Ambrosia Software Web Board: Human Cruisers - Ambrosia Software Web Board

I think one of the worst ships is the Human Cruiser.

Some times when I play scratching posts and me and the oppont are humans and then we duke it out in battel and each have olny about one or two week ships left(Usally Gunships) I go twords his or my own Planet and then he follows, now this is where I think I start winning, he emidatly builds a cruiser becauses hes in panic that he olny has one ship left, but what i like to do is just distract his ships long enough to build a Gunship get it over there and start wipping him, and a gunship with like 1/8th of its sheilds(I beleave) can still take down a stupid Human cruiser, with rapid magno and its turret it can easly rip though the little shield that the cruiser has, And i usally win.

And if it gets very bad and I die in the ship that I am distractiing him with( Witch hardly ever happens) I dont rush to build a cruiser unless I think it will really work I just die because it was a good game probebly and I think its not worth the Death.

And the human cruisers are so bad they have a slow Magno and a non-turreted laser cannon with short range. I think that the Human cruiser should not be priced at 5 it should be 4 or 3(Well maybe not 3 because that is how much the human fighter costs and it is really better then the fighter) becuase it is so… sucky.

What do you think is it worth building a Cruiser for Human? Is there really any use for a human cruiser? What are your other thoughts on the Human Cruiser or the Human rase in general?

You should never, ever, build either a humand cruiser or human fighter. The only ships worth building for combat are the Gunship and Carrier.

Nah, the only human ship worth building is the gunship, maybe another HVD if yours died.

With that said, I'd like to point out that while the Carrier and Cruiser are no match for the human gunship, that is simply because the human gunship is a very excellent ship. Human cruisers, while their magneto isn't that rapid, it's actually about twice as rapid as a fusion pulse gun, meaning approximately equal damage, it's just that it can't line up very often and so tends to get 50 damage shots in. The carrier works as a good wall, and fighters are annoying.

The HVD just isn't worth it. Your better off buying a Carrier (unless your immeaditly going to transfer control to it) becuase it can last in a firefight, where as the HVD will not last long and probably not score many kills.

Just say no to sex with pro-lifers.

I completely agree. I meant that if the HVD you start with dies, you can build a new one to transfer control to.
