New Ship: Battlecruiser's Discussion

its still in the air at the mo but i got this info from my alliance mates in uni 9 and 23... just for info

to all fleeters out there,
it came to my attention that probably this week we will have a new ship in ogame and some changes to rf of hf and cr against lf. the new ship will be counter-bs.
i suggest the freezing of all fleet production for some days until all the new changes are applied into the software.
i give 90% probability to my insider :p
it's just a hint don't blame me if nothing happens..

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

some infos about the new counter-bs ship
RapidFire+
probe 5
sats 5
sc 3

cr 5
bs 10

RapidFire -
Dest. 2
Deatstar 15

shield 400
attack 500
cargo 750
speed 8000
fuel 250

and it will need:
hyper tech 5

the cost will be around 30k metal - 40k crys - 15k deut.

dont know if you guys want to confirm this from some of the GO's here

This sounds pretty interesting... might change completely the balance of the game.

Yes Marko, and I will wait an build my mines to meet this new ship before I start my Fleet rebuild

LOl yes a new ship! it wil defently change the game...good thing I have 15mil spare resources waiting to be built! once..im outta v-mode that is.

Question is, would this new ship be implemented in New Universes, or all of them?

And it looks alright.

It's being called the Interceptor and it should go into all universes. Just like the bomber did

cant wait to see that thing in action

So is anyone dreading the aspect of major fleet restructuring due to the implementation of the new...

*drumroll*

"BattleCruiser" <---Terrible name!

"BattleCruiser" <---Terrible name!

couldnt agree more...

what happned to the "The Intercepter"... that would have sounded alot better:d

Battlecruiser (1 available) The Battlecruiser is highly specialized in the interception of hostile fleets. Requirements: Metal: 30.000 Crystal: 40.000 Deuterium: 15.000 Construction Time: 1m 52s

you have nanite level 6!?

you have nanite level 6!?

In uni7 yes. I built the BC there.
I have weapon 13 building here so I can't build BC yet. Here i have a damned lev 2 nanite and it takes 25 days to rebuild my wrecked fleet...

only 2!? even i have 3 ^_^

Yep. That's what happens when you play sloppy for 3-4 months. I have a lev 3 building in G7 and lev 4 will follow there.
But until then I'll rebuild the fleet with the lev 2 nanite in g1.
(i have lev 3 nanite in uni23... )

so it obvious this ship will change how people will build fleets but what kind of ratios are you guys thinking?

i have played around with some fleet ratio and the one i think is a good all around fleet would be

15 LF / 5 HF / 3 CR / 1 BS / 2 BC
or
15 LF / 5 HF / 5 CR / 2 BS / 2 BC

what are your thoughts

i added more lf to my old ratio to comensate for the RF change to cru and because they mess up the BC RF vs BS, CR and HF. i also kept BS around because of their high fire power. still not sure about the # of crusiers because im concerned that many people will abondon lf because of the RF increase (personally i think this is a bad idea) and adding too many unneeded cru could increase the chance of BC fireing again (RF) so im going to wait to make a direct decision till i see what other people do with their fleets.

any one elses thoughts
