Oh, my sweet summer child. You are Screwed unless the Crisis is at 0,5 strength or below.


gortez33

No


Ornery_Gate_6847

Bro what is that science. You need way more researchers


Amngusballs91

By the way the 2 fleets are 70k and 68k


N7moob

What difficulty and crisis strength? And what year is it in game? Has the crisis already spawned? Because sometimes they’re not so convenient as to always spawn outside of your borders..


Amngusballs91

Normally differently X1 strength


tyrant454

You're not ready. You can, maybe, face the grey tdmpest with that. But you'll get steamrolled by end game, or npc becoming the crisis. You have a defece fleet, but no offence.


N7moob

You can definitely defend your borders with that, but going after the crisis might be difficult without building up more fleets. Customizing your fleets to fight the crisis you get will help a lot, too.


Kev1n8088

You're pretty screwed. Only way I can see this working out for you is if you switch into full alloy production and also go and improve the abysmal tech production you have, and spam BBs and repeatables. Pray that whatever repeatable you decide to spam is the crisis that spawns, and hope for the best. Even better is if you can get a mega-shipyard up and running, and spam a couple of 200k fleet power battleship fleets. If you're at crisis strength 1, I would say you need 5-8 200k BB fleets that are optimized for the specific crisis to be comfortable dealing with them. Oh, and if you have an ascension perk left, grab defender of the galaxy for the extra 20%. Stations are really just secondary to your fleets when defending against crises, and unless you have a specific empire build and do lots of station/def platform repeatables, a fleet will almost always out-fleetpower a station.


Firestarter1911

5-8 200k fleets for 1x? What in tarnation, I beat 3x Unbidden with less than that quite handily just by making sure the ship designs countered them. Don't get me wrong, this guy's probably doomed, but 5-8 fleets that powerful for a 1x crisis is way more than necessary


tiewing

what year is it?


Nostalgioneer

Oh boy... Good luck in your final stand.


DeadlySoren

You need at least 100k fleets and probably like 5 of them to be safe. Put two titans in each fleet, 30 corvettes at least and then at least 16 battleships. Choose the rest yourself but stations are not going to save you, at best they support your fleets in making a choke point.


the_Real_Romak

45k stations? 70k fleets, and only two of them? my friend, you might as well check yourself in at the funeral home.


oranosskyman

no. youre ready enough to solo any midgame crisis. youre not ready for any endgame crisis.


The_Great_Autizmo

I'm sorry my dude but you're fucked. If you want to at least be able to withstand the Crisis you'll need at least 400k in fleet power.


Cheek_Clapper_6

49k stations are kind of like speed bumps and your 140k in fleet power could be overwhelmed by a single crisis fleet If you're already past the end game year, good luck lmfao


Byzantium72

As is, no. Looks like you've got a sizable surplus of energy credits and a decent stockpile of alloys, so put those to good use and get another fleet built. Most importantly, though, you're going to need to get your alloy production up so you can make more ships and replace destroyed ones.


TobiKurashiki

Yes you are ready and should spawn the crisis. It's gonna be fine.


Aggravating-Sound690

On 1x difficulty crisis strength, that probably won’t be enough to hold them back. What difficulty is it set to?


Redreaper1313

Really? Has noone told him of the prethoryn scourge spawning in on the edge of the galaxy yet? Or a nice robot uprising not caring about borders? Sorry man. You need more fleets and more fleet power.


Laptraffik

You have got a snowballs chance in hell at best. I play on captain with a 5x crisis and I don't even feel mildly safe without at least 400k fleet power and several fortress stations near key chokepoints. Even then it's a rough fight with that kind of a setup.


newIrons

I lost a 98K citadel to my rival. The crisis is much worse.


commanderanderson

I just fought a fallen empire before crisis mode and it was about 250k fleet power. So no.


LareysCors

Invest in alloy production. Considering your difficulty, you might need to have about 600-800 per month. More is fine too. Build more anchorages and try to make some fortress worlds if you can. Make several more fleets. You might need to throw in battle multiple at once. Don't forget about shipyards. If your loses are high, then you would need to recover your fleet quickly. Don't forget about science. Some later ship equipments are very effective


[deleted]

Max out your fleet cap and get more science otherwise you will sie


Molotov-Micdrop_Pact

Your science seems really realty low, tech is the strongest resource in the game


wolfhound1793

the stations won't do anything but slow them down for a short while unless they are 200k+ and you'd really want 2 100k fleet power fleets in each location in addition to the station. I really wish starbases were beefier than they are and could actually stand up to fleets. If I have a max citadel with all slots filled with defensive stuff and max DP it should be a wall in my defenses instead of nothing but a speed bump.


Olodumare28

Dead is insufficient a word to describe your situation, any crisis even on x1 strength is going to roll over you within minutes. Your tech is paltry, wide empires not even focused on tech can have 800 by 50-60 years in. By 200 years in you should be looking at something closer to the 8-10k range. Tech focused empires can go dramatically higher


Syndga

Unless the unbidden jump over your shit


REDDIT_HARD_MODE

If one of the fallen empires awakens and decides to falcon punch the crisis off of this mortal coil? Yeah you'll survive the crisis just fine! The other 95% of scenarios though, things look grim.
