	CDF Orders-Discussion Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

With no disapproval from the officials, and some approval, I am willing to say the CDF (Coastal Defense Force) is formed.
Immediate orders:
-Research [Doctrine: Iniative]
-Expand with Water Bases

But won' this pull industry away from ohter, possibly more important matters such as infrastructure and the likes? Granted, some defence is needed, but it should not pull away from building our empire.

I think I missed something. Are these official orders from a government organization?

No, these aren't official orders.

Yes, they arent official. These are reccomendations. First of all, we will NOT pull away resources. Ships are to be built at sea colonies, pulling no resources away from the mainlands

How well will these ships stand up to the IoDs and seagoing Boils? We wouldn't want to lose such an investment so early on. And can we get a Planet rating so we can capture a few worms to explore far more effectively?

	Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Well, ships stand up pretty well to IoDs. They NEED to have at least Synthmental Armor, and Lasers. A Gun Skimship will NOT stand up to a IoD. A Synthmental Gunboat will have a enhanced chance. Armor is important. We WILL not be able to get some planet rating this early im betting. When we get Centauri Ecology, it might be possible. Right now, CDF isn't going on long range missions. That's the millitary's job. CDF is simply defense, only to hold off IoDs and defend millitary and transports. CDF WILL stand up to IoDs, but only 1 or 2 at a time. IoDs are much stronger then mindworms.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Fortunately they are also rare at this stage of the game, unless - do they turn up this early if you play on the higher difficulties?

I'm thinking you're correct, MWIA.

Now how many do we really need until we actually meet somebody though...
