Of course that any alliance or corp building a Titan would try to keep that in secret,
Wrong, ours is being built in NOL-M9, as far as what moon we wont say, but there are like 9 or 10 capital shipyards. Have to kill em all to get the ones that are building titans.

Think I'll fly a shuttle that day.. :)
Its mobile station. It will also prove very usefull for the owner in moving fleets.
then there is that matter of that deathweapon and blobs......id kind of like to be on blobv side once, when that weapon goes off..
Really you need two or 3 titans with super weapons. 1-2 to get all the plated battleships, and another to get all the pods.

Think what ever you want, but I'll say this, how many corps are there in BoB, and what does BNC.E does 24 hours a day for the last year or so?
The titan has 3 real purposes in life, to make fleet movements into hostile space a breeze (altho a logistical nightmare), to move a large amount of spare ships without having to worry about gate camps, and to use the superweapon on unsuspecting enemy fleets.
*edit* To Huff, please come, and please bring the numbers to do it, the clock is ticking.

There are a number of possibilities.
#1 It's all flat out lie, but you know us and our e-peens, what are the chances of us building one or more?
#2 We are building one, but not in NOL-M9, we just want you to think we're building one to get people to attack us. Think about the security of that one, we maintain total control of NOL-M9 23/7 for months, if it was built closer to empire it would allow the enemy to possibly sneak attack the POS, off line it, and cause us to lose all the minerals. Farther away from NOL would make logistics much harder.
#3 We're only building one, now that wouldn't be exactly fair for the other BoB CEO's e-peens now would it? If we were in the process of building others, they may not actually be in the build process.
#4 What we say is true, we're in the process of building multiple titans that will be completed at different times, we made it public knowledge in hope of forcing the enemies of BoB to commit to a full siege of NOL-M9 where they have to bring to bear their most expensive weapons, exposing them to a full counter-assault of BoB's most expensive weapons. It would force the enemy to fight on BoB's terms and we are confident we destroy every single last ship that enters NOL with the goal of killing our ship yards.
Last lil tidbits of info, do you remember "Capital Age"? It was the op after the BoB road trip to IRON space, do you know what we did for over a month and a half?
Do any of you have any idea how much BoB makes a day? I actually don't but I'm guessing it's allot, how long would it take the varius corps to collect enough to buy titan BPO's (They do show up on market watch but it's not a 100% correct) then buy say 30-40 billion worth of minerals.

Yeah I've heard they're building 1 maybe 2, we have no doubt that they're building them, I mean if they can put up a stupid amount of outposts in such a short time, they can build pretty much anything they want to.
ASCN have our permission to build their titans though :P

this thread says they are building 4, and mostly likely, had all the materials to build 4 of them at the time of that post
Like I said before.
Doesn't matter how many their building, they have our permission to do so :P
We like them, and I think they like us, they wont mess with our capital shippyards, we wont mess with theirs.

Look at how many jumps it is for a titan from BoB space to ASCN space. We're both lazy.

There are three things preventing titans from being in the game right now:
1.) Money. This one is so easily solved tho that it's not really a problem.
2.) Training a pilot. Much more of a roadblock than people might think.
3.) Logistics and build time. It's a *****. Period.
Titans are going to come. They won't be common tho. I have some doubts about thier use as offensive weapons, at least at first. As always though, someone will find a way to make it work. Maybe even us.
I seem to remember you saying you'd rather have every pilot in a dread/carrier/mothership then 1 in a titan.

Long answer - For now, yeah. If we figure out we want or need one (like when BoB or ASCN does something cool with one and our pilots go, "OMFG MUST HAVE UBER SHIP!!"), then we'll build one. Or three.
Short answer - Shhhhhh!!! I'm trying to scare people, damnit!
Tin Foyle Hat answer - Dianabolic already had our minerals two weeks ago.
Or when you finish the skills to fly one?

All I'm thinking right now is that a clash of the Titans is a battle I would PAY to go and see and be subsequently annihilated by as the solar system is cleansed by doomsday weapons.
What would be even better (and would never happen) is if both fleets commited a 100% of their forces to the fight with a titan on each side (no other capital ships) and both hit the super weapon killing the whole fleet leaving just the titans looking at each other.
