To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

More content incoming! New ship for Vanguard, upgrades for control points and a very-very heavy armor have just come into Starfall Tactics to surprise you with a variety of available customization and tactical options.
Helskor
Helskor, the second Vanguard frigate, is ready to join the battle! This small ship wants to be your best quick strike force, flying around bigger vessels and laughing at their inability to turn the right side and get a hit with missiles.
Control Point Upgrade
To make your quick matches more interesting and intense we've just added some interesting mechanics, allowing players to upgrade control points.
By capturing control points one can now not only get more warp points, but also gain access to three differents upgrades:
Warp Station - additional warp points income and additional place for warping-in ships;
Outpost - increased field of view and stealth revealing;
Battle Station - defensive construction equipped with weapons which can shoot nearby ships.
Each upgrade has a warp point cost and applies instantly. Upgraded control points have hit points, armor and shields and can't be captured until you destroy upgrades.
Heavy Armor
Armor is a good way to protect your ships from most non-energy weapons. But what if your ship doesn't have enough slots? Heavy Armor is here to help you! Being really heavy and actually significantly slowing down ships, it grants so much armor that even smallest vessels can feel protected, for at least first few seconds of the battle.
