Im not too good when it comes to models/gfx and would love to use a borg cube, so is it possible for someone to create a massive borg cube (not planet size, but still much larger than caps) ? :) I can later add assimilation abilities and the like myself. it could be used later for a star trek mod, maybe as a guardian to some star system with massive resources (master of ori...borg)
just need the borg, with many nano tech regens and shield changing and tractor beams, they can also assimilate enemy vessels, theres already such an ability.
[quote] I'm also having issues with this. Seems like spamming anything but LRMs and some cobalts is getting pointless. They have light armor and do anti-medium frigate damage at long range... what do you have early game against that? only the scouts and fighters can deal anti-light damage, but I don't see myself getting new planets with a scout fleet. [/quote] for tec and advent, flaks come before Long range ships.

its nothing to do with allegiance, one of your enemies is tec and one of tecs highest research things spawns rebels at enemy planets.
well I saw this on youtube. [link="http://youtube.com/watch?v=j-SKublpoV4"]novalith video, camera follows them[/link]
ah the vasari vs advent bombers comparison again. [b]Without any buffs and from the drone/transporter.[/b] damage: squad of vasari bombers does 17.1 dps. squad of advent bombers does 17.7 dps. The developers used rounding for the display to be more user friendly, not that I think its necessary (even blizzard doesnt dumb down dps display in WOW and thats supposed to be simple) and thus many people might think its 21 dps. hp and armour: squad of vasari bombers have 42
each shot does 3500 damage, so 2 simultaneous shots can kill a 6000 hp planet (homeworld).
illuminator range 4800, light frigate range 3500. LRM range 8500.
oops meant sentinel in my 2nd comparison under hp

[quote] Fighters and scouts do 200% damage to LRMs. [/quote] didnt realize scouts did, hmm with their no cost and no supply demand, it could actually be effective to use them as part of a fleet.
[link="http://roe.totalgamingnetwork.com/wiki/index.php/Sins_of_a_Solar_Empire/Carrier"]all ship stats, carriers selected[/link] the link has all the stats for all ships (1.02), has carriers chosen atm. I cant give you an example, since I didnt state they were OP.
and they have a capital ship that eats frigates for breakfast, its called the whale and it swims through the ocean with its mouth open, eating little frigs that dont rush away in time.

[quote] bombers can damage other things not just caps, its just that they do extremely well vs caps, thats why its being discussed. Please dont do cost comparisons, because the bombers also kill other ships and structures, Im just stating what can happen before any of the bombers start dissapearing, not the carriers. Oh sorry, here I was thinking any discussion of 'unbalanced' elements might want to actually look at if it's actual
did I ever say to nerf bombers?
normal resources, fast speeds. oh since I play small-medium maps, fast is too slow for smaller maps, however it might be too fast for huge maps.
I didnt wanna be so direct, but okay :).
anyway theres a way tec (race specific) can kill 250 bombers instantly (1 button or 2) :).

[quote] Frankly, the cost of huge 30+ carrier fleets exposes why this is daft: you're spending 50k+ to kill a 3k ship. Wazoo: if there are local frigates or jump inhibitors you'll lose far more than 3k in carriers before you can escape, and their remaining forces will just pursue you anyway. Unless the strategy only works with yet more money spent on backup fleets or defences... <img id="ImageResize_Image_12" onload="ImageResizer.createOn(this);" src="http://images.stardock
