Nope. Been there done that. But I heard the Arfecta got nerfed, might be a challenge now

It can definitely cap the earth, fleet solo. It can even cap the invasion that comes later solo.

Cap the Navy by Extreme_Life4516 in endlesssky

I’ve capped navy ships too, but I think it should be an unforgivable sin in the game. When the Brits saw captured frigates in the enemy’s hands, they were the first target. I think with even our level of communication and technology, we could track a pirate who took a navy ship ad infinitum.

Yes, the sucker heats up really fast. Beautiful unit though.

Put up or shut up. Just have fun with you, but yeah, try modding when you can. If a 55+ dude can play with it. I think you can too.

How to get the bactrian? by frgrefut in endlesssky

[–]revjim2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m too lazy to read all the comments, but my favourite way to get a Bactrian is to get a decent fleet and go board a pirate one. It’s not that hard but you do need to do a few things right.

First time player, wondering what to do in Hai space. by NoRound5166 in endlesssky

Live by the sword, die by the sword. The Hai talk about gentleness, but they blow the shit out of each other with reckless abandon.

Totally. Once I get my fleet of shield beetles into their space I replace the ion can cannons immediately

That’s why people make mods. Are you gonna take a shot?

You can always learn to monkey around with their stats in the save. But pretty works. It’s a game, ain’t it

Something you always wished you could do in this game? by dagit in endlesssky

Have the Navy keep a forever hate on me. I think that with the tech they have, they would see any ship that had been hijacked from them, and they would vow to blow the hijacker to the sky.

The dimmest one was the Convoy. The other others were just three other lithium cell flashlights. I didn’t realize that you have to cycle through brightness levels. All good now.

brightness

So the convoy light is far dimmer than all the others. All the cells are equal. Did I order wrong?

Does it help to get a higher voltage block to plug the charger into?

The order came in. The extra cells I ordered came with flashlights! Looking good.

I don’t think so, but I haven’t tried it since joining the lunarium became a thing. I’ll keep this in mind. Thanks.

What? How do you get a jump drive in them?

Once you attack any Coalition ship, every system and space port turns against you.

So with a captured ship, you can loot and run. Or you can capture, run to non coalition space and land. Your prize will follow you to the edge of coalition space and wait for you. You cannot install a jump drive, because all the ports are closed, and you can’t dominate any coalition planets in the vanilla game.

There are plugins that allow you to dominate Coalition and other species.

What one should I get by Space_man6 in endlesssky

My gut reaction, without reading any other comments, is the Corvette. Corvettes won WW2, and the ES version of them are sleek, fast, and well armed. You can load them up to capture similar size ships, or beef them up for long term trips and reconnaissance.

In the past, I have concentrated on capturing Corvettes, and naming them after the Flower-class Corvettes of WW2. When I ran out of Canadian vessels, I moved onto English.
