Title: Video Preview: Hypervelocity

I talk about fighter supply, planet specialization, and then blow up a Carrack with a Hypervelocity Gun because that's totally a proportional response.

When speaking about planet specialization, you mentioned that it was first implemented with the Forbidden Worlds DLC. Does this mean the Forbidden Worlds DLC will be required in order to install Ascendancy?

Is there any way to tell the planet which ship to hyperV?

I realized when one of my planets was being attacked I didn't like the ship the planet was attacking...

No, you can play the mod regardless of whether or not you have the DLC; I was just saying it was an idea they first started with in there, and that we were expanding in different ways.

The Hypervelocity Gun ability comes from the Naval Command Station. You can target it manually like any other ability. I've still been working on getting the icons in for that stuff so it may have been harder to find.

Naval Command Station, that's what it's called.  I kept forgetting what it was called.  Built a ton of them, wasn't quite sure what they did.  :D  Now I know that's why some of my planets were defending themselves.
