[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="12" id="3374623"]Play nice, its not that easy to figure out unless you play Vasari Rebels yourself and use the titan. It does seem kind of self defeating to retreat your frigate fleet of doom so you can kill one ship. But that's why its so fun, ever game needs a few troll ships like that. [/quote] If one check from what that titan gains his repairs, he can figure out, maybe it is more difficult to realize for others, dunno. &nbsp

[quote who="GeomanNL" reply="9" id="3374484"] I think it was a Vesari one. That Titan was simply impossible to destroy once it activated its drain ability[/quote] It is very easy to figure out that this ability affects small ships, and if you remove those from it's vicinity, that ship will have no food to repair itself from. Not rocket science.

I never understood WHY? On random maps is phase lane length set to be extreme random? But I never see the positive anomalies.. Only these non-existent phase lanes between planets that should be connected, and happend way too often than it should.. btw, extreme bad luck
