New player struggling

[Andy Watkins]

Growltigga,

That is my point, I was using ordinary depleted uranium cannon, why are they a threat to plasma missiles? what's a PPB? what is it used for?

I did notice point defence weapons killed my capital ship missiles so at end of game I gave up and used 100% DUC's

I would be interested to hear what the scissor / paper / rock table is for SEIV weapons, many of the weapons just seemed pointless to me..

Sure, plasma missiles level 5 (top of the missile research tree) are lovely things to have all your ships equipped with but it can be galling to see them rendered ineffectual by some clever sod with DUC's, PPB and severl point defence cannon per ship

Most things either have a counter or balance out - it is like scissors, paper and stones[/QB][/quote]
