lugal Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Hello Pete, its been almost a week since I heard from you on my shipyard issue. Have you been able to find out why I can't build more than 50 ships a turn yet? Counting shipyards, I have 20 million surplus power(got to love ICE).

Highwayman Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 just a thought but have you done just one SHIP order for more than 50 ships or multiple SHIP orders for 50 ships? i believe that the ship order is only good for 50 ships per order... maybe this helps. hope so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lugal Posted January 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Fml. In all these years I never saw that. Wasn't till these last few months that I have been building large numbers of ships in a single turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highwayman Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 well glad i was able to help you. and just a side note Pete had mentioned to me that if you are building screeners as a defense it is only helpful if the enemy doesnt have bridge. if he has bridge then one large hugmongous deathstar ship is the way to go.

hobknob Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I would also point out that large numbers of screens may simply be eliminated from the battle so as to speed up processing. I don't know when this is triggered, but I have seen it happen when much larger ships are present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highwayman Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 and if that were ever proven to be true then PETE needs his head on a spike. screeners are a part of this game (even if it is a poor defense) and as such should be eliminated the way the game is designed to be eliminated. not just taken out of the fight for the sake of speed in turns going out....

I would agree, except for the head on a spike part.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desmodus Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 If memory serves me, screens aren't eliminated but at some point a sub-routine kicks in that multiplies the FC and damage of each sides fleets to speed the process.

Highwayman Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 that would make a bit more sense but like i have said time after time these are things that the entire gaming community should know.. not just a select few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Just reporting that facts as observed by my captains.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
