Title: Strat defense
Post by: Solar10 on November 13, 2007, 12:18:16 PM

Now with the big maps back in rotation there are more opportunities to attack strat at close range.  This has lead to low level buff flights carpet bombing the strats.  At low alt the strat is undefended as the puffy ack only fires at targets 3K and more above it (IIRC).  I would love to see some auto ack mixed up with the puffy so there is a better defense balance.

Or you can take off in a fighter plane, fly over there and blow up the bombers.

Not if a zone base was captured and your factory is now surrounded my enemy fields.

Then that is poor planning on the zone base capture.

If you let your zone base get taken, you deserve to have your factories get hosed.

Except then the factories become the property of the opponents.

When you take a zone base all the strats in that zone become yours.  The porking is then done by the country that just lost the strat base and their strats.

Seems to me if you take a strat base and can't defend the newly captured strats too bad.
