For me, it's:
BS
BC
Recs
I've never liked using my Destroyers offensively.
Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#12ok this is guna make me seem stupid but rf and dd(destroyers or sumthin?)
Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#13rf is rapid fire
dd is destroyer.... and if you look in the help section under Zorg Lingo for Noobs, you will find a list of commonly used terms for the game

Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#1420 LF is equal to 1 BS in weapons and shields and cost (more crystal though)
my question is say a battle took place between 1000 BS plus 20000 LF against 2000 BS (exactly same tech levels say 100% for both players)
who is the likely winner? would the loss rate of LF mean the 2000 BS would win
i really want to have LF as part of my fleet as i like to pretend they are tie fighters
but are they worth having? shall i start concentrating on BS and D
im already giving up on HF and using as moon shot fodder

Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#15I was never a major fleeter, but I always kept about 10k LF in my fleet (Along with some other fodder) and they seemed to do fairly well.
Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#16my favorite are
battleships; for the damage
largeccargos: for the recources
destroyers: for the other half of the attacking

losers never win, but then winners never lose either.

Light Fighters
Battleships
Bombers

You thought you had a easy path to victory, before i stepped in the path!
Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#18Because there isn't any rapid fire the 20k LF are a really good fodder right now, but if the RF is implemented anytime soon LF as fodder is easily destroyed by a large number of Cruisers.OneWingedAngel wrote:20 LF is equal to 1 BS in weapons and shields and cost (more crystal though)

To be honest, RF is a very important part of the game and since it's missing on this server the figures are really hard to predict.
As to answer the threads question
BS because of the large cargo space
BC
Recyclers.
Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#19i think when RF comes into the game (and the bug where you lose big ships to LF being fixed) best 3 ships will be
for attacking
destroyer
battlecruiser
bomber
for defending
deathstar
deathstar
and erm deathstar
for attacking
destroyer
battlecruiser
bomber
for defending
deathstar
deathstar
and erm deathstar
Re: 3 best ships for fleeters ?
#20I am pretty sure there is some kind of defensive rapid fire now. If they implement Rapid fire as it was originally intended, the pendulum is going to swing more in favor of the attacker as it is unbalanced to the defender now. However, the problem of losing large ships by "overfire" or whatever they want to call it is still the bane of the RIP. It will still be the bane of the RIP until it is fixed.OneWingedAngel wrote:i think when RF comes into the game (and the bug where you lose big ships to LF being fixed) best 3 ships will be

Currently, I think the RIPS are good for defense though. Particularly in larger number.
I still think the BS will be popular as BCs are very expensive to produce.
