You should put Supply Storages on your vessels, especially if you do not have enough shields to soak up the engine depleting attacks. Losing all your engines will destroy their supply storage, and you cannot fire anything (including PDC) if you do not have any supply storage, even with the Quantum Reactor (an unlimited zero still gives zero for the game).
Umm... you can fire weaponry if you have no supply components but you have a quantum reactor. Ships with a quantum reactor do not have a 0, they have infinite supplies, just like a base or a satellite.

Arakiel, I have an impression that your ships are not trained at all. As well as your fleets. Aren't they?
Correct...soon to be corrected. I focused on other areas and neglected my ship and fleet training centers this time. Not sure how I managed to do that, but I did. Got the tech for it late Last night so I'll be building a few when I get back to the game tonight and hopefully things will start going better. Otherwise having a slugfest like this would be fun with a human opponent but against the AI it will quickly get boring.

Oops. You are correct Fyron; it looks like I have confused no supply with no supply storage (you need one supply to operate components without supplies, but you do not need storage to use the Quantum Reactor, contrary to what I stated).

The Ai just doesnt seem capable of handling opening WP into your systems because even though he had the tech (I assume he did anyway since he out-teched me and was building planets) he never once opened a new portal into my core systems. If he had I would have been screwed because I had gotten lazy and had all my forces in one spot on the front line. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
Some of the TDM Mod Pack races are very good at remakeing the galaxy map to their liking. Some other ones also use star destroyers -- but they're kinda random in selecting what star to nuke.

The AI open holes to systems that has not scouted yet... And usually open the hole from an empty system or a system where has not planets.
