Oppinion Wanted - Tereanan Vessel Stats

posted on May 25th, 2011, 5:27 pm

The total damage done is about the same as the Federation with the exception of Chroniton pulses (deals almost no damage).  It's more of where that damage is going to go.  Chroniton torpedoes deal their damage directly to the hull.  Temporal disruptors are easily blocked by shields.  Chroniton pulses deal their damage directly to the hull (what damage) and have a chance at disabling random subsystems if they're fired in massive volleys.

Tereanan ships take the following amount of resources relative to Federation ships.
~4 Times More Tritanium
~1/9th The Dilithium
>25% More Supply
>15% More Time

Overall, Tereanan ships take more time to build than any other faction that is at the same techtree level.

PS:  Tereanan ships use "TSS" instead of USS."

But "T.S.S. Mal IS AWESOME" just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Well, I have thought of using some of the community member names as vessel names.  Of course, I won't do that without permission from the member in question.

Actually, I think calling a class of ships Inferior is great.  Stick with the theme in naming all of the ships (Inept, Incompetent, Inpotent) just for the comic factor.  I'll build a bunch of them just to see the names roll out    Give the ship class a passive ability "misinformation," then make it a fully capable opponent.

Then, let the jeering begin - "I just killed your battleship with TSS Irrelevant!"

Thanks for the suggestions.  I think I'll use them in the ship name list.  They are very funny.

I already added those names to the list.

Everything doesn't have to be serious all the time.  It's entirely possible to make fun of the game while modding it and still enjoy it.  Maybe part of the description for that class of ship is that it's punishment detail for misbehavior...

Yeah, nothing wrong with a less serious name. I added SFDebris nickname for the Defiant to my game.

I agree. You wouldn't want to know my nickname for the Premonition...
