I need help trying to destroy the Igadzra and Zidigar defense fleets!!! They're huge! Does anyone have any tips for me?
------------------
some of us have... atleast in EV not EV:O
tips: coffee, sugar, a fighter with lots of turrets n' armor, or a warship with lots of fighters... oh, and <b>TIME</b>. huge fleets = lots of time to kill 'em. also, capture a few iggy's or azdgari warships too - they help

how do i go about capturing igazdras and azdgari warships?
I find that some of the things from the original EV engine didn't fit in when the EVO storyline as brought in. Dominating the universe is one of them. Another thing is the way there's only one holovid program. If you can access UE news services from the Crescent, why was there no contact with aliens until now?

Dominate the universe? No thanks! I would much rather do something entertaining like watching paint dry.

Heh, I'm only planning on dominating all the pirate planets as a way of supplimenting my income. I concur on the watching paint dry thing, though. It takes too freaking long to dominate a planet to make it worth my time. Even dominating the four (relatively easy) pirate planets I've done so far has been absolutely stultifying.

Yes, I too have started dominating but since the Dominator plug is not working, it is taking forever. I tried dominating Earth but, get this, ONE HOUR of playing time later(after many breaks) I had still not defeated them. I think that it has an infinite number of ships. Anyways UE space is well on the way to being conquered.

Not infinite. I seem to recall it is somewhere upwards of 10,000 ships. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I remember in the origional EV, I tried to dominate Mars, using a cheat plug allowing me to have what ammounts to a super ship (the Neutronic Kestrel), six escorts, and I spent at least a fricken hour blasting away at the buggers, and they just kept coming.
I looked up the number in the resource templates, and it was something like 2500 ships! :eek:
I couldn't tell you what Earth is at now, but multiple thousands can be banked on. Basically, there are some planets that simply shouldn't be dominated, and Matt Burch makes it clear which ones those are by making it mind-numbingly tedious and frightfully hard at the same time to dominate them.
I have spent about 6 hours, and I have conquered Mavs, Yelts, Riomer, and I would have conquered Pariah, but I killed it instead. Want a really easy win? Try to conquer the station in the Final Adzgari mission(I forget the name). Its easy with the help of the enhanced fighters.

I conquered the whole galaxy, but it took FOREVER AND ERVER AND EVER, it was something about three days almost nonstop and into the night. and that was when i had the plasma siphon, 6 Igazras as escorts, and one upgraded as mine. afterward I had over 350 grand a day

I was messing around on that mission and I conquered the planet, but now the mission won't complete. I've tried coming back, re-destroying all the ships, landing and re-re-destroying all the ships, going back to Xarnes, and a few other things, but the mission keeps staying on the list. I think it might have to do with the possiblility of destroying the station (which hasn't happened) that they mentioned in the briefing.
I am using the Executor Mac emulator and I've had a similar problem with the Free Huron mission, so that might be part of the problem.
If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this or what's going on, tell me.
I am trying to dominate the universe in real life! HA HA HA HA HA.

As soon as you conquer it though, the mission string makes you destroy it :frown:

A.S.S Cuisine reporting for duty!
here is a non-plugin cheat which i have developed which has proven invaluable throughout my expanding dictatorship. get any ship that has a fighter bay. now here's comes the complicated part:
1. fill up yer bay then release all fighters (no you cannot buy more) 2. find another ship which has the same type of fighters you do 3. disable that ship as quickly as possible (UE carriers being the weakest of the bunch) before they can release all their fighters 4. plunder their AMMO. it will always have some type of fighters unless it was able to release all of their fighters because your weak *** couldnt disable the ship in time (make sure your fighter bay is always empty, or just ready to hold extra fighters) 5. repeat this process (yes it does take hella long, but it severely decreases planet-takeing-over time) until you have a helluva lotta fighters with you 5 1/2. now, im not sure wether or not this cheat is dependent on your mac memory, but i do know that on mine, i had so many fighter with me that the mac didnt have enough memory to launch an entire planet's defense fleet. ie- only five ships in entire defense fleet came out.also (for me) each planet was only able to send out one or two ships at a time
p.s. sometimes the planet wont acknowledge defeat, and when you demand tribute again after defeating teh defense fleet, so you will hafta conquer it again. i found this problem quite consistent with the Council
trust me guys and gals, this corner-cutter is way worth you time
