Re: Feature Wanted: Advanced Scorched Earth

Re: Combat problem...

Just a thought:

I think you already checked that there are no fleet commands (no fleet).

Are your ships refits of on older "direct fire" design that was/is set to "optimum" distance ?

Re: Unused weapons causing me to lose battles

As far as I understand:

WP's are always "stacked", including their systems, no matter what. So you really have one planet, with several missile launchers, and several (redundant) multiplex...

Master Computer I : 40kT (regardless of size of ship)
Master Computer III: 20kT
