The Breen Energy Dampner says it disables systems of 'a hostile units'. 1 ship or 2?

the special? it only hits 1 ship as far as i know.

the rank bonus i think also only hits the ship its firing at.

Then 'units' is the typo, I guess.

Just because this is too amusing:

Not a stone was left standing: 99% of all models, graphics, sounds, scripts rewritten or replaced

The idiom should be:

Not a stone left unturned

Well, unless they are trying to say that they destroyed everything, in which case they used the right idiom.

Nope, it assumes that new players have previously played Armada 2.

What Dom said was better.

The idiom should be:

Not a stone left unturned

Yeah, I'm actually finding that a large proportion of new online Fleet Ops players have never had experience with A2 at all  .

remore precise volley tooltip mentions the remore not having enough torps to use effectively in battle. but the remore has a standard torpedo launcher, which is kinda effective.

i'd keep the remark and just only let the remore have torpedoes at officer or veteran.

That's more a balance change request than a typo catch.

at the moment its a typo since the remore gets its torpedo launcher when built, yet the tooltip disagrees.

The Remore's torpedo launcher fires 1/2 as frequently as its phaser and only fires in a forward arc. I'd say that's a significant decrease in effectiveness compared to almost all other Federation vessels . It's all technobabble opinion though - if Optec views it as less effective, it is, isn't it? Afterall, you don't know what the Remore would be like if it was had an effective cache of torpedoes
