My standard fleet is usually 3 ISD II, 3 gladiators, 5 Arquitens, and 4 lancers.Ģ) Where you should focus your main forces (just a suggestion)Īs the Empire, I’m assuming you’re playing the full map and standard campaign, I suggest focusing your forces by securing the core worlds and slowly begin expanding outwards. Next you have to have some support vessels in your composition whenever the AI ultimately attacks your fleet after you begin sieging them I suggest utilizing gladiator cruisers (for their point defense ability, nice fighter compliment, and decent firepower) and lancers (the best anti fighter corvette the empire has). These 2 ships dish out a lot of firepower and are your main damage dealers. With the meta of the game being siege warfare on enemy star bases and their fleets, the best ships the Empire has in its disposal which synergies together really well are the Arquitens light cruiser (one of the best ships in the game IMO in terms of its price, firepower, and range) and the ISD 2. 1) Best way to use the Empire fleet, which ships go well together
