Defend against artilhary

Day 19, World Map

I hold a part of spain, and a country from africa is trying to invade in mass force, he has 12 artilhary and when I try to use my boats to destroy the boats crossing the channel, the artilhary defends well, what can I do?

Artillery don't really do much damage to ships...so with a force of any size this shouldn't be a huge problem.

If you can get fast units in to close on those artillery, they should be done for. If they have no AA, use tactical bombers.

but he has a lot of artilhary, my destroyer was almost at 100 life and its now 40 and didn't get close

Destroyer does 0 damage vs land. You need cruiser or battleship.

Also I don’t recommend EVER using destroyers. Subs are cheaper, faster to produce, and are good against all ships except for destroyer. However, 2 subs can destroy a destroyer and 2 subs is the same cost as a destroyer. Also, subs are invisible to all land units. So, yeah, probably should use subs next time. If you need to attack land units, use cruisers or battleships.

You cant handly enemy with hairy arti.

It is a hacker or cheater. Common player have only common artillery, not hairy one.

I shave mine

its spelled artillery... you had me confused thinking there was some artillery strategy named artilhary.

Read the units information to learn the Attack and Defense values. Only then you will know what is best for any required task.

Also in any strategy game or real life problem the most important is carefull observation.

The proper word is "artillery". Practice "paying attention" exercises to read and write properly.

Good luck.

since the day is 19 and the destroyer had hp 100 i can assume u were playing as axis with lvl 5 destroyers, and the African nation i assume to be Axis as well with lvl 5 artillery [since u didnt specify if it was not SP] .

As u can see artillery on land has a longer range than a destroyer and 10 lvl5 artillery pieces in a sttack can very well badly damage a destroyer while not being damaged themselves. i would advise using battleships, Tactical bombers and Railroad Guns to take them [artillery stack] out.

this information only works for CoW 1.5 only though.
