[quote who="Dargoon999" reply="17" id="1987073"] Quoting CobraA1, reply 13 I don't like mines. They just bog the game down. The computer goes crazy with them makes 1/2 a planet system filled up with them. If you do include mines in the final version I suggest you add an option to disable/remove them from the game. [/quote] Fine limit mines, but what abount mining neutral areas. you should be able to have a certain number of tactical s

ADVENT mines are th EASIEST to clear. The vasari mines and tec mines are hte more difficult ones. To clear avemnt mines just send a single scout ship inot the sector, and micro it NEAR amine field, assuming the user hasn't turned the mines off of AUTO AQUIRE every mine in the system will chase after you, just drage them to the other side of the system, and let the scout die....all the mines will stack in a neat little pike, and your entried fleet is free to come in and ravash the system

tell whomever is hosting to turn ALLOY off. thsi is a know bug preventing starbases from upgrade.

SNOWBALLING? no I dont think this would be possible becuase ALL mines are Phased out. they must be in range of something to detect and must bet set to AUTO if you dfetect it, or can be manually detonated assuming a shiop is nearby. It doesn't even make sense that they would snowball if you think about it. Cost per mine layed? well TEC has to pay per field already, and I really think that it is FAR too expensive, but I dont understand how you would quantify a cost for mines from a mine

advent can effectively and quickly clear a mine field with ILLUMINATORS ability to clone themselves...simply get 10-20 illuminators offworld, clone them on the world before the mined world, and run the clones in and suicide them into the mines. clears a nice path to the planet for your cap ship to go thru, as for the ruiners that are there that is a diffrernt issue. the miner should probably be made of paper, but until it is I recommend bombers.

Ive seen up to 60 specifically done by phantom1, he runs the gambit on all you planets killing your constructor vesssels, and then moves on...if you are unlucky enough to be using a single campital ship to colonize a heavily guarded planet and he catches you , you can kiss that cap ship goodbye. the initial moeny you are given is enough to build an extra frgate fact, and about 33 scouts...it works, but is lame, and will be an isor with Entrenchment. in fact ALL spam rushing will hopefull

ALLOY is the problem man.....if you are using alloy starbases CANNOT be upgraded.

WELL!!!! ADVENT Perhaps the most screwed up race so far is the advent. They have the most bugs of all the races where do i start. 1. The bug with the mixed fleet mines and fighters for both the Hangars and the Drone hosts is NOT fixed. I know the 1.1 patch was supposed to fix it, but now it does something comepletly different. Instead of getting a mini dump the planet, asteroid or neutral territory simply dissapears!!! yes the magical CLOAKED territory!! this happens w

So I have been playing entrenchment and I have to say great job! the update is fantastic, and adds a lot of options that I really REALLY like. there are of course issues with it that i have, and I will list them here, anyone else who has thoughts or suggestions or just thinks I'm completely wrong just list it here. i have highlited the bullets incase your lazy ass doesn' want to read all of my rhetoric.

Im talking abaut making it useful against player that know how to ruin your day. Ever seen 20 carriers run pass your defenses and Bomb rushing your tradeports?[/quote] Actually the starbase

wait longer or get more RAM with VIST I HAVE to be using a thumb drive with 4 gigs and READYBOOST to extend my ram and even THEN It will say not responding for up to 45 seconds.

I made this post from STARDOCK sorry about the white on yellow...
