Summary0009057: Plasma Siege + Energy Collectors
DescriptionDecided to play some AI War today and in my first attack on the AI I may have been a little hasty, but in any case, they sent two Plasma Siege Starships at my home world in the early game.

In about 15 seconds they wiped me out.

Because of the plasma siege's ability to deal damage to units under a FF, the first things to go were my metal/crystal factories (no big deal), the next to go was my sole energy collector.

Cue lack of any ability to do anything what so ever.

I think the collector needs more health or something.

Woa, Draco18s, it's been a while.
Once Keith finished up with the results of the latest polls, I was planning on giving you that PM telling you that I think the game is in a far better, less grindy state (like you requested many, many months ago), but you beat me to it. ;)

In any case, yea, I wouldn't mind collectors and converters getting a bit more health.

I've been itching for something "new" lately, and the games I bought in the steam summer sale didn't satisfy that itch, so I loaded up AI War.

I have been keeping up with the latest change notes, so I was seeing progress.

Shame my friend who introduced me has a different set of requirements for coming back: Less Hard Counter.

About the Less Hard Counter thing, I think some of that will be alleviated some when the armor system adjustment comes around, and possibly a hull type distribution rebalance (though that would probably be later).

Also, adjusting fortress damage (0004777)
