I get the impression that the CDF wanted perfection in every performance and felt demoralized when they couldn't achieve it. The Khan's were ecstatic when they got things good enough. When it comes to warfare (the IRL kind) it's often said that good enough is the truest perfect. Despite the Khan's ships and leadership not being perfect they were good enough to beat the CDF's concept of a perfect ship and strategy, and in the end that's what wins battles, not pursuing perfection but simply getting the job done.

As you said the leadership thing is true in real life as well. If you have hundreds of crew who are well trained and have the ability to make decisions for themselves that ship will always outperform another where the commander has to make every choice. No one commander no matter how smart they are can know everything at every moment in time, though they have to be the ones to coordinate strategy.

honestly our voice chat expecialy during the first few turns of season 2 where just scuffed as hell. So many people talking at once an giving orders. Plans being constructed mid battle by low ranking members. People having dificulty recognising the voice of the leader from the other voices. and constand memes and battlecries being shouted. plenty of people joined our VC during filming. listened for 2 minutes and left and I dont blame em XD It was honestly quite fun those filming sessions. I kinda miss the choas since we streamlined voice chat an lot as well and people sadly have stopped trowing out stupid ideas, and leadership stopped accepting those stupid ideas. But hé we had an lasting impact on outlands. And even if KE becomes the next CDF in the future we put our mark down As pretty much CO leader of the faction I want to thank: Upgrayedd, Crescent, Maverick, Caraboa, Markus, Xeno, Spitfire an lot for designing and coming up with an lot of these ideas and play styles for KE during the early days. Maverick and Crescent pretty much invented the KE ship design. And all of them pretty much helped make our leadership style the way it is. props to you guys you did good!

I noticed one thing a fair few times , even though the battles are in space . The ke Followed the art of war and the other factions didn't . The ke regularly appeared weak when strong or would play of what their opposition would expect tactically, leading to coa committing or over committing to battles they shouldn't have and every time they backed the ke into a corner. The coa would try to completely encircle the ke using numbers and forgetting to leaving a big exit sign from battles , Which lead to the coa to take more loses then they should have and that happened in a few battles and forced the ke to fight harder then they would have if it was easier to escape from those battles .Never press a desperate foe to hard :)

I always play the 'Paragon' type character in video games/dnd, maybe with a chaotic flair. But I LOVE playing the 'bad guys' when that's the whole point of the medium/task. Maybe I ought to re-download SE and actually commit to learning its ins and outs....

@mobiuscoreindustries

That and understanding of game mechanics. I make a lot of custom weapons and used to run with factions sharing that way of playing the game. But where I diverged from my peers was that I would actually shove my prototypes into as many fights against actual players as possible, and within the bound of survival if at all possible. It was hard and took a lot more time as well as often seeing that time being entirely lost when a particular design under-performed and lead to serious damage or total loss. However it taught me exactly what the breaking point of many things are and to better understand game mechanics that would influence the design. Things that are easy to miss for my colleagues that tested the weapons against big slabs of heavy armor. AP is a very nebulous stat and often "I can pen 15 layers of heavy armor with my super stick" did not translate into greater combat effectiveness. For example my missile design has shifted towards maximum applicability rather than raw damage. Simply put, what is the cheapest and most reliable way to do damage to the target profiles you are most likely to encounter. This phase of the analysis discounts ordinance entirely and sometimes I even employed dummy payloads in live engagements because it would make it far easier to see where projectiles impacted and how they did (tracking dents on a ship armor was easier than the gabled mess left by actual ordinance). This allowed me to tailor ordinance doctrines to specific servers, not only leveraging any new blocks (such as better thrusters, warheads or gyros, for example) but better defend against unique weapon balance (such as exploiting turret lead by having missiles mimic the ciruclar dodging partern that was presented in the video) or having missiles intentionally "miss" via a wide arc offset only to spin around once they reach the midpoint of the ship to sandwich it between a direct volley and the previous offset volley. Manipulating ship trajectories by making low threat missiles more "obvious" was also very useful to exploit a range advantage of normal weapons. For example if your ship has railguns that give it a good 5km range advantage you can use obvious PMW missiles to force people into an evasive which most won't have the balls to try so head on (cause if you fuck it up, your ship gets shredded), so they usually speed cap the missile, which means they are now moving away or parallel to my ship, meaning they are NOT closing the gap where the range advantage no longer matters. Similarly by concealing their launch you can bait someone into a charge and hopefully apply the previous relative speed benefit to inflict catastrophic damage on them if they do not react fast enough.

Having watched both seasons, season 2 has reminded me of early WW2. The allies were too busy fighting the previous war while germany was trying out a new tactic. big surpise that the germans were fairly dominant against Poland, Belgum, and France. however as the war progressed, the nazis started slowing down using more known tactics while it was the allies that adopted to a new doctrine that used their superior manufacturing power to just pummel Germany into submission. We can only hope that with the EFN putting pressure on, the Riders can adapt with the new CDF units and fully turn the tide. sort of going on analogy, the CDF are france refusing to adapt and falling (but a stubborn group joining the Riders ala Free France), the Riders appear to be both a combination of Britain and the Soviet Union (think officer purges). First fleet is almost doing the role of the US. almost. and the EFN are the fucking Poles fighting long after their country was destroyed. God I love the Polish.

@@GetBrocked History rhymes in strange ways.

I'm not quite through the entirety of season 2 yet, but it seems to me, watching the edited videos, that the Jump Inhibitor was a major factor. The season 1 combat seemed very indecisive, with a ship jumping out as it became critically damaged and the 'victor' unable to complete the kill. When the KE show up, you can tell that the COA had no clue how to handle the loss of their ability to safely retreat, and that combined with the KE aggressiveness gave the KE a serious edge.

God you guys have made excellent content, just finished bindge watching season 2.

That circular / changing vector strategy isn't to be undervalued. I remember helping a friend test their heavy armour combat ship with my little 4 gatling fighter with high thrust to mass ratio in multiple directions. Basically no armour. I was able to take out all of his turrets and thrusters by just circling the ship while changing vector.

I did wonder what happened to the two cruiser designs the Eternity gave to the CDF to convince them to stop making the battleship

Shipmaster, they outnumber us 3 to 1! Then it is an even fight.

On the meta side, I think it was also hard for the COA to fight a battle of attrition, because KE could easily repair their ships at a FOB. So even if a battle was very close, all that mattered was which ships were destroyed.

I don't play space engineers but I've always enjoyed watching what people are able to create in it, started watching your videos a few weeks ago and I'm loving hearing about the stuff on your server.
