lucienskywalker Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 (edited) Lets talk about big ships . The nebulon frigate is ok , its good for beating accclamator .The mon cal cruiser is ok , its good for everything . But in the rebel forces , the Assault frigate is good for what?It cant match victory star destroyer , and honestly after playing with it a lot , i really wonder what this ship is good for . I dont want to say the game is unbalanced , because everybody say it is not , and im not sure myself .But when your base is at number 4 , you cant do anything againts victory star cruser . But anyway , my main question is :What the Rebel Assault frigate is good for? Edited February 19, 2006 by lucienskywalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucienskywalker Posted February 19, 2006 Author Share Posted February 19, 2006 victory star destroyers ... I just edited my post , i meant victory star destroyers , not imperal star destroyer .--------- Im sorry but the Assault frigate cant do anything againts the victory star destroyers .I even wonder if 2 for 1 is enought ... In the manual , they say to use the frigate for acclamator or marauder .When the empire is at level 4 , let me tell you the acclamator are rare .And the marauder? This ship is easy to kill with a nebulon . Maybe the price and the construc time is better for the frigate compare to the victory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockMeSane Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Assault Frigates are a bit cheaper than VSDs. In general though,they are only weaker by nature of not having fighters. Assault Frigates have significantly more firepower than Nebulon-Bs, which only have 1 Turbolaser. Assault Frigates are basically necessary against VSDs and Level 3+ Starbases until you get Mon Cals. Even then, you will be producing Mon Cals from a small number of worlds, so Assault Frigates are not completely worthless. I actually kind of like the ships, their shield boost makes them fairly difficult to kill if you time it well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bromma_Herman Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I often use theese ships to protect my corvettes with about 4 corvettes per assault frigate. They are also useful as flanking vessels to the Calamari Crusiers and as enforcer vessels to spearhead a figter attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are not as strong as victory but they are faster . They can easely withdraw or flank . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
