religious talisman and attack rating

[wilhil]

Hi

I was wondering if I only have direct fire weapons and the religious talisman, do I not need to have any sensors or attack enhancers?

thanks

The talisment is a very powerful component, but it is ALWAYS adivisable to have multi tracking, EMC, and combat sensors on your designs.

Also Training is a good thing too.

ahh, sorry i meant combat sensors, I still use the multi sensors and other stuff!


also I didnt want to start another topic, but I am a bit confused, there are so many diffrent scanners wich all apprently do the same things, wich is the best?

Thanks

One is good for scanning for cloaked ships. I always use the most adavanced on my designs. That or Hyper Optics.

Really it is your choice. You should do a search for .... crap I don't remember the thread name. But iw as about Torpedos. I has a lot of excellent info in it about ship designs and such.

In stock game the type of scan doesn't matter so passive scan is as good as temporal scan. The best scanning component is Hyper Optics because it's easy to research. Ship and fleet training facilities are extremely important and they require Advanced Military Science 1-3, Hyper Optics require 4-6 so you get it almost for free.

As Atrocities said it's very important to train your ships and fleets even if you have talisman. It's a common mistake not to train ships when having talisman, but then the enemy hits your ships almost as well as if the had the talisman.

I will train my ships then, thanks for the advise, but I was wondering what does training actually do, in what areas and how does it improve the ships?
