Caveat: I've lost an important battle in one game because in battlesim I got completely different result of a combat then in the game.
The main problem with Battlesim is it is working with maxed tech that makes costs (attractiveness) of ships quite different than in the game you are playing. To avoid it you have to make your own battlesim with the races you are playing against, and the tech levels you suspect they have.


Oh, that's rather disapointing. I've been creating designs on the basis that I thought the result was an absolute. I suppose that given the same circumstances it is, but re-creating a battlesim with the same tech levels everytime is rather laborious.

You know what we need, is someone clever enough to work out how to build an accurate battlesim whereby you can specify your own tech levels and hazard a guess at the opponents tech levels (thereby potentially altering the attractiveness of chaff compared to other ships). My guess would be that this can't be done without the source code though.
Is there anyone with ideas or knowledge of how to get around this problem ???

There's the Attractivenes Sheet, you should always input your designs into it, it gives the accurate attractiveness of all your designs. If it differs from the battle sim testbed than make a new sim.

I build a testbed for every almost every game I'm in, as soon as I know the PRT's and LRT's that matter, and trying to keep the tech levels as correct as possible (though that can be too much sometimes). Especially when I'm in team games where battle positions are another very important thing to check.
