Ships used to be tanky, but somehow our industrialists started to make them more paper… I think they are stealing minerals, but I got no solid evidence. ---

I’m going to guess it’s not their ships that make them seem strange. Well I know if a Capsuleer read about the Minmatar Republic first before selecting them as a pilot home they should know that they are special. Please no hate! ---

What we’re doing in-game right now is aiding the presidential campaigns, not actually voting. > It all strikes me as a silly excuse to explain why non-Gallente are participating in the event, I certainly can’t recall this ever having been mentioned before this event, but it is what it is Well, technically speaking, pretty much every capsuleer is a billionaire. So we get to experience what real billionaires are already doing - they don’t exactly vote, but their money and influence can affect elections even in countries that they are not eligible to vote in. 😃 ---

But I don’t think they don’t know how to do it, they just opted in for a more simple and more maintainable solution. I remember design art from a fanfest many many years ago with modular POS structures that are put together like LEGO bricks. I don’t think they couldn’t pull it off, I just think that they went with a much more simple solution. ---

My 8 year old son pestered and pestered me to let him play the game. I expected it to be costly to me - it was. I expected him to hate it - he didn’t. He has been reasonably successful setting up in null, getting 4/5 of the ships he’s gotten from high sec to our pocket system. The other day I podded him after he made 26 jumps from Jita in a navy caracal. He took it well. ---

However many guns you fit on your ship, the game doubles it on the hull. So 1 gun always equals 2 guns, in reality. ---

> [@Meridan\_Night](#): > > However many guns you fit on your ship, the game doubles it on the hull. So 1 gun always equals 2 guns, in reality. I’m pretty sure that’s so that the ship can always shoot at a target even if it graphically is on the other side of the ship: it just uses the other gun. ---
