Alas, the bug has returned and I can't migrate my way out of it this time.

Fairly serious crash out on the development branch in the late game (I'm pretty sad I won't get to see this game end; it has been pretty interesting). I'm not sure how to attach files here; I think I've managed to submit a bug report. It looks similar to the stacktrace reported by PrivateHudson ...

Fusion Warheads enables Fusion Anti-Missiles even without researching Anti-Missiles. Is this intended?

The real surprise there is the production cost difference.

The main use of heavy weapons is in large engagements on slow ships, where you want to be able to focus your fire. Beam weapons lack the main capability of missiles - unlimited range! - that allows this. And without heavy mounts, it can be hard to keep big ships in range of the main target.

Having ...

I've found dedicated point defence is certainly viable against missile spam. Interceptors are also helpful against it. The heavier beam mounts are not a ton more damage - the range is the main difference.

Really lovely look to it. I really enjoy the distinctive styles of the races ships.

I do not mind the lack of direct interaction in battles. The idea is that ship design and flotilla layout is how you interact. I actually like this a lot for streamlining large battles.

In practice , fleet design and flotilla layout is often immaterial, particularly since the AI puts up a fight ...

Endless Space 2 is full of good ideas.

Becoming immediately discontent is much more thematic though!

Small changes, one at a time, are usually better.

Ships that engage with boarding should probably decloak! That seems the first thing to change.

Looks exciting!

The implication is that turbolasers are supposed to have a shield-piercing attribute. But I've done a lot of testing, and I can't find any evidence of this. Is this a bug, or is the description for ...

Ah, could be.

It would be good to give ion guns something. There isn't really a reason to use them right now.
