Yet another game goes down in flames due to Star Swarm. Running into them early is just game over for me every time.
I just dont see how you can viably fight the damn things early game. Anyone manage to stop them early?
Tried missiles yet?
Sure have. Early on, the missile velocity is pretty low, and swarm have a lot of energy weapons. I fired the entire complement of missiles on 6 destroyers and 2 cruisers at them and achieved zero hits. All were intercepted.
To my earlier post, early game, I have not found anything that is really viable in fighting them effectively. Massed railgun fire does damage to them, but you will find that exchanging broadsides with them will have your ships melting, literally!
