Default Re: To Suicide Junkie

S_J,

I mispoke. It is the armored Versions of your engines that are giving me fits. I AI-adapted the TDM-Modpack races over and a slew of them luv those engines. 40 structure on an Armored Ion Engine I is a real challenge for a nomad player that races for propulsion and EDW early. I will just have to abandon that strategy for now, and find another angle to use to pick off those colony ships.

Several of the changes in Gold and its patches have caught me by surprise. The shields counting against damage for EDW was a shocking jar, and the fact that bases have been crippled for resupply was a major kick in the pants for my nomads. Makes P&N much more challenging... which is always a good thing.

Baron, if I had had Light Cruisers early enough the mounts would have been invaluable, but by investing my research on EDW, my boarding ships don't have the gusto to capture engine-armored enemy LCs for analyzation, and I didn't research the Ship Construction tech soon enough.

Now, I am afraid that I will have to live out the rest of my remaining life pathetically huddled in opaque space storms dreaming of what might have been...
