Default Re: Computer combat Q

I did not say that I could ever make them not vulnerable.

I asked if there were any ideas as to making them more RESISTANT.

The H mounts for the computer virus give damge of something like 160, so multiple MCs would not appear to offer any chance unless I put more than 160 mass units into MCs. That would be 4 MC I's and a fifth MC.

The repulsers have a range of 4, it seems. Thus, the virus and subverter outrange it.

The wormhole random mover has a longer range than the Virus and subverter, so that might work sometimes.

Fighters are not much help, unless used with lots of missiles. In fact, given that the fighters dance around before they shoot because they like PD or something, I am tempted just to put kamikaze warheads on them.
