Re: Encouraging people to make more diverse fleets

Well I wanted to keep some limitations in. I dont think its good for bs/cr to be able to target co/fi because people might just concentrate on building bs/cr. My idea with co/fi being able to target bs/cr is that they move first and can launch alot of attacks against bs/cr. Then Just as you have said, they would need an escort fleet. You would have co/fi with your bs/cr to help destroy some of the defenders co/fi in the same move and also to have to de/fr along because when they attack the co/fi fleet would be devastated

It all depends on
bs/cr being able to do very high damage to de/fr
de/fr being able to do very high damage to co/fi
co/fi being able to do very high damage to bs/cr (by being able to attack multiple times, fast and first before de/fr can attack back)

This way no one class is strong in everything and no one class type will be successful on its own. You need to have a diverse fleet.


Oh, additional note because I confused people earlier. I mean for the targeting system to be the same, ie ships are only able to attack set ship types as now. But any de for example that are able to target a co or fi should do massive damages. Just to lower the way a player is able to depend on building just one class.
