    RIght, your purpose in life is now thus, do a mission against the GMG in Omnicron Beta, with a Stilleto, and survive, and complete the mission (a kill all ships mission ) and provide screenies!!

    KILRATHI!!!!!!! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I´d love to fight some more Gothri heavy fighters <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> and some Kamekh Cruisers, any Kilrathi ships would be sweeeeeet who wants Kilrathi?? and the Chruch of Man would be cool too <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    reasons could include, 1. The Coalition are still mopping up the last of the Alliance in Sol, and will be too busy rebuilding the Sol sector 2. All their ships were destroyed before Coalition HQ could be warned about the colony ships launching 3. Space is BIG. The Coalition couldnt possibly be bothered figuring out the precise trajectories of the sleeper ships to go destroy them. those are some possible theories on why the Coalition doesnt make an appearance after 800 years

    Bobthedog is quite good for .thn files, email him After all he made the new intro scapes for TNG <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> (the main menu backgrounds) this site has the FLED - Thorn, which can decompile the .thn files, into .lua files, as the scripting uses lua http://freelancer.mipu.de/freelancer-20.html there ya go <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    Ok, I´m going to delve as deep as I can into this, OK, the Houses have each declared war with each other, and have stopped trading with each other. Let´s look at the strategic advantages/disadvantages of each. Liberty: Advantages Liberty would have an easier time defeding it´s capital, it has the least systems connected to it. They have Battleships in each system, thus being able to protect thier planets from assualt. They build Tradelane/Jumpgate parts. They could create new lanes, while other could not. Thier fighters are the most agile Few rouge factions to worry about would have nomad prototype weapons after nomad invasion Disadvantages They have little or no resources left in any of thier systems, thus creation of new fighters will become extremely difficult Less powerful weaponry than other Houses. no H-fuel resources Bretonia: Advantages Still has plenty of mineral wealth left, including gold in Dublin, would be able to replace electronic systems (gold is a great conductor <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> Battleship in each system, would be left on guard only House, which can produce MOX - used in highly destructive weponry. Managed to not fall under rhienland control during nomad invasion Disadvantages quite a few rouge factions to worry about has no H-fuel or tradelane parts Kusari Advantages controls all H-fuel in Sirius, therefore, can fuel thier ships the most, no need to conserve it. GMG will side with them and the GMG whooped Rhienlands but in the 80 years war Disadvantages no mineral resources, once they run out of metal, thats it. easiest access to edge worlds, therefore, has most to worry about attacks from outcasts and corsairs. Lost all of it Naval forces after the nomad invasion Rhienland Advantages still has pleanty of mineral resources, including copper, diamonds, etc... most powerful ships out of houses, most powerful weaponry out of houses too, except for GMG Military forces left after nomad invasion would have cloaking capabilities MIght have some nomad prototype weapons Disadvantages Not much of Military left, most lost during occupying other houses doesnt have any control of H-fuel also has easy accss to border worlds, would have to worry about corsair Redhessian attacks out of all that? draw your own conclusions <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

    I dont think when they were hurrying the launch of the 5 sleeper ships, they were even thinking of cloaks, 800 years after the sleeper ships arrive, Sirius is populated, it is quite possible that they never knew about cloaking technology, or, when they arrived, where even bothering thinking about it, they wre more likely trying to get eveything underway. They most likely had to recreat most things, and redevelop certain technologies, as the result of getting away from the coalition, and saving thier people.
