lamination != lamentation

Another hidden fact:
Light carriers can carry the same size weapons as light cruisers.

And another hidden fact:
SEIV is a tool used by extraterrestial governments to recruit stellar Empire leaders.

And another hidden fact:
Tachyon sensors can sense what is in the next starsystem over.

And if you get the message from an AI "Your growth is astonishing!" that means you are sitting too close to the screen and bump on your face is growing from the radiation.

If you are talking about mounts, that would be battleships, as they can use heavy mounts. Rather gamey tactic if you ask me though...

And another hidden fact:
Tachyon sensors can sense what is in the next starsystem over.

I hope that was just a joke, as it isn't true.

OOPs I must have misheard.
A friend told me this. In a conversation on sensors in SEIV I pointed out that sensors were virtually the same except Hyperoptics as they were the cheapest and quickest to get to.

Hidden fact about SEIV:
The defender almost always shoots first at a warp point. And I think it may be always.

Why is it hidden Everebody knows that

*sigh*
I am sorry my 'humor' is running away with me on this thread. I am giving some real tips mixed with some not so real tips. Many experienced SEIV players laugh and say that's not hidden. And I bet some new players reading this thread are saying "wow!" or "Cool!" for example I know having a good climate on a planet increases reproduction. But I still ignore the production benifit. Also maximizing your population as quickly as possible on a planet by moving them from another planet also increases production rapidly.(don't depopulate your home planet just use the excess)

another hidden fact is One Talisman in a stack of weapons platforms, satilites, causes ALL weapons to not miss. The Stack effect also goes with regular sensors build 5 WP's and only one need have combat sensors or ECM for the whole group to have thos benifits. Also this works with fighters.

Climate only affects reproduction rates, not production or happiness or anything else.
