Excuse me but what are these "primary weapons" that can target missiles ???<hr /></blockquote>I am going to mull this one over. I am positive I acheaved the effect I am talking about but now I am not sure how I acheived it. I did send in a wave of OK now I remember. You send in Fighters at the same combat speed as your Ships and the enemy ships fire at them before they fire at your ships. Yes I think that's it. Plus your fighters are designed to take punishment so that some do survive the the point defense weapons.<hr /></blockquote>Aah ! Fighters, yes it is a different matter. Massed up fighter stacks traveling with the same speed as ships can be a killer setup. Your opponent MUST set "do not fire on fighters = true" But then he must overload ships with PDC and watch out for heavy beams ships behind. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

One of the reasons I really like SEIV
for every tit there is a tat.

Can't think of a hidden fact this post.

For every narf, there's a waffle. For every waffle, there's a small pack of maple syrup. For every small pack of maple syrup, there's a narf.

'Kay, this is kinda under the heading of useless facts ...

If you build a value improvement plant on a planet with some resource value already greater than 255% (because you want to increase the % of another resource, obviously), that high resouce will be decreased down to 255% by the value improvement plant.

That's what you get for being greedy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
