A planet's population dying off completely during a siege is retarded. Yes, some should die, but not all. If siege weapons were powerful enough to kill hundreds of millions (or even billions) of people, they'd also have the negative side-effect of destroying the planet to a degree where it'd be uninhabitable for hundreds, if not thousands of years.

Advent Illuminators need to be fixed. 5 Illuminators die to 6 Cobalt Frigates, with 2 Tec units left alive. Illuminators are supposed to be the equivalent to LRM, which are supposed to do well against light frigates.
That's an awful suggestion. Consider the fact that it will take a good 3 minutes to reach a planet, if not more on a map that isn't tiny. But regarding LRM... they're overrated IF you know how to counter them. 8 advent Flak will utterly destroy 6 LRM with 6 advent ships remaining alive. All offensive cruisers destroy LRM as well.

2 very important things that should be fixed IMHO: The Advent unit that pushes enemy ships away with its special ability is overpowered. Not so much because it pushes things away, but rather, because enemy ships that were pushed too far do not continue attacking. Rather, they will try to return to the spot they were pushed away from. If you have 5 units with the repulsion ability (I believe that's what it's called) you can just spam the ability while your enemy ships will spend their entire
When I try to host a game, I get a message that some players may not be able to join. I am able to join other games without problems. And no, monk's guide to port forwarding will not help me as my modem does not have port forwarding. It has application support, which allows me to open up ports. However, I have opened up 6000-6112 and I still get the same error. This is what application support looks like: http://img205.imageshack.us/my.php?image=belltb1.jpg What do I have to do to
