3.) Using a Warp Point in Tactical Combat

Could you possibly flee through the warp point (icon on bottom right of options)?

Aside from just the eye candy there are a lot of minor features shown off in the screenshots.

Anybody notice the list of system features in the top left corner of the system screens?

How about crew listing in the combat screen?

Or the fact there appears to be a retreat button in the combat screen?

One thing I am interested in knowing, if ground combat is going to be tactical now, will we be capable of targetting buildings? Can units reatreat from ground combat? Would make for some interesting hit and run missions. Land, smash as many facilities as possible, then retreat.

And in tactical combat will there only be built facilities? What about non player controlled cities or not fully built facilities?

1.) Maintenance on facilities
http://www.malfador.com/SE5scr004.htm
There aren't any currently, are there? Would make a resource limited game quite interesting.
GritEcon has facilities cost maintenance.
Its not as fun as I'd hoped though.

Oh well, I guess I'll just have to hope the RTV Atull game finishes up soon and then eliminate two rivals ASAP.
