    Closed I propose a idea: non power armored units should be allowed to use and make teir 4 weapons.

    Given the state of the wiki and lack of a proper if any hard ruling on things I propose an idea. Non power armored infantry can use weapons up to tier 4, I have a couple reasons for this and in a moment, I'm going to go over them with you all. the statement "It's too powerful for an infantry...

    Closed Update DRv3 with new supercapital/Star-Fortress tiers

    I've proposed this idea before, and I'd like to do it again. I think that DRv3 could use 3 more tiers for ships in the Izanagi's size range, and for star fortresses in that size range, things like OOSY and Zodiac. This seems like a logical step for a bit more granularity that allows us to...

    Closed Expanding on the DR system to improve options

    Hello all! Before I get this discussion going, I'd like to make a request. The intention of this thread is not to bash on any particular faction, faction's articles, etc, etc. If you give an example to support/criticize an idea, please do so in as neutral a fashion as possible towards that...

    Tier system expansion

    This thread is about exactly what it sounds like. I'd like to expand the tier system slightly to better reflect the sizes of things, and give us a better way to represent very large objects such as stations. My proposal is to add 3 new tiers to the tier setup, for space stations and star...

    Beam Weapons and DRv3

    @Wes and @Fred - how are the damaging effects of beam weapons handled in DRv3? Does, say, a Tier 10 weapon capable of continuously firing for 10 seconds deals light anti-starship damage every “instant” of those 10 seconds - or does the Tier 10 value describe the sum of the weapon’s output over...

    DRv3 and Missiles

    Going to keep this brief as well, since I have work in 15 minutes; anyways, based upon the posts in this thread, missiles are still a prickly subject when it comes to weapon limitations - thus I’m curious as to what everyone’s thoughts are regarding what an “ideal” (and simplistic) missile...

    [DRv3] Calculator Support Thread

    So, a few days ago I had the brilliant idea of making a DRv3 calculator for my personal usage at 4 in the morning. Surprisingly enough, it works and, after a few bug fixes and content patches, is now (in my opinion) ready to go. Here's the link to the current stable release, version 1.30...
