Holo training deathmatch

[Remfer]

i think there should be new ships just for the simulator like simulator-swarmer or simulator-power or something and u battle with already pre-uploaded simulated ships to test the outcome.  of course the ships would be in a variety of powers and ranges...but just having two people simulate a battle...if the defender loses then the attacker would just attack in the game

[TheMerchant]

to me the point of this is so you can scout some one see there ships then use the simulator to devise a plan to do some damage which id like

[BOS]

The fact is that both person must agree on the simulator so if you where scouted by that guy you should be stupid to accept the simulator 

[Aurelian]

How about make it so you can only have the simulated battle against someone in your alliance?

[BOS]

That wouldn't be fun i mean i would simulate aginst Light and the crew i want to kick lama's but in the simulator 

[Hellsword]

yeah this would be pretty coool ive seen something almost exactly liek this on another game i play (you challenge som1, they accept, the ships fight it out, you dont lose or gain anything) and it works fine there, i dont see how it would not work on SO... to make it a little more interesting yo umight wanna include a win/loss record in the battle theater just for fun ;)

and as I see ppl on SO the just for fun will not work ... - I am afraid :-/

how about this, which is a LOT easier, and probably more doable to:

you have an area with 10 slots on the left side, 10 on the right, and on each slot, you may pick 1 ship out of your own current designs (or all designs if gold) for each slot, then possibly a couple battle related skills at the bottom for each side, and hit start

the comp then goes to a 'battle' using the left side as the attacking force, using it's skills and bonuses, going against the right side...

a little work, and probably a little more work to use it, but I could see that being used even more
and would also be an even greater scouting tool, because if you have gold, all you need do is 'scout' the opposition for his ships, plug in those ships to the simulator, then just keep retrying till you know what you need to beat them

as a side note, I don't think this should include marines...  but that's up to you guys, just I don't see the point with marines, unless more gets added to marines.

There we go thats exactly what i was going for, except ars said it better

to me the point of this is so you can scout some one see there ships then use the simulator to devise a plan to do some damage which id like

see kinda like what i said

[lostedchylde]

  how about a simulator where you could match your own fleets against each other without losing them. you wouldn't be scouting other players but you could test old vs. new / big vs. small / many vs. few etc....
