If you're talking about the Geo's link, well, would say the only big update should be: "the Ionic Dispersers are mostly useless now!"

Gain Intel early. Gets the jump on Intel gathering. I rarely use Intel for active offensive projects. I'm way more interested in information gathered.
example:
1)Find a space port.
2)Target and destroy.
3)Hold, and regroup in-system.
4)Repeat

Use the Notes in the Galaxy Map to keep track of static information gathered on various systems (build queues, space ports, resupply bases, etc)

No, people are just getting tired of the constant nagging. More patches would be nice, but MM has stated that this is the final one. So, it does no good to keep suggesting there be more patches in every other thread.

I find the more amusing approach, as it pertains to deception, is the following:

Walk softly and don't tell them what kind of stick I have behind me. Imply that its a good thing that I am 6 feet tall and that being any shorter would possibly reveal the stick. And don't make me prove how big the stick is or is not!

Maybe we could get the Official Beta Testers to do a MOD.
A balance MOD that will be popular on PBW?
