Given
players
will
copy
AI
lineups
anyway,
thus
defining
the
meta
in
some
degree,
perhaps
we
should
add
them
to
the
fleet
list.
But
we
get
a
lot
of
players
making
really
great,
innovative
designs
in
just
a
few
days,
and
it's
wonderful
to
see
that
rather
than
slight
remixes
of
the
same
ships
everyone
else
is
using.

Maybe
when
people
jump
into
MP
the
first
time,
we
should
start
them
in
the
fleet
list
with
a
few
lineups
and
they
can
chose
which
lineup
they
like
best
and
play
with
it.
Maybe
we
should
even
front-load
the
design
menu
there,
so
that
before
you
even
get
into
MP,
you
have
to
fix
a
few
ships
by
adding
turrets
and
engines.
It's
wonderful
to
see
the
brand
new
designs
players
have
come
up
with
though
when
we
really
push
the
'design
your
own
ship'
angle,
rather
than
slight
remixes
of
the
same
ships
everyone
else
is
using.

I'm
not
sure
how
many
people
jump
straight
into
MP
and
realize
they
have
no
ships.
I've
honestly
never
seen
anyone
take
the
path
Shadowfury
did.
Perhaps
this
is
an
area
where
we
do
lose
players,
particularly
those
who
are
not
happy
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
in
the
design
menu
and
learning
from
other
players.

Anyway Shadowfury could totally field a flexible fast fleet with swarmers, heavy fighters, interceptors, bombers and and micro-carriers for support, which is more the direction he was going, you don't need to alphaswarm with a single beam fighter design to play with fast light units...
