Default Re: Above The Law Open PBW Game

ok, I don't know when is a good time to talk about stratgy, but I have played a while and thought I had a good handle on things and I just had a battle where I lost all my ships and only took 1 of Primitives, I didn't expect to live, but I thought to myself, WTH? I killed only 1.

I went Psysic and tried to RP the race by using just their type of weapons, I tried to use 2 types of ships, close fighting ships (with Teleknetic Projectors, 5 phased shields and alot of reg armor since the ships I am fighting have Shield Depleters) and Max distance ships (with Mental Singlitary Generator).

My strategy was set up to Has Weapons, Most Damaged, Nearest, Strongest. All ships break formation ect...

What I wanted, was the close in support ships to engage the enemy while the Max Range ships would sit back and thump them.

What happened, I was defending a Warp point, he came in, and all my ships bunched up, did not break up (couldn't move) and then just got slaughtered.

I had hoped that with my ships having many reg armor slots, it would absorb alot of damage.

Am I so messed up to try to limit myself to my races weapons AND/OR are we just pushed into the beams and that is all we can do if we want a chance?

Just a thought I wanted to discuss, sems the writing is on the wall in this game, though I have had a bLast.
