Overcloaking FYI

I was certain I had posted this information previously and thought I had put it in the SS Forum -
but, it's not there. So, in the interests of putting this somewhere easy to find I'm putting the info
here.

Overcloakers

As most players know, overcloakers require mass as well as cloaks. I am listing here maximum overcloakers
for the Galleon and Nubian hull for both SS and non-SS races including their total cloak units. I don't
need response posts about the 2 scanners - do what you want with your designs - these are simply the
maximum overcloaker designs possible.

Maximum Galleon Overcloaker

Non-SS, IS, SD              SS                          IS                         SD
709,800 cloak units         2,997,000 cloak units       785,120 cloak units        874,720 cloak Units

Trans Galaxtic Drive x 4    Trans Galactic Drive x 4    Trans Galaxtic Drive x 4   Trans Galaxtic Drive x 4
    OR Interspace 10 x 4        OR Interspace 10 x 4        OR Interspace 10 x 4       OR Interspace 10 x 4
4 x  Tritanium Armor        4 x  Tritanium Armor        4 x Tritanium Armor        4 x Tritanium Armor

                                                        2 x Speed Trap 20          2 x Speed Trap 50

Maximum Nubian Overcloaker
Non-SS, IS, SD              SS                         IS                         SD
3,345,720 cloak units       13,381,200 cloak units     5,113,080 cloak units      6,927,480 cloak units      

Trans Galaxtic Drive x 3    Trans Galactic Drive x 3   Trans Galaxtic Drive x 3   Trans Galactic Drive x 3
    OR Interspace 10 x 3        OR Interspace 10 x 3       OR Interspace 10 x 3       OR Interspace 10 x 3
15 x Tritanium Armor        15 x Tritanium Armor       18 x Speed Trap 20         18 x Speed Trap 50
21 x Super Stealth Cloak    21 x Ultra Stealth Cloak   18 x Super Stealth Cloak   18 x Super Stealth Cloak


To find out how cloaked your fleets will be, add up all the cloak units of all the cloaks in the fleet
and divide by the mass of the fleet. You need to end up with 750-800 cloak units per kt for 90% cloaking.

A note for those HE players since the Metamorph is better than the galleon for an overcloaker.

Maximum Metamorph Overcloaker
854,000 cloak units

Trans Galaxtic Drive x 3
OR Interspace 10 x 3
7 x Tritanium Armor
10 x Super Stealth Cloak

And, last, but not least, The WM Dreadnaught overcloaker
3,773,000 cloak units

Trans Galaxtic Drive x 5
OR Interspace 10 x 5
16 x Tritanium Armor
10 x Super Stealth Cloak
38 x Missiles (your choice) Smile


{updated to add IS & SD maximum designs}

Though we often ask how and why, we must also do to get the answers to the questions.
