Reply to Fans vs Dev Match #3 [Frosthaven Map]: Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation in Escalation Dev Journals AshesoftheSingularity Forums

Frigates are good early but they can get countered by large amounts of dedicated anti-frigate units such as Zeus/Avenger/Drone Hive, not to mention Orbitals. Frigates don't scale well into the late game, and that's fine, players are supposed to be teching up and getting more advanced units. Though, frigates remain a harassment option due to fast movement speed and high damage vs buildings for their cost. But if your opponent lacks any anti-frigate unit, then going for them is alway

Reply to Juggernaut Unit Profiles in Escalation Dev Journals AshesoftheSingularity Forums

[quote who="igncom1" reply="1" id="3688196"] The nest is such an effective one unit army that it's mental. Units like Athenas don't target it on the attack move and often get stuck trying to kill the frigates and other escorts before trying to fire on the nest it's self. Attack moves often leave armies stuck trying to kill the rapidly re-spawning swarm that they forget to shoot at the nest, often requiring a manual command to focus her down.

Juggernaut Unit Profiles in Escalation Dev Journals AshesoftheSingularity Forums

Juggernaut Unit Profiles While Juggernauts are late game killing machines, we want them to maintain strengths and weaknesses so they aren't unstoppable and that investing in specific Juggernauts is a deliberate strategic consideration. Here's some info about the new Juggernauts and how they will fit in with our existing ones. Substrate Nes

Hey nice suggestions, and glad you like the game. I have already thought about most of those and would be keen to get them in. I always thought it was weird you had to manually select either Metal or Radioactives extractor. Merging those together so it turns into whichever extractor depending on which type of Deposit would not only make it less fiddly an easier for new players, but also free up UI space. Like many other things, my only response is "It's on the list" as I have no id

[quote who="RomeoReject" reply="13" id="3687370"] When the PHC can instantly reinforce and constantly heal all damage, [/quote] Are you referring to the Charon for teleporting reinforcements? Substrate can do that as well with the Nano Transport Orbital. And Substrate can also heal damage with the Caregivers.

[quote who="igncom1" reply="14" id="3687372"] To be fair, the PHC are kinda set up to be late game steamrollers with their refineries and the like. [/quote] Substrate have Harvesters and Overcharge which stack extremely well together. I fail to see how Refinerines are better than Harvesters which would make PHC stronger. They provide more of a bonus, but it's offset by cheaper Harvesters and ability to swap between Rads and Metal, on top of the crazy Overcharge synnergy.

[quote who="Bannereus" reply="2" id="3687246"] I'm OK with some of the Dreadnoughts leading the armies, but some of them don't do well in the lead position, specifically the Overmind, Nest of the Queen & Leonidas (Cronus too, but I believe it kept its rearward position?). They attract way too much damage (especially since most heavy weapons prioritize T4/T3 units), and have enough range to be perfectly effective from the rear position. Also, the units that default to
