What do you think of my designs?
« on: January 11, 2017, 11:13:57 AM »
As a result, I based my designs on the sharing of tasks, to limit the tonnage to the maximum, for the moment, it is a rapid intervention force and patrol.  For now, I can't build bigger vessels without it being ineffective and a loss of money.  and i forget its my 2nd generation of warship frigate , i can easily beat the precursors with this designs at least those I met

-1 frigate leader

Apache; Can't defend itself.
Achilles; More guns of a smaller size may benefit you more for this design. Might also want to add some AMMs in either reduced size or box launchers.
Pegasus; May be better to have more launchers, but reduced size.

Please put your future designs in code brackets [code ] [/code ] (no spaces in the []) as it makes things easier to see.

I'm a bit confused where all your tonnage is going. The Pegasus is a 15,000 ton ship with 2500 tons of engine and maybe 1500 tons of armament (undergunned and underengined compared to most designs), 2600 tons of engineering spaces,and another 2000 tons of fuel.    At your tech level the thick armor shouldn't be prohibitive. Are you using size 1/10HTK magazines or something? 

For reference, a common 9000-ton  Precursor ship in my games mounts 7 size-4 launchers with deeper magazines.

Also, it may help you control maintenance costs if you make an engine without thermal signature reduction.  TH reduction is valuable in scout ships, but it balloons the costs of engines to insane levels - they become enormous maintenance hogs.

Well that's mean , i need to rewrite my designs and for the Apache ,and even if i add defence to the ship and kip it at 15k t , he can't really effectivly defend him self , he stay always with the task group , even if the task group need to split , i left one Achilles to defend it , so more small turret/guns. Actually , 4 sized missile its the much effective smaller anti-ship missile , i take advice from the forum and for a anti-ship missile at least 3-5 sized missile, that's what i read. I don't use AMM for RP raisons and to be more effective, i dedicate my ordonance factories to build more anti-ship missile.
And , euh... i don't really know what to do , (undergunned , yes i agree) but underengined , 50 sized engine for better speed , nah? Does a 30 or 40 sized missile is more effective ?

As posted above your designs have way too small an actual mission package. 
Unless for some reason they need to operate ridiculously far out, there is really no reason why the range, but more importantly maintenance life and deployment time need be so large.   I find it unlikely these ships will ever need to be on station for 3 years at a time and an 8 year maintenance life is pretty high.   You will probably be updating these ships before they even need overhaul.   If additional fuel and MSP are needed, they can always be placed on a fleet support. 

Additionally you have almost as much tonnage in fuel as in engines.   Rejigging to use more engines and tweaking your power ratios could give you the same range and speed for less tonnage i am sure. 

The missile launch frigate is the worst offender.   Firing 3 missiles at a time it is unlikely to penetrate missile defences.   

My advice would be to free up space on your leader and then mount your active sensors on that.   You can put a small backup on your other ships for redundancy.   Then use that space on your other ships to add more weapon systems.   I would recommend dropping your launchers down to using 50 or 25% size reduction to help pierce PD fire, however if the enemy has long range AMMs then this could be counter productive due to the reduced rate of sustained fire.   You should really be aiming for a lot more launchers though. 

I dont mean this as flame in any way, just trying to help you learn. 
-Graham

Edit- You said size 50 engine, are you implying you don't already have a size 50 engine? on a 15000t ship 2500t of engine is still pretty small.

Thanks that's very good explained, as soon as my game is fixed , i'm gonna update my designs , and yes 50 HS = 2500t , the biggest size that a engine could  have , i think. And as the game start i always use 50 sized engine for both commercial and military ships.
EDIT : So do i need to split my engine ? like 2 of 25 sized engine ?

Look at it this way, you should be aiming for ~33% of the ship's tonnage as engine. For 15k tons, that is 5000 tons of engine (2 50HS engines). Not only are they more efficient, being bigger, but you can scale down the power modifier to increase efficiency more without impacting speed as much. And what I meant for reduced size launchers is scaling the launcher size, not the missile size. You see the box with the 25% reduction, 33% reduction, etc? That is what I mean. Sure they may fire slower, but having a larger initial punch pays out quicker in engagements.

A spot where you seem to be bleeding tonnage is in Sensors and Fire Control. Missile engagement should be around 50m km to 100m km. When you adjust missiles in the future to be around that range, you can see better effectiveness in the missiles and more space saved by matching the sensors and fire control to that range. Also, taking another look, the Apache has way too large of passive sensors. Reduce their size by half or simply remove one of them.
Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.

First off the AM frigate:
Looks a lot better.  First thing i see though, your fire controls have a max range of 4x that of your gauss guns.  Going a little over for the accuracy buff can be worth it but not by 4x i don't think.  Also they have a tracking speed of 32,000 km/s while your turrets only track at 10,000 km/s.  I don't know if this is an error since your turrets used to track at 32k km/s.  Did you reduce the gearing to fit more in?
Hit chance iirc a while back scales linearly, so against a 30k km/s missile, a 10k km/s tracking turret has 1/3 the chance to hit of a 30k km/s tracking turret.  Maintenance life is still a bit on the high side IMO.

Frigate leader:
One thing i notice is the 12 month deployment time as opposed to the 16 on the others.  I'm guessing you were trying to squeeze an extra couple HS.  However i would recommend bumping that up level while reducing the fuel slightly in exchange.  Fuel can be shared among the ships and resupplied by tankers, while cutting deployment time means that the extra 4 months on the other ships is basically useless as they cannot operate with ought the leader.
To save HS i would wonder if the missile detection sensor can still be further reduced.  If its detecting missiles at about 3m km Since you are not using AMMs that extra detection range is not really useful for much that i can think of.

Missile launcher:
For 15kt 10 size 5 launchers is definitely still on the small side, though i'm still not entirely sure on your tonnages.  Out of interest what are the percentages by mass of the major components?

I don't know why but the range after i add it of  the Fire controls UP without reason... i actually verified it has the good range when i created it
I was wrong all the time it was the "50% Accuracy at Range: 60 000 km" --'

EDIT : The only problem I have is how to jump this monster throught a JP, but without the JGs, I do not want to facilitate the enemy access to my systems.

Unfortunately it has some killer flaws.  The biggest are that it lacks flight crew berths for the fighters, and it has no active sensor to spot enemies. Less important, but still very serious is that it only has enough magazine space for about 250 size 5 missiles. 250 missiles will go really, really fast between 30 standard launchers and bombers.  Of lesser concern would be the high number of fire controls - you probably won't ever need 15 fire controls for 30 launchers. I recommend 5 or 6 at most. 

I estimate at least 15,000 tons of your ship is devoted to armor, which is nice if you're being pounded with warheads but once you shoot your bolt you're defenseless against a single FAC with an energy weapon.

I would suggest going down to 15 armor layers, removing 10 of your fire controls, and using the tonnage gained on an active sensor (preferably 2 for redundancy on such a large warship) and magazines.

Your escort frigates also need active sensors for spotting missiles.

I forget the sensors f-u-c-k x) well here is the fixed version : but before what do you mean by crew berths ? where can i add more of this ? And for the fighter i use gauss canon , because my empire is highly specialized in missile and kinetic weapon , i have new designs of fighters with as main weapon meson canon but my empire has more than 80 scientist specialized in energy weapon but none of them have a higher bonus than 10% So I am very technologically behind in this field and my weapons remain very crappy compared to what I demand against a powerful enemy, for the moment they will only serve against a low-tech NPR at 9 jump of Sol but they are not really dangerous but against an NPR with an equivalent technological level , they gonna fall like mosquitoes

there is a check mark for keep excess crew capacity in the top right, from there crew modules can be added.

Also why the cryo births? those are meant for picking up escape pods. better suited for a dedicated and disposable hospital ship
