Default Re: Are you tough enough to be the \"King of the Hi

I just did a quick check... with 175% build rate, 150% for emergency build and 2k spaceyard, you get around 5250. I made a quick destroyer with max tech and standard 2 PD's and 4 APB's, and all the standard stuff, and it costs around 8500 mins. So, if you wanted the destroyer out in 2 turns, 4k build rate... not that hard to do, would need about a 145% build rate, so if you take hardy industralists you would need about 20% construction rate to do this... of course this is ignoring population modifiers.

Getting a destroyer out in one turn seems impossible, unless you tank all your other stats and put build rate to 150% AND choose hardy industralists for a total of 175% build rate, combined with the 1.5 emergency build and you get around 5250 which isn't nearly close to 8500... even with a 40% boost around your homeplanets, you still don't get enough.

So, my dreams of making a super race pump out destroyers in one turn is over lol. Oh well. Unless organic weapons turn out to lower the cost extragavantly... which I think they might... possibly combining organics with a high build rate and you could have the 1 turn destroyer.

Very rough so far, tell me what you think.
