Re: 3D Combat or What?
What was that??? Did I just hear someone say "wow I play in Strategic only mode"
The moment I saw StarFury I had nightmares of someone deciding to include this awesome feature in SEV

Re: 3D Combat or What?
No, you didn't.
Each "turn" is simply one second of nice, fair, balanced simultaneous move & fire action, at which point you can take half an hour to change all your orders if you wish.
In practice, however, strategic is the only way to play a serious game, for Obvious Reasons.

Re: 3D Combat or What?
How many times this year has SJ referenced the Battle of Tudran - 10? 15? 100?

Re: 3D Combat or What?
Meh. It is nothing compared to some battles they had in Return to Hell (2?) where there were so many ships that there were a lot of overlaps with 2 ships starting in the same square. 
What was that??? Did I just hear someone say "wow I play in Strategic only mode"
No, you did not. However, I technically could have, since I only really play SE4 in PBW mode. AI is just not a very satisfying opponent, and it doesn't respond well to my carefully RPed messages.  |
