Guys, light frigs counter carriers. Carriers counter LRMS. Everyone I've seen complaining about carriers has and sharing their strat has a huge flaw in it: it doesn't mention caps and it doesn't mention light frigs. Light frigs got buffed, give them a try. A set of 100 upkeep of light frigs can pwn a set of 150-200 upkeep of carriers. All you have to do is follow the carriers and the lfrigs will shoot at them while moving. Don't click on the

If by late game you mean 50+ planet systems where you hold more than 20, you're taking the wrong approach. To put it simply, Advent's strength is in numbers, all of its ships complement each other. This is why you always see that huge advent fleet rolling around like a snail. Use this to your advantage. They can't get anywhere quick, so work on their economy while slowing down their fleet. I like to send a group or two of ships into the depths of their economy and destroy all thei

in multiplayer, I've found maelstrom and gateway to be the most fun. They also happen to be the most played.

28 illums * 6 upkeep points each = 168 35 LRMs * 4 = 140 [B]He had the bigger fleet[/B], and if he used his Radiance properly, your LRMs werent attacking the illums, they were attacking him. Taunt is a amazing skill. Each race's mirror units arent mirrors, they have diff upkeep costs and strengths. You cant win against illums with LRMs.

You're pitting two low level support capital ships against one high level support cap ship that happens to have a heal. If you cant outdamage a 375 heal every 20 seconds and two carriers are your only method of damage, you have already lost. I bet if you take a single level 3 kol and pit it up against that progenitor it tears the progenitor to peices. You need to use caps in their forte. If you want to be a cap buster, I suggest Kol battleships.

I personally think the TEC caps look the best, even though I play Advent :( The Kol and Sova are my favorites. Aside from them, the Radiance is pretty sweet as well.

I think it is balanced right now, and here's why: The upkeep hits some races harder than others, specifically Advent. TEC can maintain a strong enough economy easily to keep a full fleet and rebuild it in later games, where Vasari RA removes the need of an economy...advent not so much. However, advent's army in combination with its capitals is more effective per pop than other races.. If you can manage to max your capital slots and get them all to level 4 (with hostility upgrade), it

[quote]Malice and Cleansing Brilliance, by any chance?If you're worried about fighting it, it's counterable by any one of the Capital Ships that have disabling abilities, since all you need to do is keep one of the capitals tied up to completely negate the ability. Although if an Advent is abusing Repulsion it can be a real pain to keep them disabled.I don't view it as a fundamental imbalance though because of how it can be countered (and leveling those ships then guarding them can be quite a pa

Hey, look on the bright side. Its not a deliverance engine!
