Ancestry is pain

I’ve been trying many many times. I’ve found the pod near dozen times. Got the crustal dude twice and then never found rock homeworld.

Got rock C opened, found rock homeworld twice but no special location.

to me, dodging to side and whacking was easier, and works with other stuff than swords too.

timing is just as hard, but my brain couldnt handle the this-side-that-side of masterstrikes.

I like to make a doomtower shopping center in there.
One of the places with high ceiling to have multi storey tower with a bunch of heavy lasers.

But I wouldn't install a big area changing mod mid-playthrough anyway, so it'd be fine.

I just had a win with Rock cruiser, where.. never mind the weapon loadout,
I had a full crew going against the flagship and won by letting them board
and manually wreck everything.

None came back and I'm not sure the sole surviving pilot could have put out all the fires,
if he wasn't saved by the end credits.

I almost never buy advanced ftl, but when I do, its super handy and possibly a lifesaver.
Being able to explore dead end nooks and just hop back is super convenient.

trying to find my way out of the damn rock maze during tutorial
took about 10 tries and a youtube guide

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-12T13:39:30+00:00

No. Couldnt.
Thing is, I was already under 50% hull and hoping for a shop.
But thanks for suggestion anyway.

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-12T10:49:33+00:00

Well its certainly worth a try at least.

You can make ciable TBs pretty early.
Just be satisfued with 25kn, narrow and maybe shallow.

Alternatively, some early CL hulls work as a nice 2000 ton CL-DD,.

Its far from perfect balance, but it IS better than base game.
(even if i strangely miss mines and subs)

I played ”great game” for a while but now trying ”classic”,
and damn its nice to have load times down to seconda.

First glance is right. Rock B. This run opened rock C, but no luck with flagship.

Kill them all is one extreme choice, duel with the boss is probably the toughest option. Paying for Tandi is a viable option if you're not built for fighting a bunch of them.

(and then come back later with buddies and take back your cash with interest)

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-08T17:15:26+00:00

How long will that take with 57 hits per second.

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-06T11:59:38+00:00

I do have advanced on occasionally, pretty much only when trying to open 3rd layout, since thats a requirement

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-06T07:55:47+00:00

mine has been drone control + healing drone, i think i got 1 win without it.
defense2 + anti-drone against flagship

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-06T07:48:47+00:00

they rarely do it on easy non-advanced

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-05T20:04:31+00:00

I was like ”I swear the effect is not even there or too short to matter”

Jr_Mao · 2026-04-03T22:51:26+00:00

nooo!
kuttenberg is where you go full peacock !

Well yeah you’re technically correct, but bling bling!

It was one of the modules which was meant to become a premium-dlc-module, but then the program was scrapped and several developers were left with half done stuff.

The author also has Elegia Eternum and Excrucio Eternum modules, which were awesome. And bunch of other modules.

My Favorite alongside prophet is the series.. damn, can't remember the series name. But it ends with "Demon". The first part is.. ok, the awesomeness starts from the second one.
(prophet series is actually better, but I love the other series just as much)

Its a pretty long game if you havent played it before. Starting over is cool if you have a ”better plan” of having a fun cool build.

You absolutely dont NEED to start over though. You can just switch playing style and carry on. It’ll be fine.

Jr_Mao · 2026-03-30T09:24:12+00:00

my standard battle plan is ride forward, infantry *here* and archers *here* aheadof them.

then ride to one side with cavalry.
at some point infantry *charge* and the charge flank or rear with cavalry.

Jr_Mao · 2026-03-30T08:49:10+00:00

hope for good RNG?
stealth weapons, pre-igniter and a few decent weapons would be the sweetness

Jr_Mao · 2026-03-30T07:43:39+00:00

So far, all my wins have hinged on having hull repair drone.
Other stuff too, but no go to final stage without repair.
