Also, does assault boats get buffs with Astartes Favor? I have no clue.
Have you tried the NC in the last couple of days? It has a 20% hit rate, cannot crit, and does a maximum of 100 damage on a direct hit. Damn near useless.
When it comes to the Imperium, I've had the best experiences with lance-spam, rather htan the nova cannon. Need something to keep the shield down is hte only problem.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

Orks as attackers in a convoy mission are dumb.
Really, really dumb. They can just ram the transports with everything they have and basically autowin and there is very little you can do to stop them. The teleport can only do so much.
That aside, I have max level fleets in both Chaos and Imperium, and they are both quite nice in their own ways. I am not sure which I prefer... I think it would be Chaos.
I should think of a new signature... In the meantime, have a

Really? I have used it last sunday. Eh, I still like it as a weapon, and hopefully they will make it a little better in the next updates. If not, then the Mars class ships I have are still pretty good.

Holly gak there are a lot of cheats on this game lately!!!
ive had several games where people are clearly using OVER 200pts more than the mission allows and I'm not talking the bonus they get for difference in admiral levels, for example, I played a 250 and had 2 dauntless light cruisers, he was using a retribution battleship, 2 battlecruisers and 4!!!!! dauntless, this has happened several times now, the devs needs to get a handle on this before I demand my money back.

Yeah, let's demand your money back before beta even ends.

There's been a hack engine out since about a week after beta release. At my last check it had over 3000 downloads.

haha smartarse, learn to read my lovely person, I clearly said this "the devs needs to get a handle on this before I demand my money back"
Clearly means I'm going to give them time to... well.. get a handle on it, otherwise what is the point in playing the game? it would be like playing Metal gear online again, that game had rampant cheating on it and I had to fight to get my money back on that one, mgo 1 not 2 to be clear.

If you played the game for more than 2 hours your not getting your money back.
Yeah. Steam does a 2 hour trial period to check that you can run the game and that you weren't missold anything. But after that refunds are a no show in most cases.

Thanks for the info (not sarcasm)
In the case of a game that is not working properly (cheating) and the devs possibly not doing anything about it, I'd be inclined to say I'm entitled to a refund, but it's here nor there at the moment, as I said before, I'll give the devs time to remove the bug (as that's what I consider this exploit).

Considering the sheer reluctance that Valve showed in finally agreeing the relatively basic refund policy they now have....
So out of 20 games tonight, I'd say about 15 were cheating, be it over points for the game (not including the bonus for higher or Lower admiral level) or the infinate afterburner cheat (which they try to claim is a "bug" when challenged) it's pretty rampant now, I've posted on the relevant forums and named the people doing it, taken screens too, hopefully the devs will get on this before it ruins a promising game.
I haven't messed with multiplayer at all. Doubt I will. I've been enjoying the single player skirmish mode. Would love to try the campaign out, but since you can't save it...
Anyways, I sent a few hours playing today, and I'm excited for the full version.

If it's Orks, the infinite Turbo Boost is a glitch. Occurs when the engine is destroyed during a boost. It's a cheat in all other instances though.

The campaign is pretty much the tutorial missions and a convoy mission against Orks, so your not missing much aside from some cool cutscenes you can find online. I can't wait for the full game though.
I found that the AI is still fairly good on normal, and probably going to go full hard mode later on this week to see how badly I stink at it.

To be fair, in some cases ships can refull the combustuon gauge instantly with an ability.
yeah I know of that too, I should have hit record, if you guys had seen it youd see what I mean, the burners were on for a full minute, then when he spoted my ship on the other side of the map, bam, straight across the map again, that's 2 laps of a large map on full AB, even refill cant get you that far, ive tried it.
I've still been mostly playing the single player skirmish too. I will probably wait to try the multiplayer until Tindalos implements their party-making system, as I really don't have an urge to play random matches.
They seem pretty bugged as well. Somehow they managed to launch a boarding action that half killed an Overlord BC and caused about 5 critical hits all at the same time.
I'm not bothering to play until the IN becomes playable.
Got me 90 hours of gametime out of it, so I didn't waste money. Just a shame I won't be getting any more value out of it. Tindalos are being stuck up frenchies this/last week, especially according to the Emprah's Finest testing squad.
So, I tried the eldars today (only once, unfortunately): they are awesome !
Very, very powerful, quick, and fragile.
Exactly what I was expecting.
I had doubts about the pulsar (too much micro management in the fleet), but auto attack works fine, in fact.
Really excited to test them more !
What are your feelings about them ?
(If some of you have problem to fire the pulsar correctly, they have the solution on the Battlefleet gothic armada forum, eldars thread).
