An update; default events were a little too extreme.
This is the full atrocities version (8mb)

OK my comments regarding long range weapons and plasma weapons being nerf magnets sure as hell didn't even contemplate situations where 300 ships engage. However I'm going to revisit this subject after some more review.

Yeah, SJ and them get some insane battle going in pbw. All weapons in CB have their uses, and that's part of what makes it so awesome.

I'm getting an invalid culture error for the Imperials. they're warriors instead of berserkers.

Easy enough to fix when I get back from the cottage.

PISSED !!!
 

I downloaded Carrier Battles v1.6a, started a game, and so far it's an exercise in frustration: fighters WON'T load onto my carriers, Kinetic Missiles won't target seekers, and my ships all run out of supplies BEFORE they even leave the system.

What is the point of THIS???

Re: PISSED !!!
 

Make sure you're putting supply pods on your ships. you NEED them.

The Anti-missle missles only work in strategic combat, not tactical.

The Fighter bays have no cargo capacity in and of themselves. But you are forced to add cargo bays, too, so I don't know why the fighters wouldn't be loading...

Re: PISSED !!!
 

Dumbluck has most of the answers covered.

The SE4 UI does not support targetting seekers; use AUTO tactical, or strategic. Preferably simultaneous turns.

Might you be designing a carrier using a warship hull? That would allow you to put a fighter bay, but no cargo bays.

Re: PISSED !!!
 

I built Carriers on designated Carrier hulls, complete with cargo storage, then built fighters. Once the fighters were built I couldn't load them on the carrier. They also could not move within the system they were in. They were stuck, frackin' useless, on they planet they were built.

I tried the Kinetic Missiles in Non-auto tactical combat, and nothing happened. It wouldn't target or fire at any seekers fired at my ship. I was fully equipped to handle incoming missiles and got hammered because not a single frackin' thing worked like it said it would.
