What is the defence of Alien Goo? What determines whether you kill it or not when it is attacked?

Adam

nothing as far as i can tell... just like beacons... ive had predators unable to kill a beacon of mine before and just last night my beacon was killed by a probe and then i was killed by a slime blob... so ya... shit happens.. its randomocity on when it happens...

Dodger

So, is it just totally random? Let's see what matlu has to say....

matlu

goo has defence 6

Quotemy beacon was killed by a probe
beacons have defence 5. Probe can kill it when very lucky

Dodger

Thanks matlu. Do turrets also have defence 5? Why arn't these stats written on the right in game?

matlu

QuoteThanks matlu. Do turrets also have defence 5?
gun turrets have defence 6

QuoteWhy arn't these stats written on the right in game?
because it requires some additional programming :)

anima

How about the strength of turrets?

matlu


anima

Ok. I have always considered turrets rather pointless. They are called gun turrets, however, they have no range and are quite weak. The only thing they do is inhibit movement.

matlu

I'm afraid they would become too strong with higher strength

Bakster

Wow, I once killed a tank and a hovership with turrets on the same turn. Got me out of a pickle, now I realise how lucky I was!

Adam

theyre great for strategy sometimes... other times theyre just a waste...

Dodger

Leave it how it is.
If it isn't broken, don't fix it.
Thanks for the info Matlu...

Does Turret have a chance of killing a mech warrior?

Adam

yeah... a probe has a chance of killing mech warrior...
