Avoid Dead Planets and Red Sectors -- that is where the Aliens live.

A question about stashing: Are treasure hunter rumors the only time your stash can be found? And say you have around 1000+ of a few different resources. Will they all be taken? Btw- Welcome starlandra  |

Btw- Welcome starlandra Seems a little bit off topic for this thread, but yes, that is the only Stash removing rumor and yes, every unit of every resource will be removed. |

Dang so its all or nothing? Will how much/what is stashed make a difference in the chance of it being found?

Sorry Cory. The conversation about setting up an area to operate made stashing come to mind.

The factors that influence Stash protection are the character class and the planet's cache rating.

so I managed to find aliens (also playing hard). I patrolled a number of dead planets with no success but I seem to always run into them after about 15 patrols in the dead planet CL-Othoggnacth (what a name) right by the independent planet "Roavin" (bottom left corner of map). Not really sure about what the coding says but this is where I always find aliens and since I have achieved all the awards on this difficulty, I will keep on hunting them until one eats my captains heart. I have the military officer the veteran and the bodyguard. I also carry 35 artifacts.
EDIT: And I'm a bounty hunter for my captain class.

Probable had something to do with the 1000 aliens that were trying to eat you.  After the TA challenge, I will be going to crazy for the unlocks also. |

Btw- Welcome starlandra Seems a little bit off topic for this thread, but yes, that is the only Stash removing rumor and yes, every unit of every resource will be removed. hold up! Toxic rumors have a 2% chance of decaying your stuff, alien rumors have a 3% chance of eating your stuff, solar wars have a 1% chance of blowing up your stuff ( or something like that). There are other rumours and conditions that give a very small chance of taking your stuff. But the treasure hunter fleet rumour is the one that has the greatest chance of taking your stuff, and is the condition that'll be responsible for taking your cache almost all the time. |

Just 1 question... if i had 10 life how did i go down to 0 in 8 turns!? I was L31 btw. That was the most advanced i have gotten in this game. You can't board a ship with 1000 crew, 40 hull and a Narvadian AI and have only 70 crew. It's suicide and I'm surprised you didn't die sooner. The best way to beat aliens is to invest in the extremes. If you're planning on being a boarder and beating aliens via boarding, get a ship that'll have at least 250 crew with upgrades ( battleship is the best) carry a bunch of weapons and have warrior at least 200% lv. If you're gonna be a gun bunny and beat aliens via gunning, have pilot at least 200% lv and have some tactics and get a quick ship with lots of engines and/ or guns and a big hull ( bigger hull is harder to board) and get pilot, engines, gun and/or board resistance upgrades. If your a torpedo maniac and you wanna beat aliens via torp, have very high stealth, lots of tactics, a FAST ship with lots of sails and torps and get torpedo and sail upgrades. Board strength = Warrior + Strength + Crew + Weapons + Pilot + Agility + Tactics + Intimidate + Upgrades + Officers (military, templar, bodyguard, veteran) + Engines Gun strength = Pilot + Agility + Tactics + Guns + Engines + Upgrades + Officers (pilot, veteran) + Board resistance (crew, hull, heavy bulkheads etc) Torp strength = Stealth + Speed + Tactics + Pilot + Sails + Upgrades + Veteran Note that the veteran only helps vs aliens. |
