      This is a poll to see which is better the, Igadzra Igazra, or the Adzgari Warship. MY personal opion is the Igadzra, because it can hod 5 turrets compared to the Azzy's 4, and has more shields. πŸ™‚

      ------------------

    • Adzgari Warships are much better and they look way cooler. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

      ------------------

    • Adzgari Warship a thousand times over.

      ------------------

    • azzy-2

      Izzy-1
      :mad: :mad:

      ------------------

    • Azdgari warship all the way. Reasons:

      1. I'm ALWAYS able to jam the Igazra's SAEs. They just fly at me then veer off.

      2. Yes, Dispersal Rockets are good, but the Igazra doesn't turn fast enough to fire them on you.

      3. The Azdgari warship can just easily swarm any Igazra. Although the Igazra wins a lot of the time, the Azdgari warships wins just as much.

    • Idzgara will never win this poll even if they did Azdgari will crush the Idzgara. Azdgari will dominate the opposing side. πŸ†’ πŸ†’ πŸ†’ πŸ†’

      ------------------

    • Lets get a little realistic. The SAEs don't matter when the Adzgari warship can only use fighter bay (we are using the starting weapons grid) and the Igazra has 5 turrets much better shields and more secondary weapons. The Azzy warship will get blown out of the sky since it has lower shielding and less firepower. . The Igazra costs 15,000,000 and I believe the warship is aroung 10,000,000, that means for every 3 Azzies there are 2 Igazras. I think that takes the chances of being swarmed away. πŸ˜•

      I can take out an Igazra in an Azzy FIGHTER (if it's properly upgraded).

      ADZGARI FOREVER!!!

    • Yeah, the Azdgari are still better. The Igadzra Arada stinks, and they have no fighter to compete with the Azdara. The Azdgari rarely hunt alone, and so the chances are there is another Azdgari or Zidagar ship in the system, just waiting to tear the Igazra to shreds.

      Long live the Azdgari!!

    • Not another debate about Aggie Warship versus Igzara? The Aggie is better. In one-on-one AI vs. AI combat, the Aggie warship wins about 80% of the time. Here's what happens: The Aggie and the Iggie jump in. The Azdgari Warship lauches six Azdaras and heads over to attack the big Iggie. The Iggie start pouding the fighters with it's turrets. The SAE's swirl around like crazed bumblebees, never hitting anything. Once the big Ig takes out a couple of fighters, the actual A. Warship comes in and starts firing IT'S turrets. The Iggie keeps switching targets like a stupid AI, giving the fighters time to recharge their shields. Soon, the Igzara is taken down by superior numbers. There ya go.

      I beleive the Iggy wins 100% of the time on my game during a one on one. The Azdaras fly out get blown on their second pass and then the Igazra and Azzy just blow each other up with turrets, but since the Igazra has Dispy rockets and 1 more phase turret the Igazras normaly win.

      ------------------

    • I forgot to add that is why the only ship that stands a chance at beating the Igazra is the Voinion cruiser because it has armor and can hod 6 turrets.

      ------------------

    • The Azzie cruiser probably is good as your own ship (never tried it, since I don't like Azdgari), provided that you rip out the fighter bay in favor of defpods, and upgrade its movement. Then again, so is the Igazra if you speed it up and exchange the SAEs for defpods.

      As an enemy, I find the Azzie much easier to destroy. I kill off the fighters with two or three defpod dumps within a few seconds, then the remaining warship is a piece of cake. The Igazra just hurts a lot more in direct combat, and you have to spend more time in its vicinity to bring it down.

      In AI vs AI fights, the Azdgari have an advantage because a) the AI's targeting routines get screwed when there are multiple attackers, and πŸ†’ SAEs (and SAD even more) suck in the newer version of EVO.

      Then again, I hate Azdgari in general. They're little more than organized pirates.

    • For the last time the SAEs dont matter its the turrets and dispy rockets so stop saying that the Azzy can beat the Iggy because the SAEs are easily jammed.i've never seen and Igazra get killed by an Azzy warship. Where do you see these fights where the Azzy warship wins.

      ??? what upgrades.

      ------------------

    • What upgrades do you get for the Azdgari fighter to take out the Igadzra???

      ------------------

    • ??? what upgrades.

      I always have at least:

      1: Shield Enhancer
      2: Shield Generator
      3: Afterburner
      4: Cloaking Device
      5: Fuel Scoop(s?)
      6: ECM

      Remember, it takes a while to kill these fellas. What I generally do is:

      1: Shoot the Iggy till he fires SAEs

      2: Dodge the SAEs (afterburner really helps here, but don't use it more than nessecary, because you need it to cloak. This is also why I have the ECM, but they aren't perfect)

      3: Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the Iggy is dead, cloaking to recharge shields whenever you need to. If you're out of fuel to cloak, leave the fight for a bit.

      This takes a LONG time, and the money you get isn't worth the time it takes to disable them. That's not the POINT, however. And this isn't the tactic for people who like flying warships. It takes patience and a certan ammount of bloody-mindedness. If any of you have conquored a race's homeworld without useing a patch for easier of faster battles, you know what it's like.

      Any disagreements are welcome, but this DOES work.

    • I doubt you would be avle to beat a human controled Igazzra that way though. Also lets get abck to AI vs. AI. I know for sure that an Azzy fighter would get smoked if it were controled by an AI.
