Hello,

I'm getting tired of seeing Galaxy Destroyer class too long and there seem is NO upgraded class beyond Galaxy Destroyer class.. More and more players are hitting colossal galaxy destroyer class.. I'm approacing 2,200 deck. I had seen Kaos hitting almost 2,400 using sillixx race but still was designated as same class as mine.

So, please add one or two new classes to help players to gauge our strength of deck size by looking at our class.

Thanks. ;)

how about adding ship classes below that and scaling up the higher ones?

Leviathan Class comes to mind, Dreadnaught, Attack class, Interceptor, Incursion class, Goliath, a little more colorful, Doombringer maybe?

Mega Galaxy Destroyer, 1XMega Galaxy Destroyer, 2XMega Galaxy Destroyer and so on.

Unless we go beyond the galaxy then it'll come into something like Multiverse Destroyer etc. lol

Or can simply add new classes (would be easier) at lower deck size and bump up minimum deck size of star and galaxy destroyers?

Exactly what I was thinking! There are lot's of good names in this thread, but some of them sound smaller than galaxy destroyer.

yeah, my suggestions had been made on the assumption that someone (zophah, 2nd post of thread) had already suggested that we add more in the middle. It's definitely easier to come up with the ones that were 'skipped' than it is to constantly one-up the last word the describe the besterest big thing that's bigger than the biggest big thing

while I'm posting, suppose I'll try a few more suggestions.

Invader (could easily stretch this class to 11, going from Very Tiny Invader to Mega Colossal Invader)
Nebula (lesser, neutral, and greater varieties)

(darn, had wanted at least a third idea before posting, but I'm drawing a blank)

Dan posted An Update to the ship classes this morning, so the Goliath and Leviathan classes are now in.

Quote:
Ship Size / Class
=================
Less than 50: Scout
50-99: Light Frigate
100-149: Frigate
150-199: Heavy Frigate

200-249: Light Cruiser
250-299: Cruiser
300-349: Heavy Cruiser

350-399: Light Battleship
400-449: Battleship
450-499: Heavy Battleship

500-549: Light Dreadnaught
550-599: Dreadnaught
600-699: Heavy Dreadnaught

700-799: Titan
800-899: Heavy Titan
900-1049: Massive Titan

1050-1199: Goliath
1200-1349: Heavy Goliath
1350-1499: Massive Goliath

1500-1649: Leviathan
1650-1849: Heavy Leviathan
1850-2049: Massive Leviathan

2050-2299: Star Destroyer
2300-2599: Heavy Star Destroyer
2600-2899: Massive Star Destroyer
2900-3199: Collossal Star Destroyer

3200-3599: Galaxy Destroyer
3600-3999: Heavy Galaxy Destroyer
4000-4399: Massive Galaxy Destroyer
4400+: Collossal Galaxy Destroyer

I'd agree that there needs to be more classes around the early-to-middle sizes. Having more names helps new players feel like they're achieving something as they grow their ship, and helps the slightly more experienced players differentiate between their enemies better.

I would suggest adding the Fighter as the smallest ship type, followed by the Bomber, then the Gunship. These would come before the Scout. I would then add the Escort and Corvette after the Scout, and add three Destroyer classes before the Cruisers. This would then increase the amount of classes that are at the start, and it would shift the numbers along to accommodate the extra classes, so it would benefit both new and old players.

New players: get new ship classes more quickly and frequently, so they get a sense of "reward" for growing their ship.
Old players: have to grow their ships more to get to the biggest ship types, so there is more of a challenge.

So this would be how i'd put it:

Quote:
Less than 25: Fighter
26-50: Bomber
51-99: Gunship

100-133: Scout
134-166: Escort
167-199: Corvette

200-249: Light Frigate
250-299: Frigate
300-349: Heavy Frigate

350-399: Light Destroyer
400-449: Destroyer
450-499: Heavy Destroyer

500-549: Light Cruiser
550-599: Cruiser
600-649: Heavy Cruiser

650-699: Light Battleship
700-749: Battleship
750-799: Heavy Battleship

800-849: Light Dreadnaught
850-899: Dreadnaught
900-949: Heavy Dreadnaught

950-1049: Titan
1050-1149: Heavy Titan
1150-1249: Massive Titan

1249-1399: Goliath
1400-1549: Heavy Goliath
1550-1749: Massive Goliath

1750-1949: Leviathan
1950-2149: Heavy Leviathan
2150-2349: Massive Leviathan

2350-2549: Star Destroyer
2600-2849: Heavy Star Destroyer
2850-3099: Massive Star Destroyer
3100-3349: Collossal Star Destroyer

3650-3949: Galaxy Destroyer
3950-4249: Heavy Galaxy Destroyer
4250-4549: Massive Galaxy Destroyer
4550+: Collossal Galaxy Destroyer

Nice! Thanks Dan for upgrading ship classes! I'm back to Star Destroyer once again hahah! But now players know that star destroyer is very hard to get now and there are very few players with star destroyer class or up now instead of seeing too many players with the class.. Nice upgrade!!

Now, Going back to Galaxy destroyer will be awesome goal.. LOTS of decks that I see.. Wow!

I'm only one in The Dysonians with the Star Destroyer class. I think Kaos (dunno what class but bet it's Heavy SD), PSICORE (Heavy SD) and me (Soon to be Heavy SD too) are only ones in GL to carry that class. Is there any one else with SD class?
