Reply to What would a ballanced fleet look like (according to you)? in Strategy Sins Forums

Technically, a balanced fleet is where all combat ships take up the same amount of fleet capacity (i.e., 2 LRFs= 1 HC); this doesn't apply to support cruisers. However, in the real world, a balanced fleet is composed of counters to what the other player brings to the table. There is also the discusion of early, mid, and late game. In the late game, LRFs have much less of a purpose than they did early game because of their faility compared with HCs. LRFs do jack against

Well I guess I am glad you posted here, because it seems my knowledge of the UNmodded game helped out the modders. Good luck to you.

My point was, is this is mod problem or a game problem? You are talking about the mod, but I don't know about the OP. Don't take it personally.

Reply to Value of RA in Strategy Sins Forums

[quote](I think the old RA would give you unlimited fleet, despite what fleet level you had researched).[/quote] No, with the old RA, you had to still research fleet supply as well. It was amusing to look at the stats graph at the end of the game and you could immediately see who rushed RA. Basically, the guy wouldn't tech fleet supply until RA was up. From then on, it was an exponetial curve for fleet supply all the way up to max. Also, I would point out tha

Um...No. In v1.12, the charged missles auto-cast was fixed and for the FIRST TIME EVER it actually works. Let me repeat, IT WORKS NOW. Previous to v1.12, it was broken.

I wouldn't spend the extra money. The 6000+ has more clocks with lower heat. When the newer Phenoms come out and drop in price, then upgrade - to quad core. EDIT: BTW, TomsHardware did a review of the 7750 and if you notice, the 6000+ outperforms it in gaming. Here's the review: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/athlon-x2-phenom,2104.html Here's the Gaming Benchmarks:

I know you said you aren't a computer genius, but building your own computer is actually very easy. This game requires so little, the computer could cost less than $400, however, i don't know if you are including a monitor in this. Anyway, here is a cut as what you could get. I made it an AMD system as you can go cheap now, and you can upgrade to a better processor/ram later. The processor and video card I am recommending is better than I have now, and Sins runs great

This is a retarded post. Anyone can UNPAUSE the game. And your settings should be have limited it to 10 pauses anyway. Moral of the story, you're spreading rumors about players that probably aren't true.

Reply to Help Against Carriers in Strategy Sins Forums

Can I just stop all the complaining? One, all-carrier fleets are beatable. Second, Blair has stated that they are going to either increase the speed of the LFs and/or increase the damage % against carriers or slow down the carriers. So to those who don't know how to use LFs, it will be even more apparent in the next version.

Reply to Help Against Carriers in Strategy Sins Forums

[quote]Only one thing u can do, more carriers. Anyone telling you to build soemthing else fails at seeing the obvious. Yes light frigates can kill carriers, yes flak can kill strike craft, but that's all those ships can do. Carriers can kill almost everything else. So you can either have a fleet that is useless at anything but 1 thing, or you can have a fleet that can multitask.[/quote] Ignore this advice. Killing the carrier works and having flak means the carrier fleet will be

An all carrier fleet is EASILY countered.
