Gotta say I spooled up a 'cron campaign because of this, and lightning zapping people left and right is just... satisfying, and being able to go "nice escort pack there, be a shame if... they got covered in scarabs and eaten."

I normally do brace because the AI absolutely LOVES to yeet fighter wings at the beginning of the fight and chopping those up before the actual clash helps.

the smaller ships have little hp and low troops, they are hyper vulnerable the moment they get hit with a boarding action etc and the ai absolutely loves to spam those at anything vulnerable.

Man, can those Tyranids do a number on you! I'm just lucky I didn't lose more ships!

Nids hit like absolute trucks and can really mess you up with the death acid fields, I like to jam torpedos into them or bait them with a ship then hop away from the charge if i'm the crons.

Bracing yourself for them and basically unleashing hell right before they get in close works

Chaos wants to use those long range guns and poke at them.

Crons I feel have it fairly easy, let them close in on you and open up your star waves/aoe abilities, then just use your drive teleport to not be where their suicide explosions are

Nids are really strong up close, and you need to close to board

Punishing them at range or setting up punishments as they close works best. Torpedos down their throat as they try to charge in is satisfying.
