Nah you had a small amount of fighters left, around 5 or so, but it was the Panther vs Odysseus that was close.
AV's Panther blew up early in the match and then your fighters started to work on destroying his fighters. Then at one point when all the fighters were still dueling between them selves, your Panther started chasing AV's Odysseus, and when I say chasing, I mean chasing. The Panther was pretty much following the Odysseus. Both the Panther's and the Odysseus's shields were down to around 10-15% when this happened. Luckily for you, since your Panther was chasing the Odysseus, you had the advantage of superior fire power. (Main vs Back Turret). Your IBLs managed to destroy the Odysseus before the Odysseus's PSGs could break your shields.
Pretty close.
EDIT: Ok results posted, new save files are up. Video should be up tomorrow morning. This is the last match before I leave.

Hey, I'm the one with 20M credits of bomber.Geez! Silly Artificial Incompetency!It's useless to have missiles,

I learn how to script and make a better combat AI for the game (Ok, that was a joke ).
Nah, wouldn't be too hard, just come up with a script which makes weapon selection sensible, probably hasn't been done before.

Yeah, and I will not use fewer or even not a single missile at all the next time. And I will rethink the use of capitol ships. Depending on the rules of the next round.EmperorJon wrote:Hey, I'm the one with 20M credits of bomber.Geez! Silly Artificial Incompetency!It's useless to have missiles,
It has been done, for Reunion as a stand-alone project, and for TC as part of other scripts. I think, Gazz and Lucike have done certain changes to the combat AI.EmperorJon wrote:I learn how to script and make a better combat AI for the game (Ok, that was a joke ).

Well, I will use missles next XFF. I think the AI does quite a good job on those. I ran a battle with one of my new fleets and it seems that the AI doesn't just has a fireprobabilty based on a certain percentage. Against Spitzeuk's fleet not a single heavy missle has been fired against the Panther (PALCs would have rendered those useless anyway.
But using my old fleet against Kalu's those Katanas had not much of their missles left.
Of course, 30 missles are to much for a single ship. But during a 6 minutes battle they can fire about 4-8 missles. And I wouldn't M8 for the Bomberjob. An M3 has similar shielding, can also use heavy missles and is as a fighter not useless - and rather inexpensive.

I might rethink my previous statement, too. There are quite a lot Wasp and also Typhoon (from what I've seen in the vid) flying around. I agree so far, that the current count of missiles is sufficient for a decent job. Heavy missiles, such as M8 torpedos, however, are out. I haven't seen any fired towards any of my ships, which is a clear fail.Cpt.Jericho wrote:Well, I will use missles next XFF. I think the AI does quite a good job on those.

I've spent the past page noting down reasons why I'll lose my next match and you say that?Yes I have to say EJ seems to be a little carried away by his victory!

Anyway, I want to make it clear who I vote for as the expected winner. I want the prize!

Winner will definitely be Imperium3. 100%.
I will definitely lose my next match. 100%.
Kalu will definitely lose to Imperium3. 100%.
Done.

Wordizzle.
I've been devoured by summer classes and just got a chance to look at the proceedings.
Re: the Sludgeworms, WOOHOO I called one correctly.
I have full confidence in their ability to carry their next match.
Re: TiT's, I'd say the Yoko ramming the Boreas was a tactical success for Spychotic. The Boreas' shields were looking pretty solid before the ramming attack, and I think Spy's fleet would have taken a LOT more losses without it.
Re: EJ and AV, definitely pumped to see the new video.
Sucks to have victory snatched away by a technicality, though - which means it was a close match in either direction.
Re: me not having fighters, do too!
Even if they're falcon haulers, so more like carrier-friendly mini-corvettes.
