OK, I made these designs for my pending supership. Comments are appreciated! Also, special thanks to A^Misses^Idiot for help. If these upgrades are horrible, don't blame him, him gave me a solid start, I just suck at this  :6:. So here are my FIRST upgrades!

Custom Armour 2  w:13  $:16.900  hp:1000

comp:ipcomp1   w:13  $:21.500  energy:2500  ACU Bonus:+4  DEF Bonus:+3%

powercore:ippc1     w:36367  $:1.146.200  energy gen:15000000

shield:ipshe1  w:5  $:27.000  abs:+11%  energy:2100

special:ipspe1  w:6  $:31.286  energy:700  DEF Bonus:+3%  Defence:0  Hitpoints:+1000

weapon:ipwea1  w:5  $:32.210  energy:1700  Attack:1000  ACU:30%  SP:0%  AP:0%   

I now realize that everything but the powercore is aimed more at the average upgrade/ hull. 
Thanks,

ok im gonna give you few veteran tips ok.. i might get in trouble. but oh well.. lol.


first-- no armour.
never settle for a system that costs more than 10 credits.
take cost ships you want and devide it by 165 because that is how much each space cost for the hull.. to for a 10 mill ship you take 10,000,000 / 165 = 60,606. there are more numbers after the decimal but just leave those out.
now you are gonna have 4-5 computers, 5-7 shields, one powercore , one special and one weapon.
as a rule i use 1 space for my weapon and 10 space for my special, and 8 space for shields and computers. also if your not useing swarmers,, there is no need to add defence.
so spend some time on that and show me what you come up with.. ill check back in a day or 2 to check on your progress.

ok, thanks mate, will try out the tips, and by 10 creds, do you mean 10.000? :14:

nah he meant 10.. you can always work with the stats to get it real cheap

eh, that's like nothing :P ok, i'll try. so it's a lot less than the generic weapon...

ok, found a weapon for 7 creds

STaTS:
Name: nuweapon
Weight: 1         

$: 7

Weight:60

Attack: 1704

ACU: 4%    

SP: 0%

the only tip im giving you is a missus idiot is a her not a him the clue is on the name :))

your words

by the way Drackin is a Teufel Hunden commander and at one time the 2nd in command of the Teufel Hunden.  the Tefeul Hunden make some of the best ships in the game.  Even the worst Teufel Hunden designer is 100% better ship designer than most other ship designers.

wow, great to have a bunch of masters reply. I edited my last post, I found a marginally ok weapon for 7 credits, took like half an hour to make!  :sweat :sweat

this is a link to the Teufel Hunden help site.  you might find more information there on ship building. it is still under construction but the basic formulas are there.

good to see you back frank

OK here are the specs for weight for my systems which i use on my ships. Please Note: no Marines System and no Armour System. They are a waste of time.

Weapon Weight: 1
Special Weight: 8
Shield Weight: 8
Computer Weight: 8
Powercore: The remaining space of your ship once you have made all the systems you want

ALL of the above systems should cost no more than 1 to 10 creds each.

For Example:
You make a ship of 1.000.000 space with 1 weapon (weight: 1), 1 special (weight: 8), 4 shields (combined weight: 32 (4 shields at 8 space each) you can have more shields if you like but after 4 its pretty pointless) and 1 computer (weight: 8 (you can have 2 if you want to really boost your accuracy)) which is a total of (1+8+32+8) 49 weight for all the systems. You now take 49 off of your total ship space (1.000.000 - 49 = 999.951) and you use 999.951 weight on your POWERCORE to get as much energy as possible to put towards your systems.

Ship Space: 1.000.000
Weapon weight: 1
Shields weight: 32
Special weight: 8
Computers weight: 8
Powercore weight: 999.951

As far as weight goes these are the best weights to use for each system.

Hope that helps a bit.... respeckta  :19:

wow... you never need to have left over space or energy..  and like the other guys posted.. your powercore should be most of your weight.. like 99% then shields and all that other stuff should be 8 weight most people use 1 weight for their weapon.. and 6-8 for shields

Um, is this a bad thing that I need to change, or is it just abnormal :P?

haha a bad thing..
okay say your space ship is 1500.. which is a very small ship... you want to end up having 0 space left and 0 eng left.. your powercore should be no less than around 1350 weight.. depending on how many systems your putting on.. im not great at designing small ships... but when you have left over space and energy its just wasted cred

my guns is Weight 60000 but at accuracy 71 % and Attack 11391099 i think it works if i can use it in numbers of 20+.

ok, actually, I was thinking about that weight, BUT I was under the impression that I needed to aim for half the weight of the ship  :confused:, so I'll try out all these new designs right now, and improvise later then.

Weapon weight should be 10 for better efficiency.

wow... dude you need some one on one help lol..just remember to use like 3 shields and like 2 comps the the weapon and the speacial for that size ship.. so now thats 51 space in those systems. now ALLLLLL of the rest of your space should be in the powercore... (make your powercore first)

just to confuse you more - i design weapons(combat wasp launchers) with weights from 850 to 100000 on ships and get +5% acc over a comparable energy 10 weight weapon for the same 3 credits. but thats just my personal thing. using a 1 or 8 or 10 weight is easier. i just like pushing out that extra 5%. i discovered it by modifying an existing weapon and found by increasing the weight i got more acc. and you'll notice that just 1% acc increases cost by millions once you pass the optimum.

haha losted your going to make there little brians explode

How do I get my swarm bonus?

buy as many ships as it takes until the stats stop going up then you know you have reached the max

I have about 1000 in each and there is no swarm bonus tho. Does it just need to be really high?

it depends on the size of the hull if it is small i.e.20 space you need more ships than a 1mill space hull

so if you buy more you should get the swarm bonus

k, thanks my hull size i think is like 23

to be honest .. swarmers are not as effective as they used to be.. just make a bigger ship and buy just one of them and keep like 4 fleet of that one ship. plus doing that will allow you to do higher % misisons without losses

kk thanks for the info, so about a 30-60 mill ship or hier with teh beast upgrades.... oh Drackin! I beet tchew! finally yes!
