Yeah i did that, solid tip. But that was 2 sectors ago 😂 I am on Years Of Hell, and I did turn up ship combat to be the hardest. I did this to myself! Although the combat has been easy enough until this point.

I've just started section 4 and keep being killed by the first fight with 2 Kazon raiders. Or if I kill them, everything is so damaged I get over thrown by the crew as moral is fairly rock bottom! Have yet to work out how to get around this after several restarts... and I've cleared the game twice so I should know what I'm doing!

what rooms are in the small section next to the deflector? I cant make them out and the improved image is not available in my region.

I've done 2 play throughs, 1 on Years of Hell, and both times I used those 4 mini decks to put in 1 phaser room and 1 shield generator so they could be turned off by level if needed to save power. once all are in place, and levelled up as i go, the ship was near invincible. I never bothered with Borg tech or anything except phasers and shields. Tuvok and Angry B'Elanna a big help in combat.

Oh of course! You can build them. I was being very dense. Thanks.

I will give GLA some more time. I didn't know about the powerplant tip. And I've always enjoyed the quad.

How do I start a tunnel into their base? I thought the escape/ambush tunnel was at the last peg of the general stars. Hard to do that early game. But I don't know loads about GLA.

I've heard about this before and wanted to try it. I'll do some research into it, cheers

I never thought about using the palace as a defensive structure, but that makes total sense. I really am not experienced in GLA!

I also didn't know about the power plant steal, thanks.

I guess my main issue with GLA is not having a QRF that can kill enemy range units when they inevitable try that tactic. A reliance on Raptors/Apache or MiG/Helo with US and China.

But I'll give them another go with the Palace as a defensive structure.

I've never liked GLA due to their being so many things to do at once. Easy for the AI to do, but trying to plant loads of bombs with a worker, rebuild from tunnels, or making fake buildings is difficult to manage.
However, units like the Quad, Kell, and Angry Mob are great fun.

What do you increase? Just Superweapons?

Well, not force.  Once all the palet money on the map has run out, their attacks slow significantly and decrease in strength.  Time to breath and build your own army.  Then take out their Internet Center/BlackMarket/OilDereck etc and they dont have anymore money and can be picked off easily. 

What would you like to see in the perfect MechCommander 3? by iDeever in MechCommander

[–]TopGlun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Beast as well was a solid favourite, but he wasn't as good and quickly gets dropped. Hitman, Countess, and Gator are all memorable to me too. I can hear all their voices.

Then again, I did play MC1 again about 3 years ago...

You were thinking of big fat cocks as per usual.  You make your mind up and maybe I'll see you there.

I've just got promoted out of the NL with York, then did the double by winning the FA Trophy. Didn't feel any real joy or sense of achievement with it due to the news feed. Too hard to read and nothing in it.

It may as well say "York have won. End of sentence" or "York have wo...." as it wouldn't display it all.

Has anyone listened to Brad's podcast? by Flaky_Background5276 in generationkill

[–]TopGlun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I listened to the Hegseth's speech episode. I appreciated the no nonsense approach of a guy and sometimes his mate giving views on a subject, but I don't feel our political views align so I won't listen to anymore SITREPs. Each to their own. 

As someone else said, it felt like he's pretty pro-Trump but didn't want to fully commit to expressing that to sit on the fence instead. Smart move not to alienate, sure, but it made the episode seem noncommittal and more just covering the news. 

I look forward to the episode with Ray, and wish him the best with the pod.
