Sorry, I don't normally record games against the AI. I do record multiplayer games simply so I can watch how the people who dominate play and try to improve my own game. I'm pretty sure the Advent had a Progenitor, 2 Radiance, and a Rapture, but I can't say for sure. I was playing against the Advent Rebels, too, so I'm sure Chastic Burst was part of it. I just don't understand how my entire fleet's health just melted away. I've never

My fleets are continuously getting wiped out, both by the AI and by other players, even when I have numbers and power advantages (Four lvl 5 plus cap ships (2 Durnovs, 1 Kol, 2 Sorva) and a titan (Ragnarov) on my side with 30 Kodiaks, 40 Percheron and 20 Hoshikos vs Five lvl 4+ capital ships, a starbase and a medium sized fleet, along with a bunch of defense platforms) I kept my fleet on the other side of the planet of the s

I seriously doubt this is how you talk to people in real life, where you don't have the anonymity of the internet to protect you. The other gentleman was kind enough to reply to your post on a VERY dead forum. He wasn't commanding you. He wasn't ordering you around. He was simply making a fu

[quote who="bilun" reply="5" id="3182681"]Best counter: wait until the patch tomorrow, they are getting a far worse damage type. Well, that or AoE damage. [/quote] So they're going to be pretty much useless then. If I wanted "Anti-Light" weapons I'd just use a regular friggate. It has more hp

[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="7" id="3182718"]Kol is bad period. There are simply better choices under most circumstances. You get a L6 Dunov? Get a Kol. Going against Advent spamming bombers? Get 2. Most other options? Get something else. Only reason it seems good in SP is because the AI is stupid and wastes it's precious DPS on it. [/quote] Which is exactly what I just said. The Kol strategy works fine for SP because

Wow... that's a lot of Hoshiko's

[quote who="Rovert10" reply="3" id="3182665"]Problem is getting actual players to target the Kol. Any smart player would just ignore the Kol and aim for the more vunerable Dunovs, carriers, and repair cruisers in the back. [/quote] See, I have barely even touched the multiplayer yet. I take a look at the ppl online playing against "unfair" ai and i'm like..... How about no? And I did play against another player once and got creamed in less than twenty minute

Would having a lone colonizing cap ship go one way and 10-15 corvettes escorting a colony ship the other way be the best way to go?

The Kol is built around the Finest Hour ability. GRG and Flak Burst can be spammed for a full minute while it's active. Also, combined with a couple Durnovs the Kol can dish out a lot of damage without having to worry about it's low antimatter. It usually ends up being the tank that soaks up damage while my carriers, Kodiaks and LRM's dish out the pain.

Does the Kohl's flak burst ability work against them?

I just started playing Sins, and I love the TEC. The capital ship that I like the look of the most is the Kol, It looks how I imagine a battleship would lol. I've done a lot of reading, and it seems that lately everyone has been saying the Kol is crap, while older posts swear by the Kol and the "Finest Hour" final ability. I usually take an Akkan as my starting Cap, simply because of the Colonize ability, but the Kol is generally my second, simply because I have never

Hi, my name is Justincj and I am totally new to Sins, and I am totally and utterly enraptured. I'm still trying to get the hang of managing my fleets. (I originally started playing against the AI on huge, sprawling maps.) Now, however, I learned that the best place to learn is on a small map, where I have less to manage and less fronts to defend against. I did try a little multiplayer, but I quickly fell behind. I was still trying to colonize while other pp
