![]() ![]() I did a google sheet about ships, crew costs, trade potentials, DPS, etc. ![]() So, yeah, save the swarming for later where 1-2 trades = 1 ship. Ship combat takes place in orbit around systems. Both forms of combat are largely automated, but choices can be made at the start of combat that can have significant effects on the outcome. When one of them got blown up and I didn’t realize it and I saved the game. Combat in Endless Space 2 is split into two parts: ship combat, taking place between fleets in orbit around systems, and ground combat, taking place between soldiers on a planets surface. The way that I had it set up, each berserker was about 1.5million. Here’s something NOT to do: Do not run with a SR-71 + 6 berserkers. I figure if I have 20 ships with missiles, any opposition will get 20 missiles at a time. As soon as I get there, I’m going to start buying a buttload of small fighters, and set myself up to have my own swarm. Next up – I plan to get up to maybe 3 large ships (Behemoths) so I can earn > $500k per transaction. At this point, missions / jobs don’t compare. Then, you get to maybe 10million in net worth or so – you can get a really big ship, where the profit from a meager +100 credit/ton times 500tons of cargo gives you a nice $50k, in 4 hops. You can earn maybe 1 million per transit of the system using a … it looks like an SR71 blackbird, crew of 3? Phoenix? Beware of keeping your ship small enough so you don’t pay too much overhead in crew. Then as you get slightly larger ships, you have the ability to take multiple jobs to multiple sectors and really explore. There’s no Buy/Sell penalty you can go back. Sell and upgrade to a newer ship whenever you can. Pay of as much of the mortgage early as possible – I would pay off any extra bringing my prudent reserve down to 50k. Run away from pirates! If you die, you restart at the last planet you were at. Only take jobs that I could do with a positive if I had any cargo space left, look to which system I was going to, figure out Trade differences, and buy/sell to squeeze a few more cents out. I don’t have the time right now (15 minutes) to go into the detail details, but, I’ll throw this out if you’re interested in the game – my evolution playing the game.įirst Starting Out, with a Mortgage, I had to count the hops + calculate loan payments. For more information, please visit the website or read the player's manual.Lately, I’ve been playing a game called Endless Sky. Over time, the game universe will expand as contributors add new missions, story lines, alien species, places to explore, sound effects, and artwork. Endless Sky is free, open source, and cross platform (Windows, Mac, and Linux). ![]() A plugin system allows anyone with a text editor and a paint program to create new ships, weapons, or missions, and the galaxy editor can be used to add new star systems and planets. You can choose between more than fifty ships and several hundred ship upgrades. The galaxy contains hundreds of star systems and planets, and several alien species with their own unique technologies. The main story line takes about 8-16 hours to play through. Take sides in a civil war, or ignore the story line and just enjoy exploring the galaxy and blasting pirates. Earn money by carrying passengers or cargo, escorting convoys, bounty hunting, or plundering and capturing enemy ships. Work your way up from a relatively wimpy shuttle, cargo ship, or fighter, to a highly upgraded and customized flagship or to a massive fleet of warships or freighters. Endless Sky is a 2D space trading and combat game inspired by the classic Escape Velocity series.
