Dominion Dreadnaught availability/Dom lack of proper artille

posted on September 7th, 2010, 11:12 pm

I think the Dreadnought should build from a special yard, like this:

1. Large yard builds Advanced Construction Ship
2. Adv Con Ship builds special structure called "Krogoth Gantry"
3. Krogoth Gantry doesn't take all the resources of the dreadnought (now renamed to "Krogoth") all at once, instead it takes a steady stream of resources as it builds and will pause construction if you run out.
4. Construction ships and Adv Con Ships can assist in the production of the Krogoth, causing resources to pump into it faster.  The gantry should be setup so around 6-8 constructors max can assist in construction, at which point its build time is approximately 1/4 of normal.

What do you guys think?

interesting but too much complex.....  like I said,make its creation crazy as you want,I dont care,just make it avaliable without mixed tech

fleet ops is much better than vanilla A2 except FO have much more bugs and unbalanced problems.

dob, you slay me.

FO is better, but more unbalanced and bugged? Isn't that a bit contradictory?

Not if you only care about graphics.

Mind you, I personally think that FO's only real weakness right now is the campaign thing.  But that'll get solved anyway, so it's no big deal.

Who here likes original armada II more than FO? nobody 
Who thinks that FO have less bugs? nobody ( if we count only people with atleast two and half neuron )


even with these problems I love FO

mixed-tech will get its redo along with the faction redos, which will also change some availability aspects to certain ships. however, high tech vessels like the dreadnought wont be moved to an earlier mixed-tech level and we wont move the dreadnought into baseline production. The Dominion is known for occupieng alien stuff and thats the FO aspect to underline this

i loved the krogoth

but in vanilla ta it was vulernable to spider stunning. which made it risky.

brawler/hawk spam usually worked too (when do they fail )

i never built the krogoth as i would rather have more useful stuff earlier. even the buzzsaw/vulcan were kinda pointless as u could win before the time needed to make them. or you would be 90% into making a krogoth then 5 phoenix would stomp your gantry lol

the arm from ta are kinda like feds, easy to play, and op. nearly all trek games have feds op.

Count me as at least one of those people with less than 2.5 neurons then . A2 had so many nasty bugs, some of which are still being fixed in A2 now. Most people didn't even recognize them so much as bugs, as just "features" they could abuse.

funnystuff is right, tavara requires pretty much every romulan building to be built first. thats a big outlay for romulans to do.

NO its not because as romulans you need to build most of them as all romulans strats needs refits or research so its not asking much to build them... in fact its essential.

you're wrong. u can finish the game without making talshiar, or you can finish the game with only talshiar.

in fact its hard for romulans to swtich between strats in the middle. for a romulan, making all the non special stations is not something u do early.

if u want generix u dont make upgrade facility.

if u want big d u dont need talshiar etc.

Don't...make...upgrade?  I offically rebuke the Generix strats then, as I refuse to abandon my upgrades.
