the best way to beat repulse with TEC is to have a dunov and use EMP bomb. It takes away AM from the gaurdians because it is an aoe ability. you have to watch the AM reserves on the gaurdians as soon as they get high again you just emp bomb them. If he spams bombers get fighters and 1-2 KOLs fro flack burst. Then you need HCs to take out his illums plus hoshinkoes and if you can get a marza to lvl 6 it is golden. This fleet composion works i have tried it. The only problem is
top vasari
well right now im trying to learn TEC thats why im smurfing i started with the akkan not the marza so that is a different cap. As vasari i havent ever tried to use a garbage cap to start. If i ever do i will be sure to post a replay but this one is just to help people get a grasp of how to colonize quickly so you can have a huge econ when you meet you opponent.
yes you should give your system specks. I am running sins on Windows 7 without any problems at all.
I would really recommend that some people see this it will help newer people play better.
Here is a very short game that i recently had we quit because my ally dced but in it i colonized twice as quikly as anyone else in that game. Im giving up one of my smurfs just so some people can see some little tricks to mad colonization. Here I am Tractor and im playing TEC. _|~Uber
Then go online you will find much more of a challenge there.
lol Grey I wont deny that my opinion is a bit biased because vasari is my favorite race, but unlike you I do play all races recently I have been teaching myself how to play TEC and i have played a number of games as advent. The only race i had problems taking out a SB with is Advent and as I said earlier it was because i went econ ( 2 civic labs at my HW) He also got feed while i didnt i got about 1k hp left on the SB really i didnt blame that loss on the OPness of the vasari
i dont think the Vasari SB needs a nerf just earlier i took out a building SB with only 1 cap and 2 turrets that i started building when the SB was already 30% complete. if it was my HW i could have gotten many turrets up instead of just 2. This doesnt work normally against a pro but it shows that a SB can be countered. the only time i Have lost to a SB rush is when i went econ when someone was 3 jumps away from me.
[quote]btw my name needs to be moved up [/quote] and you need a reveiw like me. Maybe after a few games where i actuallly watch how you play i can reveiw you.
thats not quite what I ment. Illums need to be nerfed right now they beat HCs. even with a slight nerf advent will have a better lrf than the other races and it can be more balanced. right now illums have more HP and dmg per ship slot than HCs and they have more HP than vasari who should have more HP than advent who are sheild dependent. Even when carriers were strong in 1.1 there were still people who played advent and the races were played pretty evenly. now about 75% of the people
banned for not knowing that
[quote]What do you recommend for balance? I still see lots of people--including many skilled and experienced players--playing Vasari and TEC all the time in the online multiplayer game. If you nerf the Illumiantors then you would be removing one of the core reasons for playing Advent.[/quote] If illums are the core reason for playing advent then that alone shows how serious this needs to get rebalanced. People play vasari because you need someone to keep the nutrals and i rareley se
i would have to say volotile nanites+ Missile Barage. VN is weak on its own but imagine it with MB Telekinetic push Cleansing briliance - to finish off what VN and MD didnt And on the KOL frame
it gives the assilent an aoe attack but the dmg of the aoe is so small that it is probably better just to buy another assilent.
what about me?? you dont respect me sire??? [e digicons]:'([/e] vasari are ailiens. _|~Uber
really the magnetic clouds and empty nutral grav wells add some randomness to the game. For sure you shold always get a roid and a volc or ice planet beside your HW but magnetic clouds should still be in the game. Part of getting good at sins is learning how to adapt to the map. Now after saying that there has been times where i have been messed up by the random map generator. Once i had 4 jumps to the nearest planet. Things like taht need to be fixed but the random elements o

what is even more annoying than the bouncing empire tree is when you have 2000 fleet supply and a bouncing empire tree. you have to scroll down to reach the enemy ships then if it bounces you go all the way to the top of the tree again.
still no reveiw for me [e digicons]:'([/e] . ive played over 200 games now and no one can reveiw me [e digicons]v_v[/e] i must be a total noob . _|~Uber
i have to agree with volt. almost every cap has 1 or 2 abilities that is lackluster. the Marza has 3 out of 4 abilites that are amazing 1 being the best ability in the game. buffing incendiary skills would make it far too powerful.
[quote]Thanks Uber/Top Vasari. I had been wanting a replay with Howthe - the master Vasari Economist. It was helpful, and I may use it in another post discussing player strategies.[/quote] np Howthe proved in this game how poorly SB spamming works. 400 babies got just as much feed as gmoe but had almost no fleet due to SBs
well good job on your mod Mind. That game earlier i felt it was far more balanced than before. Enforcers were actually a threat to your illum fleet. fighters lasted longer againt flack and overseers worked great. I dont know about TEC but they will probably be quite balanced. Keep up your good work, _|~Uber
its not that there arnt any skilled players its just that skilled players are pretty much the only people who have stuck around though all of the problems with sins MP (Minidumps, desyncs, balance). There are still many casual people online its just that "skilled players" are on more often. if you host a game you will get people whether it is a "Skilled" game or not. Unfortunatly sins MP is dying with little help from the devs to fix major issues people just get enraged and dont play
here is a 2v3. Me (Uber) and Howthe? took on 400 babies, senorchavez and gmoe and won. A really good game we both managed to push for the most part even without a feeder. http://www.filefront.com/14218227/AutoRecord-08070953.record
you know its serious when an amish man has to get into modding. Well Amish i hope this works then maybe some of us can play with a partly balanced game.
