Torpedo question

That is why you don't use max range unless you are using missiles, have a huge tech advantage over the enemy, have talismans, or are a masochist. Optimal usually works well for me.

Couple of other questions, I'll post them here to avoid starting another thread --

At what treaty can your treaty partners pass by your minefields and satellites?

Does a low level APB have any advantage over a DUC III? I noticed one race switched from using DUC IIIs to APB I. Seems like a step back.

Had another question but forgot what it was.... rats.

Any treaty of Non Agression or above will allow your partners to bypass your minefields and satellites.

Thanks.

I'm afraid if I sign this treaty, they'll come in and colonize my systems and I won't be able to stop them.

Yeah, that's the major downfall of any treaty. Just a hint: if you aren't in a horribly bad position with the AI you want to make a treaty with, then wait until you have all your core systems' planets colonized. Then the Ai can send colony ships all it wants and get nowhere.

Now, if you're in a tight spot, you might not want to do that. Grab any chance to make a treaty.

Fyron, in a correct way of development, ive found out that max range works REALY WELL well untill the late late stages of the game, and then correct design turn max range ships into a very annoying subject.

Well that is not very helpful unless you post specifics.
