Reply to Help against the AI in Strategy Sins Forums

The upgraded turrets and hangar defenses sound great. I will definitely try these. This sounds to good to be true. I will be probably asking for a counter to these next week! I didn't realize a second weapons upgrade on the starbase would be different from the first one, so I didn't even bother getting the first one.

Militia forces, on like the 2nd or 3rd planet that I take over. I can kill them, but they seem to kill 1 or 2 LF's from time to time. Do most people teleport them out, or just let them die.
