Farewell mail-order hyperion

[Aury]

You were my best friend. When corporate outposts started popping up and I had 300kCr to use to purchase you.

Should Phoboses have hyperion reactors, or some Ares knock-off? (like they cloned the Yoroi for the Cydonian) I mean, Deimoses have SN2500's (which if I recall, are actually too small to run their equipment)

[Atarlost]

Could be. Making them military also means they won't show up in late game CW stations, which will make them a lot harder to get. I think only rin economy stations will carry level 10 military equipment with any frequency.

[Aury]

I know, right?
I actually thought they were /supposed/ to be non-military...

Maybe those settlements should provide military grade stuff?



And phoboses should have hyperions

[Ttech]

I'm confused here, are you suggesting to change it or what ?

[Aury]

Phobses & CW settlements, yes

Or make military stuff mail-orderable, but I think that would be severely unbalanced

Then again, an even larger pricetag to the already ridiculously pricy mail-ordered items could be applied if they are military...

[alterecco]

All that being said, this entire post relates to the fact that the hyperion is now classified as Military, and can therefore no longer be ordered at a trading post

Ordering 100 nuclear missiles is an unlikely scenario. However opening up *some* military stuff would be good.

[Aury]

I miss my mail-order hyperion.

[Ttech]

How about making military supplier stations instead?

[Aury]

Maybe using the unused corporate station graphic george has?

[Ttech]

I think davlink has several that would work.

If the reason for the 250 mw and 500 mw reactors to be military is power output, then it is silly for the 1 gw reactor not to be.

In every game I played, I got all of my 1 gw reactors from the Teraton fabricators.

You mean Dvelnk6?

@PM; well, its more of a balance issue

[PM]

If availability is a problem, let Point Juno and maybe CSCs upgrade all the way to 1 gw. Aside from fuel consumption, the only time I really need a 1 gw reactor is when I am loaded with level X devices near the end of the game.

Speaking of fuel consumption, I think fuel in general drains way too quickly, but that is another issue for another thread.

[Aury]

CSC's & PJ won't have a readily avaliable stock; its a ringer item; you'd only find them installlable by ringers or on sale individually elsewhere.
