I have almost finished scouting the entire galaxy the Master’s left me in. I have charted almost half of the available systems. I have colonized about a quarter of the Galaxy. I have 3 opponents and I know where they are. The biggest threat to me is the Empire known as “Dave”.
I have started rolling out bigger ships – mostly Destroyer class (6P/4;;/14-14). I know they are a Master’s design, but they are slow. I have decided to wait until I gain a technical level before rolling out new designs. The Destroyers will provide inner system defense while my Raiders and Defenders press outward.
I am also experimenting with Fighters. The Master’s Jeep design allowed 4 Fighters in a fighting ship (again slow – the Master’s probably never worried about speed). My new carrier only carries 2 fighters and is a fast design (/1;2;/30-20) with no offensive armament. While vulnerable when attacking systems before the Fighters deploy, it has the advantage of speed. It will be useful to secure territory.
More consolidation, colonizing and securing my systems…
