Default Re: Things I would like to see in the next Version(s)...

Guys, I know about the self destruct in regards to boarding, However, I did not know that if you say had a ship out of supply, not at a shipyard, etc, that the scrap/retrofit button could be used to destroy a ship, I knew it could be used on mines but I apoligize for my lack of knowledge in this particular area, I have been playing this game for quite awhile and I still learn some basics from some of you. I am not talking gold Version but 1.49. I have not played the demo as I was waiting to be surprised when it comes out.
Mottlee - I therefore stand corrected in this request and yes newbies do ask questions of the veterans who else would you ask? That's how we learn

I have gone back and tried the self destruct and yes it does indeed work as long as you have it on board the ship and I thank everyone for this info.
I've never used this componet as the majority of my games are against the AI which does not use boarding troops, at least not that I have seen so far, and in my Hot Set games we just like to bash each other's ships and none of us have ever really used it. I once again apoligize and shall delete my prior post

Sorry, mac. You've been here for ages, and I never suspected that you might have just never used the SDD...

Guys, no offense was taken, were all friends here and I do have tendancy to say some dumb things without proper explanation, I just never used it because in my style, for myself only, I just feel that if I used it against the AI, that I would have a slight advantage, so never gave it a thought that you could possibly destroy a ship with it and tks to you I have obtained new knowledge that I plan to use in an up coming PBW game sometime this year against a number of those on this forum, can't say to much, my upcoming opponets are probably reading this.
