The only thing that i can think of is the upgrade has more power so the missions that you are doing are harder. Title: Re: Compare these, when i upgrade i loose??? Post by: Lammalord on September 13, 2006, 10:29:24 PM ahh make it easier zerg, just make all the weighs an even 8.. thats what i do

Title: Re: Compare these, when i upgrade i loose??? Post by: ars68 on October 24, 2006, 03:44:59 PM a little side note here, was this before or after the missions were changed to have same reward depending on commander level?
if it was after, then no, more power should technically not help or hinder it, because the reward (and thus the difficulty, or at least it better :21:) will be the same. either way, ya, you will more then likely do better once you change all your weights to 8 or so, and transfer all that weight into the powercore, then use the extra power to further enhance your ship's systems.

I have found as your power increases ships that do just fine at one power dont prefrom as well at higher power levels without looses. I would suggest going with the cheaper design for the simple fact that when you loose them they dont cost as much to replace. But you should go ahead and build a completely new ship as your power grows.
