah you're right, didnt have to cash to equip it so I renamed it Mammoth .. That confused me as well as I didnt remember doing that haha

So it has been over a year since I was on the forums last (last time I logged in was 24/12/09). So, I might as well contribute some screenshots.

One of my favorite fighters. Plenty of shields, plenty of firepower and looks beautiful as well. The Cutlass.

Oh and I finally figured out why all my other screens where in some odd resolutions .. I uploaded them as png and I guess photobucket doesnt like that

I never get tired of seeing this. Argon Nova - pure win and excellent all-rounder.
