Title: Blue Planet Advanced features?
Post by: mosshadow on January 23, 2015, 04:23:14 pm

I have some questions about the behind the scenes ship abilities. War in heaven has some lines that seem to imply that capital ships firepower actually changes throughout the missions along with their armor stats. For example I recall that there is plenty of chatter about targeting and defense grids so BP ships actually shoot faster or more accurately when supported by the ECM ships and other allied ships ? In addition there was one mission where an enemy ship commander starts saying that he doesnt have fuel to charge his hull plating so do some ships have a damage reduction ability?

In terms of story they do.

In terms of gameplay those things are actually scripted into the mission. If you just drop ships in FRED, those ships won't do any of that stuff by themselves.
