Sponges

Sponges Ever wondered how Sponges work in Stellaris? This video will answer your question Edited by @Harinion, Main Channel @Strategiser This Channel is inspired by Nurse and Trupen’s short series on Project Zomboid and Factorio respectively 0:00 Did you know that in Stellaris you can use Sponges to Absorb Damage? 0:03 “The most important part of an Engagement is the First Strike“ 0:06 Who deals the First Volley of Damage is Likely to be the WINNER 0:10 But what if this First Volley is COMPLETELY Negated with Little-To-No-Cost? 0:14 Introducing Army Transports, they conveniently have High Evasion, are Super Cheap, have Low Upkeep, and don’t use Naval Cap 0:22 HOWEVER it can be Countered by ONE Cruiser with the Carrier Computer, which would Pin-Down the Armies as they get in “Combat-Lock“ and be Unable-To-Move 0:31 How do we Alleviate this Problem? When an Enemy is in a System with YOU, position your Ships Behind a Planet or Habitat, and when they get Close Enough to the Planet but BARELY NOT in Range of your Ships, Embark your Cheap-Armies, so they can Soak the Enemy First Strike, your First Strike Lands, Their Ships get Devastated, and you just WON the Battle! 0:50 This is also Possible with Naked-Corvettes, and it Can’t be Countered by “Combat-Lock“ 0:54 HOWEVER it is More Expensive as it Costs Alloys #stellaris #meme #memes
