DWA86 -> Some questions (12/22/2013 2:19:25 PM)

So everything's going great chugging along to galactic domination. I found a death star looking thing being repaired by another empire and it was nearly done. I thought sweet so I declared war invaded killed their construction ship and moved my own in. Then the thing just randomly blew up after I worked on it for a bit...so what gives.

To make matters worse I could really used that thing cause right before I invaded to secure it these refugees show up. And by the time I look over altered securing my would be death star they've got several systems and apparently there's billions of em on each planet.

Did I mention they decided to settle 1 system away from my capital...I figure this wont stand to I try to declare war and drive them out...so ,y previously invincible battle fleets not so much. What weapon are they using? they have a beam and a torpedo type and their packing massive amounts of firepower for their size. little 250 size destroyers with huge fire power. I was able to kill a few but they just tore through me...so I need a new empire I suppose.



Osito -> RE: Some questions (12/22/2013 3:35:46 PM)

I'd guess the ship blew up because the other empire who were working on it saw your fleet warp in and thought ""F*** this, there's no way they're getting it! Let's booby trap it while we have the chance."

So far as the refugees are concerned, well, without giving anything away, you need to be VERY well prepared before taking them on (it is part of the "Return of the Shakturi" story).

Maybe a foreign agent sabotaged your construction ship?

Yeah, the planet destroyer mysteriously blowing up definitely sounds like sabotage. It has happened to me a couple of times.

ok so how I got two of the things. Found a third but thought id let the other empire have it to make it interesting. Refugees showed up just as I finished the first one so I have plan for them this time.

How do I get the super laser off the moons. I read about people building them into their own ships. I tried demolishing one and I got a fuel cell. Do I need to have every component except the laser researched to get said lazor? also have found any of the other alleged super weapons how would I got about locating them at this point?

There are three ways to get superweapons
1. find them in a ruin
2. tech-steal from another empire that has them (the techs are called something like "super beam weapons")
3. reverse-engineer relics after filling out the entire tech tree, the progress will go toward super weapons (it will take a lot of ships for that though)

Though honestly, the super laser is the only super weapon thats actually any good because it can blow up planets. The rest is just really underpowered compared to regular endgame weapons.
