By creating a computer program that would select random squares.

Ohh... I didn't think of that.

Very well then, carry on.

Anyone want to volunteer for Pirate ship making duty.

Edit: Just had a idea. How about everyone submits one pirate ship that is a mix of there design style and scrap?

Huh? It's become a roleplay now?

anyhow;

The Vilushan Imperial Navy so far

2 Pope class dreadnoughts (battleship classification)
6 Bishop class destroyers

That should give 'em twenty points worth of ships.

The Colonies battlefleet currently consits of 10 Galactica class Battlestars (destroyer class), the fleet is nicknamed the stars of Kobol.

I have a question/suggestion, will uninhabited planets (either some of them or all of them) have small neutral-hostile fleets that stay in the system, and have to be destroyed before you can colonize the planet (think Sins of a Solar Empire)?

On a different note, I claim the planet known as Sol (or, if anyone really needs it, somewhere close to Sol) for the Aziraphalie fleet. Note that this is the third time I've asked this, so please stop accidentally (I hope) ignoring me.

Sorry about that. My internet has been awful glitchy lately. I'm posting this from a shop with Wi-Fi, actually, as I trust it more than the terrible connection I've been getting at home. Good thing is, though, that I found the problem - one of my cats decided WIRES IS TASTY.

I'll get replacements for those by the end of the week.

Wait, so when does this start? Like, do i have time to work on ships and then join in still? i don't wish to read 8 pages.

I would still like someone to post a set of ships which are considered "balanced".

Else, I will work it out by DPS of equivalent "power level". (ie. total DPS of 12 Cronus' for flagships). Because the Cronuscount is a stupid idea.

As I've said, I'm using my old VA fleet. You can download it from the database...VA.rar methinks

Anarki · Post by **Anarki** » Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:07 pm

The only fleet I could find is a sb2 fleet.

Is it VANavy.rar?

If it is, then WHAT THE HECK, THAT IS RIGGED BEYOND BELIEF.

Agreed. Even a quick glance over them shows that they're an order of magnitude more powerful than what we're looking for. I only have one example ship prepared, but it's better than nothing.

Download the Horus

It's a frigate, balanced against a Hestia. In AI versus AI runs, it wins fifty percent of the time. I tested it by simply throwing four or five of each at a time toward each other. When the Horus is Enemy AI (the stronger of the two), it always won. When the Horus was Ally AI, it always lost.[/url]

Pretty much answers the question.

- one of my cats decided WIRES IS TASTY

I can just imagine that...

*Cat's thoughts*
Hmmm, what is this red thing???
I wonder if its food.
*Crunch*
Hmm, tastes good!
*Om nom nom nom*
