By year 2250-75 what is your average fleet power?

Question is in title.

I think that depends on how much diplomacy you do. I typically play defensive wars and engage in diplomacy. However I build up defenses in my space. If your a fanatic militarist and hate everyone then you need a large fleet.

My biggest was over 1m. And i get squash like a pig after that. Now i`m just minor empire with fleet that splits in 20 different fleets over my empire. The fallen ignore me so far lets see how this going.

20-30k tbh

[jacobellinger]

50k if my start was lucky but like 10-30 if it was crappy which is most of the time

I'm currently playing a game at year 2275 with Inward Perfection and have about 200k fleetpower. Biggest fleet outside an FE and I'm a Fanatic Pacifist. But it keeps the nearby warlike empires away from me.

How are you people that powerful only 50 years in? In my current game, around 2260 now, I'm one of the top 5 powers with around 4k...

I guess it depends very much on the initial selection of politics and traits ...

i played as fanatic xenophobe and militarist, and got as many mineral booster traits and civics as i could. i also boosted fleet cap as much as i could, and the year is now 2283 and fleet pwr is almost 100k. of course, in that game i prioritized fleet power far more than normal. normally im somewhere like 50- 60k.

I'm playing on a 5x habitable worlds map on Insane. That's why I need a fleet that size.

I know, right? This game has the worst learning curve I've ever seen. I'm like 60 hours in by now and I feel like I barely understand the basic mechanics. HOW DO I NOT SUCK WHAT THE HELL

I think it's partly the difference between RPers and Power Gamers, too. I'm just not a min-maxer. Kills all the fun.

My fleet size is around 7k by 2250-2275, then up to around 15k by 2330 -- but that's clearly not enough to forestall war with the AIs (that, of course, run to the 21-25k range by this point). Again, this game seems to be heavily weighted towards the AIs (whether this is by cheating, or simply by being better at managing all the options and "knowing" the best development paths I do not have sufficient information yet to say).

[Knight.R]

I asked because after 1.6 at most i seem i could only gather enough for 2-4k of fleet power while the AI keeps owning and i can't seem to figure out what i keep doing wrong.
I play at normal since its been awhile and i am still figuring out this new update. And i have 1.5k+ hours in this game and now i can't seem to even last long enough to unlock battleships.

Mmmm the soft smell of lie on the thread

I happen to be on year 2259 of my first game (default settings).

I have 9770 fleet power, which drops slightly if the fleet leaves my territory (harmony tree). Out of 7 regular computer empires, 2 list fleet power as "equivalent" and the rest as lower.

But that's only using 114 out of my 222 naval capacity.

I am currently researching cruisers and level 4 power generators. I have had level 4 missiles and shields for a while.

I have defensive pacts with the non-xenophobic empires*, and the 3 xenophobic empires have defensive pacts with each other, so if a war starts any time soon it's going to be really big.

*Well, the ones big enough to matter.
