The next Starfall Tactics test is almost here, so we are starting to prepare the game for your visit: adding new stuff, clearing up some bugs, tuning interface and making work all the new features together. Although it takes most of our time, we have something exciting to tell you about and show today - make sure you read news carefully ;)

Great update and of course Q follows:)
How big is the explosion on the pirate station radius wise?Why I'm asking,for exmpl,If we get couple of friend and we all shoot plasma in one spot and of course it gets bigger and does more dmg then pull back right away and let the plasma do its dmg then come back and shoot again?or use the EMP on it and disable it on the end of its life?Or if you use loooooooooong range lasers and shoot it from far away?

P.S.
The star fall tactics page is awesome but I think is missing something or I'm wrong.
I couldn't find any where more detail things for the game,for exmpl,to check all the modules what it does,check weapons,look at fictions ships,what is IGC, different asteroid fields color give you this item chance %,this way people will have some idea what they can put and fit and try in the game play.
Again,maybe I'm wrong but its just a thought:)

Veeeery big. EMP doesn't disable this ability as EMP in Starfall Tactics only damages shields.
You can use long range weapons, sure. But there is no guarantee you will escape enemies this way, as they should react on your snipers.
The best way to escape Screeshers base explosions - is to destroy it before countdown comes to 0. It can be hard if you don't save a solid strike till that moment or lose most of your ships.

You definitely won't find it in our web page as that's too early tu put something like this here, but we will change it with time, of course, and may be will make a wiki for the game :) Right now you can check all the modules in the game, in CODEX - just push the according button on the top right of your screen.
