Really, though, the best defense for your foundry is a half dozen planets between it and the front lines.

That would be a definite plus. The Titan is supposed to be your premier supercapital ship, we should be able to keep track of it easily.

This is a low importance question, but when the full game is released, will it be downloaded separately, or will the beta client just get updated to the release version? Also what's up with using steam rather than Impulse?

[quote who="rdvonz" reply="10" id="2026781"]Not that it would be substantial to the game at all or anything, but I always thought it was weird how none of the planets had any moons orbiting them. It's quite peculiar.

For example one world may have a large artificial ship construction ring orbiting around it. The structures is own be Interstellar Shipyards and for a 10,000 credits can be purchased for use. Once these are purchased they cannot be bought by any other empire. They can be destroyed however, and once a certain time ha

More realistic maneuvering. Spaceships do not have to move AT ALL to turn around, and yet I have had capitals fly into minefields when I tell them to fly the other way. In addition, this is more of an interesting addition than fixing an annoyance; Starbases have an upgrade that lets you move the planetary government to the starbase, so you don't lose your planet when it gets bombed back to the stone age. I think it would be cool if, when you built the

Well the Advent mines come from Soviet Russia, they hit you, but that isn't necessarily the reason for a failed attack. Fully upgraded starbases are monsters. Your best defense is to stay away, try using bombers and long range frigates, and stay out of range the best you can.
