CCP Fox Four alluded to something that I am jumping to conclusions about!

Amarr HAV aren't actually made of Gold like we initially thought..... we have even more expensive Platinum Tanks! |

Unobtainium. That's what us true O.G. pimp ballas roll with.
All my vehicles will be made of solid unobtainium.
Does that go for trillions for a slab the size of a goldball....? |

Fizzer94 wrote:Platinum is really dense and strong. Stronger than iron, and as resistant as gold, it is also the best conductive metal, making it quite resistant to electricity. Makes sense to that the Amarr would make armor out of it, especially if they have a large supply of it. Great metal for use in war machines if you can find a large supply of it, which shouldn't be too hard in space.
Good summary. That is exactly why I imagine this is done. Does Platinum have a high melting point as well. I imagine that would play a huge part in Amarr warfare considering they heat their weapons up several thousand degrees. |

Well I'm going to assume that you are being sarcastic, and considering I am A. the OP, and B. the guy who asked him about it you sir can just **** right off. |

I don't understand how your comment relates to what you quoted.
It relates to a question and a general train of conversation about the material value of platinum.
Btw saw some of your corp mates this evening, tough match, claimed 3 tanks and won, damn I'm looking forward to our inevitable match up! |

Madrugar- M1A1. Expensive, but worth it.
Gunnlogi- T-90. Cheaper, and gives comparable results of the M1A1
Platinum Tank- Tiger VI
Rubbish bin Tank - What were those zippy Japanese tanks called? |

I was thinking more something along the lines of rubbish bin tanks..... I have no idea where Matari would even lay their grubby little hands on fake diamonds. |

But Asirius wasn't talking about platinum's value. He was pointing out the contradictory qualities Fizzer said platinum had. Being somehow both conductive and resistant to electricity. I don't understand why you'd jump into that? Or what being the OP has to do with it?
Yeah Anonymous is a good team. Tough to play against when they're grouped. Kind of disappointed I can't fight alongside them right now.
But Planetside 2's pretty cool so far.
Well conductive in many cases you could say would be synonymous with resistant to electricity, easier to ground and disperse over its surface.
PS2 grates on you eventually when you realise you have no purpose.
And Yeah Anon and Unknown Killers are the two worth while groups to fight in Ama/Tari FW zone. |

The same thing happened to me with Dust.  Anon and Unknown are the same group. So you mean they're the one worthwhile group.
Same People?
Either way it is always a good fight. |
