Just had a total war with an NPR. Suffered very heavy losses.
My GTA fleet:
2 x GTCC Alaska II(9150t, Sensor ship), 1 lost 1 slightly damaged
4 x GTCV Essex II(10000t, 4 x hangar), 2 lost 2 heavily damaged
10 x GTC Ticonderoga II(10000t, 10 x S1 AMM launcher and 2 x hangar), 10 lost
4 x GTC Forrestal(10000t, Collier refitted with 8 x S4 ASM launcher), 3 lost 1 slightly damaged
16 x GTF Cleveland(5000t, 18 x S4 ASM launcher), 12 lost 4 heavily damaged
16 x GTCv Caldwell(5000t, 6 x 15cm laser), 5 lost 10 heavily damaged 1 slightly damaged
32 x GTB Ursa(250t, 4 x S2 ASM), 32 lost
32 x GTB Medusa(250t, 6 x S2 ASM), 32 lost
40 x GTI Aegis(500t, 1 x 10cm railgun), 40 lost
NPR PVN fleet:
102 x 1000t missile boat, 86 destroyed
49 x 8050t laser armed destroyer, 49 destroyed
15 x 16100t, missile and laser armed cruiser, 14 destroyed
4 x 24150t, missile and laser armed battleship, 4 destroyed
Vasudan Prime, bombed back to stone age.
I have tech and ship design advantage, two waves of Vasudan destroyer were wiped out before they could approach my fleet. However, with resolution 100 sensors and missile fire controls, my S2 and S4 ASMs hardly work on missile boats, fighters and bombers somehow works at point blank range but suffered heavy losses, 1 Alaska II damaged and 1 Ticonderoga II destroyed. The next wave consisting 1 battleship, 7 cruisers and some destroyers shoot down some GTA bombers and frigates, destroyed 2 Ticonderoga II and 1 Essex II. Then I met 3 battleships, 8 cruisers ,some destroyers and about 40 missile boats on Vasudan Prime orbit. They launched 200 S1 AMM at about 20m range, instantly wiped out my bomber squadrons and ASM salvos. Then my fleet defence were overruned by hundreds of S1 and S3 ASM, most Ticonderogas and Clevelands were blast into pieces within 10 minutes, others were heavily damaged. All I could do is to order Caldwells make a suicide attack. They have 12 layers of armor, absorbed much damage during attack run. Finally, 9 Caldwells made it and blast Vasudan ships into pieces.
