Victory Condition: max. cap ships at lvl10

That would be an interesting victory mode: cap ships would have to be maxed in fleet capacity and level.

To throw a wrench in, infinite XP tech and that Advent resurrection tech would have to be disabled/replaced. Capital ships also only get XP proportional to the damage they inflicted to ship when it dies.

It should be Titan reaching level 10 as a victory condition. If you have a level 10 titan you almost won the game regardless.

Considering how difficult those things are to kill that may be too easy.

When I have a titan with say 5-8 cap ships, yes this mode would work well since that takes a long time. When all those cap ships hit 10 and I'm still fighting other titans and full SB's the titan hits 10 quickly.

 

Max fleet capacity having all cap ships 10 is interesting, but I've really only done this the times I went for the no frigate achievement. There'd also be a large imbalance since the loyalists could just sit in their grav wells with 2 SB's, a titan, and their defensive bonuses. It wouldn't be possible to kill a capital ship and force them to have a ship back at level 1, but honestly who is more likely to lose ships in that scenario.

That would never work in multiplayer, you hardly ever get one level 10 cap, let alone 14 plus a titan to 10. And the AI really isn't competent enough to do it either...

Also there is concern that the titan can also pirate farm.

It could have a difficulty to the victory condition. Easiest would be 2 caps. moderate 6, hard 10 and hardest 14.
