  1. OOC: I'm not going to lie, I'm not an aeronautics engineer. I don't know what all the factors are that have to do with that, but I did notice the bend on the rotor. I couldn't tell you if it'd work or not. I picked it because I like the aesthetics, I could easily go pick an attack helicopter that would be just as effective as these specs with my tech.

    *Sighs* just assume it's a prototype and the finished craft has straight rotors.

    OOC: You could just turn off that central Motor.

  2. OOC: Now see, that was a display of disrespect. Transvaal was perfectly fine.

    OOC: Ranathar himself said he executed, and forced the Osean Peoples from their lands, and killed many of those that remained. Yes, my people have absolutely no reason to hate him.....

  3. President Ned of Nedland opposes this move.

    "Transvaal's imperialism continues and it leaves us all asking, "When will it stop?"" - President Ned

    Some highly Uneducated Words, from a Nation that still is lacking in knowledge of Africa. Transvaal is merely protecting Afrika from the scourge that has swept across it. The Nordic Invaders that displace, and murder hundreds of thousands of innocents."

  4. Frankly, small alliances or large alliances, it is all about community. Both offer their own style of community. Having gone from Polaris (at one point around 600+ members and now around 400 or so I believe) to Gremlins (around 118 members), there is a drastic difference in the style of community. Being a Polar from basically the beginning, I was part of a tight group of people and the newer, active members of the alliance who joined after us were included into this group. But there were many people that joined and basically did nothing except post here and there or go to war when Polaris needed them. As such, I knew and spoke to around 60-70 people out of 400-600 or so members.

    In Gremlins, while I am still relatively new to this alliance, most seem to know each other and there are relatively few inactive members. If I were to speak to 60-70 members of Gremlins, I would be speaking to around half. That is really a tight-knit community. The kind where everyone knows your name.

    While I love both alliances, each offer a unique style of community.

    So, regardless of politics or upward mobility, I do feel that many create alliances for community. Most alliances are started by groups of friends. Not a bunch of strangers who know nothing about one another.

    You left Polar?

    I no loves you anymore....

  5. A Public Contract Auction by Gründer Industries, Property of General Resource Ltd.

    Today, Gründer Industries has announced that it will be holding auctions for the contracts to several Aviation Parts.

    The First, is the Engine for an Aircraft that they are said to be developing by the codename "Switchblade(Not the American Switchblade, my own :) ). The Engine needs to have over 11500 kg [x g] class (23000 kg [x g] in overboost) and 650 MW in generation power.

    The Second Contract, is for an advanced Avionics Suit that will allow them to track 10-20 Targets at a time, and asses each threat to decide further action(Similar to the F/A-22, and PAK-FA Avionics Suits).

    The Third, and Oddest Contract is for a specialized Gear System that can be activated, and do its job in less than 3 Seconds, at a speed of 800 Kilometers Per hour. It is speculated that this could be part of an advanced Dogfighter Aircraft, and could revolutionize Aerial Combat.

    Gründer Industries has stated that all Corporations and Nations that provide the Aviation Parts for these Contracts will have full access to the Final Product.

    OOC: AE, I am looking for people to tech share with me these three things, I will share the Fighter itself, blah blah blah. I cannot use the tech for anything other than the Fighter Itself(Which is badass so far, still working out kinks in the Airframe).

  6. The SubtleKnifeWeilders Plane is also finished

    Its a dogfighter, don't try to kill someone with missiles on it, it does not have the Avionics Package to fight Modern fighters in Range, only at close in area can it be completely victorious, it is used as a ground attack/light fighter.

  8. I need something that is equivlent to a F-22 but looks swedish/kinda mass produced. <__<

    It should also have a $@pit that has 360 degree viewing, and at least 2 guns, not just missiles.

    Err, alright. One moment though, finishing Promised Lands fighter.
