Fleet movement/Stellar Manip question

Binford · #1 January 26th, 2003, 11:06 PM

OK, if this is in the FAQ I missed it:

I have a LARGE fleet protecting a Star destroyer (stellar manip comp that blws up whole system - forget name this second).

I do not want to lose my whole fleet when it detonatges. If I set the stellar manip to blow, and run my fleet for the nearest warp point (minus the Star destroyer of course) - will it beat the explosion out of the system?

If not, how can I do this?

I have heard that stellar manipulations take place on day 10. The best solution would be to set up a test game to test this out, and then post your results here.

In the order of battle stellar manipulation happens first.

Some exceptions are for instance you can move an opener then open a warp point so you can time that. But for a star destroyer if you move then destroy it will delay a turn. If you needed to destroy a system you probably wouldn't want to delay.
