23:50 Monitors aren't invulnerable anymore. Either Monitors got nerfed and enemy weapons buffed or both. I struggle to keep my Monitors alive even with all the right mods and an appropriate officer. I think maybe more story points on some of the mods and elite officer skillz might be needed.
Monitors are still VERY difficult to crack--the problem that I'm noticing is that they like to drop their Fortress Shield in an attempt to get off a few pot shots, even if all they have is their built-in flak cannons. With their abysmal flux stats, they can get quickly overloaded in this state. >.
@@Kurazarrh I hadn't considered it was a change in the AI making the ship do stoopid things. Ugh... It's like we now need two Monitors so they can support each other.
at 19:19 you say that you are doing fine. and i don't think so. im not a expert at the game, hell im watching a guide but I would really recommend looking up combat doctrine. Here are some simple videos on the topic: ua-cam.com/video/zz3JmXSEM4o/v-deo.html
Haha yeah this battle was a bit of a mess. I didn't really pay enough attention to my fleet because I was distracted trying to use the civ rally points, to very little effect. It's okay, though. Crew is expendable! They don't have families! XD
Haha, honestly, the Odyssey's appearance has grown on me. I used to hate it being a long, white-and-blue poo. Maybe if it was just slightly less lumpy and more streamlined, it wouldn't evoke that thought!

The Odyssey is good, but it is so ugly
