Hey anyone got any hints or tips for STBC? I use www.bcfiles.com for all my mods and installers..anyone use anything different??

nope.  but i have a tip.  when trying to take out a Nor type station.  fastest way is to take out the power core.

i see, i think the easiest way to take out Fed Starships is to disable their impulse engines and to destroy their warp engines. This is easy to do due to the construction and design of most UFP satrships. ie the nacelles stick out so you cn easily sever them at the pilons

no target them directly and they will explode and leak plasma

Phasers low intensity, sheilds, then impulse engines, its great playing with a downed target that just cant kill you. (hint, phaser blind spot)

yeah that would be just behind the Saucer Section and underneat the Warp Necells

i like playing as a klingon BoP,  cloaking, going right next to a baddie, de clock, and fire right inside shields...

Thats a bug that can be fixed with a patch. but i thought, nah, why spoil the fun :P

What i found fun, was fighting a galaxy class ship, as a freighter.  my record is 2 minutes (until being destryoed lmao, u didnt think i killed it did you??)

Congratulations Zach, not bad. whats your favorite class of ship in STBC??

You all talk about the stock vessels, but what about mod vessels such as the New Orleans class? (A beautiful ship - just imagine NCC-42199 on the hull :-)

my fave is oddly the a tie between a Romulan D'riduex class and a federation Steamrunner the fact that the nacells are part of the hull

I downloaded a neat Excelsior class ship and bridge mod, the ship runs fine, but the bridge takes ages to load on my ageing Athlon 1.3GHz. The Danube class looks really sound, until you realise it's bigger than a Galaxy...

I can't wait to try out some of the Nebula variants, or the Intrepid class.

*grave digging*

Heh, I finally got it, Its back on my desktop back home in Lemoore, but my favorite class is probably the BOP. But if they had the Valdore (Norexian or whatever you wanna call it from ST: Nemesis, im sure that it would be that). I totally enjoy going up again several Cardies at once, totally fun!

Ah, had almost forgotten about this fine piece of software. Must hunt out the install disc. My newer PC may just load that Excelsior class bridge in a reasonable time now. Smile
