>It seems you also disabled the 10% probability for 1 point of permanent hab change. CA's now quite slow to develop new planets. If the initiall CoH would be lost early, that would be a serious hit for them.

The permanent hab change has been removed and the x2 terraform cost (more likely 40% extra since CA will probably take TT) means that they will prefer OAs. So OAs become both a positive and a negative.

>IMO too low armor for a main warship. Also, those combo slots are weird - the right(front) one can hold all weap types, the rear two slots only beams. What was your intention with that hull?

The ship does have 8 armour slots and armours have been revamped to make them lighter. Intention was to provide a hull between BB and Nubian. The rear slots are beam only. The front one can hold all weapons and (i think) elec. I didn't want to create a bigger better missile platform, but instead a possible beam counter to missile BBs.

>I can't find any difference(s). Where should I look?

Smart bomb is now 1.7% kill.

>... but without a jammer on it there seems to be no difference. OTOH with only 4 jammers-30 it has 95% jamming. That should help AR quite some!

Previously jamming on SB was reduced by 25%. Now the 25% is a bonus (with usual 95% cap).

>So basically when I meet MT I have a fair chance to get nothing else but tech and (crippled) ships. Why's that?

Because this is only a partial mod. There's much more work to be done on the MT. As an interim measure, I will update to disable MT completely while retaining other random events.

?Also I noticed lots of comet hits - much more than I got in usuall testbeds. Have you tinkered with that probability too?

Nope. Just random luck Wink

I think most substantial changes might be the ranges on Missiles and Torps. Though I was in two minds about that. But we will see what the first test game bears out...
