I used this tactic many times to retake a planet after they invaded and never once having retaken a planet, or invaded it did I build any kind of defence on it because it was a piece of p*ss to retake.”įrom Shwatzy: “If you see an enemy fleet heading toward one of your planets, send your fleet with at least one tank near that planet. Richard Harper uses this technique to capture planets: “I usually send weak fleets against the Dargslan giant sized but extremely poorly armed fleet, and once I have destroyed the bulk of the fighter defences I retreat, they bugger off back where they came from. For this reason it is probably the ultimate delaying tactic: buying you time to prepare while enemy resources are tied up shuttling across space. The time it takes them to travel to and from your space is far greater then the time it takes you to build and equip new ships. This works best for those races that attack you from the other side of the map.
After the space ‘battle’ (which consists of one missile blowing up your fighter), the alien fleet will turn around and go home!” Solution – Send a fleet consisting of one fighter to intercept them in deep space. You have no hope of destroying their vastly superior fleet, or of winning the ground battle. As for me, I only use it on Dargslan because I find it fun to crush other fleet I come across.”įrom Dan Ward: “Scenario – Alien fleet on its way to one of your planets. This trick may or may not work on the other races you fight in Admiral or Grand Admiral Rank. The vessel(s) you sent will be destroyed, and the invading Dargslan fleet will actually retreat back to their colony. What you can do is simply get any of you outdated vessel (destroyer 1, cruiser 1, destroyer 2, whatever) and send it to attack the invading Dargslan fleet.
Early on, any confrontation will result in your fleet being destroyed.
