I need to think about this. But i think controlling all these escorts is tuff. maybesome need dmg range or speed adjusted. But they should still be able to hold objectives.

I mean single ships not fleets. So having a mix is always best still u have a mix of rock paper scissors against a mix or maybe against only scissors...i just want to say u need those factors for the game to be interesting.

Lore is never an arguement for gameplay power...still phase out should be there...In bfg the tabletop they were unbeatable. it really should be different. I think slow with very rare 120sec or something but long during super speed with multiple turns during so but needs to be choosen for complete activation once befor activation and course cant be changed during it. Its like giving chain commands. very slow but instant turn on some ships otherwise ( base speed) strong guns strong all round tank. Cant remeber if easy to enter or not at all applies in the lore.

Its rock paper scissors. Thats why you can mix fleets and dont know what you are up to nxt. You suggest to remove rock and scissors so paper (ur preference) always is up against paper. Than play chess. I cant agree with you here at all.

Objectives provoke fights. If you hold 3 of 5 u win. 'U say u had no fight cause he had all objectives? with 3 ships you could have covered 3 objectives. But u would need to fight hus frigates. 'U just cant chase em. Is he faster ? Let him come to u. Are u faster? Make him chase u. It cats and mice.

I agree some realistic approach be nice. But objectives are exremly important for balance while beeing true to the lore for all races

I really think you can win with map control against full bs orkz and quiet easy

I haven't enough games under the belt to tell. So far noone outdamaged me yet. Best try was a mechanicum nova fleet that hit me pretty hard but still could not destroy me. He outmanouvered me and won through map control non the less. I have about 10 games or maybe 15 so far with my Ork fleet. I think I need about 300 more to make any saying about the balance XD. It's not obvious. The game seems easy on first look cause of the easy controlls but there is really some depth with all those fleets.

I think in matched your matched up against equal players with sort of equal ranks. I never felt beeing on a dissadvantage in any of my mp games. It's not "ranked" of LoL yet. Just play and have fun all the players are as noob as you so no worries. The sooner you start the better for you. I think they need the stats for balance and in full version it will be different.
