Title: Tiny Man
Post by: altaree on April 18, 2007, 10:57:05 AM
What is a tinyman fleet?  I have a feeling it is a ship that was designed to not have components that are all <10 credits.  Are they named after a character?  Can players grief the world by creating HUGELY expensive ships with low values in everything that cause fleet power?  Things like 100% accuracy weapons and stuff?

ah my young friend...to find the answers to this question, simply dig through the forum...the TinyMan era is well documented and is a S.O. legend.  This very ship brought about numerous changes to ship design and mission parameters...

look in ship designs, I believe there is/was a topic on it there. If not, just dig backwards through GD, we've got like, 30-60 topics on tiny man and it's complications and such.

it was acually pretty easy to take on. just use a modern day boarder (huge mass high HP and acu with 0 attack to get as much hp as posible) and all you really needed was about 10bil marines on it to take out a "good" fleet of tiny man (thats its only flaw) and the tiny man was also obscenly easy to make and after you realize how someone made the first one it was like o duh!!! the thing a tiny man utilizes is a swarm bonus on small ships. a tiny man has high value parts on low weight itims and the better tiny mans are 5 weight
1 powercore
1 sheild
1 wepon
1 special
1 troop pod
5 total
