Never got very far

Submitted by Tilarium on Sat, 2007-04-14 12:56. Space Empires V General

I'll admit that I've never really gotten to far into the game so I wanted to ask something. One of the things I really liked about SE IV was the amount of differant ship/station/troop/etc types, with several having light, medium, and heavy varients. Does SE V capture this aspect in any way? And if so how do they? Thanks

Kyle

When you research the light ship hull tech you start with to level 5, you can research a bigger hull type, and so on up to "base ships" (in the demo version).
Similar, if you research fighters or troops to higher levels, you get medium and big variants.

You can enable all techs... This will give you an ability to play with the full tech tree.

But that is cheating the system. Earn the privelege to mighty ships of war streaking through the stars, laying waste to the very planets themselves. Pay the price to attain the wonders that grant you the power over the heavens, to forge new planets from the dust and gravel in space, new stars, and even worlds to encase the stars themselves.

When you go through the effort, it feels way better! Laughing out loud
