Indeed. If the defenses suck, it'll simply be more effective to run a garrison force. They can even chase down any enemies who flee.

Agreed. They should be about twice as good.

What does everyone think about requiring players to build a space station in a system in order to 'claim' it?

That sounds like a great idea.

This is edging more and more into the direction of EAW...good.

Hey, can you give me alpha centauri, or, if no one minds, sol? My race is basically a group of crazy envangelists who split off from/took over earth. I'll post them once I finish them.

Maybe were getting too complicated, but what the hell. Maybe if you invade a players home system you do a ground battle to invade? I've got a lot of ground assault stuff collectiong dust.

If we need a station to claim a system, battles are easy: destroying their stations stops them from owning the system, and destroying their fleet lets you build your own there.

Could someone post an example fleet, of how ships should be, along with total DPS?

I have a fleet made up already, is it okay is I have sol? or if someone else gets it then just give me some random blue star.

Ya, to repeat my post made a day ago and ignored,

, and seeing as you just need a blue star while I need sol or a system close to it, would you mind unduly if you were to not get sol?

Any one think random pirate encounters would be good?

How do you calculate DPS?

This seems to have gotten lost in the jumble.

No. How would they be random?
