request sent, and thank you.

Hello, I am pretty new to the game, but I want to find an alliance. I can tell I am going to need some help, a few pointers in the right direction so to speak. I need an alliance that can do that for me. I think I am alright at the game. If you want to see if I am any good check out my first design in the design forum. I got a fair bit of help by the time it was done, but I did all the work my self. Now I just want to find a group of people that can help me get to a place where I am decent enough to be somewhat competitive at the game.

thank you for your time

Lol, I finally got enough to add one of these to my set up, and someone came threw, and took out my whole fleet. Now I am out of cash, and ships .

Ship is called big ship5

Good to know Good to know. After getting some tips in game my ship is looking a bit different. Although I might still tinker with it some more to get a little more abs out of it.

The new improved version, and I think my final design on this ship.

Space: 250,000
Attack: 8.632.856
Hit points: 20.425.615
Attack accuracy: 63 %
Absorb power: 46%

Total cost is: 41,250,040

Mobious- thank you. I was just tinkering with things, and this is what came out.

AFB- Thanks for the tip. I will look at that.

*edit*

Wow thank you AFB that saved me the 15 credits and added 1,601,099 health to the ship. .

okay here is a brake down of the costs.

Armor: 15
Computer: 1
Powercore: 3
Shield: 3
Special: 2
Weapon: 1

I was going for a cost of 1 on everything, but obviously I did not manage that. I figured that the hull of the ship should be the majority of your cost. As it is the only thing you can not optimize cost on, and the price tag is a big ticket for me; because I have very little in the way of cash right now.

Okay, that makes more sense then. , I am glad to know the design is not total crap. , it is going to be a bit expensive for me right now, as I am just now getting used to the economy of the game. I had noticed when running missions though that the battle ships the game started me with could be made way more effective, and where never dieing compared to the swarm ships that I got started with sucking all around. So I figured I would try my hand at something I could afford reasonably, but would server me better than the POS ships the game gives you. 

Is this better?

Space: 250.000
Attack: 6.750.771
Hit points: 15.471.859
Attack accuracy: 59 %
Absorb power: 31%

Total cost is: 41.250.025

It costs 3 more credits , but has 6,650,404 less attack, and 6,737,179 more health.

Is hp worth more than attack??

Why switch them around??

I do not mind doing it I am just curious as to why you want a higher hp. I do not entierly get the battle system, but with the missions I have been on I have never gotten enough damage done to me to even put a dent in the 8 million hp.

This is my first attempt at a ship design that can stand on its own. I do not have a good understanding of all the aspects of the design system yet so I was wondering if you guys could give me some feed back before I invested in one. It is not enormously over priced, but it is a quite a bit for me right now, and I would hate to find out that it will not do me any good. Any way here is what it looks like.

Space: 250.000
Attack: 13.401.175
Hit points: 8.734.680
Attack accuracy: 59 %
Absorb power: 31%

Total cost is: 41,250,025

Go easy on me this is my first try, if it totally sucks let me know.
