Well i love TEC, the industrial juggernaut style fits me so well, I usually stick to 1v1/2v2/2v2v2 and in these map types you sometimes start relatively close to your enemy. The first thing i do is Cap ship factory>Crystal extractor>Colony frigate>2X scout frigates>the rest of your extractors in your system. The ships should be building as your finish up your extractors. Marza dreadnought FTW, the dmg this ship can put out is simply fantastic early on. with the Marza and some frigates y

Light carriers with 2 squadrons would be too much. as it is already a swarm of Light Carriers can usually kill/severely dmg your Main capital ship before your Flak frigs even begin to scratch them. If you are prone to heavy carriers then take the Sova carrier, Embargo is a good early game skill for boosting your credits and choking your enemies as TEC, and at level 6 it gets an ability that instantly replaces all it's own fighters/bombers and boosts the build speed of everything in the gravity w

There is an Antimatter cost to Phase jumping, it's 100 Anti-matter per jump, But if you only have 30 anti-matter it just puts you back to 0, Yeah I've noticed the AI acts smarter, it still seems they break off a losing attack far to late, in online play you can tell your screwed from the onset(unless remaining in the fight has some tactical advantage like buying time for defenses to be built at the next system, or reinforcements form an ally) and when you realize your screwed you immediately tur

Well i kind of expected that, but i also learned recently that the Akkan is 100pts slower then every other capital ship, that figure right there makes it useless to me. If anything speeds should be equal for capital ships(if your going for realism, the Akkan would be faster then a Kol) Also that being the case i think Ion blast should last for a longer duration with a larger Cool down timer, to actually give you the chance to manuvre out of the way.

Nope Ion shots completely shut down a ships systems from Sublight/Phase engines Construction abilities, Even passive regeneration. Your ship effectively becomes a 3000 credit hunk of junk... temporarily(or is supposed to)

I looked on the forums for a Post containing this but could not find on, so here goes. Has anyone else had the Problem of the Akkans Ion shot not doing what it says it does? If the enemy cap ship is sitting still in space it does seem to freeze it's shots for a little bit, but As my Allie in a 2vs2(Scyn) found out yesterday it didn't actually stop the enemy ship from moving. Allowing the enemy Kol to catch up, which resulted in the death of his Akkan unfortunately. Now we still won

Had an issue with 4 flak frigates failing to kill a Bomber squadron. i wasn't sure what the issue was, i thought maybe it was firing arc, but as yarlen pointed out they have guns everywhere. the scenario was pretty simple, 4 flak frigates in front of a Sova carrier, Bomber squadron from Hangar defense comes out to engage. The frigates were firing, I zoomed in and saw that, they just couldn't hit.

I agree, The game does take an incredibly long time to play out a match, I don't mind that much against the computer because I can easily save and resume. but for online play i can't devote 3-5 hour time slot just top finish a game. While some people take a lot of pleasure in building it all up, I view it as a means to an end. I'd like the ability to just clear a person out, would shorten game length, your Home world is ususally in the rear of your territory and is hard to get to anyway. Hell I'

All we know is 3rd week of September, so far thats about it.
