Thank you Dioxine and everyone who helped make this mod. I started playing about a month ago and been playing hours every day since. This is without a doubt one of the best games I ever played and it's a testament to how well it's designed that after so many hours in I still have almost no gameplay fatigue.

« on: September 05, 2018, 04:33:32 pm »After much diggin by ohartenstein23, they spawn on "ninja seeker" ships.If you don't mind, can you or ohartenstein23 point me to where in the rule files it says that? The rule for the ninja seeker does not list it as a possible drop. Also I started a new game on 99J6b and the mission isn't listed in the possible missions in the save. Shouldn't it be there or will it only appear after two years?
I never looked at the rules or saves before but I'm in year 4 and been playing for a while after the upgrade and never seen a prismatic shield or ninja ship yet. Since it's blocking the forcefields research now I wanted to make sure it's not a bug. For now I took my save back to 99J4.

Yes, shock and awe the invader scum.
Usually I don't like to bother with base defense so I build several flak cannons when they're unlocked, later to be replaced with armored vaults and luxury barracks. I don't know how they fare against things like cruisers and battleships but so far they easily vaporized whatever came (and wasn't blown up by the airforce).
Recently however I purposefully baited a guild crackdown to get a guildmaster and I did it like described above with barracks, vaults and kennels around the hangers and lift. I didn't chuck explosives into the hanger but I did send soviet style attack dogs with 3 primed hellerium grenades on them. The survivors were dispatched so ruthlessly by gals with blossoms and vibro axs that the guildmaster simply surrendered.
I am now trying to get the academy incompetents to take a break from having psychic orgies for two minutes to deliver me a provost but they couldn't find my base even after four waves of crackdown craft flying right above it. Oh well, I'll keep nuking science vessels until they try again.
