Guys what do you think about Star Wars rebels ? ( is this right place to speak, even thou there is Star Wars section for these) I've only seen people complaining it that it looks Childish, Well IT IS TARGETED FOR YOUNG TEEN AND OLDER CHILDS ?! and i thnk it looks pretty cool
Black Sun would be interesting but how would you go about it? Memories of the OP zann consortium are still unfortunately vivid to me.
Would even like to see Zaarin for the Imps. Maybe Batch with his TIE phantoms?
I don't know if this has been suggested but, I think it would be cool if all the ships where scaled down just a bit. Also, I think It would be nice to have your fleet closer to your space station or defensive platforms when you are defending against an attack, as well as the opponents ships when you are attacking, and why are the ships so spread out, just wondering. I've had fleets that are so spread out when I am defending that by the time I regroup my fleet I lost half of my support ships.
Just a suggestion guys, I still really like this mod and I appreciate all the hard work you guys are putting into it.
Increasing the SSD cost so AI won't overspawn won't work, they have infinite creds.Is it infinite? I know they have 20k or so every week (on top of whatever their planets give them, ergo why they don't build mining facilities) but I don't think it's infinite - I've conquered all but one planet before and left a spy unit on it just to keep an eye on their production and it didn't look infinite.
I like the purpose and direction of the mod but I don't like the way it plays.
My major beef with the mod (and the vanilla game) is that I expected the ship combat to be more destructive and faster particularly with larger ships like SSDs and ISDs vs smaller ships-corvettes, frigates, and so on. The reason for that is larger ships have huge weapon arrays, shielding and hull. These small ships don't have those.
Why are the small ships taking massed barrages of heavy turbolaser fire from a huge capital ship before losing shields and becoming seriously damaged?
The visual strain of the mod crushes my PC and makes the space battles play slower and worse than vanilla, a problem that wouldn't be so bad if the damage tolerances of the ships were different.
Yes, you can destroy the four visible hardpoints, but Vics also have several hardpoints that are not destroyable and thus not visible. Try it in-game or check the unit/hardpoint files yourself if you wish.
I would also be interested in seeing the spread sheets.
As for firing arcs and mobility, I grant that they have to be considered a factor, but at least in the games I play against the AI, the tactics I prefer to use in space combat tend to make both of those into fairly minor concerns. I tend to drop a carrier into the lead in position, throw its fighter complement forward to reveal the enemy ships, and then I start hyping in my capital ships in a leap frog manner designed to change which of my ships is getting targeted so that my shields can regenerate as I bring more ships in. works pretty well with both the Imperial remnant, and also the EoTH since they both have ships with high shield that can be dropped for relatively low cost.
On a slightly separate note, assuming that ships wont change targets mid salvo for laser cannons either, and that the hard point numbers listed in the manual for the ships that don't have target-able hard points is accurate, doesn't that mean that the EoTH and the Remnant get screwed on anti fighter ships? granted I am again looking entirely out of the manual so I might be wrong, but both the New Republic and the Pentastar Alignment get anti fighter ships with 6 damage dealing hard points while the Remnant and EoTH equivilents only get 4 damage dealing hard points, which if I understand correctly means they can only shoot at 4 fighters per salvo while the NR and PA can hit 6.
As far as the anti fighter ships go, does EoTH have anything frigate sized or larger that can bea good anti fighter at all or is it the only faction that is pretty much limited to corvettes for fighter screening duties? its not much but the empire at least has the immobilizer (with the slow recharge rate for missiles I imagine the fare rather poorly as an anti fighter weapon, so I only looked at ships with laser and maser cannons rather than looking at my old favorite the VSDI).
