Lord Deependra Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I've only run into one Heavy Cruiser and it was so far from my HW that it hasn't been worth my time sending warships after it. But I have more than enough fleet to treat one as a speed bump. The next big milestone will be the CORE fleets. I wonder what events will be triggered by taking out one of those?

hobknob Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I have killed several already. It was not very exciting. I have also run into several when I was only counting on a trio of CL's and that didn't go so well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfouasnon Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 A good 10 billion ton novadreadnaught and those things will......oh , wait a minute , this is Draco . Never mind ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 My screening elements in Andromeda fall in the 100M to 1B ton range. They screen the 20-40B ton ships. I think for Draco I just need to lop off the last 2-3 digits and that will probably do me for most everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakarissa Posted August 31, 2018 Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 Some questions regarding the DMX if fellow Draco players are willing to share info. 1) I'm aware of the Minelayers, Light Cruisers, Heavy Cruisers, Battleships, Monitors, and Orbital Mining Platforms. Has anyone encountered any other DMX ship type? 2) Has the DMX you're messing with changed up it's designs in response to seeing a particular weapon system repeatedly? Are they adapting to what they are encountering from the Players? 3) Are they expanding their system beacon network and, presumably, their combat patrols since you first encountered a DMX Sector? I just encountered my first system with DMX system beacons and it was for Sector 0317. Anyone else run across this Sector? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sakarissa Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 I warped into a system I suspected where a DMX minelayer came from this turn with my kitchen sink design. I'm pretty sure I'm right since it encountered 3 fleets of 3 light cruisers for a total of 9 light cruisers. I lost my ship and did some minor damage to two of the CLs. I'm not sure if the large number of CLs are part of the increased activity that Pete hinted at but that system definitely belongs to the DMX......for now. Has anyone else seen a concentration of DMX ships like this? Anything else weird about the DMX since Pete dropped his hint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Sure, seen 9+CLs and CA's at the same spot. This has been a while ago so nothing new in my view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Deependra Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 I ran a scout into 12 light cruisers this turn. It did not end well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jemanari Public Relations Posted December 30, 2018 Report Share Posted December 30, 2018 Ran into two sets of three light cruisers moving together this turn. They were in a system that did not have a DMX system beacon in it. Designation KO992 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakarissa Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 Thanks to everyone for posting their experiences with the DMX. I do consider them the primary enemy in Draco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fremen Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 The Fremen do not. We consider biological neighbors who come a lookin for trouble the primary enemy. the DMX are a nuisance. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Deependra Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 I would have to agree with the Fremen. The DMX have destroyed a lot of scouts, but they don't pose a serious threat. They are going down - at least one CORE fleet has been destroyed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 The DMX are not a problem beyond the 12 month mark. At which point anybody could either avoid them or destroy them. Now, if they all of sudden start to move around much more than they have been or the ships get bigger or more numerous then they could still be interesting. One can only hope....

Glamdring Posted January 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2019 I just encountered my largest DMX fleet to date. They appear to be moving about with enhanced forces. I was surprised but prepared (completly by luck and not skill) for this force: B4M class BB................................1 Destroyed EX4M class ML.............................1 Destroyed HK7B class CA..............................3 Destroyed Perhaps the DMX light cruiser is now a thing of the past. Lord Deependra.....can you expound on your rumour on the destruction of a DMX core fleet? Who? How? Losses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
