sharpshooter (class 1 ship)

this class1 ship has the ability to fire directly into class2 and class3 when they engage in battle, so only the ships that survived in class1 can take their aim; the mp is only 3 because it would take 100 such shots to kill a single cruiser, which means waste 300 mp for a 60 mp kill... and it¸ll take 30 mp for a 8 mp destroyer...

and besides, as I think that all of them hit random ships in the enemy fleet the chance of it destroying anything alone is minimal against standard ships... It's a basic fighter which can do some extra damage in the enemy fleet, I think that maybe it should do 2 dmg to class2 and 3 to class3?!

*Almost an year and nine months later, goes to the roof and removes the 3cm dust over one of his inventions, and the dust makes him caugh up a lot*

Well, I never got a reply back then , maybe now it can be placed at least on one of those tech-planets?

It's good against a c2/c3 based fleet. It doesn't directly appear in the higher class combat, so it's not a *normal* target of any sort.On the other hand, very vuhlnerable against spectres, dreadnoughts, cyclopses, you name it. Against c1 too of course, also vs c2 with no c1. Strong against 1/500/1/1 or 1/1/60 for example. The damage in the higher classes might be improved if necessary.

What do u guys think about this *dinosaur*?

It's a nice way to go around the golden rule: "1500 c1 are useless if the enemy has ONE figher." And since it has to actually survive the c1 battle to do damage in c2 and to survive the c2 to do damage in c3, I reckon the low mp is worth it

A very nice Idea good thinking metody I think the admis should think about maybe adding it into the tech tree.If anything atleast test it out on a planet.

Actually it is too cheap, I think. Although I can see lots of use for it. It is sort of a combo sab/penetrator ( a long lost ship) A cerberus fighter does 4 damage to one class 3 vessel but it costs 3mp also.

But this ship gets basically 3 shots. I like it but I think it has to be more expensive.

Since the battle syntax for AFTER BATTLE hasn't been written, I believe the Admin will ignore the current invention.

Personally, I hope the ship will be add at least on a Tech Planet.

errr the *event,1* and *event,2* mean "after the battle of class". And the "after the battle" is used by the penguin,so it does already exist... Though they use "event,4"

its a good idea, but why would someone want to risk that much just to get 1 cruiser?? If the enemy happened to have several class1 ships then you would be screwed. Also, it makes more sense to use fighters and mine-deployers. it would do more damage...i think.... I must think more =P heheheh i have no idea what i'm talking about

ehh?~~ Plz elaborate Less fleets? How does that help? if you use 2 more mp for a "mine-deployer and fighter" and attack a class2 fleet then your almost gurearenteed to win or at leat destory a ship. Wouldn't that be better?
