mj12games.com/forum → Starmada → SXCA changes 2.4-2.5
Hi I have been using SXCA 2.4 for designing ships and it seems that there is a large diffrnce between 2.4 and 2.5
I have been using -1 tec for weapons and shields if that helps.
What SXCA is the more correct one?
Thanks.............Doug
Hi I have been using SXCA 2.4 for designing ships and it seems that there is a large diffrnce between 2.4 and 2.5
Can you be more specific about the "large difference"?
both ships have the same design
This was made with SXCA 2.5g
D-7a class Klingon Battle cruiser ( 58 ) with 220 space units left over
Hull: 6 5 4 3 2 1
Engines: 5 4 3 2 1
Shields: 3 2 1
[a] Disrupter [4/8/12, 5+, ROF 2]
ab, ab, bd, ac
Hyperdrive [O]
1[HQ], 2[Ea], 3[Ha], 4[E], 5[H], 6[S]
TL: E: 0 S: -1 W: -1 Q: 0
The other ship is the same except the CR is 76 with only one space unit left over made with SXCA 2.4 last modified Dec 3rd 04
Thats a bit of diffrence.

With SXCA 2.2 this design is CR76 with 118 SU units left.
I guess I will have to try the math long hand to see what is correct.
I did the math for the above ship long hand, and came up with numbers similar to the 2.2 and 2.4 SXCA's. SXCA 2.5 is not even close.
The math I did for the SU cost was perfect when compared with SXCA 2.4, but I was 4 points off when I figured the CR. I did realize I was off by .1 on the weapon CR cost. (I rounded up to high)

The Defensive Rating (A.2.2) calculation was changed from that given in the Starmada X rules. The change was noted in the FAQ.
Multiply the number of hull points by 2 (not 3). Then multiply this by the shield factor.
The early SXCAs would have had the incorrect calculation, SXCA 1.1 did.
Hope this helps.
That does not explain the excessive SU I now have left over.
Thanks I will have to try it long hand again some time.
