Fleet Race?
« on: August 30, 2013, 09:34:27 PM »
When the other ships come out, should we focus on a particular race, or maybe a mix?

If we want 1 Race, which one?

I would probably pick Red, but I would need to test play them first.

 ;D We should go 1 race for sure, but i'd wait until carmine finishes up with the races to choose one.

Well, here is a general break down:

5 is best  - 1 is worst

Speed/maneuverability
5. Yellow
4. Blue
3. Human
2. Red
1. Green

Firepower
5. Red
4. Green
3. Human
2. Yellow
1. Blue

Engineering
5. Green
4. Red
3. Human
2. Blue
1. Yellow

Science strength
5. Blues
4. Yellow
3. Human
2. Green
1. Red

The Hull and Shield values are going to be equal to help balance things

So generally speaking, Yellow focuses on speed, Red focuses on Firepower, Green focuses on Engineering and Blue focuses on Science.

So if we do 1 Race, I might suggest Red just because they will have the highest DPS, but it lacks in other areas.

I have been working and reworking back stories for each of the races. I will be mailing them to Teeth and making corrections as needed until we get all things hashed out. One of the ideas I had was that we have 'Races' but because of the war power is not held by 'Races' or 'Planets' or even a 'Galactic Confederation'. Large power is held by individual Fleets and not any one races or planet. Each 'Race' has it own ultimate goals but for their own reasons find a good point to make alliance even with what might be seen as their enemies. For that reason I think we should lean toward a mixed race Fleet because a science ship would have an advantage being "Blue" and the Duet ship I think would be an advantage as "Red". A "Yellow" Solo would be so quick it will be hard to even hit. I hope I made my thoughts clear  enough to understand. Only getting 3-4 hours of a sleep a day right now lol
