Playing Stars!

After a while you will find that there is no need to view most battles. There are times, however, when you were sure that you had overwhelming forces and still got your rear kicked. That's where the Battle VCR comes in to play. It is a great place to learn about the characteristics of your opponents' fleets and to determine your opponents' battle strategy.

You start the VCR from the Messages pane. When a battle has taken place, you receive a message summarizing the event. If you click the Goto button, the scanner selection moves to the location of the battle and the button turns to View. If you click on View, the VCR appears.

You can also open the Battle VCR from the Battle Summary report. Just double click on the battle summary in the report.
