I know this list isn't 100% canon, but for balanced gameplay (more importnat to me) some things have to be sacreficed lol...
light fighters are good at countering fighters, and light bombers
heavy fighters are good at countering heavy bombers and light bombers
light bombers can take on the smaller larger ships, they do shield damage as well as hull damage, more shield than hull
heavy bombers can take on anyo f the larger ships, the have shield pass weapons so they do no shield damage and good hull damage.
Tier 1s can take on all the fighter/bombers easily enough, are fast
Tier 2/3/4 are all relativly the same strength... so are Tier 5/6 , 7/8, 9/10, 11/12
Ive tried to grab a hero to cover these groups, thats y theres 7 heroes. I know not all the groups are covered, but on average i think itll work out ok
Also all carriers generate 5 of there light fighters, 3 heavy fighters, 3 light bombers and 2 heavy bombers and are sting against corvettes and other anti-fighter units...
let me explain the rest of the tier setup. Each teir is identically powered. They are counter units of the lower tiers...
the list is still open to variance.... minor variance....
As for whats left to do

Update AI with new buildable units -
now u know what ive got ahead of me... remember each tier has 4 units... for each unit i have to not only balance speed, health, shields, hardpoint damage, armor type, damage type, fire rate, projectile type.... etc...
So yeh long story short ill be working on this when i get a chance, and marking those things ive finished. Ill be doing it in order of whats there stuff not listed isn't really important enough for me to deal with ATM.
Spino
Id like to apologise the the current speed i seem to be stuck at, or at least apear to be at, after all its been a little while since ive updated the news with more details, and ive been having issues at home and work... u know what its like...
anyway, i hopefully will have tier 5 done today, but right now im up to tier 4
Spino
i cant get the mod to work, petrolauncher doesnt work with vista and i dont get the .bat file thing on the desktop to work.
any ideas on how to fix it?
the bat has to be in the FOC folder, where the install puts it, u need to create a shortcut to the .bat on the desktop
@ChaosLord
sorry i missed ur comment from a few days ago, i dont us the mod launcher so i dont know, i use the bat file that comes with the mod to play it
Ok the list of heroes for SW and ST are in, so have a look tell me what u tihnk... if u have a good enough reason i might change them ,but if u dont then i wont lol
I know you already have a hero list but i was thinking for the ST you could have Tom Paris in the Delta Flyer, Khan in the Reliant,and the JJ Enterprise, anyway just some suggestions, keep up the great job on the mod
Ahh Tier 2s done... this takes for ever lol... but ill try and get more done faster but i still need a short list of other hero ships for each her otier, ive got 2 for SW but im working out there details, as for the ST ships, i havn't had a suggestion, so please, any ST fans out there, make one for me lol
thanks
Spino
