Well, I found the patent for the railgun, and you're in luck, the US doesn't hold it. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6622713.html

Eh, If the US army holds the patent, it wont be that easy.

As far as I know, somebody has already patented railguns. The US probably holds it I guess.

Well, I guess Retech could technically dissallow you to study the existing tech.

So I can assume typical exoskeletons then?

Yes, everything is flawed slightly, but by fatal flaw, I mean "Shoot the robots legs and it falls over, and can't get up". So, a glaring weakness which can be easily exploited to cause huge damage to the opponent. And I'm guessing that whatever you pick will be taken from a TV show, anime or game, and it will probably be an enemy as well, which is designed to have a major weakness. (But they do look cool, most of the time.)

Hey, I'm just giving friendly advice. No doubt that when they are eventually revealed to the world, everyone will find some fatal flaw that can be exploited with incredible ease.

Except that walkers suck. Aim for the goddamned legs. Also, huge exoskeleton suits suck as well. You can still aim for the legs. Ideally, you want regular exoskeletons. Because I know how Icu likes the Code Geass/Z.O.E/whatever style mecha suits. But they suck.

Exactly why the pvp system in this game is terrible and needs a lot of work.

We have an emoticon bar at the side. If it isn't there, just click on the smiley face on the toolbar thingy.

"The moon embargoes Switzerland" Just waiting for it.

Hey guys, lets let a mild situation spiral out of control and then get the entire world to jump on a small-ish country, Oh wait...

Note how the post times are exactly the same.

But the fact is that spying in Hegemony DOESN'T WORK. If you tell them that you'll be sending spies in, then they're going to prepare for it. It's like OOC knowledge in D&D. You know that the orb with eyes is dangerous, and you know that charging directly at it would be a bad idea because you researched it before the game started, but according to the game, you don't know what it is. It's the same story. Or, you'll end up in a screaming match about whether or not the spies were caught.

Icu, Hegemony was never built for full RPing. Get used to it. Also, is it really that hard to type "Oh my god"? Everytime I see you put an acronym in capitals, I die a little inside.

Hurrrr.... Spying doesn't work in this game. You actually have to tell them about it, and that ruins the entire point of spying. Of course you're going to create anti-infiltration measures if somebody has told you "Hey buddy, I has agents in your base." Plus, without moderation it's going to be like this- "I send spies into whateversburg." "The police in whateversburg catch them" "Nu-uh, they were well trained" "My police are trained to catch spies." etc, ad infinitum.

Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile. I fail to see where the word "Nuclear" is in this. It could be a conventional explosive or something. less effective, yes, but still powerful.

I mean that it is quickly becoming another screaming match.

I feel this thread is rapidly deteriorating. You can't start a revolt by saying "I don't like that guy. Yeah, that one over there that keeps looking at other people funny."

Icu, they can patent the concept of a moss-oil engine in itself, so theres no way you can recreate it without drastically altering it, which would require more research.

Ahem. *Cough* Drumroll please. ... ... GRIMSMASH

It should be like quadruple that... <_<

Icu, hundered thousand man invasion forces don't work. Simple fact. It's kind of what messed up Hegemony V2, with people throwing huge numbers around. In real life, sending an invasion force of 50,000 is probably overkill.

Australia is still part of the TFTA. Just because you have influence doesn't mean it's a lap-dog.

Urgh. That's what I was afraid of. Now there is no stopping high level players from attacking those who have just left new player protection from just steamrolling the new players and taking all their resources, and killing all their troops. Yeah, I just found out about the free shot archers get, and I reckon I'll just use that strategy as well.
