Ship Design

Re: Ship Design

I use to build one minelayercomponent on each of my transports. That way they can lay any amount of mines except for in combat. But who needs mines in combat anyway?

You can load more mines too,...

Re: Remote minning

Sure about the 1% decrease per mining station? I tried the thing out on my brother's computer and he only has the demo (0.99) and mining decreased 1% per miner. To be exact it decreased 7% per turn...

Re: Small ships and mines

Small ships should get a bonus flying through a minefield. But there should be another bonus/malus for density of the minefield. Like 1000 mines in one place and you will hit one no matter how small...

Re: Remote minning

Sadly remote mining decreases the value of the planet/asteroid by 1 percentage point PER robominer. So with fifteen robos on one battlestation it takes only ten turns to suck the world dry.

No strategy game like SE 4 can do or should do without mines. Mines are a cost efficient way of keeping an nme at distance, so it simply is not realistic to do without any.
