They have a brief moment during the midgame in which they shine, but they don't unlock any new researach options and eventually get replaced entirely by better weapons, which means that in the long term researching them is pointless. Plasma and Autocannons are dead ends in weapon evolution. Particle/Tachyon Lance I don't research largely because at that point I'm aiming to fight awakened/fallen empires and Focused Arc Emitter just works better against them. Here are the reasons I don't research other weapons: Maybe it's not optimal in multiplayer, but in singleplayer it's simply works against everything, is probably optimal against fallen/awakened empires and the Contingency, and is the second best against the Prethoryn and Unbidden. The main benefit of my final design is that it's a jack-of-all trades. Battleship with spinal Mount Bow, Hangar Core, and Broadside Stern carrying a Focused Arc Emitter, a hangar, and 6 Phased Disruptors. Battleship with all artillery sections carrying 6 Proton/Neutron Launchers.Ĥ. Destroyer with Artillery Bow and Picket Ship Stern carrying a Proton/Neutron Launcher and 2 PD.ģ. While researching penetrating weapons I also research hangars.ġ.a Corvette with Picket Ship core carrying 2 lasers and 1 flak cannon and later PD.ġ.b Corvette with Interceptor core carrying 3 lasers.Ģ. Then I research Proton and Neutron Launchers and when I have them I research disruptors and then arc emitters. I do also research PD, but it's secondary. What I do is focus exclusively on lasers until I unlock the option to research Proton Launchers. Having more advanced weapons from 1 category will generally be better than having a mix of all possible weapons.
