I was wondering if I can somehow use military starbases close to planets and let them defend the planet. I figured that if the starbase is strong enough, they can stop the enemy dead in its tracks. Or at least cause the enemy to use up a lot of ships trying to take out my starbase.
I am playing Dread Lords. What I have done so far is to put a planetary defense on a planet. But the AI just sends in wave after wave of transports until they ware me down and take my world. What can I do to make a planet difficult to invade. I was hoping that I can put up defenses that can kill incoming transports and enemy ships. Can a military space station help? What else can help. I want to make a planet virtually impossible to invade

I find the Drengin Empire the hardest to play. When I do play them, I feel like I fall behind in tech and economy. Then the whole board seems to hate me. When I do go to war, the different faction gang up on me. If you like this faction, can you share ideas, tips, trick etc . . . that can make it easier to win with Drengin. Also, how do keep up with tech and economy as a Drengin?
I am playing Gav Civ Dread Lords II. I can play okay. But when it comes to a shooting war, my ships drop like flies. Case in point. I played a game where I researched all defensive tech. I ran out of stuff to research on the defense tech tree. I then created my ships with the latest defensive tech. When I went to war, I lost. What can I do to create ships that can beat the AI.
It seems that on the normal setting, war is inevitable? I have tried to develop a neutral alignment. I have tried to up my diplomacy. No matter what I do, the computer AI will attack. What can I do if anything to prevent war? I wanted to try two things. Remain neutral and up my tech for a technical victory. Or, stay at peace and win an influence game.
I have done this in other 4x games. I know that I can spy. What I wanted to do is do is support rebel movements, cause revolutions, undermine governments, commit acts of sabotage and frame other empires so that they go to war with each other. Is stuff like this possible? How? Here is why I ask. One of my most favorite games is when I played the Darlocks in MOO. I was in the corner of the galaxy. I then spied on everyone, and had frame
Thanks for the reply. I have problems with several areas. These are the most pressing. 1.) Economy. Sometimes I'll see the word "never." when I try to build stuff. How can I avoid this. 2.) I have trouble with combat. Sometimes I'll build ships that beats the pants of the enemy. Then a few turns later, my ships drop like flies. What can I do to build good ships. And win fights. 3.) I don't understand starbases. Why can't they prote
I am playing Galactic Civilization II Dreads Lords. I am having a difficult time with the game. I especially have a hard time with war. So, guys, can you share links and/or ideas?
