How would you like me to set up defeat conditions? Until one side hits 0, or try to add a "rout" condition.

I think a rout condition could work, though in this case any stragglers/runaways would be run down and destroyed if they still potentially could pose a threat. Is there any way to take into account the fact that ships can't fight nearly as well if they're damaged?

Actually, I forgot the Amphibibots. Sorry, Ace! The bomber total is about 1724 per fleet, and 125 fighters per fleet. Everyone forgets the Amphibibots :n And the Drakodominatus Tyranny is apparently oblivious to the Amphibibots' presence. |

Anyways, can I go ahead and make that thread? |

So I ran a simple autoresolve program I created. Simply put, every round it destroys a small amount of the enemy fleet based on random numbers and how many ships you have remaining. (In exact values: it removes 0.05% to 0.2% of your remaining ships from the enemy fleet, keeping decimals.) This continues until one fleet is destroyed, "flees" or "routs".
In all my simulations the Etzan (11,000) vs Fleet B (2,250) usually ends in 10700-10800 vs whatever survives of the Miperiors. Note that this doesn't have to be near zero. I got this range even with Miperiors escaping with 25% of the fleet left, though with the Tarkan's faster warp running is not an option, only scattered routing units and surrendered vessels would probably survive.

Also, gmfk, I'm just putting this out there right now:
If the Tarkans manage to win and take over the Miperiors Empire, I assure you it will not be permanent. If that happens, we'll find some cool, badass, and really interesting way for the Miperiors to reclaim their empire. You'd also have a lot of say on the occupation, and I'd need to consult you on practically everything. Are you fine with this? If not, that's perfectly fine, we can find a way to make it work.

Lol, I understand  I said "destroyed" that one time because we're kind of stuck between a wall and a hard place this time. At least we're less doomed than the Aeons were that one time  |

I suppose the autoresolve worked alright. Did Tek say that 25% of Mip/Amp ships survived  |

No, the entire fleet would be destroyed/disbanded because the Tarkans can outrun the Miperiors and Amphibibots.

Essentially what I was saying is that no matter how much of the Miperior ships do survive (and don' get too optimistic) the outcome won't change by much.
Long story short: The Miperiors get their butts kicked no matter what, with depressingly low Tarkan casulties.

No, I know, it's that Tek's original post confused me on that part. On a sidenote,  |

Tek... God damnit, nearly all of our assumptions about the alcubierre drive were wrong... Talk on IRC asap?

Tek... God damnit, nearly all of our assumptions about the alcubierre drive were wrong... Talk on IRC asap? So here's the summary: (my tablet died and I lostthe convo, so sorry if I missed something) - Each ship is in its own bubble, independent of each other. - Weapons fire won't stay in warp unless it has a warp drive - In other words, warp battles don't work the way we were doing them. In reality warp combat isn't very easy (nor are warp dive missiles cheap), we'll make things a bit easier for you, but it'll still be a bit more complex. - Warp combat is only possible at very close range when you can merge bubbles - Beyond that ships will be like very long range artillery, and limited to warp-equipped weaponry, which will basically be missiles. - Fighters and bombers will still work using mini warp drives, but range is also quite limited - While warp bubbles are merged all systems will function as normal - All tje intricacies of warp merging, etc will be ignored for your sakes. That'll be Starship Piloting 101's job. |

Yeah... Either we can go back, make the necessary changes to the battle and to our strategies, invent a new FTL system similar to the one we've been using, or summarize/autoresolve this and remember for next time.
