Canno Posted May 30, 2004 Posted May 30, 2004 Is it possable to destroy the death star without fighters? just useing alot of really powerfull warships? cuse when you go into rebed you see that the death star does have a hull strenth value and shields to and can it use the turbolassers that it has also?when I used the death star I didn't see it shoot anything but the big laser -"The major is a good man means well and works hard. Undortunatly, he would not be able to get a clue if he went out into a field full of horny clues during clue mating season , smeared his naked body with clue musk, and danced the ritual clue mating dance."- -"Now there's an image I'd really have preferred you'd kept to yourself."-
KiDmustanG728 Posted May 31, 2004 Author Posted May 31, 2004 I remember it saying somewhere that you can't destroy a DS unless you are using fighters.
ElvisMiggell Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 And increasing the lasers for anti-starfighter defence has no effect either, i checked. Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
AdmiralFishface Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 I'd really like to kill the DS through sabotage; that's the only cutscene I haven't seen so far. Heck, I'd even let the Rebels blow up my Death Star to see that cinematic, but they just don't attempt to do it (maybe that's because by the time I build the DS all the minor characters are DEAD and the others captured...) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v436/RiesstiuIV/Krempel/trapaure.gif
Mad78 Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 personnaly I have never lost a DS. But I am going to have a go at protectorat will playing the rebels and see if I can sabotage the AI's DS. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Mad78 Posted May 31, 2004 Posted May 31, 2004 Then you just bring in a load of SSDs and bomb the planet in front of whic it happend and bomb it to rubble http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
KiDmustanG728 Posted May 31, 2004 Author Posted May 31, 2004 Ah yes, the SSD. Recently I fought a battle where both sides had so many ships that I was able to fire off 2 laser shots from my DS before the 2 fleets began to engage each other.
ElvisMiggell Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 How big were the fleets? And how cheap had you made your ships?! Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 if that fleets were that big I guess the death star didn't even matter Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
KiDmustanG728 Posted June 1, 2004 Author Posted June 1, 2004 Hah well what I had done was severely cut the Rebel ship costs in the idea that they could present a challenge. And they would've actually presented a challenge had they built gravity well ships to prevent me from retreating. But they didn't so I was able to pick my battles = ( But in this particular battle, I had around 45 ISD II's, 3 SSD's,a DS and a few smaller craft like lancers and escort carriers. They had about 38 Dauntless' half that MC's, and a number of escort carriers and blockade runners. I'm not actually a fan of big fleets but in this case I had no choice. I had to eliminate this fleet of theres so I combined 3 of mine, hence the 3 SSD's; a command ship for each fleet. If you guys are looking for a challenge, this is the way to do it. Just cut the other side's ships costs to extreme low levels. In this game, the rebels had close to 600 Dauntless's patrolling around. At my prime, I had about 66 ISD II's. I also used one of Cain's Admirals Nightmare scenarios. The ones where the entire galaxy starts off Rebel.
ADarkJedi44 Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 How did you win against 600 Daultlesses?!?! Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel
KiDmustanG728 Posted June 1, 2004 Author Posted June 1, 2004 Well they didn't use CC-7700's so I was able to escape and choose my own fights. And haha also, they didnt have 600 ship fleets. Those ships were spread all around the galaxy. I wish they had included bulwarks though, and the gravity ships. Would've made winning A LOT harder.

ADarkJedi44 Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Geez they could have just split them up into groups of 5 with a few supports vessels and fighters then blockade every important world, sabotaging/bombarding it to dust Sweat saves blood-Erwin Rommel

Mad78 Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 I guess it wasn't all bad for the time it was designed. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
KiDmustanG728 Posted June 1, 2004 Author Posted June 1, 2004 It's almost impossible to lose a game. If you play as the Empire, the Rebellion never attacks Coruscant. I once started a game on hard and gave up all my planets except for Coruscant. It still took them 200 days or so to come to it and win.
Mad78 Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 They are very cautious. But have a very strange way of managing the fleets http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance

Mad78 Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 I guess that is a polite way of saying it http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Mad78 Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 The point is that they don't select their ships properly. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
