i did attack the airforce defense units once, but with disastrous results. the second time:

200 interceptors + 200 helis <- the enemy
vs.
816 fighter planes <- me

result? enemy lost 128 helicopters and 22 interceptors; i lost 346 fighter planes. this is prohibitive! i can't afford to do this over and over again... what should i do?
thank you!

you should try moving your land units closer to the air defense units that will make your air attacks more effective against interceptors and helis

the game also makes the first attack on a country much easier then subsequent ones...

1. Yes, missle intercepters "intercept the missles"
Defensive missles return fire.

2. Well, there is only light or Heavy. Light refers to defensive. Since you said defensive I'll go with that. 3600 Light Tanks. I don't agree with that setup but this is not the time nor the place.

3. I highly recommend against forts in your main country. It's an unneeded cost. Your main is not for war on GR. If you feel the need to anyways, or you have a war slave, go to "Purchase Defensive weapons".
Make sure you have money to spend.


Since people don't tend to attack noobs (you don't have anything we want) you may want to build yourself economically first. This will allow you to be able to support a military.

When attacking a C3's air force, target a town (the little red houses) or county (the little yellow houses) and "attack defenses" with your fighter division. This ensures that your fighters only engage the C3's air force and aren't subjected to anti-aircraft missiles from the ground.
Also, group some attack drones with your fighters. These are targeted first by the enemy air force and are cheaper to replace than fighter planes.
Additionally, I recommend not using ground units to attack defenses because losses are high. Use a bombing wing consisting of some precision bombers and attack drones to clear defenses first and then use your tanks to blow up the undefended cities.
