Lord Deependra Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 I found a DMX Core fleet this turn. it was in orbit around an asteroid in the middle of the system, 1 OMP SFAC-88 (Orbital Mining Platform - 1,200,000,000 tons) 12 BM MRS1 (Monitor - 2,500,000 tons) 6 BB B4M (Battleship - 4,000,000 tons) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fremen Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Looks like you found the HQ for that DMX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Deependra Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Yep, as Glamdring first reported, it looks like each DMX Sector Command has a standard Core fleet which churns out their fleets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glamdring Posted August 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 The mysteries yet to be uncovered is the process of how the DMX Sector Commands give birth to new fleets. We know nothing of the rate of production that we can expect. What upgrades will be given to future ships and at what rate will we see improvement? Tactically we have yet to get an indication of how the DMX will deploy its future fleets. Will they send new improved fleets in the direction of areas they have had significant losses or will they send new fleets into areas they have had victories. In a nutshell, will they reinforce success or will they reinforce failures? We have much to learn and a LONG time before we will have the resources to mount attacks on the enemy Core forces. Do Andromeda players have any input on what the future holds (assuming Draco DMX are similar to Andromeda DMX)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 Didn't know there was any in andromeda game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Deependra Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 There were no active NPC forces in Andromeda. However, in the earlier version of the game (pre-Andromeda), the Death Machines were a playable race. Some people who played that have extrapolated some Death Machine tactics from that, but they are just speculating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fremen Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 There were the DMX and another race called the Plekton that showed up here and there but nothing like Draco. My suspicion is that there will be yet another 'trigger' that will be set off once the first OMP goes down. The Tckon may then deem us worthy and return to help them reclaim their vast empire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glamdring Posted August 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 A new variety of fleet organization was seen this turn. I saw a new combination of 3 light and 1 heavy cruisers with the same ship types as previously reported. I destoyed 3 light cruisers and 2 minelayers in another DMX fleet.

Isemann2 Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Having just started playing, anyone able to provide me a decent warship setup to deal with a basic DMX fleet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glamdring Posted August 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Having just started playing, anyone able to provide me a decent warship setup to deal with a basic DMX fleet? Anything with any combination of armor or weapon strength greater than the enemy total defense and attack power will carry the day. Don't dwell on details, just get sufficient armor and weapons. The biggest concern is guessing how many enemy ships you will face. The have been seen in packs of 3 or 6 light cruisers and now we are starting to see a heavy cruiser added to the mix. Zero, one, or two minelayers can also be in the fleet. I guess you prepare for the worst and hope for the best if you don't have recon ships ahead of your fleet.

richardjohns Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 I would say DMX are not the real threat I have the second empire within three of my empire. The first one made it to my home system. All the theories that ships won't make it to your homeworld is a bunch of foolishness. AP 1 ensures they will.
