I have no experience, so i have to guess first, but i think even with experience you have problems with not knowing neighbours skills, speed of expansion, hostility,..., so there's a uncertainity on where borders will be in 10 years. But if i intend to cover core of empire in STs i prefer to start laying soon, because STs are not laid that fast.
|
If it all was simple then noone would play stars like me ... over decade and still see some fun in it. Why not plan things ahead? For example if your plan is building fields with 80 ly radiuses you can easily see where you need other one to cover all?
Quote: | Except i think that entire empire should be at least covered by one mine type, so scanning for cloackers happens and nobody can go in w10.
|
You were asking particularily about laying normals exactly on each planet to detonate chaff. Your remark is correct but has nothing to do with that question. ![Wink](images/smiley_icons/icon_wink.gif)
Quote: | There's never a real use for laying lots and lots of mines in few fields? Because just for mine laying speed a full packed super layer is more cost efficient than minis.
|
Cost efficent only if we leave non-minelayer slots on it empty and use QJ5 engine?
Quote: |
You do not use all ship slots to avoid ending up with few big fields?
Damn, i thought it was mainly covering as much squareLY as possible with mines and only second thought goes to field sizes.
|
Too large fields need ungodly efforts to keep them up. SD will drain his economy to manage that all his empire is covered only with 4 minefields. Now check the docks... one got 512 minefields.... so if you use 50 of them to cover your empire you still have 450 left to fight on border.
