Battleships-POWER UP!

[Jinx]

in a hypothetical scenario where battleships are all buffed to like 3 times their basehull; nothing changes too much...

even with 3 times the hull, they ll still die first in any larger battle - mostly due to the fact that fighter vs. fighter lasts waaay too long ( and the looser in the high skill competition is usually determined by the first one that mentally gives up - or gets bored ... instead of the one that has the greater skill )


there have been thoughts about dramaticly boasting the passive defenses of warships ( buffing the hull ) - it has a few interesting aspects... - so lets just assume everything stays as it is ( weapondamage etc. ) and only the hull is increased. ( thinking of 10x the current hull AT LEAST )

- bombers still have it as easy as now - only now they really need buddies to add enough firepower to destroy a warship - or it will most likely simply withdraw heavily damaged to some base, simply cause it lasts

- warship vs. warship battles are different to fighter combat - cause its not about "who has more hull vs. weapondamage and energy core anymore ( in such simple terms )" but it is more about who uses what weapon to what tactical advantage. - NO warship will be destroyed or even heavily damaged by a single powercore - and battelships take LONG to recharge.

so a warship vs. warship fight might become a lot more dynamic - when teamed up against - they ll still die fairly quickly though



the downsides

- 2 bombers will most likely not kill even a low skill battleship anymore, cause they get bored ( unless they are of that strange breed of people who get excited when they can harm someone without getting harmed )

- fighting warships can in general take too long to bother.
