Hi I'm new here but I also found the EotH to be quite powerful. I'm not willing to admit that they're overall OP but after a few encounters with them I found that they are a real challenge to defeat mostly because of they're superior starfighters (which caught me completely by surprise) an their tough-as-nails Phalanx Destroyers. Are their fighters really that superior to NR fighters because my fighters where cut to shreds which was quite shocking to me cuz I thought NR fighters were some of the best in the galaxy. I don't know the stats of the units so I'm making this suggestion based on my observations but maybe just to make gameplay a little more balance you could reduce the number of fighters that EotH carriers carry cuz right now they hit hard and fast, PLUS they swarm like bees which is a little too much IMO.
Regardless of whether you take my suggestions can you tell me how best to deal with EotH fighters. I found that the K-wing seem to fare very well against them despite their bomber role (a pleasant surprise) but I can't produce them in my current era which is era 2 (I assume they can be built in era 3). So in their absence what is the best answer against them?
Also I find the hardpoints on some of the EotH cap ships to be really tough to take out especially the ones on the Phalanxes. They're definitely "harder" then IR ones. Is this intentional?
I'm playing AoW Lite on Medium difficulty and I have to commend you guys for making such an awesome mod. Very enjoyable indeed!
Looking forward to future updates.
