Be sure to use a modfolder, and keep your original data files safe!

=============================

- Master computers won't slow down a human player, though they might give you some time vs AIs.
- Keeping your distance is a fragile strategy. You need to stay at least AS_range + Enemy_speed away from your opponent, which means missiles. Most races load up on PD already.
- The Tachyon and Ion strategies would only work for ambushing a small force.
- Repulsor beams require you to have equal or larger ships than the enemy. This makes the Subverters more dangerous.
- Gobs of fighters and Carriers are good, but you will soon find you are up against thicker PD cannons along with the subverters...

Your best bet is probably the swarms of tiny ships with WMG.
At least until your opponent switches strategies again...
