My jump assault ship, most of my ships don't have jump drives and rely on my Jump gates. This puppy on the other hand is designed to be thrown through a JP in job lots and kill anything defending the system., that way my non jump ships can use a friendly little jG to jump in and chase down anything in system.

All of my designs are a bit outdated at the moment as i'm researching components for the next generation i'm actually at magnetic confinement tech but i haven't got the engines researched yet so here's my ships for now, critiques are appreciated.

[xeryon]

Wow, lots of designs.  Here are my thoughts:  Your gunboats are too slow to be able to close into a range close enough for the meson and beams before being blown to bits.  The speed of those craft is slower then the average speed of most main line craft.  I wouldn't want to try this unless I was pushing 10k or higher.  You can accomplish this by making the craft much smaller.  

On the cutter drop to one laser, resize the fire control to be closer to the beams functional range and half the power supply.

The disposable, if it really is disposable, remove the engineering and maintenance entirely, and you have the wrong size power for the mesons, which i would suggest dropping to one anyway to get lighter (in which case the power is correct)

Boomer is a problem.  You need to pick a direction for the missile design: speed or quantity.  With the reload rate you have, 70 seconds, you have 43 single salvos of missiles which will take nearly an hour to reload and fire all of them.  I doubt many primary battle sequences last that long.  The missiles are really slow with a somewhat short range.  Not really a problem but with slow missiles you need to overwhelm enemy defenses with quantity which you cannot do if it takes you an hour to fire 43 missiles.  You would need to field several dozens of this ship to have any success in this config.  if it were me i would drop the magazine entirely, research box launchers (or at least reduced size launchers) so you can fit more launchers and increase salvo size and reconsider a size 7 missile.  You can field many more launchers in the size 2-4 range.  if you want to keep the size 7 then retool your missile design so instead of 14,000mks you are pushing 80,000kms or something ludicrous and then the enemies various anti-missile defenses will have their hands full.  Oh, and your missile control needs retooled.  You have a 45m range missile with a fire control range of 4m

I don't really have a full critique on the larger ships, but a warship speed of under 3000 is generally going to be good for the receiving end of target practice.   

[OokamiNya]

Oh wow, that's a lot of ship classes you've got there.  A little hard to read.  . _.

I'm kind of new to Aurora, so take my advice with a grain of salt.  Or an entire shaker, even.

The gunboats have rather odd displacements.  At 850 and 950 tons, when you put them into your Mama FAC tender with 5000 ton capacity, you're always going to have some wasted space.  If you raise their tonnages to 1000, you can probably squeeze out a little more firepower or range and still fit five to a tender.

Your Boomer Missile Gunboat has a fire control with a range of only 4. 3m km, but your Hawk MI missiles can go over 10x further, which is a ton of wasted MSP on missile fuel capacity.  Your missiles should have ranges as close as possible to FC range, else the range goes to waste.  4. 3m km is really low for a missile too.  You'll get blown to pieces without getting a shot off against any missile-armed enemy with that kind of range. 

The missiles are weirdly sized too.  You spend 6. 8 MSP, but you get a size 7 missile, since size is always rounded up, so you miss out on 0. 2 MSP there.  Size 7 is kind of huge too.  If you cut your WH to 4 and reduce the fuel to match your fire control, you could get much smaller missiles so you can fire more volleys, though even then, with only one launcher per GB, you don't have much firepower to get past PD.  I don't think its possible at this tech level to make an effective gunboat unless you use box launchers, since you won't have enough missiles per volley otherwise.

I haven't tried any beam-armed ships yet, so no comment on your other gunboats.

The Mama FAC tender has a redundant active sensor that doesn't do anything since you have a bigger one of the same resolution on the same design, though I'd put sensors on a dedicated ship, since multi-role ships tend to be less efficient at their jobs.  Same idea with point defense: have a dedicated PD ship.  Your shields are practically useless too.  3pts of shielding isn't going to do anything for you unless they're throwing pebbles at you.  The tender should also carry more fuel unless you plan to bring a tanker along, since it has to refuel your gunboats when they return from fighting, and those thing eat fuel like it's going out of style.

Again, I know nothing about beams, so no comment on Thunderer laser destroyer.

There's not really any reason for every single one of your Comet destroyers to carry active or passive sensors.  Those should go on a dedicated sensor ship, like I said before.  The PD launchers should also get their dedicated ship as well.  Also, mixed role beams/missile ships do very poorly at their jobs, since beams and missiles have such different ranges.  At missile range, you've got half-assed missile firepower since you used so much space for lasers and at laser range, you have the opposite problem.  Shielding here is worthless again, since 1. 5pts of shield won't do anything noticeable.  Your maint life is also absurdly high.  I can't imagine a combat ship going that long without maintenance, especially if it only has fuel for about 2/3 of a year of flight anyway.  Your destroyer is also *really* slow.  It'll take ages for it to get anywhere and it'll get hit by practically everything.  Once you swap out the beams and PD, you should have room for more engines and fuel.  Your missiles should probably be smaller, since a ton of small missiles can do as much damage as a few big missiles, but are a lot harder to shoot down with PD.  It would also be less of a logistical nightmare if you used one type of missile instead of both Hawk and Vulture.

Sorry if anything I said was unclear.  General idea is that you should have more specific roles for each ship, since right now each one is trying to fill too many jobs at one time.

[Panopticon]

You are gonna need a huge swarm of the guys to actually clear jump points, given their fragility and the sensor problems after a jump.

Your Meson boat will be fine if you drop one of the guns, as mentioned you don't have the power to use two at a time.

I don't like weapons on dedicated carriers, so if I was building it I would drop the gauss turrets entirely, also Beta shields are worth less than the same amount of armor to me, so I would lose those too. If you have the turrets for missile defense, I would use CIWS instead. You could put more armor or carrying capacity on the carrier if you do drop the weapons though. Alternatively replace them with more box launchers.
Also: Active Search Sensor MR1-R1 (1)     GPS 24     Range 1. 4m km    Resolution 1
Active Search Sensor MR1-R100 (1)     GPS 240     Range 1. 4m km    Resolution 100
Two sensors, same range, drastically different resolution, you can probably drop the R100 version.

Your laser destroyer has no lasers, so there's that. I actually like the use of particle beams though, especially in a jump point assault role where they can hit at full strength through their entire range without having to chase the enemy down first.

That said, you don't have an active sensor on it, which isn't a problem if you have other ships coming with it, but I still prefer the redundancy in my fleets. Again, you have Gauss turrets, which I just don't like offensively, I would drop these for either more particle beams or CIWS. You have two different technologies involved with your power plants, you could probably save some weight by shifting exclusively to the best ones.

And the missile boat, I think you are packing too much into this, 3 different types of missiles, particle beams (which you don't appear to have a power plant for), the sensors and fire controls for all of these, and the magazines make for a kind of abomination of a design if I am going to be frank, this could work if you added perhaps 10000 tons to the ships weight, but as it is it is not doing anything well enough to be worthwhile.

I would split it into two different ships, one offensive missile based, the other for the fleet defense role. If you want to combine the roles on one vessel, then drop the particle beams entirely, they are redundant if they are deployed with the Thunderer anyway. Pick one size for offensive launchers and stick with it. if you dropped the size 8 and the particle beams, you could probably fit enough size 7 launchers to have a fairly respectable salvo weight. You could also cram some more antimissile launchers in there.
Your antimissile strongly outranges your AMM sensor.

General notes: Gunboats.
Your speed is fairly decent for your tech level, but the advice given above can certainly help bump it up. For missile carrying gunboats I find it kind of a waste to have reloadable launchers at all, put some box launchers on that guy or if you don't have those yet, the smallest launcher with the reduction tech you have available, You could probably fit 10 or so box launchers in the space taken by the current regular one and its magazine.

Ships.
Biggest problem? Speed, these things are sloooww. which means basically a 100% hit rate for the enemies firing on you. Not a ton you can do to change that at your current tech level, but your own anti ship missile would hit all the time against these guys. And they won't catch anything in a jump point assault if the other side doesn't want them to. Speed is less important on your missile combatants, but the energy guys would end up being essentially useless.

After that I think shields and gauss turrets are an issue, as I previously mentioned, but there are arguments that could be made for them as well.

You also have way more maintenance life than you need, could definitely drop that a bit.

Missile design: As previously noted you have some wasted space in your designs, but they have fairly decent stats anyway. I would design a purpose built missile for warp point assaults, call it a CAM or something. Give it a tiny endurance and pump the free points into warhead and engine. Load it on your Gunboats or on Box launchers for your main combatants during warp point assaults.

Closing:
Honestly you will find more success with these tactics at Ion drive level or higher, but you could do it with enough numbers and some refinement, as long as you don't mind huge losses.

[Shininglight (OP)]

Thanks for the input guys, as to the Gauss turrets i use them for a sort of net pd, I use all my ships to contribute to general defense which allows for a higher overall number of missiles to be eliminated, I've been using this setup ever since i ran into a massive missile force of enemy ships, I only managed to keep myships because of the netcentric method of pd I used, I hadn't made CIWS yet but the ships i had ( armed Grav survey vessels ) were able to knowckdown a heck of alot of missiles, Most were size 1 i think, with only minor damage to my lead ship and tanker.  Anyways heres the updated designs, It took awhile to get box launchers but i got a greater net missile launch capability for the Boomers.

Looking much better.  On the Boomers you kind of went in an odd direction with making the missiles so short ranged but you get points for having the fire control and missile range being compatible distances.  From here it is preference based on your enemies.  The size missiles you are using are pretty big.  If you face an AI that employs ships with lots of missile defense you might need to reconfigure to a smaller missile with more launch tubes to overwhelm enemy PD.  Otherwise much better.

[Shininglight (OP)]

The reason the boomers are so short ranged is that they would be used as third-second wave jp assaults & raiding units so their weapons only need a few mkm range.

[Hawkeye]

Just a few things:

Your actives have a maximum range of 14.4mkm but your missiles have a max. range of 45.4mkm. While you adjusted the range of your firecon, they won´t be able to lock on to a target, as you can´t light it up until at 14.4mkm

The beam firecons for your turrets seem to be x1 tracking speed (3.000km/s). To take advantage of the 20.000km/s tracking speed of your turrets, you should design x4 tracking speed FCs. You could also redesign your turret to only have a tracking speed of 12.000km/s to match, but personally, I overdesign my turrets at least one level (i.e. I can build 12.000km/s FC, I build 16.000km/s turrets), so later on I only need to upgrade the firecon and keep the turrets.

I think you forgot to update the missile loadout on the Comet, as you have only size 6.8 and size 8 missile, but mount size-1 launchers too.
Anyway, the two big missiles are realy strange. Size-7 and size-8?

The following missiles are designed with Nuclear Pulse Missile Drive, Warhead strength 4 and Missile Agility 48


Short-ranged attack missile with Warhead 1.75, Engine 3.25, Fuel 0.25, Agility 1

Code: [Select]

Missile Size: 6 MSP  (0.3 HS)     Warhead: 7    Armour: 0     Manoeuvre Rating: 18
Speed: 20000 km/s    Endurance: 9 minutes   Range: 10.7m km
Cost Per Missile: 3.95
Chance to Hit: 1k km/s 360%   3k km/s 108%   5k km/s 72%   10k km/s 36%
The medium-ranged version has Warhead 1.5, Engine 3, Fuel 0.5, Agility 1 gives me this size-6 missile

Code: [Select]

Missile Size: 6 MSP  (0.3 HS)     Warhead: 6    Armour: 0     Manoeuvre Rating: 18
Speed: 20000 km/s    Endurance: 18 minutes   Range: 21.4m km
Cost Per Missile: 3.7
Chance to Hit: 1k km/s 360%   3k km/s 108%   5k km/s 72%   10k km/s 36%
And the long-range version would pull 0.5 from warhead to fuel (Warhead 1, engine 3, Fuel 1, Agility 1) and look like this:

Code: [Select]

Missile Size: 6 MSP  (0.3 HS)     Warhead: 4    Armour: 0     Manoeuvre Rating: 18
Speed: 20000 km/s    Endurance: 36 minutes   Range: 42.9m km
Cost Per Missile: 3.2
Chance to Hit: 1k km/s 360%   3k km/s 108%   5k km/s 72%   10k km/s 36%


Wow, 4 firecons for 4 AMM launchers. Don´t you think that´s a wee bit of an overkill?


Important things:
To-hit chance is a lot better, which is important, because the strongest missile is of no use if it can´t hit the target.
The faster your missile goes, the harder it is to shoot down by PD. Your short-range missile is basicly a sitting duck at 10.000km/s.
The higher your volume of fire is, the better you are able to overcome PD. Three ASM launchers on your Comet are not going to cut it, especially as they fire missiles of different speed (very hard to do a time on target salvo)
Larger launchers have horrible rate-of-fire in the earlier stages of the game, again, volume of fire is your friend.

I just realized the lack of armament update for that i thank you as to the AS size i was aware but i was trying to balance it so that my sensors weren't too big for the ships firing them, Anyways i don't need more than a few milion km AS as those ships are likely being sent in withut specialised sensor boats which i'll use as spotters. The extra missile range is just for when i actually break into the system and i can send my command ships in, I'll post a design for one of the Command Boats in a little while. ALso the missile designs you posted are helpful and i'll see if i can develop some units for that. Also the 96-3000 are my long range units, I may have made a design mistake there and i'll try and rectify it. The slow heavy missiles i have are mainly for finishing of crippled enemy units that have lost speed and which i want to overkill. Otherwise i'm going to modify the designs, I've almost got Ion engines so i'll have to redesign the ships anyways.
