Suggestions / Exclude "junk" ships from portside bar Armsdealer inventories

« on: March 27, 2021, 03:11:18 AM »

Started the game, went from Jangala to Asharu and met with an armsdealer at the bar offering ships and weapons. Great! What's their stock?

The only ship they sell is a Kite(S). A ship that explicitly cannot have any weapons. As an early game thing where I don't have the funds to buy anything, this is quite hilarious, but in the mid-late game I can imagine it would be dissapointing to have gotten one of these characters at a portside bar and realise that their ship selection is just Kite(s), hounds and pirate grade ships. At the very least, the Kite (S) should be barred.

Rest of the stock was okay though, a heavy blaster, light needler, Burst PD laser and thunder wing. Just the highly dissapointing (but amusing) ship selection.

Suggestions / Faction Expeditions

« on: November 17, 2018, 05:26:35 PM »

1st things first, a question for Alex, are these supposed to occur earlymid game? Is the players first colony supposed to trigger the reaction I'm about to describe? If yes, then ignore the rest I probably should have built my fleet more before building a colony.

So, just had my first faction expedition to try and put down my operation, which, fair enough, was earning me a fair amount of credits ~150,000 a month, with a single colony.

The fleet dispatched to take care of my colony came from the Diktat severly outclassed my own forces. It contained 2 Conquests, and at least 3 Falcons, more destroyers than I had ships, to put this in context, I only had 3 collossus MkIIIs as my largest ships (namely as they can serve as great people carriers and 3 wings is on par with a Mora).

It feels a bit out of touch for what was a mining colony, at the literall (bottom) edge of the sector. The fuel costs alone should have made whatever bueracrat in charge wince at the idea, let alone the supplies burn for dealing with hyperspace storms. Hell, I'd expect to see them torch Umbra in that fashion before turning that sort of force at the sector edges.

Basically, the question boils down to, should the Diktat be sending the Lionguard to a colony on the edge of the sector?

Lore, Fan Media & Fiction / The Siege of Sindria - Youtube video

« on: May 28, 2017, 01:25:49 AM »

I've been running a let's play series on my channel for a while and most recently I found myself fighting the Diktat in orbit of Sindria, after spotting a relief fleet preparing to leave. What I then ended up with was an hour of battles back to back with them throwing a continuous supply of ships at my fleet.



Transverse jump is a god send to get your fleet out of difficult situations.
