Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

ECM is a cover for all counter mesures in this game as far as would understand any way.

For all attacks there is a defence.
So pumping out a signal 10 billions times stronger so the missiles can...

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

Missiles brain would not be that powerful that they would be able to have several ways of detecting an enenmy ship.
If you look at missiles of today then the set and forget missiles lock on one...

Re: Bring back SE III Player Tech Levels!

Another way is that you have a racial trait say called " Advanced Reasearch Race" worth 3000 points.
You then have them get an extra 10,000 RP for the entire game that way they get a big boost at...

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

I got a reply from God, Arron, and he says that it would be unfair to have ECM effect missiles as they are slow and can be dodge by ships.

If you are like me and think that this is wrong please...

Re: Counter Intelligence

The way I thought that it worked was pretty similar to you Phoenix-D except that if the enemies was going to work it was used up and defeats that one attack going back to the start.

It blocks...

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

Isn't sci-fi based on real life but taken to the Nth degree.

It makes it more fun to play with things that are grounded in real life but are far advanced of our tech now.

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

Yes you can armour missiles, you have to just make a new component.

I think that all weapons have a chance to miss or what is the point of ECM and combat sensor except for direct fire weapons.

Re: Why espionage is to powerful

You can also include things like listening Posts which can be on a "frieghter", that picks up enemy broadcasts in a system. That would allow you to find out details of ships etc.

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

To me if you have ECM pod on board it should effect all attacks to your ship.

It does seem even sillier to have it effect direct fire and not missile weapons, clearly that is not the way it works...

Re: Tactical Combat Bug

Sounds like a mod you have done is the problem.
Check the design data files for the races that they are the same as the new combat names for the default race data files.

Found some speech file errors though, they say the Klingon empire instead of Illuminati.

Re: Missiles: Do they ever miss???

I designed a concussion missile which could target fighter Groups. They get a huge minus to hit them but every one of my missiles hit the Groups during the combat.

Got to love the intel, you can do so much to your enemies <and friends>, such as getting them to declare war on each other.

I even starting to get a handle on the counter-intel projects.

Missiles: Do they ever miss???

I have been a lot of looking at missiles lately, designing new types etc, and I don't think that they miss EVER!!!
Even at 1%
Can anyone else confirm or refute this.
