Cheaters in the game.

The players Azuka, HYMY & Yankee are cheating in the game. They can disregard the defenses of any country & simply take it with not even a shot fired. This isn't fair gameplay. On top of that, they are bullies who harass other players & demean them. The Newspapers do not even log their attacks, so there is no paper trail to account for their "wins". they simply take whatever they want & there is not defense that can stop them.

After a very quick very simple search on FB:

Azuka's capital 'Charge Through' has offensive attacks as recently as 2 game months ago showing up in newspaper. It even appears that he took some not-insignificant losses in his offensive weapons during the series of attacks. The sheer volume of his wars suggest a brute force approach that frankly is working well in taking soft targets of opportunity.

Hymy's slave 'Centralia' shows offensive attacks as recently as Jan 5671. He appeared to inflict some heavy damage with minimal losses, but the target appears very soft at this stage with minimal to no air defense. Hymy is a known number cruncher and frequently tests optimization strategies in C3 warfare (and readily shares his findings with everyone publicly), and many principles against soft/uninvolved defenders directly carry over.

Yankee's slave 'FBC 08' similarly shows offensive attack

Here is the link for the newspaper where I took one of his.

I opened a hole in his defense division coverage with Conventional and LBCB, and bombed out the units after eliminating the AAMBs before they could be resupplied. Then I just stared the stealth bomber slaughter of the interceptors. Found out later that Yankee was doing the same to the country next to it. So between us we just destroyed his airforce with stealth bombers.

After the ground defenses were destroyed. and the undefended forts eliminated. I think Stealth bombers may be a little more powerful.

Yep I compared my notes to the the docs. Interceptors use to have a hit rate of 5% and damage of 90%

Now it's 2% hit and 5% damage, so they are useless against SB

Doom is like many players in this game. They never read the docs, they never plan, they never prepare and then whine someone is cheating when they open their mouths and get it closed for them.

Adapt or die it's pure and simple.

If anything thank Andy. I mentioned one simple change I wanted to see and he gave us this. Now come up with a defense, we have.

Well the GM shouldn't make a change like that without telling anyone.

He told everyone the documents were updated. He told everyone changes were made to make SB's more effective (as they should be) and reduce some of the threats to them.

They can still be slaughtered during auto response with slightly more damage done.

They aren't all powerful, but they have made it where the days of sitting behind an impenetrable defense and not having to fight back are probably over. It once again takes combined arms to effectively fight an opponent and makes many weapons nobody ever uses anymore a necessity.

SB's have always been effective if used correctly. The problem was having them last long enough to be able to use them. If the ability to turn off counter attacks with an addition to the drop-down menu is something the GM isn't willing to do, I see it as a positive change.
