so your being overrun...

so your being overrun...

lots of questions:

1. does anyone have good cap ship combos that they like? (previously asked but its a good, debatable question)

2. how many cap ships total do you like to have in one fleet?

3. do you mix fighters in defense hangers and carriers/cap ships.? (balanced or specialized (ie. carriers have all fighters and hangers have all bombers or vise versa or mixed for all))

4. are you having fun blasting people into the vacuum of space and watching their heads pop? (i think i know the answer to this already)

I'll answer the ones I can think of real quick, before I go play again >.>

2. Depends on the fleet, the size/purpose of the fleet, the stage of the game, and the classes of capitals involved.

Currently, in my 5-system 131-planet marathon Advent game, I have two big attack fleets (6 capitals, 50-75 frigates/cruisers a piece) in the system I'm attacking, and then two smaller defensive fleets in my home system--since they're backed up by static defenses.

3. Generally, I mix fighters/bombers either 1:2 or 1:3. There was a battle fairly recently, though, where the enemy had 40-some squads; I went full fighters in that one. Hangars are generally 1:2 for me.

1. Cap ship combos depend on race and if you include the support cruisers. There's too many answers (including many that I haven't found yet) to give a simple answer.

2. Depends on size of opponents / map. Personally I rather enjoyed having all Marza Dreadnaughts in my TEC games, I don't care what cap ship combo was thrown at me, I pick out the biggest threat and smash it fast, then proceed against the next biggest.

3. Depends on your opponent. If I'm fighting Advant and they're using Anima against me I'll go to a 1:2 or 1:3 ratio, sometimes I go only bomber. It also depends on how many anti-fighter Frigates I have, if I've lost mine in combat and replacements aren't back yet I'll take out some bombers for fighters.

4. No, I instead take over planets by culture. You will be assimilated, resistance is futile
