Lol i use these tips for some online and i did ok but later they killed me Lol (i tired to save my team mates)

The strategies to use online are very very very different from the strategies to use against the AI.

i agree much different i did look at some replays and i see what the others have been doing

TEC is stronger early-game, Advent is stronger late-game.  In singleplayer, you can be successful with either.



This is true in multiplayer, but in singleplayer you shouldn't have any problems with Advent.  The AI doesn't build enough LRF-type units to prey on Advent's early-game weaknesses.  Just play defensively if you need to and get out your better unit types.

For frigate-based fleets as Advent, focus on the Progenitor Mothership and Halcyon Carrier capital ships, combined with the Iconus Guardian support cruiser.  The Iconus Guardian is capable of absorbing incoming damage, protecting friendly units.  Use the Progenitor with its shield restore ability to keep your Iconus Guardians healthy.  With two Progenitors constantly rotating shield restore and a few guardians on defense duty Advent fleets can be nearly impervious to regular weapons.  The Halcyon can push away enemy strike craft while boosting your frigate attack rate.

For a carrier-based fleet, the Rapture Battlecruiser with its concentration aura is an invaluable boost.  Use the Iconus Guardian with its repulsion ability to push away enemy units and keep your carriers safe. The Halcyon carrier remains a great choice for swatting away enemy fighters and protecting your bombers, and it's a competitive carrier in its own right if specced with Adept Drone Anima.



Early-game if you have your heart set on carriers, go with the carrier capital ships.  They're much tougher and faster than regular carriers, and although you get fewer squads this extra longevity will pay off in the long-run.  Always back them up with frigates.

Later on, you can pursue mass carrier strategies.  Those are quite effective against the AI and I personally believe that if you can reach 100 squads of bombers the AI is utterly incapable of beating you save by sheer luck.  It's simply too disorganized to beat such a deadly fleet, and unless all its units are positioned perfectly with the right combos in play (it can happen by chance, but it's rare) it won't stand a chance.

wish there is an economic victory.like civ IV-right now i hold all the planets except 1 enemy capital planet-that im blasting with the kostura i divided my fleet 1 for border patrol and the other half if it my enemies spawn when my kostura fires-its a pretty nice game- kinda like supcom but better.

Would be nice sometimes.

technically you wont have that much ships without a very good stable income right -they should put an economic victory option because all roads here is about who has more fleet capability i got my enemy ai pinned down to 1 planet the homeworld- i didnt make that much cap ships just to get blown up by starbase granted i still win because i have a secondary wave but i want me an economic victory or at least a mod for it. civ style but on space what u guys think i know im new but would be nice other than clash of ships option

i have a maxed out level 10 colony cap ship for vasari that nice drain a planet resources to add to you own is sweet wish it works on orbital platforms-lol.
