Armada art picture?  What does that mean?

He's referring to this one: http://fractalsoftworks.com/2011/12/12/the-armada/

Gameplay >>>>> Realism. Having to run from invisible, uncounterable ships because you didn't bring a Kryptonite Frigate that, if present, would make the phase ship completely worthless = bad gameplay.

Agreed 100%. Perfectly happy with the current implementation of phase cloaking. In fact, to prevent confusion, I think it'd be easier to just call it "phasing" instead of "phase cloaking," which may imply a visibility impact.

There are other things in the works, but nothing I can talk about just yet.
Well, in a few weeks I'll remind you that I'm entitled to a blog post. You HAVE to talk about something.
Well, I've restrained myself for three weeks. Is there anything you can write about yet?

Just had a bit of a look through the old blog entries and found this one from way back. One of the concept pictures there has me rather curious whether or not it was an early draft of the Doom class, especially since I'd have to say I prefer the look of it to the current Doom. Though I do tend to prefer the more regular shapes for my starships. Image in question is in the spoiler below, first ship

I know, I know. I'm not talking about a new blog post here, but still, it's the best place to post it, and a new thread isn't really a good option for this

Nice, looks like an early idea, or maybe a future idea? Or even a scraped one, nice find though.

Well, if you compare it to the size of the frigates in that picture, I'd say it's a preview of the destroyer-sized phase ship that's on the way.

More phase ships wouldn't hurt!

Any progress, even the little things, since the last release?  I've been itching to know.

50% happiness reached :P

Now, give us patch notes or a blog post, so we can praise them, sing to them, and discuss things before they are even released!

And we will be happy then.

Pestering and posting have an inverse relationship...
