Default Re: DevNull Mod Anti-Fighter Missles

Anti-fighter missiles are useless. APBs are hiting 25kT, 35kT, and 50kT fighters in Icons. The only advantage anti-fighter missiles have is to shoot before it's your turn.

I disagree, anti-fighter missiles are pretty awesome in Devnull Mod, especially due to their PD-Ability, which in fact allows ships and planets to hit 20 instead of 10 targets, given enough firepower.

If they were actual missiles with PD's autofiring ability, they would be useless, since every missile on the ship would fire at the first fighter in range.

lol Can you mod missiles to attack fighters?

I don't use missiles most the time. Sometimes I attack planets with CSM or defend a warp point. If you set your missile ships to point-blank range on a warp point they will target multiple ships.

Carrier Battles mod uses it extensively.
(At least my empire does, and my enemies are starting to counter my "missile buffet" strategy now. Gotta rush some direct fire ships to the front in order to draw fire and make my bombardment ships effective again)

I even had anti-missile missiles in for a while, but unfortunately, they crashed the combat replay generation.
