  Vote For Another Queen Ship  

I vote we have another 8 range Queen ship, there are to many capital ships in the game & only one Chemical ship other than the V.Borrelly which not everyone has.

It would be nice to be able to Duel Queen Stacks vs a player who normally spams a ton, Queen are sorta usless with weak hull but i think it would be much easier to cut down people with another Queen ship of 8 range.

8 Range being alot of Capital Missle ships are 7 range & they all have Energy or Kentic which kill Runner anyways if they are on defense.

A group thing over the course of a very long and grueling day of testing, testing, more testing and then retesting when tweaks are made. A wonderfully painful process.

yes it was DMM`s idea though balancing is done on a group thing, not indfervidual

King should be a free ship not a paid ship. where is the balance in half the players not having it. Paid accounts already have turn rate bonus, turn bonus, & better ships in general already.

Really? I think it should stay the way it is...mostly neutral ships.
Chemical damage is cool because the strafez ships are so extreme. There are already enough race-specific chemical ships - any more and the uniqueness of chemical damage will be damaged.

That being said, adding the idea of adding another chemical ship is pretty good, to combat those spams. What are the stats on this mythical strafez king?

true but still... the GOOD chem ships arent even accessible. Everyone except guard and virals get more than one. 3 and 2 respectively, not counting starbases (viral).

Perhaps a race specific chemical ship would work. Maru gets one, miners get one, and terrans get one.

That way there are neutrals for everyone and race specifics for that race... balance.

kalzul isn`t playable only the 2 ships the guardians can use are available

correction: ALL Kal-Zul ships fire chemical.

as far as capital ships go, there are 5. But your right both runners have chem weapons. I think the K, yang-fo and xe have em too?

Just for the free guys, add just one terran ship...

Tyr is nice but it definitely has its disadvantages. And only those keeping them small in number or spamming them really get to benefit from them. Being a heavy hitter, those who use other ships have no use for it.

Scorpion starbase is nice too... but we could use another TERRAN destroyer/cruiser that would fire energy and kinetic. Much like a small version of a dreadnaut

Heck, the miners get 2 battleships. Why not at least give us a photon class battleship??

Umm... i never played as a guard but I know that there are at least 5 ships in SFGC that use chemical:

H. Brigantine
K. Hun-Li
K. Hun-Xe
V. Borrelley
Strafez Queen

even numbers are always best. Vote Strafez King. Or new terran/miner ships that have chem attacks

I thought strafez king was originally DMM`s idea ...
EvilAbadayos
99+ day(s) ago
and you forget I helped balance this and the other mentioned C class ship amongst others including possible guard rebalance and collective ship fixes.

But as already stated...they are all on hold due to stephen not doing anything about it
