AI War Beta 6.012 "Darkened Sky, Altered Starship" Released!

thats odd - My game shows 20 x 800k (rounding because lazy) for minirams mk1, giving me 16m damage, should be nearly enough to destroy a bomber in about 50k metal...

On normal caps, epic style, this does go down to 20x400k. (i note autobombs do similar things)

This feels more like an imbalance in combat styles more than anything else - comments on intent by devs?

The bomber starship also moves 1/2 as fast on epic, giving you more time to kill it.

In general the combat styles are not finely balanced relative to each other, but internally have their own balance.

Epic probably favors durable units over less-durable.

Just a completely self-serving bump to two small-ish requests for the next version.

Can you give it the "prefer large targets" flag like the plasma siege does, so that way it does try to avoid overkill on the "weak" fleet ships?

Saw the changes to the Astro trains. Thanks.

However, can the tractor trains please be added to the list of "auto attacked" trains, so your units don't get dragged out into nowhere without any sort of effort to try to escape?

Widow trains too. (Though both need a huge health reduction for this to have any real effect)
