Given that the shields of most Vasari craft are low, it'll see a fair amount of use.

Early in the game, when you have a low fleet capacity, this will enable you to keep your forces in top shape while you go around battering your enemies.

However, even if the replicated ships survive the duration, there is still a 30-second period you cannot use this ability.Ĥ x Plasma Wave Cannons (Starboard / Port)įirst, and foremost, get Repair Cloud. Though it says it copies frigates, it works on cruisers, too! (this is because in terms of sins game mechanics, there is not actually a difference between frigates and cruisers, the term Cruiser is simply an arbitrary distinction which implies the ship is more powerful) If you have numerous Skarovas Enforcers, or Allied Kodiak Heavy Cruisers and/or Destra Crusaders in the vicinity, this can quickly give you the upper hand if you find yourself in a losing position.

Replicate Forces allows the Skirantra to make 3 copies of a targeted friendly unit for the next two-and-a-half minutes. Microphasing Aura allows all fighters, be they the Skirantra's or not, to instantly warp to a better spot in a given area around the Carrier. This lets you field substantially more striking power than is normally the case, and is a powerful advantage early in the game. On the other hand, selecting the Scramble Bombers ability early lets you focus most of your effort on fighters, and still field respectable numbers of bombers. Generally, this ability will eat up antimatter like nobody's business, and is something you may want to use carefully. If you find yourself in a tight spot, say against another capital, you can briefly deploy an additional squadron of bombers to assist with the fight. Scramble Bombers is a 'panic-button' ability. This is crucial early in the game, as the Vasari require more supply for their ships than the other races (excepting their Capital Ships, which remains the same), and thus cannot field as many at once. Though it might be tempting to get a Kortul Devastator as your first capital ship, the Skirantra's Repair Cloud probably makes the carrier a safer bet, as you can heal your ships if they're damaged. Large banks of Matter Compilers allow Skirantras to generate many varieties of nanites at a staggering rate, granting them enormous flexibility in how best to support allied forces. Though some of their subsystems may be obsolete by Vasari standards, that makes them no less feared by fledgling civilizations. Official Description: Nanotechnology is put to use in some form in nearly every Vasari design, but few utilize it as pervasively as Skirantra Carriers. The Skirantra Carrier is the Vasari's Carrier. Strike Craft: 3 - 8 (+1 at 3, 5, 6, 8, 10)Ī Warship boasting a number of nanotechnology abilities and many squadrons of strike craft.
