Re: DITL Battle #12 Drancoris vs Spocky
Turn 4 - Conn Captain Spocky orders his ship hard to starboard and thrusters forward hoping to draw himself around to broadside the enemy ship. The Watt carefully turns and moves ahead at half imulse, reaching the desired mark Spocky orders the ship Port, back to it's original heading and ahead. Th...

Re: Tactical War Simulation
We're getting a little ahead of ourselves here. This is a work in progress that right now is designed around a Clone Wars style campaign. I'm working on developing a more sophisticated battle simulation algorithm that could handle something like multiple different classes of ship, but there's still ...

Re: Tactical War Simulation
No. There is no expansion of power, no addition of classes. It's simply about managing the battlefield and the units you do have.

Re: Tactical War Simulation
Think the format could be used to re-fight the Dominion War? That's something I'd like to try to see SIMmed. Maybe. This first iteration is still pretty rough. This version uses raw stat ships (i.e. all Battle Cruisers have the same stats regardless of whose it is) and since the units all have the ...

Re: Tactical War Simulation
Some politics, but not like it was in the SIM's. Rate of production is fixed by the size of the unit/length of a turn. i.e.a 1 Battlecruiser can be produced per shipyard per turn, or 6 corvettes could be produced. You don't have the ability to build shipyards/training facilities, those exist of the ...

Tactical War Simulation
So I was recently inspired to try a new kind of battle simulation. We've had the large scale SIM games controlling an entire empire that could stretch for months, and these shorter ship v ship battle sims that last a few weeks and a hand full of turns, I'm looking to try something a little more midd...

Re: DITL Battle #12 Comments Thread
The Steamrunners are a little more powerful (especially in their forward arsenal) than the Galor/Constellation, so as soon as they were within boxing range they could start throwing some heavy hits.

Re: DITL Battle #12 Drancoris vs Spocky
Turn 3 - Tac Captain Spocky quickly turns to his tac officer and orders the forward phasers to fire, followed by a full spread of torpedoes. The deadly phaser beams jump off the surface and slam into the forward shields of the Artimis, weakening them. Next comes the full onslaught of torpedoes. The...

Re: DITL Battle #12 Drancoris vs Spocky
Turn3 - Conn Ignoring the stares of bewilderment from the rest of his (simulated) bridge crew, Captain Spocky again orders his ship to sit in space. Captain Drancoris however orders his ship to continue the charge hoping to bring them into a reasonable enough range that he will actually be able to ...

Re: DITL Battle #12 Drancoris vs Spocky
Turn 2 - Tac Captain Spocky orders the standard torpedo tubes to fire two more photons at the approaching vessel. Captain Drancoris doesn't blink as the two torpedoes approach, but is no less relieved with both torpedoes fly wide of the ship. SITREP: Artemis: Sparkly Clean Watt: Torpedo capacity do...

Re: DITL Battle #12 Drancoris vs Spocky
Turn 2 - Conn Captain Spocky makes no moves, continuing to stare out the viewscreen at the enemy. Captain Drancoris however orders the ship ahead full. The impulse engines roar to life as the ship starts to move forward, rapidly closing the distance between the two vessels. SITREP: The ships are fa...
