deoends on the race for example klingon Produce 6 Bops from start as fast as possible and use them to harass the enemy while gathering and building with cloak they come in useful just keep killing the mining ship and running Cavalry runs  with feds its different alot more defensive and turrets and with romulans alot more about stealth and gathering resources not letting them know where i am borg ah the borg i used to love playing as them until one day i realised how under powered they are and the romulans have that bug in one of those multi ships the ones that have all the varients * havent played in a while * the frigate one had a weapon that did more damage than it was supposed to any way borg just build assimilators and just hope to defend long enough for cubes and transwarp then its fun |

no they are underpowered its a fact even if u play well
for example i used to be a great borg player could beat any ammount of Hard AI's
but in MP romulans could beat me because of the fact they cost too much and dont do as much damage as they should
we had this discussion months ago possibly a year ago

Usually playing rom I'll make up 3 – 5 more scouts, cloak them and send them out to explore. I'll also have a cloaked warparty of 3 Rhienns and a pair of Leahvals. If playing against the AI I use them to kill any explorers before they see my base. I'm especially interested in how fast the enemy team expands their resource gathering compared to my own, and resources it would be hard for them to get to. If I'm playing against... really anything but the Klingons I'll send a suicide task force to take out their tech structures as soon as I build my first Warbird yard. In the time it takes them to rebuild I'll already have an attack fleet ready to go. If they are the Klingons, or sometimes the Borg depending on how advanced they are I'll wait until I can take a large force to their mining operations and knock them down one by one until I get to the main base.

I prefer to castle. Strong but not "Hitler's Atlantic Wall" defenses that are the max I can support while still building up a good offensive force. I believe I've discussed how I do offensives before...

The thing is that it is so much esier to just build turrets and they look so nice and neet and intimidating.
I favor big, strong, defence(which is probably why i suck)
the only real power they have is intimidation
the enemy can just attack the objective without even bothering with the turrets.
the best defence is a good offence. build lots of ships!

I try for a Balanced Fleet that is moderatly powerful, but used defensivly.
My Method to keep things easy is:
Fleet 1: Warships
Fleet 2: Warships
Fleet 3: Warships
Fleet 4: Warships
Fleet 5: Repair Ships (Captured Warships if Repair Ships are not available)
Fleet 6: Fleet Flagship
Fleet 7: Vessels that are derelict and cannot be salvaged
Fleet 8: All Mining Freighters
Fleet 9: 16 Venture Class
Fleet 0: All Construction Ships
Send Fleet 9 on a constant Explore Task for scout the map, Fleets 8 & 0 should be obvious. If a Vessel falls derelict and cannot be salvaged for some reason it gets stuck in Fleet 7 and forgotten. Fleet 4 is left to guard the Base, Fleet 3 is also used to help protect my allies base. When I go to attack the Enemy, I send Fleets 1,2,3,5 and 6 in for and attack at the same time from different Angles and get Fleet 1 to destroy the Starbase and the Rest of the Fleets to go for the Turrets and Shipyards, then leave the rest of the ships to choose their own targets while commanding only the Flagship (Fleet 6). All System upgrades are usually done before attacking.
I also make good use of any type of Turret in key locations, such as anywhere in the base that is a distance from the Starbase or constant Ship Cover, Mainly Mining Stations.

I always play as Feds and I'm always defensive till my allies go in and start attacking then I slowly cut off my enemie's supplies and corner him to one spot then I send in a fleet to clean them up. Never played online so not sure how it would work but having 200 turrents plus 50 ships does help defend my base hehe.

to be honest online no turret would ever work vs any of us online they just die too quick
Bops rip them to shreds in mins and cost less
