Default Re: A few comments about the Romulan

To come back to the original topic posted by Master Belisarius: I too like the Klingons and Romulans very much, but I agree that the design of the attack and defense ships should be revised, at least the Version without modified components, that I have. It is not reasonable to have separate designs for very small and large ships. The AI will just stick to the small design in the later game.
Do you plan to post an update GodEmperor?

Atrocities,
I appreciate your comments....

Q,
I have been working on an update but I'm not entirely sure how to deal with the small ship/large ship problem. In the standard/ basic game, the AI needs to build missile ships early on, but, once destroyers are achieved I prefer them to use DUC's. I'll have a rethink of this approach though and see what I can come up with...Perhaps I'll use a beam weapon other than the DUC (which means I can include it ahead of missiles in the Weapon priority in the DesignCreation file - I cant do that of course with DUC's because all players start off with level 1 at game start)...

In the destroyer/point defence Version though, I do not need the small ships as I equip them with DUC's at the start (apart from the Romulan Defence ships which I included just to make the Romulan ships a bit more variable)....
