Cap Ships that can b deleted

July 1, 2008 1:17:13 AM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
Hey, i am quite new to this game and i wanna ask those who have played on multiplayer games b4 what is the capital ship that is quite negligible in 1 vs 1 game? U all can consider this as a poll. What is the capital ship that u will delete if u are the designer of this game for each race since they r nt useful. Choose one for each race. Thx..

They're all useful in certain situations. Some more so than others, but none are bad enough to completely remove.

Sorry, i wanna elaborate on the topic above. If u think they r none that are bad enough to b removed then choose one that u think is the least useful or maybe its useful but only in a specific condition. Assume that the map is small(one star) and 1 vs 1.

I find the Revelation to be the worst overall capital ship. The Vasari carrier is also kinda meh, unless I'm underestimating the utility of Microphasing Aura. The Akkan is the weakest of the 3 colony caps, but Armistice is very good.

I don't consider any deletable. They all serve some sort of purpose, whatever that may be. All capital ships are great for something.

I can never really find a good use for the antarak marauder. A player will always see the 'sneak attack' coming and the AI is too dumb to bother with anything fancy. By far the most useless cap IMO, I'll take a second (third, fourth...) space egg over this hunk of junk any day.

the revaluation and rapture battlecruisers are also kind of meh. I don't have enough experience with TEC caps to comment on them but I do remember being unimpressed with the colony ship one.

yea, Akkan is rather worthless, though early game it can speed up your expansion. Just avoid cap fights with it.

Saving grace is Armistice, micromanaged correctly, it can be used to great effect.

The Vasari Crippler is quite useless to me. Others might think differently.

Akkan's Ion bolt is invaluable to me and targeting uplink isn't bad.

Which is the Vasari Crippler?

Revelation is one of the best in 1 on 1, not the worst! In 1 v 1 it takes the enemy cap out of commission, and it has great bombing damage. When it reaches lvl 6 it can do some damage to enemy hw.

For Advent Rapture is the worst 1v1, only cause right now carriers suck, vengeance is not worth it, and for vertigo u kinda want rank 3.

For Vasari the carrier is the worst 1v1! For TEC 1v1 the worst would be Dunnov.
