C3 War Guide

There are 3 different methods for taking over c3's. As you rise in war levels I recommend switching from 1 to the other. This guide will show you how and why. Also some methods are cheaper, or faster than others.

(War levels 1-3)

I like to use an airforce to fight at these low war levels. A c3 has very few interceptors and no stealth bombers to contend with. Plus it's a lot faster I find. You will still need land units for painting.

Setup 4 land units with jeeps only if you want to save cash. If not use whatever land units you have. Begin painting soon as the war starts. Always paint thoroughly.

Set up Air Force Attack and Bombing Wings. Comprise these wings of 300 fighters and 100 bombers only. Use these units to go against the c3 air defence.

To do that select a town or a country within the enemy c3. Use your fighter/bomber wings and attack the defence of that town or county. Importan

Correction

Stealth Bombers do not come into play until war level 5.

cool guide... personally I use a group of OAAMB to take out air defense and MRMB to take out the defenses of targets.

Thanks for this great guide.

Thanks guys

That's another way to do it Frankie. You don't really need shields. I do it so I only ever have to replace 1 weapons system, Bombers or MRMB's.

How do you paint targets?

You move land forces into the country you are attacking,systematically taking enemy territory under your control. A must to win any war

This guide helped alot up to 5 trill and my country is stronger then ever thanks a bunch

Nice 1. Glad to have helped.

Thanks Lucky. Just moved up to WL 3 & noticed it was taking a bunch of fighters to kill the interceptors. Didn't know about the bombers as shields, but was setting up offensive AA batteries as new long range divisions hoping to help. You didn't mention Missile Interceptors, are they not worth it?

Your welcome. For ground attack use mid range missile batts as sheilds. Plus only use 1 kind of attack, ground or air. Ground destroys heli's air destroys ints. It's a waste of ammo if you killing both.

Missile intercetors are a defence weapon. You dont need them to fight c3's

I have Missile Interceptors in my ground units I would paint with, & have close to the target so the Fighters & Bombers would be more effective. When I did this the report would say "losses were reduced by missile interceptors" or something similar, so I thought they were useful in reducing offensive losses. Maybe they just aren't worth the expense with your methods since losses are already so low?

No it doesn't work like that. Although it does make sense that it should work that way. But no, your defence weapons only fire when fired upon by offence weapons.

If i remeber correct. Haven't fought a battle in a while, plus the only part of the news I pay attention to is losses. The missile interceptor message is for the country being attacked. Not the attacker.

Bump, for the good, up to date info for newer players.

This thread has been cleaned. Any more off-topic posts will be removed.

The actual topic is very helpful to new players. Thanks

bump again

Okay, I'll post this here as it seems logical. I just spent about two hour clue as to what I bought or spent.

Julia Child and Ghram Kherr just might be able to figure out how to make a military unit but I couldn't with two sheets of scrap paper, it's 1 build a base then a supply but it needs to be mobile to attack but then you need ammo and two eggs, 1 cup of milk and wala a unit.

Suffice it to say that making an army is a length and for a game, overly complicated. I'm trying but I'm hopelsssly lost and this is ne3ded to get to level 3. If I can't understand it I might as well quit, right?

I have a tendency to drone and I apologize for this. Aries was very patient in helping me with my economy, so kudos to Aries for his help and patience.

Just a silly little question. Since the bombers are just shields in your Fighter squadron, can you get bomber at just 120 quality, then get high Q bombers for your Bombing squadron? Seems a waste to buy high Q bombers for just a shield. Or would that cause me to lose more bombers than otherwise?

All the bombers you buy combine together in your country inventory and average their quality together. You could keep them separate through some maneuvering using space, but it seems like it would be more work than it was worth.

When winning the war I took control of the country. My question is I don't want it to be a slave country I wanted it to be integrated in to my country so I don't have two different pages to go too. Is there a way to integrate the country or no.

You can transfer the population of that country into your main. If your main is over 20 million population you can transfer 400,000 unemployed workers a game month. 200,000 of your country is under 20 million.

To do this you have to destroy/cancel all of the corporations in the country you want to drain.( I suggest keeping 3 corporations in tact after a war so the country doesn't start automatically building them )Once the war is over go to Automation. Uncheck ALL boxes. Then go to Trade -> Trade Overview -> Details of all products currently being purchased and cancel all of them. This keeps the slave from using up its surplus money. After you're done go back to your main country. Go to Departments -> Labor -> Exchange Professionals With Others -> Click "exchange more professionals" Then type in the name of the slave you wish to take from. Afterwards you'll see a list of worker types and the number y

I ran into a slight oddity.
From my slave country, I could only transfer 200K.
But from my main country, I could move 400K.
So, the country you're logged in at the time matters.
Weird.

It is the population of the country you are moving people to. Your main likely has over 20M population. You slave may not. Countries with over 20M can import 400k per game month. Countries under 20M can only do 200k.

I cant rise my war nevel to one. Im on nevel two, help!
