daemonCaptrix Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 And I thought red was the overused colour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Well, this is the "Jungle" fleet so I don't know what other color could I useEDIT: but actually I forgot that you use similar paint scheme (only green is brighter on your ships). I will change that for next battle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will change that for next battleYou don't have to change your colours. Britannia uses lime green. I used to use neon green and black. Now I use emerald green, steel grey, and silver, with crimson highlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Posting my move soon, just learning how to use the persistEDIT: I hope you don't mind tarzan but i've used hyperedit to get my ships there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Here's my fleet, two 'Dracos' and a 'Caesius'The first draco attacks the TSCS Bagheera with four i-beams doing little damage, then Jebs collection of space krakens falls off of the shelf in the Draco and destroys the craft randomly (seriously the kraken attacked my ship while i was attacking and rendered it just a debris field around Dres)Very crappy picture of my fleet.After kraken strike (i didnt get a chance to take a picture of my turn, if you'd like i can reload the persist and take it a again)Persist:http://www./download/7bv6j8fb55riov4/persistent.sfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Sure, hyperedit is fine, I also used it. You can redo your move, it would be a really short battle if you wouldn't also, those 3 ships make the whole 160t or you just didn't want to place more? (I'm not in home right now so I can't check myself, I will be in 20-30 minutes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I don't know the weight i did'nt check but i put three because i didn't want any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) If you put the mechjeb part on a ship it will show you the weight if you click "vessel info" (or something similar). You can do it even in SPH/VAB and remove the part later if you don't want it. Waiting for your re-moveEDIT: actually, you managed to damage "Bagheera" pretty much as half of the ship's insides is gone, including main engine and more than a half of missiles, but it still has a few and also secondary engines (used for manuveuring but they will do) so it's still operational. Also, your ships are 37,3t (Caesius) and 17,25t (each Draco).My offer for re-moving is still present, you might also want to place some more/another ships (as your's don't make even half of the mass count) but it's not obligatory. But please don't plase them all in one spot as it increases lag Edited May 8, 2014 by Tarzan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I re-moved and took a different approach, i took a draco and the caesius into a rendezvous with Baloo before attacking with the draco.This attack did heavy damage.Then i landed one of my Dracos on Dres, for safekeeping.Persist:http://www./download/7bv6j8fb55riov4/persistent.sfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Actually, this is all what is left after BalooMy move:Jungle lead decided to engage on one of Dracos (the one on orbit)Setting up an interceptAfter first salvo of I-beamsDraco was damaged but I didn't know how much and wanted to be sure so I fired a second salvoThen I proceeded to examine damagesThis is all what is left after the Draco. Pilot survived, you might want to give him a lift after the battle.persistentP.S. yes, I know, I'll try to make more screenshots on my next move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Damn, I'll pick him up with a scoutboat after the battle, for now, i'm going after Bagheera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I attacked the Bagheera, and i have to say it's armour is strong, but it was reduced to rubble after i fired the SRB straight into it's hull.After two I-Beams into the hull the Bagheera seemed untroubled, but after being hit by an SRB, It needed a bit more than a few new panels to repair. However, the caesius had slurped up the last of it's fuel, it was now a sitting duck.Persist: http://www./download/7bv6j8fb55riov4/persistent.sfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I destroyed the Draco that moved already or another one?EDIT: ok, I guess it was another one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 One of them is on the surface of dres, you must have destroyed the orbiting one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Actually, "Bagheera" is operational but doesn't have any missiles left.So i proceeded to land with "Jungle one"Getting closer...On the groundAfter the first salvoActually I shot everything I had. In daylightExamining damageI don't think it will be able to startpersist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Can i still use missiles from my ship even if the original core is detached? One of the missile pods from the orbiting draco has enough fuel to reach Jungle Leader.Oh right nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Actually, those missiles from "Bagheera" are also operational, but no, I think it's against the rulesEDIT: 5-Weapons can only be fired from the original ship core and must be used within the the same turn that they are fired.

Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I know, the only operational craft left is caesius, and it's out of fuel, i'm not out yet though:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 How is it possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Okay, forget the last post, I'm out. 'Caesius' fired a last, defiant salvo into the abyss, rendering it unable to move or fire weapons. She was still intact though and towed tediously back to LKO where she was deorbited and landed, she will be back on the frontline soon but for now victory goes to Tarzan SC, congratulations.

Tarzan Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) Thanks I won by inches to be fair and I had one ship more (and almost twice your weight) so I wouldn't call it a big victory. I have to learn a lot and I think this is the best way. Really good game, megalodonSo, anybody willing to make another small battle?

Megalodon 720 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Thanks, i will probably use probe cores more often now, i saw that none of your ships had any crew which, now that i think about it, isn't a bad idea. Also should i delete the save now that the battle is over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Eagle 1 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Can i still use missiles from my ship even if the original core is detached?

Spartwo Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 One of you have to change colors, The build style is so similar I can't tell who's is who's.I then made a Destroyer from the same pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
