| Summary | 0009432: Worm Hole Defense Ship | ||||
| Description | I remember a time when the AI had turrets. Back then when i sent my fleet though a worm hole it usually took a lot of losses. Worm holes today are too easy. The Worm Hole Defense Ship is a way to beef up the (for lack of more description and creativity after just woken up) defenses of a worm hole. It is an immobile ship that is like a mini fortress, and much easier to take down but not too easy. This ship will also emit tachion beams so there is not a need to seed a tachion guardian at every worm hole (I would prefer these be buffed and seeded at random guard posts like other guardians). THe WHDS counts as a spot for reinforcement in addition to or instead of the worm hole guard posts. Also, every time an AI planet gets a reinforcement it also replaces lost WHDS. This should bring back some challenge after clearing a worm hole the first time. As a final note, since the worm holes will become so dangerous the scouts will need a buff to be able to compensate. | ||||

Turrets were replaced by guardians. So what you'd want is more guardians camping the wormholes. |

Not precisely, guardians and other ships can be freed and they come to attack your worlds, I want a defense that stays on AI turf and cant be lured/kited around. Plus I would like renewable tachions, after you kill the tachion guardian scouting is next to simple. |
