Can someone help out a ?Newb??
FireNBrimstone
I just downloaded this MOD and so far I?m loving the concept and as a result am desperately trying to ?get? the MOD, but I can?t seem to wrap my mind around what the various ships are designed to do. Basically what I?m looking for is a ?Good Against,? ?Bad Against? blurb like the original game provided, and hopeful a short bulb about what effect they actually have on the battle, for all the ships (for either or both sides) so I know what the heck I?m supposed to be doing with them.

Something like:

Assault Craft (Vagyr)
Intended Use:
Anti-Fighter Fighter
Bad Against: Coverts and Anti-Fighter Weapons (I think)
Actual Effect on Game: Obsolete, so not much, they have numbers though so they can screen more powerful fighter and bombers from anti-fighter weapons with their lives.

(Disclaimer, the above may not be true, like I said I just started!)

So can a kind souls (or two or thee or more) here help me out!

You have some information available ingame by looking at the ship descriptions in the Build menu. But not enough...?

Three things in addition to what Homy said:

- PDS gets rid of the rock-paper-scissor gameplay, so the good vs this ship class or bad vs this ship class is not very adapted; you must think outside the original HW2 box.

- Take a look at the Ship roles article on this site.

- I am close to finishing the new UI for 7.2/7.3 including basic tips about game play and ship roles and FAQs. So the survival kit will be packed with future versions. Should be done by Saturday.
