Default Re: KOTH: Attack of the Clones

DavidG,

It is possible to win, I agree, but it would be a rare fluke against someone who maxes out the offensive/defensive bonus. If you played with no combat enhancements, you would never hit their ships. So you would need to catch them by mining them into a corner to limit their expansion, or surprise them with masses of seekers early in the game. But this is very unlikely. If it comes down to ship to ship combat, you'll be fried. No escaping the math.

Thermo- it's very nice to find a planet with a moon (2 is even better) and build ship or fleet training on each. You will get 3% training per facility (3 X 3 = 9% training per turn for a planet with 2 moons). Not bad, eh?

I just think we should be fair to the newbies who don't realize what is going on when they get slaugtered (and frustrated) because they don't realize what the fundamentals are:

For KOTH, ALWAYS create your race with Berserker trait and +20 attack and +20 defense.
