Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations

well i made my first armada 1 conversion.  fedhell.  i'll upload a picture and dl in a few days.  srry :blush: .  by the way i had to fill it with turrets.  the ai kept sending out ships to attack us.  pluss theres my favorite ship derilict! every1 gets 1 :D  
ok i ran into a prob-  the feds in mid build.  you can keep that version or i fixed it so you can re dl :D i wont re upload till monday so srry.  but its an easy fix- just open map editor, ctrl+r, go to team 5 choose empty :D  

Here is my Next map called Pen.  you might remember it from A1 :lol:  :lol:  BEWARE!!!!!!! there a hidden enemy on map- strike fast!

Ok so im thinking of making a chess map.  well basicaly you get asteroid field making squares 8x8 = 64 squares and 16 ships each.  wormholes connect them.  let me know what you think

King=SB?
Queen=prem/sovx1
Knight=excelsior/defiantx2
Bishop=Arikax2
Castle=galaxyx2
Pawns=saber/intrepidx8

Maybe make pawns Sabers.

Good idea!

this would be cool.

Thank you i will make it.

I will make a series
all races against all other(except for norxter :unsure: )

how about nebula class for queen?

I thought about it but the queen is supposed to be able to take anysquare so she ad to be all powerfull

thats a good idea! keep the fog n shroud off and it can be a proper game of chess with each ship moving 1 by 1 in turn. mind u, cloak a fleet of rommie sheeps and kill the queen!

I never thought of playing it like that

Any peice can take any peice in chess, it's all about the positions adama, but yes, the queen would need to be a powerful ship like the premoniton or the sovvy to be able to take down anything :P however one pawn can't take out the queen like it could in regular chess hehe ;)

you are correct but im not doing it like that.  im doing it by movement.  you might consider it a relative thing.  the more spaces an the board it can move the more powerfull it should be.  EXAMPLE:since the pawn can only move forward and attack diagonal it is going to be a very week ship-such as the saber

could work. look forward to it

im off to make it

while ur there make a massive 8 player map for me!! and i mean massive! so it takes about 10 mins to get to the other side lol

OK itys made but it dont work.  it doesnt have like a map unit option so all i keep getting is a SB!  HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :cry:  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:  

dont ask me my map editor doesnt even work!

ANYONE!?

just played a long game on ur fedhell map. it rocks man!  :shifty:  B)  

gee, thanks- how long didi it tKE 2break through and HOW DID YOU DO IT?
 did you like the fact that the feds build?

here's a screenshot of the end of my first game on the map, looking at the amount of ships and resources u can tell it was a long game lol

instead of wasting loads of ships initially by sendin em in i had about 5 steamrunners taking out some turrets from my side of the asteroids since they got long range weapons, it helped, once i cleared enuf room i sneaked a construction ship in and built a station which took out the surroundin turrets in range lol and just built and destroyed as i went along. the enemy on the other side wasnt building that many ships as i was so i managed to wipe em out with a few fleets quickly whilst capturing an assembler off course. then i bided me time, built a transwarp conduit and loads of fleets and wiped the next enemy out..with style! :lol: tis a good map for a fun game. next time i'm thinking of having unlimted resources, playing as romulans and put hundreds of cloaked ships in with the feds then decloaking em all and see what happens :lol:

edit - second game was longer with twice as many ships. btw i never noticed the feds building  :huh:  pretty sure they never even replaced a turret..the contruction ships were hardly moving..i kept an eye on em and on the borg fight with the fed with my cloaked tavera  ^_^  nice map item!!  

thnks- when i tested i used steames AND lots of those little sabres since they have long range phasers and cheep and dont cost me credits.  if iom roms i use phaser refits multi targeting disruptor.  if imborg i use utrinum burts with a whole fleet of ships

sweet, i'll play klingons next and use that ion storm thing! shame u can't cloak that class

that would be extremely unbalanced! but very cool!  ifyou like this one yule like my pen 2

OK heres my next map- you get inf resources- my recomendation is that you use klingon beause one of thier ships cant be targeted by shield removing torps hint hint :omg:  :omg:  :omg:  :omg:  :omg:  :omg:  :omg:  

either borg or breen on the map

i put just for the heck of it like 100 decents vs 50 borg fusion cubes and there were like 25 cubes left after the battle

OK the next map-Galactica
if you look at the names of the derilict stations you will see some good names lol
Kobol this is for you and me.  cheers! :D  

BTW the chess map?
couldn't get it to work because of map units.
there are none in fleetops

Frodo, you took the time to CAPTURE all those fed ships?! with the borg? what a waste of crew :lol:

Edit: said it backwards :P said he captured borg ships making it sound like he was the feds :omg:

try galactica kobol.  it think youle like it, 1vs1 is pretty good because the comps dont steal every thing.  And look at the names of the derilict stations!

nooo kobol u great anal dwelling nun lover! i capture a single borg assembler as soon as i broke thru that turret barricade, and built a whole new borg army with a single borg assembler! der! it was a long game and the other AI hard was busy with the turrets on the other side so i had time to set up camp where the previous AI hard was aka the borg who's assembler i captured! :D notice the transwarp portal in the pic? on the right side - had time to build a transwarp conduit but had to destroy my descents and steamrunners cos i made fusion cubes and command cubes

"Anal Dwelling Nun Lover" rofl :lol:

Oh, I see...nice stratagy...

:lol:
the first time i played the map and saw my ships turning on an assembler it was quick thinkin and reflexes to get crew beamed over b4 it was destroyed lol give the map a go its ****** cool fair dooz

I like to steal other cons then fall back and let them rebuild just for the fun of it.  feds realy are the best at managing credits.  i hate it when i look up as borg and see-9/10 credits gone
BTW the v3 will have a 20 credit option

AND NOW!
THE NEWEST V3 MAP!
UNLIMITED/NOLIMIT
plz thought?
(use inf resources)

my second-fort wars
very fun.
the middle is easier to kill than you think

Awesome.  I'm almost tempted to dig time out of my (busy) scheduale to actually play a computer game.  :D

want to play now?

Heh, sorry man.  Schedule sucks.  Busy through Monday.

well im releasing my next map.  a remake of pen.  the only trouble is i don't know how to have an empty research tech.  can anyone help me?

ok well.  I had intended to make the ai in the center research cloak detect so that romulans could not just fly right through but oh well
SO without further delay...
wait for it
PEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
