(sorry, Temjin; that's the 2nd post I've lost today while editing - can Ctrl-V save me? And...)
I'm terrified of the introduction of ship systems. I think I'm going to have to learn to play the game all over again.
The common phrase "that's a real game-changer" gets thrown around a lot in contexts where it's either not true or simply doesn't belong. Here, though with ship systems it is quite true indeed. I'm eager to see these but, like you, I am also just a wee bit nervous.
Oh and unlike some folks, I am greatly looking forward to the EMP-enabled Omen point-defense frigate!
Can you imagine the chip on its shoulder now? "PH3@R M3!" I admire the underdog.
