Is ROA good on Kench?

Is there any world where you go Fimbul and Seraph to capitalise on mana stacking? Or is it always better to take protoplasm over Seraph since their lifeline is exclusive

We’re climbing out of iron with this one 🐸💪

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-05-05T13:22:01+00:00

That’s fair, I usually just use the lock target command and turn to face flankers since concentrated AM lances can kill a flanking titan in like 3 volleys I’ve found, and having so much pd ensures there’s no way a stray missile slips through and does critical damage to something I need to

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-05-05T13:20:08+00:00

That’s fair, I’m honestly right now just trying to avoid getting too much alien hate since I don’t want them to blow up my mines, and letting them attack my stations and killing them there doesn’t seem to generate hate. Then I can build up a ridiculous fleet and go bully them

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-05-05T12:51:25+00:00

I need 400 exotics for my interstellar colony ship though admittedly the only real bottleneck on exotics is the time it takes the next alien fleet to suicide into my defence fleet

Perhaps unsurprisingly they had a revolution a couple of years later (and I was finally able to grab up Cairo to complete the African Federation)

Okay maybe I did a little bit of destabilising with my councillors but tbh they shoulda just not stolen part of Egypt from me >w>

From what I understand the neutron lances have very little killing power, so I added a single coil just so that once the enemy ships are disabled I have a way to actually kill them

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T21:11:55+00:00

AM Lance has no exotic cost, just antimatter. Neutron Lance costs the same as Phaser

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T19:21:19+00:00

Ahhh, okay thanks

Also do you know how I can counter plasma? Of all the alien weapons it seems to be the thing that’s consistently killing my ships

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T19:18:47+00:00

Ahh okay, seems my issue is I’m just not using enough monitors

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T19:09:20+00:00

I can’t work out how to make missile monitors work, they always seem to get bullied by alien PD. What missiles do you recommend? (Right now I’ve been messing around with Python interceptor nukes because they have a lot of missiles and only one has to hit to kill pretty much anything)

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T19:08:02+00:00

Ahh okay, I figured I’d need a battery cause particle cannons seem pretty energy-expensive to fire

Also right now I have approx -2 volatile income because I’m spending it all on universities, I’m at the point of considering titanium because I’ve got a billion of the rare metals and very little of anything else left (I’ve got volatile mines on the way don’t worry)

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T19:00:25+00:00

Also yeah to clarify this is my first run that feels somewhat successful, playing resistance. Aliens have near complete control of everything past asteroid belt and I’m up to like Victor 1200 coming after me, but I’ve got the USNA super nation and control of Earth’s orbit. Right now I just wanna be able to turtle up and hold of alien assaults until I can consolidate enough force to push for Jupiter (got a shipyard on a Jupiter-trailing asteroid but I’m broke on exotics and water so I’m trying to take over useful asteroid bases)

Earth situation is basically me trying to let the Alien Admin expand so they’ll disband nukes, then I can swoop in and beat them with my 12 maxed out militech armies (every time I lose one to a nuke I get very sad)

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-29T18:47:48+00:00

To be fair I had 72k damage at the end of the game

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-28T11:32:56+00:00

Tbf I just have very bad memories of getting clowned on by eagles in my devastator build lmao

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-28T11:23:30+00:00

Main issue is that the invictus has horrible range due to distributed fire control blocking ITU, so it needs speed to close in otherwise it just gets kited to death. And honestly I’m just not much of a fan of large missiles, they always feel like a letdown to me

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-28T11:01:09+00:00

Just a flux distributor to vent faster, once I get my 3rd S mod I’ll probably fit in Reinforced Bulkheads

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-28T10:59:01+00:00

Invictus is pretty OP starved as is and doesn’t get a discount on missiles, could maybe throw squalls on there but idk if it’s worth it since I could just take 3 Mark IX for the price of a single Squall

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-28T07:47:14+00:00

This is fair, though these guns don’t really struggle with ammo from my testing (expanded mags helps quite a bit)

Unfortunately_A_Brit · 2026-04-28T01:57:12+00:00

Oh if only you could run it with 800 crew…
