So after Quar absolutely killed Mecha with a Corsev as starting cap. I decided to go ahead and use one as a starting cap against Mecha who was also using it as a starting cap. Dear god... demolition team... So we were fighting over a neutral well and this what happens. We bring in our frigate fleets. Send a ship into the middle of the pack and use demolition team to take off at least their shields. Oh crap run to your own well. Nvm demolition team kill half the

Problem is that even if it were "balanced" the double carrier combo that used to be so common would still win over the battleship combo since the carrier can kite while letting bombers do the work even with anti-SC ablities your battleships will run out of AM eventually regardless of balance changes and carrier caps don't need any AM to use their SCs.

[quote who="Coridane" reply="3" id="3151111"]I don't believe so. None that were on the way to the border worlds. Like I said, I really needed to establish a second, small force to go out and acquire those. Do asteroid fields typically yield crystal deposits?[/quote] Astroid fields, space junk, and gas planets yield random amounts of any type of mineral deposits. They work as well as the extractors at your capital so having them is a big bonus.

Right now, it seems like they're good solo ships, but I'd really like to see them be able to at least indirectly support their surrounding fleet. Yes, the Radiance has DAM, and yes, the Kol has FB, but that's about it aside raw damage or damage reduction. Idk about the Ko

I could care less about Diablo 3 atm. Diablo 3 will be a good game probably... hopefully but I just have no interest in the genre anymore. The hype is distorting my view of the game much like Skyrim did. Don't get me wrong I liked Diablo 2 and Skyrim but they just don't appeal to me anymore these days. I got pretty bored with RPG styled games as of late. and have no desire to go back to another maybe Elder Scrolls if they put 4 player Co-op in a future one.

It's quite easy to get your credit income up to 300/second within about ten minutes of the start. After that, why do you need 13 crystal per second when you can get about 8 per second using normal colony frigates and can just buy however much you want with that impossible-to-spend-flow-of-credits coming in?[/quote]

Despite Riddle's "harsh" tone. Starting with a Kol or Dunov is really not the best of choices at all. As with any race you usually start off with the Colony Cap or Carrier Cap. More so now the Colony since corvettes destroy carriers without a lot of flak around. The Advent Discord is actually a pretty viable starting cap but I would get this one as a second cap instead after the Progen Mothership. The TEC is ment for spamming as much as possible

It's player error that you fed the titan and you should be punished for doing so. There is no need to change exp values just change your tactics. Tanky capital ships and bombers are your counters to Titans.

Both have the primary counter of either scouting and avoiding, or skimming small parts of a fleet past the range of the ability, or starting a distraction attack to try and force a wail/RB. At least with RB there is a tiny indication it is coming. Wail? Nothing, and every single planet you own is able to do it. Endur

What Calloused said. I don't remember Stardock nor Ironclad saying this was a sequal. All I heard was stand-alone expansion. Wasn't Entrenchment and Diplomacy both 20-30 dollars being only micro expansions. For Trinity you get Rebellion for $30 so in comparison you are paying for a bigger expansion for the same price as the micro ones at release.

[quote who="Coridane" reply="16" id="3145007"]@Rovert and Fyrstar: Regarding your thoughts on the Advent Titans - are your thoughts still true after the changes they made in the recent patch?

Sure they have changed a bit but their overall roles and capiblities havn't been drastically changed.

I assume it was made so that RB can affect a Titan in a really bad way but in doing so they practically blocked off every other ship passing through. The suppose "suicide" slot just got eaiser to manage with a good choke point.
