Wow! I wish I could join you for a night, it looked fascinating.

Glad you liked it. I have asked a friend to tape it, as I was down again this evening. In fact, I just came back

In other related news:
From my Uni9 allaince I got the word that 4 Light Lasers equal the cost of 1 Heavy Laser. They claim 4 light ones are more effective than 1 heavy one.

While I find it hard to rate the defensive systems, my guess is they're right.

personally, I rely atm on ion cannons for the real stuff, but as was mentioned in the FAQ, the little ones make up for good cannon fodder, so I'm not shy of building some of them as well.
I have shield domes everywhere as soon as I can.

Also on the forums, defensive structure is all basically cannon fodder, it is your fleet that is important.

Damn, somebody else got to my cow. At least I got one good haul.

[germanos]

@ odin: lloks fine. Start building Cargo's and raid defensless inactives. Anybody could scan out easy meat for ya.
With the loot, invest in spying ability.

from then on: loot and build further, get computer tech to direct fleets.

Can't seem to post a pic of my colony.

ACK!

[Spaced Cowboy]

Hey tuber can you hit 3:76:10

Should need more than a few escort ships. Guy is attacking the alliance, and I don't want to be accused of bashing. You'll only need a few small cargos.

[Tuberski]

On my way.

ACK!

Wait a minute how many escorts do I need?

ACK!

I am trying to figure out the impact of new techs on flight times and what best to upgrade. What has an effect on flight times? Combustion Engine and Impulse Engine? (Hyperspace is still out of the question for me)

I have Combustion Engine 4 but I have yet to research Impulse....would I be wiser to go for Combustion 5 or Impulse 1?

Combustion improvements bring me closer to Large Cargo Ships and Recyclers, Impulse brings me closer to Cruisers and Colony ships.....all four are on my lists of "wants" (which is currently much larger than my "haves" ).

[Atragon]

Large Cargo is good, they're faster than small cargo, and impulse 5 is going to be pricy to get. Large cargo is also harder to kill than small cargo.

A light and heavy fighter ought to do it, if he hasn't built anything...by the looks of the production, I don't think so. I'd scan him again for you but all my fleet slots are full for the next 4 hours of so.

If you had a cruiser, that would be good.

Scan him, you should be able to. He's only about as stong as you thanks to constant pounding by....well you know.
