Samovar posted:Yeah, in my playthrough I'm well torn between improving my ability to make money and actually having enough dough to buy the ships needed to take on the enemy. It's because they can't ram without instantly dying. Such a weakness is both moral AND spiritual, and they refuse to let it rub off on a player through a campaign!

White Coke posted:Tyranids? The Orks and Tau don’t have any special reason to be there so them not having a campaign makes sense, but the Eldar were an important part of the 13th Black Crusade’s narrative. Which factions had campaigns in the first game? Imperium only, no AdMech or Astartes joint ops either!

White Coke posted:Is there any way for the Imperium to get Chaos ships and vice versa? The Bastion Fleets list, which represents Cadia and other sectors around the Eye of Terror, has rules that let you pick a few typically Chaos vessels to represent the decommissioned reserves they have lying around for the next Black Crusade, while Chaos can get some Imperial ships to represent the fact that potentially any Imperial Navy vessel can turn traitor even if some are more predisposed to it. I wish! Honestly, outside of blatantly demon possessed vessels, it's not like "Chaos" ships aren't just stolen Imperial vessels for the most part. Would be nice to see them having more variety from their non-Imperial Chaos members; something wacky like a Yu'Vath crystal ship or a Chaos-corrupted Necron vessel feel entirely appropriate to the faction. Dark Mechanicus vessels, alone, would be a wild nightmare of, say, Necrontyr living metal, eldar solar sails, and warpsmith-enhanced lance batteries. Would make that faction pretty busted, I suppose!

AtomikKrab posted: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 easy resolution to that is to launch your own wing to counteract them while they are also within range of your turrets; that shreds them and you (usually) don't lose your own fighter wings in the process.

bunnyofdoom posted:As I understand it, the story missions only get harder and harder while the whackamole is the best way to keep building renown to get the tools you need as well as upgrading systems and the like. It's also very important to keep developing your fleet commanders and ships' levels while you can! That, and building up resources to grow your battle groups. Phasing out most of the lighter vessels in exchange for cruisers with maybe one or two escorts, or even Battle/Grand cruisers (though that'd take quite a bit of whack-a-mole) is pretty important, because light cruisers become little better than escorts after no time flat.

The only downside to Nova Cannons is you can't be in ramming range!
