I've played two games where one turn of combat lasted about 10 minutes.
While the computer was doing it's turn I went to get something to eat. It
was about 40 doom stars and if i remember correctly, 59 titans + smaller
ships. About 1/3 of the DSs were loaded with stellar convertors and titans
had tractor beams + loads of other guns. Anyway, i was outnumbered and had
about 20 doom stars and titans, but i was technically more superior.
Although i think all races that were still alive had researched all the
available tech. Anyway, i sometimes let the AI handle my combat since it
took so long, but after realizing that it didn't target the stellar
converter DSs, i had to step in and start shooting manually. One of my
doomstars destroyed any ship in the combat, but when computer shoots with
one of his stellar converter ships, he needs at least two shots to destroy
one of mine. So anyway, I won the battle after taking care of the enemy
converters. The other battle similar to this was pretty much the same,
except all tech hasn't been discovered and i'm outnumbered by huge load of
doomstars. Enemy is way behind in tech compared to me, but they beat me
anyway. I hate those huge fleets.
