That's another huge advantage on the side of the Marines. They are likely to know the Roman War Machine like the back of their hand..

The Romans, on the other hand, have no such knowledge towards the Marines. Not to mention the weaponry is unlike anything they could probably comprehend.


The initial encounter(s) would go very poorly for the Romans.

Exactly what I was thinking, especially in the initial encounters, where the Romans would have no idea what they were up against. They'd have a several hundred/(thousand??) yard gap to cover before they would be close enough to use their own weaponry.. That entire spread would be littered with dead soldiers, making the march slow and cumbersome.. All the while getting blown apart by bullet fire.. Their armor would be worthless, and actually slow them down (Though, the Romans would likely catch on to that and go in more lightly armored after a few encounters)

Plus I'm no military buff, but couldn't the marines kind of "Run and Gun"? Where as I'm pretty sure Roman archers had to remain pretty stationary while aiming and firing a bow.

The Roman position did not hold up well in battles of mobility, a battle the Marines definitely bring to the front.

(As mentioned above, against Atilia)
This was a definite case in World War I.

A shame really. I feel Enterprise got canceled just as it was starting to get pretty good.

Aye, I remember that episode, it was pretty good. That's when Starfleet put down a 'Speed Limit', so to speak (as higher warps were more destructive), of Warp 5, iirc, unless otherwise directed or under extreme emergencies.

One little segment of Trek history I've always wanted to see is the Earth-Romulan war.

Oddly enough I just got done watching that episode a few weeks ago.

I got the impression that were able to discipline 'time travelers' if they ignored too many Starfleet regulations on time travel and such. Obviously, they overlooked Sisko shaking hands with Kirk, but if he went around trying to change history, then he' probably would of been court-martialed or something.

But then if Sisko did change history, and succeeded, then they would have never known, and Sisko could easily lie saying he didn't.. So who knows, the whole thing is obscure.

Well it's not like Marauder spams Nova fist non stop, and the game gives you ample time to get the hell out of range. That single attack hardly nullifies entire IO builds, because they are still taking a lot less damage from his normal attacks, or whatever adds they might have aggrod onto them.

Ive run dozens of Lambdas with all sorts of toons, I think I've been hit by his Nova fist once when I wasn't paying attention.. It really isn't that difficult to dodge.

Keye's is a bit different, but even with a set HP drain, Tanks are still left with overall more numerical HP then what a Blaster is left with. Which makes a large difference (compounded by Tanker's other defense attributes) if they are in the midst of a battle.

Wouldn't surprise me, with all the unhealthy junk a lot of the population lives off of now a days.

But ya, the height disparity could handily be attributed to what that person lived off while they were growing.

Heh, oddly enough I've heard people spamming their "All female SG" over the channels before.. And until I read your post, I always thought they were just referring to the Avatar's gender.

The fact that they might have meant real-life gender really never crossed my mind until now.. They certainly did not make it clear in their ads.

That sounds good. Heal a nice chunk of HP, and give the user a good amount of regen over a duration.

I wonder what that Vet Reward has in store for it.. However, with the new vet reward revamp they might just get rid of it completely, or as you said, extend it to more than just Travel Pools.

IIRC, they do the least amount, because it uses their level for the damage calculations..

So if you use it on a Tier1 bot, it will do a lot less damage.. (as they will be -2 levels to you)

Assault Bot would do equal-level damage, but who would want to do that?

So the IO sets would increase the capabilities of the their various AT's Inherents? I do like that idea, a lot.

Though Tanker's and Defender's would need something a bit different, the +res works fine for Tankers. Defenders could get, +special maybe? kind of a mini Powerboost effect.

lol solid point.. Even if they *did* do it, there's virtually no way to effectively enforce it.

That is an entirely different issue.. For starter's, no one in-game has to even know you're a female.

Now if they're harassing you because you're on a female toon, just /ignore them..

Making an female-only Server is taking it a bit overboard imo, and such a segregation is quite silly.. This isn't a gym, a sports team, or a locker room.. It's a video game.
