    I have to emphasize that you are, by a wide margin, the best Highfleet RUclipsr around. Most others are not taking advantage of the nuanced gameplay mechanics like you are. I feel like the other videos Ive seen are just clumsy Zerg rushes in comparison. Please keep explaining what your tactics and strategies are and how you’re using in game tools to make decisions.

      Awesome, thank you again. I will do my best! I'm hoping to show off using local Radar to guide missiles next.

    The lore and world of Highfleet is so mysterious and deep.

      I find it very intriguing and what there is just makes me much more immersed.

    This game feels like a spin-off set at some point in the history of Dune. 10/10 mood, aesthetic and immersion

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  2 года назад +8

      It is for sure inspired by Dune, there are even unused giant worm enemy files in the game if you go digging!

    Its interesting from a lore perspective that a page from the literal bible ends up in this world.

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад +12

      The lore and history of this world is so fascinating! I want to learn more! I have a lore/background video in the works but it is taking me a long time to put together.

    You are Criminally Underrated! Stumbled across your channel while on the High Fleet subreddit and regret not finding your content sooner. Love the content, browsed your older videos and i am seeing a great line up for the next couple of weeks to listen to while at work. Keep up the good work, cause I'm definitely here to stay!

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад +4

      Thanks, I'm thrilled that people are enjoying my content. We have a long campaign ahead of us with Highfleet for sure! Hopefully people might want to see some other stuff down the road.
      The Battletech beta stuff is tied to a let's play I did on a forum, so it might not make a huge amount of sense on its own

      Yeah, he's pretty awesome. I'm trying to get my cousin to play this game, and if he picks it up, I'll refer these videos to help him make sense of all of this lol

    Im sure you have figured it out by now, but asking for reinforcements will provide your fleet with new vessels. Asking for support will give your fleet a morale boost. Cheers

    Be interesting to see how you deal with nukes -- launch early or hold off as long as possible.

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад +7

      I have plans for my nukes, there is a specific time I would *like* to use them, we will see how long I can actually keep them in my pocket for...

    You never need to apologize for showing mistakes or bad battles. Those are better opportunities for viewers to learn from than "RUclipsr does everything perfect on the first try." Plus they add some fun drama and tension .

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  2 года назад +1

      I am really glad you are enjoying these! The whole idea of doing the series was to showcase the game to people who might have bounced off the first time they played. Good luck taking Khiva!

    I don't know if anyone pointed it out already, but the quote is from Book of Isaiah. The dev is w devout Christian and has made the Bible the holy book in the setting.

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  2 года назад

      You are the first, thanks for bringing it to light! I didn't realise it actually was from the bible. It's another interesting link to earth on a planet that 100% isn't the one we are on right now.

    Should have said it was a miracle. That opens up some interesting possibilities later in the game...

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад +2

      Haha, I like this! I need to play the miracle/prophecy angle up more!

    • @Ice5643
      @Ice5643 3 года назад +2

      @@Phrosphor I think you might be locked out of the path now but if you do a second campaign it can be a very fun option.

  • @lordhood117
    @lordhood117 2 года назад +1

    You really should’ve taken the “translation of the qoda = miracle” route. Exploiting the prophecy is fun when you’re good at picking up details in events.

  • @Jerubarbaruah
    @Jerubarbaruah 3 года назад +5

    Definitely love the light and nimble raids into Gerat. You're living off the land with not a lot of room for error. Only real danger is running up against something that stalls you. Are you just going to rely on garrison salvage for income or is there going to be a concentrated effort to pirate the trade ships?

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад +1

      Honestly my strategy heavily lies on hitting trade fleets, that why I stick with fast interceptor groups. I just haven't hit any that haven't been landed yet.

  • @fiesbert5677
    @fiesbert5677 3 года назад +1

    I am quite sure that volley firing is more precise than firing a single burst. Additionally you can turn your firing arc during a volley to saturate a small cone which almost guarantees a hit. I try to hover, wait for their attacks and dodge into a firing position to unload a whole mag from a good angle

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад

      Volley fire is better, but when dealing with smaller ships like this with 130mm I only need a couple of precise shots at a weak spot. I volley fire with bigger ships. I just wasn't playing super well in that combat!

    20:28 Does fuel on settlements regenerate? How often?
    22:47 A skylark visit on Ashkelon would have done the exact same, minus combat and loot, of course

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  2 месяца назад +1

      Settlements actually have infinite fuel, but there is only so much your tanks can hold. You can always top up to max as long as you have the cash. And the time.

  • @LightningDragon79
    @LightningDragon79 3 года назад +3

    Oh boy, those repair timers were pretty harsh. I hope you can get some easier funds and maybe a bit stronger ships. Though I feel like avoiding damage is maybe better?

    • @Phrosphor
      @Phrosphor  3 года назад

      Avoiding damage is def the best option, I really should have restarted that fight.
