1001 ways to kill a Voinian Dreadnought...

Bad Temper and A_Legged_Trash_Can: that was stupid, both of you. You know full well that all the members of this board, myself included, hate when such things are done. I won't resort to calling names, as would some, but I will say this: when people start doing that, I (and, I'm sure, many others) feel the need to request bans.

I got a idea on how to destroy the dreadnought:
Let the UE ships fight the dreadnought.
Then...
Here's the part I'm wondering about: Can you use space mines to get
rid of the dreadnought?
And...
How many would you need?

I just use Defense pods. I get the maximum number of launchers, and sit on top of the dreadnought blasting it with turrets and pods. It goes down fast enough.

I must say, I'm a sucker for the cheating ways. I usually just get right up next to it and pummel it with the forklift. (Which, in 1.0.1 anyway, doesn't hurt me any but hurts him plenty)

Quite frankly, I don't think I've ever tried without the forklift before... (even in 1.0.0...)

While I'm here, does anyone think it would be interesting to have varying background textures available in the game? Like, you could have the normal starfield, a cloudy starfield for in a nebula, maybe some distant asteroids in an asteroid belt, or even ground textures for simulated atmospheric flight (all changeable by plugin makers, of course) Obviously, this is for a future upgrade, not 1.0.2. Hey, maybe even implement it in a sequel... (yet more wishful thinking)

(Insert witty remark here)

My tactic: "They'll try to kill him with a forklift..."
but seriously, I usually use a Miranu Gunship pumped up with speed and maneuvorability upgrades, with tons of Emalghia cannons. I use the SADs for the shields, and let the UE bums fight first.

what the hell kind of name is isgadzra anyway?, where did they come up with that?

It's Igadzra for the race, Igazra for the ship. By the way, it's an anagram of Azdgari, Zidagar, Gadzair. I don't know how they came up with it, ask matt burch.

Matt Burch only coded the game; Peter Cartwright made the EVO scenario.

best way to kill the dreadnought: get an igazra, get igazras for escorts, get a plasma shipon, all the sheild and engine upgrades, get LOTS of defense pods and launchers. buy 5 phase turrets and then use the monty python on the dreadnought while dropping defense pods out. then use plasma siphon to finish him off

i did by accepting a mission to destroy a voinian taskforce in that system, and while i was destroying tose pesky interceptors, the UE fleet destroyed the dreadnought! i was pretty surprised to see that thing disabled, and then destroyed.
