Re: pissed..combat-at wormhole questions-
Yeah such a useful tool is nullified due to a bad stacking or lack of stacking option in the game...I wonder if this will be any better or different in SEV

Re: pissed..combat-at wormhole questions-
In the early game, satellites with missiles will keep the AI raiders at bay. But as soon as PDC’s arrive on the board, they are just a waste of resources. Against humans, they are almost worthless. They do make good cheap recon devices once you have the sensors to put on them.

Re: pissed..combat-at wormhole questions-
A stack of sats on a WP can work if armed as he armed them, with Ripper Beams (or WMG) Then they provide a no-maintance punch to back up any other defenses you may have. They probably won't get more than a single salvo off, though..

Re: pissed..combat-at wormhole questions-
Satellite are indeed worthless. However, if you send a request to Aaron to address this issue in SE V, he might just do that. You never know.

Re: pissed..combat-at wormhole questions-
Perhaps you could use sats to back up a base? Its possible that they'll attack the base, and not the sats...

Re: pissed..combat-at wormhole questions-
PDC will still shoot at the sat, ignoring the base. So sat will still be worthless.
