Update: Alright this didn't go well, one of my surveyor ships bumped into their ships and got shot down in the process sparking hostility right away Blucher 002, all 15 surviving crew were stranded and left to die because I had no offensive capable ships and couldn't risk my only CVE. But my first generation navy nears completion a year after contact. I create the 2nd Himmelschutzen Fuhrung aboard the CC Damerung Star headed by Kommodore Bianka Woldenberg and sigh with relief as I can begin training excercises.
However, a day later on July the 13th 30575 5 Bogeys all in the 9000 ton range are picked up as thermal signatures. I rub my hands together as my 80k+ warmachines armed with countless ASM's point their merciless launch tubes in their direction.
Unfortunately though these guys must have cloaks because they are well within the Kill zone of 859m Km res50 Sensors/missiles. This might take awhile to resolve, dammit I knew I should've created an IR ASM. If they get too close intelligence tells me my Railguns will out range theirs by over 400k km. So thats nice. But if they have anything more serous than that and have super lasers up their sleeve things will get. . . interesting.
PS: Nope not cloaking, its ECM. Damnit, its the one thing I forgot on my designs(And I can't simply refit Q_Q), an ECCM for each launch tube. My Firing Range is currently almost cut in half.
