I am sure many of you are aware of the combat balance sandbox.. and many are starting to wonder Why I havent said anything or even if we are included...
Well yes we are .. I have not brought this subject to discussion yet mainly because I want to get all the facts about this project first so everyone that gets involved knows exactly what they are getting into.. This project is a small server set up to test specific issues with the combat balance changes. It will take you away from you main characters on you live servers so if you are thinking you are interested know that you will have less time available to play your MAINS..
I am allowed to invite 5 people. I have an idea of how I am going to make this selection but this may change as I get more details of this testing process.
If you have any questions please ask away and I will try to answer them or get them answered.. I will not go into how I am going to select now.. I will as soon as I can present all the facts about the test to you guys first. Ok..?
ask away on everything else that you need to know..

I have the same question as others. When I see "combat rebalance" I think of .... "combat". 
I understand that you can't tell us any details, but I assume that since you are asking this in the Architect forum that *some* aspects of the Combat Rebalance will involve changes / additions to the architect profession such that experienced architects would be useful as testers.
If that is correct, then I'm interested.

JOIN TEAM HAWTPANTS! Dvnce did!
that was only a moment of weakness being surrounded by all the hawties.. not a commitment
Besides.. I am going to start Team Big Fur Coat and Shaggy Pants
U nless you and your cohorts can win me over this weekend... 
as far as the sandbox that is all information that we are trying to get from the devs and I am sure will probably be discussed at the summit this weekend.. So you will know as soon as I know ....

Cool...so does this mean we finally get our long awaited and much requested Structure Module Launcher weapons and the ability to drop houses onto people from orbiting platforms????

Will our main chars be duped or will we be starting over?
Will we be crafting to help support the needs of th CB or will we be fighting?

Or can we make crafting stations into cluster bombs?? Fill the input hopper with stuff and when an unsuspecting schmoe comes by to use it, BOOM!!
OK, maybe not.
I'd be interested. I'm also a Rifleman, so I've got some combat skills if that's what they're looking for.

if you're asking for volunteers Dvnce, count me in! Would be interesting to see how they plan to involve Architects in the GCW. After being an architect since the second month afterthe game went live, the closest I've gotten was when someone bought 20 medium houses from me to build a fort around their base!
