Has anyone tried this "micro expansion pack?" I was wondering if it is worth getting or not. How much does it add to the gameplay?

Not me :cool: I had a single fleet with 24 battleships that I used to take on 4 galaxies at once :D



Thats only a few of them the rest hadn't arrived. My best ship was the HMS nvidia (I renamed them all after companies and CPU architectures) was level 7 I think or 6

Awesome. It was a pain in the but making all those little gravity well defense stations just to have them slaughtered by lowly corvette aircraft. I always had to have one fleet of ships play goalie while the rest beat down on the enemy. :(

I had 4 I think novus cannons and they were enough to slow down any invading fleets until my fleet got there.
