Hello everybody, my name is RockCambo. My good friend you know as Piemanlives had told me about this game for months, and until now I had just gotten it.  I will admit upfront that I really have little interest in the steampunk genre (don't start a witch hunt for me, unless you want to :(), which is what kinda put me off from the game (aside from playing other games on Steam) . But despite this, I got it because I had been told that the gameplay is great and the community is awesome (and silly).

I'll man your guns if you need a hand, and maybe toss a wrench or hammer (maybe fire extinguisher) at a broken component. However, don't count on me flying any ships. That's why I've named my ship the Flying Wonder-Potato (because it'll be a wonder if I can fly it, and potatoes are potatoes).

I'll be getting more started in the coming weeks, I can't wait to play with or against you. My current highlight of my hour or so of first impressions involved staring at a plant for a good minute or two during the tutorials :P

Anyways, glad you got the game and hope to see you in the skies sometime.

Hullo all. I'm Wlonk, and I've been interested in this game for a bit. The Steam sale pushed me over the edge into getting it (and copies for friends!) and I played for the first time last night. I'm really interested in a lot of what Muse is doing here—I do tabletop game design myself, and video and tabletop design usually don't overlap this much in terms of social dynamics design.

Really exciting!

Hello all!

I'm Ferji and I got the game during the last Steam Sale and fell in love with those airships and the overall design of the game :).

Still learning the ropes but I hope my engineering wasn't that disastrous so far ;).

See you on deck!

I AM



THE PANTS MAN

I CAME HERE FOR THE PANTS



In any case, a friend bought me the game, I don't know his screen name though. It seems really cool and I'm already trying to become a decent engineer.

Welcome thepantsman!

You ever met LordFunPants?

Or Piemanlives?

Seems like you would get along with both of them.

Hi my name is geno and i'm a goioholic..  :D

I'm a hardcore fan of aliens (hence avatar and nickname etc) and been in many other games before. I really like the warm welcome and respectable community of this game and enjoy it very much. My nickname was very popular in AvP2 and i must have known at least 5 others with the same nickname. It comes from a comic Aliens: genocide and i liked that a lot back in the day. So i've pretty much kept that and friends know me still by that name.

I've met some of you ingame and hope to meet more. I love the fun, the teamwork and socialising with great players. Glad to be part of it.

Hello everybody, time to make my forum debut, I thought I would put an end to my forum lurking days and introduce myself to the community.
I am Karstark, I have been playing now for only about a a fortnight and so far I am pretty much addicted to this highly original, tactics and teamwork based, aero-nautical steam punk romp.
My first forays into airship skirmishes on GoI ended in catastrophe as I found the learning curve to be steep. But  I resolved to improve my skills and knowledge in order to become a valued crew member.  This lead me to the forums forums where I absorbed some of the beginner guides and theory craft threads. I also had the good fortune of meeting an accomplished player in game named Red Ace who took the time to teach myself and three other noobs all of the roles, responsibilities and techniues of each crew class. This was immensely helpful to those of us that were taken under his wing. We then went on to be a  extremely formidable crew for the next batch of games instead of floundering and faltering into firy oblivion.  I take my hat off to all players that take their time out to properly engage with and educate new players, welcoming  them to the game, giving them a positive first impression in addition to another good reason to want to play.
Since then I have become a tough opponent to play against, my strongest points being pilot and gunner. I thrive on the tactical aspects of the dogfight as well as the team cohesion with crew and friendly vessels required in order to best the enemy ships one way or another. Though I still have much and more to learn, I have taken to passing on my knowledge to fledglings and I welcome the opportunity to invest my time in a level 1 crew member as it guarantees a competent crew member and friend in the future.
I recognise many familiar names from this forum as being regulars in the public matches, I look forward to many more tense and frantic battles with you in the future.  As allies or as adversaries,  I value respect for one another, good sportsmanship and honour.

Good morning, good day, good evening and good night.

I am NorwegianWolf, although in-game I would like people to just refer to me as Wolf to make it easier for everyone. ;)
I started my Guns of Icarus career right of the bat as a captain, and got mostly good feedback (mostly).
I have since discovered my talent as an engineer seeing as the kleptomaniac that I am. :P
Just remember never to ask me to be a gunner, because you will regret it (only real good at sniping).

If anyone has questions about the game, or need any help just ask. I have a reputation for making people understand stuff (or so I  have been told).
