I stay away from all rodents.

Ever seen the youtube channel cook with me.at?

Now you're on a brainwave akin to mine.

I need to find food now.

So we're all agreed. If it were not for the politicians of Cadar, the quadrant would be a safer and happier place.

Alliance after alliance. Its all so restrictive.

If we vote for a military man, he could solve the problem by creating more solar wars, trde wars, spy wars. And an increased focus on the manufacturing industry.

I mean, of course, some other military man. I have a ship full of torpedos, you can't expect me to leave them sitting in my ship. Lonely. Torpedos are very sensitive. They need to be polished, maintained. Tubes need to be scrubbed, engines and sails need repairs, otherwise torpedos get bored on flights that are too long. No, I can't do it. Let's find another military Cadar man who doesn't have a ship full of torps to... come home.... to...


I see a potential problem. Now where's that flow chart...
Ah... so now I just need to find the auxiliary forward reserve special operations torpedo button. Its around here somewhere...

Also, simpler interface designs for Cadar captains. Having 437 buttons for launching torpedos is thourough but takes excessive training time.

Torps away. Ah, the sweet smell of Torpocracy, Cadarian politics.

You mean you DON'T have the one where you click the big red button that says: Click here to destroy all non-Cadar Ships? It eliminates Training,you only need one day, it's simple, easy, and reliable.

Updated Cadar Response Analysis Process (CRAP) on Potential Targets chart

Good news ... I found a new 2nd officer. Actually, it was pieces of the old 2nd officer but Doctor Technologists work wonders these days.

You forgot an inportant question at the beginning:
"Is it an independent ship?" Yes - LAUNCH TORPEDO. No - Does that ship try to attack you?... Etc

[slayernz]

poryg, no I rechecked the flow chart and it still works fine. You will be able to shoot at an independent ship without fear you are breaching any regulations.

[poryg]

slayernz, I wonder, can ships surrender? I thought they fight till the end... And why isn't there any No option in Are you feeling charitable...?

[sheff]

Of course. You can surrender.

Go ahead.

Surrender.

*Lieutenant, did I tell you to stop? Load the tubes with our special surrender response modules.*

Hey! Some rodents are nice. We want you to come closer. Really ... really .. close.


Trust us.

Ships surrender ... usually when you've blown out their engines or put large enough holes in their crew spaces, they surrender. That's how you get to loot crap from them.

For Steel Song, I tend to skip the looting portion though - unless they have some artifacts. Don't really care about anything else with them.

Sorry,couldn't help it, nope the ships can't surrender unless they're alive , it's the crew that surrrenders.

It is still funny. You don't surrender when you are beaten... The temperature just drops only few degrees above absolute zero, so the crew will become like frozen... But none of this happens in opposing ships...

Then there is only one solution! Aliens...Jk, it must be an onboard A.I that never talks.

Hmm, according to this I am allowed to attack even Cadar ships, because Cadar smugglers carry contraband, Cadar warships look threatening,... And as these points are sooner than If the ship is cadar or not,...

[slayernz]

Yes of course you are able to attack Cadar ships so long as they do anything remotely bad. If they are minding their own business and not doing anything bad, you shooooooould leave them alone - except if you suspect they are carrying contraband. Then you should really check. It's okay if you don't find anything. It is always better to be safe than sorry.

I love that flowchart. I shared it on Facebook and Twitter and gave credit to the brilliant first cat, Mr. slayernz

[slayernz]

Thanking you kindly ... I would have done a flowchart for Steel Song attack strategy, but it kept ending up with someone pressing the self destruct button accidentally.
