Killing a lone Ark is fairly easy a half-dozen attackers with missiles and shields are a credible threat to a lone Ark, a full dozen will take it down easily.
You don't have to worry about the AI attacking with an Ark and the AI is fairly incompetant with the Vodyani in general. They're scary in the early game, but if the Vodyani uses them to attack they're using what could be a colony to do it. The system in the example is producing total of 1205.4 food with 602.7 being wasted due to the Vodyani trait 436.4 food is being eaten, leaving a surplus of 166.Vodyani Arks are their colonies. If you hover the mouse over the food production icon, you'll see the breakdown for that number. Why?Īnd not only that, but I've noticed the amount of food drawn by the Ark isn't the same between systems or other Arks. I even removed every Ark module that might draw food (the essence one), and my Ark is still leeching food from a system. Now everything mentioned above makes sense to me, but has anyone figured out where or how the Ark is drawing food from its anchored system? Mousing over the food icon shows an amount is being given to the Ark, but I can't figure out why that it is, or where that number is coming from. I had my Vodyani pops starving to death immediately on game start when playing at Endless speed. Originally posted by Turnus:Yeah, this confused me too. It's also handy to deny nice systems to your enemy. So if later on down the line you see a really great system you can just pick up sticks with a fully developed Ark and the moment you touch down you will have an industrial juggernaut in the new system. But other than that, doesn't seem like there's much reason to move instead of just making a new Ark.Īll your improvements stay on the Ark when you pack up. Also, should you ever really move Arks once they're placed? I guess the ability to pack up and vacate could come in useful if there's a Craver or particularly hostile Riftborn/UE to your left and some nice-looking unclaimed systems to your right. There comes a point however, when the esence income gets high enough to Prolifirate a newly-claimed system to max capacity in a few turns. In the beginning the essence gain is too low to spend it on pop growth vs Ark cost. That gives a better boost to the essnce income from systems (law+ extra essence modules ). Personally I like to produce 1-2 additional Arks before using Proliferation. Originally posted by kingedward9830:I have another Vodyani food-related question: How often should I use Holy Proliferation? It can give their Arks huge boosts due to the extra population, but Essence can also be used for new Arks or to make Manpower.
