I understand what Frogboy is saying but there have been good ideas given there doesnt need to be an additional Fleet bonus given. I also think the limiting the size of fleets to say 4 or whatnot is a good idea and will hopefully be easy enough for the AI to implement. I do hope some more thought on this can be given instead of just "NO" since it seems this is what some people are interested in. Perhaps as an option that can be turned on or off like the differing levels of AI can be implemente

Now that it seems that making new ships is moddable perhaps a modder will e able to draw up some Star Wars Ships
I really have to agree with you on this point. Last night I was in a battle with the Yor and I had a frigate while they had a stack of like 10 corvettes and they just kept suiciding each one into me as I wiped them out 1 by 1. I think if they hit me with all 10 at once they would have won. Plus it would be great if you could make fleets with fighters and frigates and such using combined arms methods but I think that may be getting to advanced for what they wanted. But it does state in the ma
Question: When you have Battleaxes or anyother combat ship in orbit does that add/help the defense of the planet if attacked or does the ship have to be out in space and manually told to attack? Also I remember reading something about ships that were stacked together in fleets if they attack it was bugged or something, has this been fixed or was it a hoax?
Anyone got some screenshot of these ships and can anyone post a ss of them ingame?
How do you get the factory starbases
Yeah if there is a way to put them in game that'd be great
Yeah I get the realism bit but I kinda ignored it since we are dealing with a game that involves outer space aliens and such...lol Anyway what is the typical average on build times or is there a better way to maximize construction/build times thats what I am looking for
Hey group just have some questions about maufacturing ships or social products it takes me forever to build anything. For earth it may take like 16-20 months to build a constructor and on other worlds it takes 50 months. I thought this was attributed to population but I am not quite so sure it has that big of an effect, also thought some attributed to morale but I am usually in the 70-80% range. I have build Manufacturing centers and the linke but after my initial colony rush (where I max mil
Can always use the ships that were used in Rebellion like the Bulwark class that was made to rival a SSD. Also if you use ships from the extended universe (im not extremly familiar but am going off of the X-Wing series, and a couple other series books) that there are alot of New Republic type forces out there. The site that I posted before which was a mod for Homeworld used all kinds of ships so it can be done
Lets see if there are enough people interested to get together and form some kind of mod team to push this idea forward, I think this is gonna be great
Actually you may want to try this site it is a mod for Homeworld and there stuff is top notch, not sure if you can use it though (http://swnr.themaw.net/) Also I remember seeing a page for Civ III graphics or sprites for Star Wars units that may be usable. But this would be a real sweet idea and even though I don't know anything about modding or drawing things I am willing to help either with Ideas or whatnot.
Ok as with alot of games that are moddable I guess I will be the first to ask is anyone going to be working on a Star Wars Mod. Like redoing the ships to be Star Destroyers and such and making the races with a Galactic Empire or New Republic background
Thanks Asharak I actually just wound up stumbling across that by accident, I was getting a little frustrated just dont want to get burned like I did with MOO3 if you know what I mean
Ok this game is giving me fits. I have sent my colony ship to empty planets and it gives me the choice of renaming the sytem all those planets belong too, but after that nothing. No population no symbol stating I took it over, Next thing I know I have the Altereans (sp? the other human like race, I dont remember since I renamed them) and they have placed there symbol over the planets. WTH is up I send my colony ship and I get to rename the pllanet that they wind up taking over in the near fut
Hey guys I know this question is probably stupid but how do you rename your ships that you build. I couldnt find it in the manual but I just know you can do it can you give me a little hand here, Thanks
