I have been playing battleships forever for a month or two now and i want to open up a shipyard. i specialise mainly in big ships and stations. As a celebration of my opening, my new basestar will be unvieled:

The idea of this is that the station can survive hours under heavy assault until reinforcements arrive. It was the first station deployed by my race and was originally a research station but due to increased hostility, developed into a military base. It is meant to be a staging point for massive assaults. The station cannot move but instead teleports into position.

The weapons only have increased range, thats why there is loads of them

your picture link is broken.

EDIT:

Spoke too soon.

I'll edit in some comments in a bit.

It looks over powered, and you've stretched some parts a lot. (ie Too Much) Pick a color scheme, diversify the weapons, and then i'll call it awesome.

i will start changing the colour now and it will be done in 5 years

oh and its intended to be a station not a battleship therefore its intended to be overpowered in its own defense

The problem is it looks totally unapproachable with that much weaponry.

EDIT 2:
All of the weapons are standard btw apart from increased range. Not many defenses either

I sent a task force after it. The battle was going badly for my fleet and then . . .

. . . my computer choked.

I'm lost, did I miss something some time ago?

Needs some companion ships in my opinion.

Wait, what happened?

First it seemed like the thread got deleted, because I couldn't refresh it . . . then it worked, but the latest comments were missing . . . including a fair bit of critique. If the conversaton was being deleted, what happened to the rest of it? Ah well, I'll just repost that.

Anyway:
----------------

I think the station is pretty good, and works fairly well, but it is is a little excessive on the weapons. I suggest moving the weapons back into the structure and replacing large quantities of weapons with a few high-damage/burst weapons, then replace the over-stretched sections with a group of small parts. Lastly, I note that the pylons near the corners, the ones made of two triangles put together, are not mirrored properly. They all look exactly the same and are going the same direction, not flipped like they should. I hope that made sense . . .

----------------
Lastly, "lord destroyer", if you hired a lawyer over this forum, you need to get off the computer for a while. And you can't hire a lawyer when you are a minor.

I noticed quite a bit of stuff went also. Nvm.

feel free to do that weapons replacement if you like but i am moving on to my next station. This will be a more defensive station with no overstrtched parts. may be overshielded but means no masses of weapons

Right so here it is, the SALASTAR. I don't believe it is overpowered considering it is a station. Comments as usual please. Might post a story later if you want one.

The space station mounts too much offensive weaponry to be considered for "defence". Its like using a wooden sword with an adamantium deflector shield with spikes and a gun built in.
