  • Capturing Foor Axice

    Some test results....

    I set up a test "Foor Axice" approximately the way it was when we first attacked Apolyton (60k fuel ore, 1000 shields, 6000 fighters, q-sector 5%, atmos. 50%)

    I attacked first with a fully loaded ISS:

    ÛÛ This is a SHIELDED planet, you must destroy the shields to land! ÛÛ
    Quasar Blast!
    The console reports damages of 19307 battle points!
    18209 K3-A Fighters destroyed by the blast!
    [Pause]
    You have to destroy the Planetary Shields defending the planet to land.

    Fighters: 31791 / Shields 1000
    Option? (A,I,R,?):? A

    How many fighters do you wish to use (0 to 10,000) [0]? 10000
    You lost 10000 fighter(s)
    You destroyed 745 Planetary Shields
    Fighters: 21791 / Shields 255
    Option? (A,I,R,?):? A

    How many fighters do you wish to use (0 to 10,000) [0]? 10000
    You lost 3508 fighter(s)
    You destroyed 255 Planetary Shields
    You destroyed all the Shields, now wipe out the fighters!
    Quasar Blast!
    The console reports damages of 9653 battle points!
    9653 K3-A Fighters destroyed by the blast!
    [Pause]

    Fighter Attack!
    Combat computer reports damages of 8630 battle points!
    Life Support knocked out! Energy generation shut down!

    You rush to an escape pod and abandon ship...
    Your Imperial StarShip has been destroyed!

    Your trusty Escape Pod is functioning normally.
    Sector 100 will now be avoided in future navigation calculations.
    [Pause] - [Press Space or Enter to continue]
    So I went back and loaded up another ISS...


    ÛÛÛÛ WARNING! WARNING! Space Debris/Asteroids narrowly avoided! ÛÛÛÛ
    Quasar Blast!
    The console reports damages of 321 battle points!
    Your ship's shields absorb the brunt of the explosion!
    [Pause]

    Sector : 100 in uncharted space.
    Planets : <<<< (M) Foor Axice >>>> (Shielded)
    NavHaz : 1% (Space Debris/Asteroids)
    Warps to Sector(s) : (253) - 701 - (722) - (806)

    Command [TL=00:00:00]:[100] (?=Help)? : L



    Landing sequence engaged...

    Quasar Blast!
    The console reports damages of 4587 battle points!
    2908 K3-A Fighters destroyed by the blast!
    [Pause]

    Fighter Attack!
    Combat computer reports damages of 2650 battle points!
    2650 K3-A Fighters destroyed by the attack!
    [Pause]

        Thanks, sorry I didn't get the time to take a stab at that -- Aeturneus, what were the military reaction levels set to? On Foor Axice (and most every other planet we have), they are at 0% (no fighters attack), so I don't think you woul;d have gotten podded...

        The photon didn't dampen the QCannon? Is it a probability thing?

          photons dont work if there are 1000 shields on the planet. Defense ratio was 100% - if it had been 0% the figs wouldn't have attacked me, but I would have had to retreat anyways... and I didn't have enough shields to withstand the sector blast I would have taken.

              So you need over 1000 Planetary Shields to counter the effects of any Photon Topedeos used against you....interesting...
