[quote who="Yarlen" reply="42" id="3205453"]I am crushed and now sobbing. I hope you're happy.[/quote] I've got a paintball assault rifle with combat vest and ordered myself a cool army of two styled face mask. I've got to say that makes me pretty happy. I'll miss that Kol that was supposed to be displayed on my shelf though... Here's a question though...
I'm sorry to say that, due to a recent and large investment in paintball equipment, I'm going to have to cancel my pre-order. On the bright side, that makes one more available for someone else to buy.

Well okay, I forgot about the damage boost from dead ships. But that shouldn't last an awfully long time, and if your Kortuls are dying you should be retreating them until it we

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="9" id="3201331"] Quoting Toddwp, reply 3Wow, took out supporing fleet. Not much of mine left. Eradica then proceded to replenish its antimatter and destroy my fleet with kortuls dead, with only my titan and starbase left. Titan almost dead had to leave. Then the coward titan turns and runs. I'll admit I usually win the game before any titans get close to reaching level 10. But a lone Eradica who didn't get buffed by Unyielding will (turns b
Unfortunately, Disciple's Steal Antimatter ability cannot be used on capital ships - and I'm pretty sure Titans as well. Only on opposing frigates. Edit: oh wait that's been said already. Nevermind me then.
Some Titans actually become stronger the more ships you throw at it, like the Vasari Rebel titan, which can heal itself by feeding off of your ships, the more you have, the more it heals. The Eradica won't get stronger by sending more ships at it, but sending anything more than the necessary firepower to bring it down, preferably bombers and capital ships, will only allow it to deal more damage to your forces before you bring it down.

[quote who="DirtySanchezz" reply="10" id="3196213"]IMHO, Wail of the Sacrificed is cheating (in PvP games) because it is so severely overpowered and contradicts what the game is about. TEC starbase red button is a powerful ability too--but that can be avoided and it only affects a portion of a gravity well. Some titans have overpowered abilities--but you can run away from them if necessary. The Marza missile barrage is powerful--but you can run from the Marza or find a
I like these people who assume they can win through raw firepower without having to actually know how to play the game and then they run into something that can't be overcome by simple firepower and requires just a slight amount of know-how to defeat. Then they cry because they couldn't just steamroll to victory.
I've really grown to like the Discord Battleship. It looks sleek and menacing and non-human, whereas the Radiance still has typically human traits.
[quote who="phoenixst8r" reply="2" id="3194683"]The most beautiful titan is obviously the Eradica, the angel of death with ornate wings that brings destruction to the masses. Not only can it destroy entire fleets it does so with beauty bringing the power of death itself. I would say that purple is her best color =] The cap ship that looks the best to me would have to be the rapture, so elegant and so mischievous she brings enlightenment to heathens &nb
Well one Revelation with Guidance and two Discord battleships will probably do more psychic scream damage than an Eradica can do with Chastic Burst? Hell, with Guidance at max level, I think you can get two Psychic Screams off in a single Fracture. Hey look, you're doing more damage for less antimatter spent! With things like the Eradica and Discord Battleships roaming around, emptying your antimatter faster through more frequent ability use means the enemy
[quote who="Ryat" reply="1" id="3188609"]Fighters kill bombers. Build fighters and flak (they are not as effect vs bombers but they do help) to stop the bombers. Corvettes will help as well. BTW Build hangars with fighters. They work better.[/quote] And repair bays?
You're basing your statement on a single event in which you did not know what you were going up against. You said it yourself, you waited till your fleet was in ruins before opening up the Wiki to find out what the Eradica actually does. Just because of this, your argument is invalid.
Well the two Radiances probably burned all the Antimatter on both your Dunovs pretty damn fast, then the same to your other caps and hoshikos, which effectively cut your shield / hull restoration out of the game. The Advent on the other hand had plenty of shield regen thanks to the two progenitors, and since they were defending I'm willing to bet they were in range of some repair platforms and possibly antimatter regenerating temples of renewal.
You can easily select all fighters and / or bombers by alt-clicking one. shift clicking will add the clicked unit to your current selection. So if you alt-click a bomber, you'll select all bombers in the grav well. Then if you shift-alt click a fighter, you'll also select all fighters in the grav well.
I think the terraforming ability sounds like it would fit the Advent Rebels, who are worried about the purification and survival of the Unity rather than the Advent Loyalists who are still going on about killing all TEC and converting the entire galaxy to the Unity. Seems to me the Loyalists wouldn't take the time to terraform planets for their low-caste mind-controlled members taken from both TEC and Vasari ranks.
[quote who="Volt_Cruelerz" reply="19" id="3185117"]I like the idea of the prep upgrade but disagree with the numbers. L1 would be 60% of what it is now, L2 would be 100%, and L3 would be 140%.[/quote] Having never faced a player-led strip rush myself, I'll defer to your judgement on those numbers.
Find the source of the culture and destroy it. Culture nodes is already an available upgrade for Advent star bases. If you make it baseline to all starbases, cooked into aux gov then Advent will need something in compensation.
[quote who="bdelong498" reply="16" id="3185084"]Played a strip rush game the other day after the patch. It is still Op. The problem isn't that you get too many resources, but that you get them NOW. They get turned into ships much faster than if you waited for the planet to produce them. The real problem is that you can take a planet and immediately strip it. There needs to be a delay after colonization before you can strip. Say it has to have 1200

Wait wait wait... hold up a second there. You're trying to tell me that the giant 20 kilometer long space rail gun, the single largest weapon in the entire game, that fires shells bigger than yo mama at extremely high velocities and extremely long ranges deals too much damage?
