Suggestions / Re: Area of effect weapons (not lame)

« on: March 21, 2012, 07:12:29 PM »

I would prefer nuclear missiles (massive explosion, AOE) or a ballistic piece of artillery that explodes.  Singularities or Neutrino cascades aren't AOE, insamuch as they are special weapons. No, something that has a massive explosion would suit the balance much more (you can adjust explosion radius, shielded ships can handle it)

They're SUPPOSED to be unbalanced. They're more advanced ships: It's like a modern cruiser going up against a WWI dreadnought. The Dreadnought has ridiculous firepower (for its' time) but the cruiser just outperforms it. Now imagine where you can build 5 of these dreadnoughts or one of these cruisers.


What's going to happen is that while tri-tachyon ships will be superior, Hegemony ships will outnumber them. The tri-tachyon corp won't have the resources nor the manpower to build or crew the fleets the hegemony has. when viewing this from a interstellar perspective, tri-tachyon will be inferior (later, not now.)

Yeah, marines are usually the troops on board ships that launch expeditionary attacks and board enemy ships.

Just noticed it, you're making these in BSF ShipMaker, aren't you?

EDIT: Or using similar sprites.

Exactly. Single-planet "minor" factions that might expand to a few more planets and collapse in a few months.

I know factions haven't been added yet, but I would love to see a sort of "fluid" region. That is, rich worlds might expand over a few worlds, then suddenly collapse after a devastating raid by pirates on one of its' rich worlds. It's homeworld and previous planets are annexed by other powers, who proceed to war and form small empires/collapse.

All of this, while you travel around this. Just a little thought, while this game is still in development and that is being coded.
