Author Topic: Blockland Community Space Battles V2 || MACROSS MISSILE MASSACRE  (Read 22987 times)


The guy who made the enemy fleet at Kasheemun made a fleet entirely out of missile frigates, which are pretty pathetic against anything that isn't a frigate.

A wall made of eggshells? What could go wrong!
Unfortunately, we lost every one of our frigates but the cruisers just steamrolled them, taking literally no damage whatsoever. We also captured several of their ships (click for image), but since neither of you are using a Mid-Range flagship, they're going back to the homeworld.

Which just got attacked by another missile blockhead who made his fleet entirely out of cruisers armed with nothing but Plasma torcreepes and Rocket launchers. The fighters tore him up before he could destroy anything aside from the skirmishers that went out to meet him.

dauuhhhhhh whats a fighters

Oh yeah and we won at Rana II. Tingalz blew up but thanks to his flagship's perk he is not eliminated.

Now we are going to be on defense for a few turns while we wait for our money to go back up. Rana II had a small factory that will produce extra income once we gain loyalty.

Alright

Wait,since masterrockets has been kicked can we have his fleet?

No, it'll be the one that takes back any captured worlds. At least until I find someone else. Also several turns will be taken off to gain money to replenish the fleets. We had literally 86 credits before these battles. Each fleet cost about 30k.

Sell comrade

That sucks,alright.

The fleets are now replenished.

As a bonus for capturing the new planets, you can each have one more cruiser, three more frigates, and another fighter squadron.
I also may be altering current designs or even making a new ship design for you guys to use, seeing as there's a crapton of missile block fleets.

Beam cruiser

Support escort

Combat frigate

Antifighter frigate


and another laser fighter squadron

ok here's the new map

The home guard has split and there is now a fleet at Kasheemun. A single ship was dispatched to Rana II to keep order, as while it doesn't necessarily need protecting, the citizens need to be reminded who their taxes are going to.
The player fleets are at the homeworld, and there are two scouts prepared to look at Argoshka and Besustine.

Argoshka, send the scouts
it has argos in it :))))))


Scouts sent. Bestine appeared to be very fighter-heavy, and from the looks of how fast they were moving, consisted of mainly standard laser fighters, mixed with some pulse fighters, and some torcreep bombers bringing up the rear. Also, looking at the records of the records from that battle, there were a few more defeats and retreats than I would have liked to see.

Argoshka had a pair of cruisers, about five frigates, and two fighter squadrons. Judging by the speed of each ship, I'd say it's a good chance that the cruisers and frigates were missile blocks, and the fighters were rocket fighters. Again, bringing a ton of fighters would probably demolish this enemy.

As a result of this, everyone is getting an extra squad of laser fighters.

Also, keep in mind that the game likes to forget with me and change the enemy fleets, so don't be upset if what you see is not what you get.

I personally think we should all focus on bestine, but I want to wait to see what the others say before i make my decision

It might be worth noting that Besustine has a small factory and small naval academy, which slightly boost pilot/crew and money made per turn. Argoshka has a Shipyard Class B, which can produce Frigates and Fighters, as well as a medium factory.
