Re: Fighting For and Against Ulm -Expert Advice, Please

Mid-late game tactic:

Squads of mechanical men, first rank, attack closest with appropriate support troops in second/third ranks (arbalests/archers, cavalry, etc.)

Mechanical men ignore those...

Re: Poll: Are Phased Polaron Beams too powerful?

Again, if you look at it in terms of research invested, APB XII's do slightly higher average damage but take longer to research and are countered by low level shields that PPB's ignore.

Poll: Are Phased Polaron Beams too powerful?

I've come to believe the PPB's are too powerful. I tend to look at weapons in terms of the damage per turn per KT of the component. PPB's are WAY ahead of the other weapons.

There is something...

Re: Colonize

Re: Drones Are Useless

Hmm. I think my only beef with drones is I'm not sure they do anything that I can't already do. There's nothing unique about them. I'd rather build other units.

To be fair I haven't played with...

Re: Space Empires 2 and warp point defense

Yeah, I remember that too.

Mines are effective early game but just a nuisance later on. I'd really like to see the AI's do a better jobe of warphole defense as well.

Then again, the reason I...

Re: Combatting Telekinetic races

Master computers, sheild V's and Heavy/massive mount Phased polaron beams. PPB's have a higher damage per ton per turn factor than any other weapon in the game.

Also, ECM III+ Stealth Armor III +...

Re: Colonize

Another couple of neat design ideas:

1. Use light cruisers for colony ship hulls when you research them. They allow more components and six engines. The added speed is worth the cost in the mad...

Re: The Importance of Organics

Is it worthwhile converting Organics to Mineral or radiaocative?

Seems redundant when you can just build the facilites to produce them. Unless you're in a poor sector of the galaxy.

Re: OT-Game playing illegal in Greece

Beware dissing any cultures laws. Some of our own are so outdated and badly thought out it makes my head hurt.

Re: Cool tactic: Retrofitting on the Fly

Neat idea but construction bonuses don't apply to spaceborn shipyards.

Much better idea is a planetary shipyard on EVERY planet. Once you have your system capital identified in newly conquored...
