War Advice (Little Upsilon)

returned from holiday to find all slaves taken. Was told I 'fought well' - yet I was not around to fight. I am level 5 war ready. Before all stolen slaves go into secure mode - would like to attack. game won't allow me to drop my secure mode (says I am above 500 war index- kinda lame) - Advice from a pro - best way to inflict MAX damage to enemy before assets are sold. - respectfully - ASGARD

Find a Nukeable target without protection from Nukes. Find someone who will sell you some Nukes. Then Nuke every 15 mins until your stopped or you run out of Nukes

Asgard - See my post to you in the general forum...it's good advice.

Thanks nix and whiteboy - I have been building lotasa nukes so I dont need to buy any I don't care about what the consequence is - thats for the weak - its all or nothing - Will nuke everyone - nix I like that!! LOL

Again - How do I drop secure mode???

you could always get another country and make that your main in secure mode, then your other will be a slave and should be out of protection

Nix - The people that took his countries are not idiots, they know what they are doing and have solid nuke d in their countries.

Hordo - Please listen to me, your country likely won't last an hour and it doesn't matter how many nukes you have, you won't get off enough to actually land one before you lose that country. I'm not sure if you understand nuke d but if you do then you will understand what I am saying...if you don't then you REALLY shouldn't be going after them...

Jiang Hu Warriors got the right idea. Then, if you find unprotected targets, (you would be surprised how many Nukes I've got through (Going BOOM, hitting the target) in my Wars, Vets included), fill it with Nukes and as many Nukes bases as you can (all full 2001 garrisoned) Then let rip

Do recon first though.

Hordo - I am truly trying to help you here and I know that you are just going to lose another country by pressing this issue and the advice you are receiving is from people who clearly have not looked at the situation in it's entirety so here it is:

Hordo's entire fed was wiped out by Keto, Serpent, budman and Slade. Keto and Serpent are members of my fed on LU and from both FB and LU they have A LOT of war experience, I can't speak for budman and Slade but it is my understanding they can hold their own. Hordo's main has 80 mil pop, 27T in mil assets and what looks like about 10k ints and 5k helis and very little offense...his capital/city garrison is 200/200/200...forts have no garrisons of note and there is little if no fed air support.

Now that the situation has been defined, I'll give my opinion again for the final time. Hordo has 0 chance of keeping that country if he brings it out of secured mode and declares war on the group mentioned above. Are there sometimes holes in nuke d for various reasons? Sure...even if there were there would still be 0 chance that he keeps that country and as I said before he would be lucky to get off 3 or 4 nukes before it was gone. Even assuming ALL 3 or 4 landed...is that worth it for him to lose a 80 mil pop country that he has clearly spent a good amount of time on? Absolutely not.

Once again Hordo, I'm trying to protect you here, you've already lost a lot and just from the conversations I can tell that you don't exactly have a lot of war experience against veteran players with lots of war experience.

Those of you advocating or thinking that you are helping Hordo here by telling him to pull that country out of secured and to start dropping nukes as if they'll really make that big of a difference should recognize the situation and stop encouraging Hordo to lose the last country he has on LU.

I'm not usually this nice and I personally could score a bunch of GC if/when he pulled that country out of secured but I'm trying to help in this situation...if it comes out of secured and decs though then the niceness is gone.

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.

Confucius

If revenge is greater than survival (which after reading your last post again seems it is), I would use Jiang Hu Warriors tactic. C3 guerrilla warfare, but with added sneak attacks. It will put you in alot of debt and it will take alot of time and patience. But if you test their resolve enough, they might, in a couple of months, be willing to offer you a peace deal on your terms.

Also, always be on the look out for Nuke-able targets. Keep your nukes in your secured main and transfer them out to C3's when you have located a target.
There is only one thing more embarrassing to a vet than being Nuked. And that's losing their country.

Happy hunting.

Oh yea. Remember to switch off the automatic build new corp and adjust the new workers to MLM when you take over a C3. Every $ and MLM will count.

That's a more reasonable response...not a tactic likely to work...but a way to go about attempting revenge without losing massive amounts of assets.

Good luck.
