Default Re: The ultimate Base

Well I just flew an LC through the center of the hole.

Nothing.

Damage only happens after your turn, when you get pulled around.

The poor ship is gonna get crushed next turn, though, since he got into a battle with a BC, and shields don't work in the hole system. took a few too many hit to the engines, and 3 movement isn't enough to fly in and out.

That point about the fighters having zero movement would prevent their use. I think that fighters should be available as emergency responce forces, launch and move to intercept, same turn.

I guess you'll just have to use baseships that can survive a turn at the center to be repaired by the base.

------------------

As for center combat, I suspect you won't see anything special, and the base would be in the center. If there was something to click on at the senter square, then maybe, but in this case, no.

As for attacking somebody in the center, one of the sides would have to have a base there, or move a ship in that they know they'll lose. The second race would have to attack that ship which is going to die anyways.

The only point to this would be if the first ship had emergency propulsion & was captured. It could then accellerate out of the area.
