Space Engineers: How to use Destroyers Properly (PVP/Roleplay) 

From what I remember, destroyers were developed to deal with torpedo boats, then became the thing that they were meant to stop, becoming torpedo boats.

A fascinating video! I didn't realize that our strategies mirrored IRL tactics so closely!

This gives the vibe of "fractured space", a game that used to exist

Great video! Please do more of these

The tactics you described remind me strongly of WW2 Naval tactics. I'm loving it. And your block limits for each class of vessel.

great work GetBrocked! :D looking forward to more videos like this!

Interesting video, I really like the tactic that the factions use.

quite enjoyable to watch. love learning new things. especially things related to space ships and combat :D

**PRAISE THE TANK!**

Great video going to check out Outlands series!

Very good video. You might be able to get a weapon that performs a similar function to the torpedo by allowing the destroyers to mount a short range type of "FOB" high calibre gun, possibly balanced by low ammunition count or long reload times. This would give destroyers a genuine capital ship killing weapon like the torpedo without them turning into long range artillery pieces

Is there any place for small grid ships in these kind of engagements? With shields, I'd assume not... The only combat I've really done is with vanilla blocks vs enhanced NPCs (e.g. reavers) but in those situations 2-3 heavily armed and mobile fighters can take out a good number of enemy guns or thrusters.

My ship would be a cruiser? But it's all missles not sure if you got modded weapon batteries I just use vanilla SE

Do flak/anti-missile turrets work well with this weapon mod and the typical amount of incoming fire? I ask because the Rider doctrine seems like it might benefit from a specialized heavy destroyer, with double light armor and sacrificing the standard armament for complete anti-missile guns. Like the Imperial Lancer in Star Wars (old school legends stuff). It is intended solely as anti-fighter support and has no turbolasers. It would limit available options, but provide specific defense for their most important vessels against the most common and dangerous type of enemy fire. Also, thanks again for making these!

Game mimic real life. Strategy comes from experience and for this people to use the same strategy speak volume about how effective and common the strategy is.

With the destroyer fleet should look at the scrap iron flotilla
