Hi, whenever I startup Impulse to try and update my SoaE Entrenchment to the release edition (I have the beta on here), Impulse tries to update itself, but always fails. Without that update, it doesn't want to update anything else. My firewall allows Impulse to pass through it, and so I'm confused as to what is causing it. Should I just download the latest copy of Impulse from the website and reinstall that?

How does this hold for the TEC? I know they like heavily armoured warships and of course the good old humanies like their big guns ;) Asking as a new multiplayer player. Also, carriers or battleships? If you had to chose?
