hobknob Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 So, are you looking at specific ship designs or totals for fleets? For veteran positions ships are built in the several 100M ton range well into the 20B ton range. Beyond 20B tons becomes problematic due to some game mechanics that can't be fixed.

Breoghan Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I'm guessing here, but I think he's talking about individual ships greater than 20b tons. (I thought the hang up was at the 40b ton mark, but I'll defer to the much more experienced guys here on such subjects) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Deependra Posted August 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hmm. Looks like I'd better build some ships. Now how does that SHIP order work again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Miles Avatar Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 40 billion tons. 20 turns to build a ship. thats long term planning. and quite an impressive amount of fuel or perhaps a not so impressive amount of Caldaran Crystals.

cestvel Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 The problem with big ships and fleets is the games cap at 2.000.000.000 items per component on ship or fleet. Esp. the cap on Fuel Tankage to 2.000.000.000 hapers movement for such big fleets. Even Highwaymans found loophole will not help, as it is actually the cap on carried fuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
