The Corporation is new to this sector of space, and does support and use TEC... however we also admit our shortcomings where they exist.  And at this point, the Advent are the best fleet race.

 

So there is no unmasking needed - SivCorp is just that - SivCorp [e digicons]igichet:[/e]

An Advent player REEALLLY shouldn't be making Illums if there is a metric crap ton of TEC scouts rushing him.....

But advent can counter a scout rush quite as well as anyone else tho.

Did you know?

A fleet of 10-12 scouts is essential for a number of reasons

it is good against 6-8 illums as well as the same number of javelas and maybe even 10 assailants

If nothing else your scout fleet will help you guard the neutrals so your colony can easily acquire free resources

Food For thought

They could just make scouts of their own or disciples, Advent scouts are just as tough as their lf.

Except that if your opponent wants those resources, they will send a couple lfs or a cap and kill your scouts.

Word of advice, i guess i should call it "Food for thought" but whatever, scouts are good for rushing. If you get pinned down your fleet of scouts WILL die, and it will die fast.

... While i am new has a TEC commander I find this to be very entertiaing but perhaps the advant and TEc should put aside diffrences to kill the Xeno scum? (Ie the aliens)

OOC:

When i first started playing i choose TEC since their economic (which i tend to be) and their units have the least amount special fetures to try to deal with, meaning i could quickly deduce what each unit did to let me focus on learning basic gameplay. Im still trying out the other races to learn how to counter them [e digicons]}[/e] but its on going, the fourms are helpful though... sometimes.

 

End OOC (for a dramatic ending line)

The TEC shall prevail, for we are humanity,Pure humanity no less cultured, nor less savage then are fore fathers, and if there is one thing we can do it is most certianly this art known as war.

I'm still lost as to where people took the scout tactic and interpreted it as a rush. I'm not saying I've never used them offensively, because I have, but the VAST majority of the time I use them, I did it defensively.

Back on topic:

The power of scouts isn't this all powerful tactic that some seem to think it is, and that's not aimed at Sire. That's a statement in general. The fact that you need 3 scouts for every Illum is a mandate first off. 12 TEC scouts will destroy 4 illums, but I wouldn't be surprised if they lost to 5 illums.

Really, here's what scouts are good against:

Long Range Frigates

Colony Frigs

Other Scouts

Seige Frigates

Seekers WILL beat equal investment in Cobalts or Skinatras. This  is at the least what the numbers suggest. I don't really want to do a test cause the numbers really haven't lied to me yet when it comes to ship stats. 

Actually, I'll leave on this note. Take a look at the seekers stats. They're scary.

Seekers have the same stats as disciples, just a lower base DPS. Advent scouts (if i'm not mistaken, which i may be) kill all other scouts.

What i meant by saying that scouts will die on defense is that if you are being attacked by a normal ealry-mid game fleet, there will be a cap in the mix and scouts die quick to caps.

In all honesty, KoK is probably not a bad player, but he started three different threads about how dominant he is and backed it up with information in the game manual, it seemed like someone who was a bit too full of themself.

Sorry about the flaming KoK (no pun intended)

It's all good Sire [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

From the description on this site and my experience in the game, it seems quite obvious that Advent is radical islam -- in space.  So supporting Advent is like supporting terrorists.

Oh you're right Zuliris. If you compare it to our reality then TEC would be the US fighting a war against advent so against terrorism with quotes like "TEC shall prevail" they could get close. And then vasari would be the jews before they got back to israel cause the vasari eventualy want to return to their home system.  I should stop playing sins cause I support non of the mentioned real life factions then?

Where did you get Islam? I got some wierd combination of the Freman from dune and the Amazons.

 

And I don't think fundamental islamists would support their "space" counterparts being dominated by women.

Doesn't matter what they are.

Doesn't matter even if individually thier ships are more powerful.

They will be crushed by the TEC Industrial Machine!

Here we go, this is just what the game needs, instead of the next patch fixing the game the devs will make it more politically correct instead...

This is a call to all TEC commanders to rise up and put an end to these ridiculous aliens and pychic witches. We will rule the phase lanes. We will dominate the gravwells.

Nope, someone's gotta have a brain (or half of one) to be a troll, Zuliris' head seems emptier than the boy's locker room during cheerleading practice...

although i think the dev.'s need to iron out the middle ground and make it more balanced. theres a reason to why the Advent are the superior race.

(dont get me wrong im TEC all the way)

But the Advent is the big bad wolf. It blew away the other two pigs (Vasari, thought they were the s@%! beating around the TEC at first) and now the Advent is bearing down on the TEC (the last little pig)

But the TEC isnt easy push overs. their the underdogs yes. but thats what makes them so dangerous. they might not have the technology the Advent have. But they have the cash to keep sending wave after wave of fleets into the heart of the Advent.

Commodore Koerner enters the debate.

"The Advent are nothing more then a bully on the short bus. Brute force that can crush a kid one on one, but even he cant stand against everyone on the bus at once."

Really the Advent are like the Confederates, their deadly when you pit them in a battle but there isnt enough of them to take on the overwhelming numbers of the TEC eventually they will lose very large numbers of essential personel. When it comes to war of attrition, the side that has the ability to mass produce and heavily outnumbers the other will be the winner. Simply because they can easily replace equipment destroyed and heavy casualties will hardly dent their population.
