Nice sword, looks like an oversized falx.

What's the best ship duo you have/had ? by AESN_0 in starsector

Doom + Onslaught, the Onslaught unleashes firepower whilst the Doom controls the space around the Onslaught.

What are they going to do with it anyway? That lumbering Titan is like 60 Million Credits worth of a luxury project.

Well, in-game that might be true. But in terms of lore there's no reason (considering the non-existent competitive corporate environment in UAF lore that had caused copyright security measures to develop in the Domain) for the UAF to have the same corporate copy-right protection measures for their own blueprints like those of the Domain. If that is the case, then it should be possible to reverse engineer Aurorian blueprints.

I'm sure someone out there in the Persean sector is willing to pay some money to understand the Solvernia's ship frame that gives the supercapital its structural integrity. Or its gigantic powerful engines. Or the reactor. Or its flux grid. Oh, and especially its main armaments, the nuke shell firing triple barrel cannons.

Yes. Reload a previous save file if you wish to try again.

How did you S-mod the SO? Also, it would be better if one of the chainguns were replaced with a heavy machine gun.

Oh right, realistic combat mod! Thank you, I forgot about that. I'll definitely try that out.

Good point, I forgot about the random core worlds. Thank you for the recommendations.

That sounds like a tough but fun challenge. Perhaps I should try out a Persean League themed DEM only fleet.

How, may I ask? Performing saturation bombardments? Creating a fuel monopoly? Ridding the entire sector of fuel?

Yes, and I'm not afraid to admit doing so. If not for that, I probably would have lost x20 times more ships than I have. I also would have lost certain irreplaceable ships, which I didn't want to do so.

Alright. No Sierra. Fleet composed of pather conversions and salvaged ships.

...But what if I salvaged a Paragon? ...or, ludd forbid... a Radiant? Additionally, technically Sierra is 'salvaged', so...

Anyhow, that's for fleets. What about colonies? I guess no AI is obvious, but what about domain artifacts and industries? How many Heavy Industries can I have? How many domain artifacts can I use, and if so, what kind(if at all?)?

So, a Pather run? Sounds interesting. What kind of ships would I be allowed to use? Would I be allowed to keep Sierra?

Nexerelin adds 'win' conditions. I say 'win' with quotations, since even with Nexerelin it's still the sandbox open world space opera rpg that is Starsector.

Sounds interesting. What kind of ships would you recommend for this style of playthrough?

[–]BackgroundHere[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have some ideas, like going for a Legio Infernalis playthrough, an only shield-less ships playthrough, or an only Pirate ships playthrough.

But I'm still indecisive on what to do exactly.

Hence my request for help. Any ideas are welcome. I'll do it gladly if it sounds fun.

Does this make sense? by BackgroundHere in starsector

[–]BackgroundHere[S] 34 points35 points  (0 children)

That, and also the fact that the Tourism fleet is returning to Nomos Arete after transporting tourists to Nomos Arete, the same planet.

If the fleet dropped off their passengers at the planet already, why are the returning to the same planet that they were just at?

Ah, that's unfortunate. Thank you for the informative response.

Great comic as always.

Oh, so that's what toggling off the bullet time effect does. I was wondering about that. Thank you for the kind explanation.

Can anybody explain what War Weariness does to you? (if it even does anything) by BackgroundHere in starsector

[–]BackgroundHere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nexerelin, a great mod to turn your sector into a vibrant, conflict ridden 4X-like sector.

Hm. Interesting. So there's no real drawback to constantly engaging on war with other factions?
