– Escort ships tactical value shouldn’t be overlooked, even in high level games. – Although tricky, it is possible to intercept enemy fire in order to protect valuable ships. – Micro warp jumps work with augur probes and recon beacons. – Ork torpedoes might not be what they seem: they also use them as boarding devices! – As they lack shields and are more prone to critical damage, Eldar are weak to Lightning strikes. – Ramming, All Ahead Full and Brace for Impact are a deadly combo. Focusing fire on a subsystem increases the chances of critical damage. – Clicking on an enemy ship allows you to select the subsystem to focus fire on. – If your weaponry is stronger in the front, or you’ve lost your Broadside weaponry, configure the ship’s behaviour to favour front-facing combat. – Orks’…peculiar ship designs tend to leave thinner armour at the rear.
As such, their frontal armour is thicker.
– Imperium ships are designed to face heavy enemy fire right before unleashing their side weaponry. If your weapons are disabled starboard, show them your port weaponry. – Using the behaviour panel, you can decide which side to show the enemy.
