camulus777 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 True but 8 will be more than enough to take out even Tier 4 armor ships. I was considering going for some SRB's too but they tend to not be as effective for me. I like shooting off at ships from 20km away . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camulus777 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Tier 4? lol What?Tier 4 armor is when you reinforce the armor against a central spine not directly linked to the command pod. So when a projectile strikes your ship the impact is taken by the armor and reinforcement rather than simply knocking your command pod off within the armor. Also if you double layer or triple layer this it can prove almost impervious to smaller caliber weapons.I'll end up explaining this probably in KSP Naval Academy Ep 9 Armor and Turn Based Tactics.

daemonCaptrix Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Oh, that's what's on the Nautilus-class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Yes if reinforced properly it takes several hits to kill it or you can be like me and figure out at witch speed your missile wigs out and ignore the armor . I tend not to do this to often because it make it harder to aim the missile and I consider it an exploit. So don't worry I'm not killing cans with tetryon trans phasic modulation weaponry.

Deathsoul097 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Kod is a thing people have made up on the forums, you know, the whole "Adding K to every word" routine. I'm agnostic/Athiest anyways so it doesn't make a difference to me either way. Like I said earlier, I'm just being silly and screwing around in my frustration with this MediaFire thing.

Comrade Jenkens Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Tier 4 armor is when you reinforce the armor against a central spine not directly linked to the command pod.

Also if you double layer or triple layer this it can prove almost impervious to smaller caliber weapons.I'll end up explaining this probably in KSP Naval Academy Ep 9 Armor and Turn Based Tactics.That's tier 3. Tier 4 is where the fuel tanks are also separated from the spine on separate pieces to even further improve shock absorption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course, Still doesn't matter, at 2km (my favorite firing range) You can vaporize the insides of ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briansun1 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 ...so where did all these "tiers" get decided on?...I wounder how long it take for them to notice this... and how long I need to wait untill I get a replie to my question... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daemonCaptrix Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 In that case, it's still tier IV. I just wasn't aware of the distinction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I thought T 3 was the engines. Those are the most likely to get knocked off in a battle any way. Their connection in ksp sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
