Default Re: Star Control Mod

No, the cloakers are the Ilwrath. The Vux are the slow guys with really powerful short range lasers and limpets that slow down the enemy if you can actually manage to get them on.

Earth cruisers absolutely suck against Ilwrath because their missiles don't seek when the enemy is cloaked. The Pkunk AI does an awsome job of using their ship's maneuverability to stay just out of range and peck away, but I could never duplicate that feat myself. My preference was usually Orz with the cannon rotated to the rear or my main ship. Against the AI, I could also use Spathi quite well, staying close enough that the AI tries to shoot so my rear guns can use their guidance systems, but too far to actually get hit.
