Few quick questions

Replays and turrents

from Sins Forums
Just two quick questions...

1) How do I see replays from games I just played? I found "Watch game" in the single player, but it doesn't list any games. I want to be able to view the multiplayer games and see what my enemy was doing.

2) What does good damage against turrents/buildings? I've wanted to raid planets and blow up buildings right quick and phase away, but I don't know what to use against them. I know the seige ships can bomb planets, but can they comb extractors/turrents as well? Or is the best thing to do to just use the long range ships that out-range the turrents and hope they do enough damage before the fleet comes? I prefer to play as the Vasari and I know they have a capital ship that can do increased damage to buildings with a passive ability, but I prefer to use the large one with the Grav Bomb.

You have to save a game as a replay in order to be able to view it later.

For damaging structures, structures have "very heavy" armor, so best are heavy cruisers, followed by capital ships and bombers. Check out this thread for more detail on what counters what:

Ah, of course, I wasn't thinking about bombers. I just set the carriers to build fighters to hit the long range ships(it says they are good against them.)

I have a third question:

3) The Vasari capital ship "Autorak MArauder" has a ability called "Subversion" which makes a planet build slower. Does it also provide line of sight in the area even after the ship leaves? It seems to be that considering how fast things build already, that slowing that rate by 15% or so is not going to be much of an impact.

And, while I'm at it...

4) The Serevan Overseer has something that supposidly makes armor better, but is that only for one ship? If it only makes one ship have 250 more hull points, the enemy can just hit another ship untill it runs out. Or does it have enough anti-matter to put that up on a lot of ships?

And to save a replay, do I just go to save the game normally and it will be there? What about autosaves?
