Matthew Blair Posted December 11, 2004 Report Share Posted December 11, 2004 It is of great importance that the leader of the The Black Host # 3326 [An Iron Crown With Three Silmarils] contact me immediately.

Clan Elder 'Keen Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Judging from that battle report, I hope you have CIDS and other advanced weapon systems researched or you might be in some trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozboym Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 I don't think its as certain as that. Maneuverablity is a counter to drones, fighters and missiles. Have you noticed his 5.00 rating? Of the battles seen on these boards, that is a lot higher than most other ship's point defense rating. He therefore does have a defense agains drones and fighters, he just cannot shoot them down other than by destroying their carrier. As no one actually knows how defensive systems work at reducing damage, I think this is an interesting design as it relies on something that is known. Shields. That Fell Beast of his will absorb an awful lot of damage before it will take any hull integrity damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Blair Posted December 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Lone Star will be able to hold its own in combat. Those ships he destroyed were made over 10 months ago and nowhere near what I am cranking out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
President Guztov Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Those ships he destroyed were made over 10 months ago and nowhere near what I am cranking out now. 10 months isnt all that long a time. That one of the things I love about the game. 10 months ago you built a ship with what was then, Im assuming, the best that your race could produce. 10 months later and its still not bad. Its lacking a few things like armor and maybe a few sensors or some specific defensive items but it will still aquit itself well unless it gets checkmated at deployment location 1 by another ship with high damage output weapons like plasma torps or lances. In that case the shields will avail you not. Not for long anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
