Nebulous Space Command

Does the AI cheat?

I know I'm new and all that, but still.....on the first map with "starter fleets" the AI is detecting me way before I detect him every single time no matter what I do. I've tried so many combinations of deployment and initial orders, and only ever one ship with active emissions.

I'm sure I just need more experience but I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong.

Perhaps a few squadrons of space SPDs will give the battleships something to worry about.

Holy crap - I used to follow this guy years ago - he used to set up and play these awesome vignettes in Arma - thanks for that and also a good read

Like a weird pc game whore I woke up this morning and thought I’d give battlefleet gothic 2 a bash because I really wanted to play big ass capital ships against each other - it didn’t go well - the game has departed my hard drive and yet here is nebulous still waiting to be played - so I’ll try some trial games tonight

Devlog #26: A Rag-Tag Fleet

So much happening with this game just haven’t got the time to do it justice yet

Devlog #29: The Strategic Level

It admittedly looks a bit more spreadsheet-y than I personally care for, but I'm still glad he's adding it.  The strategic/conquest mode should bring a whole new dimension to the game.

Did not know this was a thing - I promise this one is next on my list
