Mothership For Each Planet

[Wolf359]

well you would have to say a flagship is bigger than a mothership.

no, the enterprise wasnt the biggest ship in federation fleet, flagship just means the command ship. has nothing to do with size

lol - you didn't answer my question as to whether you have seen Independence Day - in that we had one HUGE, MASSIVE, GIGANTIC, LARGE BEAST of a mothership, which split into smaller, but still MASSIVE sub-motherships, each of which carried fleets of fighters.

So yes - there has been a sci-fi where that has happened.

Yeah i did see it, but in most scifi capital ships dont enter other capital ships, unless the is a large size difference. why cant we just have 10 m/s of the same size, just click open mothership screen and see waht we see now only 10 times so you could have one with 1000 weapons, sheilds another with 500of each etc. that way you can do stuff to all 10. and remember this is stargate no motherships enter other motherships!

What a narrow minded finishing statement there!

Stargate also doesn't have massive covert operations where literally hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of spies are sent on a single 'covert' operation - lol.

Neither does it have motherships which are capable of moving planets.

However - it does have STARGATES - which this game doesn't.

This game has evolved - and, since the Tauri within the series have not explored the whole universe - how do we know that there are no motherships capable of entering bigger motherships??

has anyone seen season 2 of stargate atlantis have a look at the deadalus compared to a wratih hive in allies they show you the two on a screen on top of each other the wraith hive is almost 10 times bigger also take one look at the orion it's masive and the deadalus would easily fit in one of the hangers the deadalus is earths version of a mothership well not since the rion but u get get my jist i like the idea and think that being able to have more than on ms would increase the games potential

just think of it going to attack some one they c one ship thrn all of the suden theirs 10 of em what a suprise

What if you could dock your m/s on one of the planets. Then the m/s would help defend the planet. She would be away from your home world so she wouldn´t help you with attacking/raiding as if you have sent her on exploration.

Technically she should be able to defend your homeworld too since they are in the same solar system,10 planets only remember?, (can't take more than a few minutes to travel with their uber hyperdrives)
I think the mothership should be able to come and jump in to help defend any planet that is under attack, although you should then also be give the option to prevent this (to avoid unwanted losses)
and it would be only MS fleets against enemy MS fleets+planetary defences.

but then people would just amass one big ms with loads of fleets and use that to defend. Therefore i'd suggest that the ms that is defending will have greater losses on fleets compared to the attacking one. this could be an incentive to invest into planetary defences instead of fleets only.

I think fleets would be a neat thing. Real dillema. 5 Smaller Motherships or one super?
I think possibly have it where you build shipyards... Specify size and it is built over a number of turns like in real life?

[Fenrir Oorgata]

perhaps an unlimited amount of ships should be allowed to be built, but only a limited number of fleets can be moving at any one time (New tech upgrade).

So you build a shipyard (Levels 1-10), build ships and you can send them to each of your planets, and you could send any mulitiple of fleets to attack other peoples fleets but you cant go over the maximum fleet amount allowed.

So if u were allowed 3 fleets at any one time, then you could attack any other 3 planets at any one time.

Each fleet could be as big as u want it to be.

If anyones played http://www.ogame.org then you will know what i mean.

I think this would add to the 'reality' of the game just like in the show, you can have starget attacks and fleet attacks/battles.

Thats my 2 cents.

haha i was just thinking of ogame as you said it... but a game is a intellectual property... don't totally plagurized them please ^___^

i like the idea but since when in any scifi have motherships docked in a flagship?

Haven't you seen Independence Day?

lol - you didn't answer my question as to whether you have seen Independence Day - in that we had one HUGE, MASSIVE, GIGANTIC, LARGE BEAST of a mothership, which split into smaller, but still MASSIVE sub-motherships, each of which carried fleets of fighters.

and the irony that for all that overwhelming strenght, they didnt hav a simple antivirus program.
