    • Marines


      Call me really slow (or, even better, DON'T!), but is there a flag in Override outfits called Marines? I was reading through something and it said Marines...I had to get off, so I couldn't reply, so I don't have it...

    • In EVO 1.0.2 there is a new outfit called Marines which you get when you are doing part of the UE/Hinwar central objective. You get it during the part of the string where you end up dropping a bunch of UE Marines off at a station and they storm the place. Effectively it increases your crew by some amount and allows you to have greater odds of capturing ships when you board them (since the odds of capturing a ship is based in part upon your ship's crew compared to theirs).

    • What they need now some pictures to go with the outfit of the marines. I think you can alter their stregnth.. But not sure.

      Go look at the Nova screenshots and movies. The Marines outfit there is purchasable and has an outfit graphic.

      No you cannot change the strength of the marines. This is stated in the EVO Bible - you should read the appropriate part.

      Actually, you can alter the strength of the Marines outfit in ResEdit.

      EVO Bible:
      ModType 25 Marines
      Modval - Adds the value in ModVal to your shipÂ’s effective crew complement when calculating capture odds

      By changing the ModVal, you can alter the overall strength of the Marines outfit.

      Apology accepted (it was me who edited your karma). May I recommend "anti-aversion therapy on newbies" for you? 😉

      Yeah, I knew it was you. 2 things:

      1. In the future, add your name when you karmaslap someone. That way, if they need to talk to you about it, they can email you and discuss it with you.
      2. Stop beating on newbies? Never.
        Do it in a kinder, less antagonistic manner?
        Maybe.
