How much will the research cost?

**(/QUOTE)

Sure, just email me the proposal. And research cost will be 3 times the cost of the ship which is 4.58 million

Oh and Rak, I think it will just be easier if I didn't enter the fight at all, as we've apparently got different views of what ships can and can't do. So I'll go delete my post there.

No, don't delete it yet! I have a fleet which I could send in your edited post which make your victory more realistic.

Luke, those ships are halfway across the galaxy. A couple of jumps in a post is one thing.. but complete hops around the galaxy make this seem like we've got hypergates.

Spl: You've already entered the battle, and posts have been centered around it. A withdraw would effectively void all posts that came after it since they were based on that turn of play.

Because it was agreed upon that pirates could only infrequently capture a few ships; not twenty. Think about it, twenty Rapiers is an excessive number to get for free.

GR, did I post this or not? I want to up the price of my Artemis to 4 Million by increasing it's shields. It costs 3.34 Million right now, so how much shields do I get for 0.66 million?

Which makes 515 shields! Cool. I haven't actually researched the Artemis yet, so they'll all cost that. The prototype will cost 12 Million. Awaiting Page 3...
BariSaxGuy, could you update your ships list? The Artemis now has 515 shields and costs 4 Million. And next time I check your list, I want to see the image of it there!
