Tactics

I played now 4 games actively, but I have the feeling that nearly all my enemies are noobs. By reading the forum I find the most post are written by noobs. They wish for a certain unit because they can not use the existing units probably.

There are some bugs which you can use for your advantage.

Airplanes on an airport are airborne, if by attacking them with ground forces they will be airborne. Groundunits do not have a strong attack ratio against air units especially armored units. By placing bombers on airfield when tanks attack your airfield will likely result that your enemy will loose every tank and you will have hardly any damage on your planes, the same is true for amphibious operations.

The stratigic goal is to destroy the army of your enemies.

which we can split into two parts:

Destruction of factories and resources.

Killing the troops.

1. defences

There exist two units which have a better offensive value than defensive (art and bombers). This concludes that even a weaker army can defeat a stronger army. The moving army is always the attacker, if both armies are moving then two calculations are taking place, with one the defender and the other the attacker vice versa.

You can use that by placing an army in the way of another and when it is soften up you turn to attack mode which speeds up the killing and you can use your army somewhere else.

2. capital

Try to capturer the capital of your enemy shortly before the next day starts. By capturing the capital your provinces will increase by 10 %, The provinces which you captured previously this day will have 35 % and not 25 % and will not revolt.

On the other hand your enemy has not a chance to build a new capital before the calculation which will reduce his moral even further.

A plane that is considered aloft 24/7 in an airbase is a big problem , no matter how many tanks you have marching at a province with an airbase , i place a couple bombers on the airstrip and you are never making it through. This said i dont do this since i dont like exploiting bugs and calling it Tactics / Master Strategy / or being ignorant and say that it is normal
if some one let his bombers block airfiled vs tank it is a dream for me. i kill whole airforce with some rocketstrikes + my airforcestrikes. + if they block with only 1 - 3 aircrafts, you can roll over the fields, never use tanks without mech/motinf or at least inf, and if you have time to wait, use AA's. And in last some days i have seen, my tanks rolled over airfield, and enemy airforces turned in trucks. killed after 1 or 2 hours. Also *bug* is not a really bug, and even absolutly dangerous for user.

thats why i said there is very little you can do , it only takes the player a few seconds to switch his bombers to another location after your AA has being travelling for hours and is few minutes away from the airbase
if you are online while he switch to other location, you have won a jackpot, single rocket can kill up to 12 landed refueling aircrafts, with 4 rockets, or couple interceptors/tac.bombers or even strat.bombers you can kill his airforces within 20 minutes., timing is a key.

It still has to be fixed.

The past is a foreign country.

Ok, enough. I read through this thread and it's "Planes are OP and never land! It's a bug!" "No it's not" "Yes it is! It needs to be fixed!" That, along with a brief conversation between Bill and BlackPrince is the jist of this thread. Since nobody has anything new to say, I'm closing the thread.
