Last Standing base Failed to repair this game month (Little Upsilon)

'Immorality task force 1'

Bases were sneak attacked in the game month of april.

They failed to repair in may.

I have plenty of construction among other things lol.

It has happened before a few times, but always came between the 21st to the 24th of the game month. A delay perhaps, but it is now may 26th and still nothing. No new sneak attacks or action against the bases since april. Kind of doesn't make much sense.

Again, Same issue again and no response. And also, I think there may be some of us able to set blackout times even after war has started. Maybe I am wrong, but I would ask that someone look into it.

The sneak attacks are being performed on or around the 3rd to 7th of the month. My bases fail to repair on the 18th.


Another funny happening is that my air defense from 2 slaves within air drop distance did not assist in defense, not one helo wing nor an interceptor wing. Both are federated as well.

All on LU.

Do you have supply units and construction available?

Wings could have happened to be too far away.

No LG, I had plenty of construction ...among other things, all my units were freshly put up, and well supplied. The wings were in South Dade, the country fighting was in Unicron West. Plenty of radar planes , and they didn't even touch my defensive base the whole war. So there was definitely a game mechanics problem.

This is prime example of why you don't build a large slave and get negative results because of some kind of error. At least I won't lol.

And let me go a step further, I also had other defenses at different targets well defended and seemed not to respond either. They had ammo too.

Again to add to that ...
On Golden Rainbow declarations were moved to a month later than what the start times were. Last on LU night and just about an hour ago the decs showed live at january, i took a minute to log off and lookie here, the decs are now february.

This happened at least two times on LU.
Not including this time.

How secure is the server?

I believe we have all had bases/fleets not repair at some point...I think that if the bases are destroyed close enough to the 'refresh' date which I believe is the 17th/18th then they won't repair during the refresh. Now if they were destroyed the previous month and didn't repair that does seem odd.

The game docs do not state a range for fed response and I know many assume it is the range shown for ints/helis in the game docs but it is not. I've spoken to someone who emailed the gm's about this and the answer was 1000km for ints...can't remember if helis were asked about or not but I know they are right about there as well possibly a little further. That is right in line with what I have experienced.

I'm fairly certain I know which garrison you are talking about that wasn't responding and the issue was that there was no defensive missile batts in it, just aab, mib and jeeps.

As far as blacko

Worker shorts are your problem WB and not a kink in the game, if you have too much military that is your fault, also if you have defend your country with available weapons if attacked checked on automation, when I declare and whoever isn't fully activated, that is what will happen.

As far as nukes are concerned, the targets are undefended, there are no garrisons in the targets to start. I know this because there are Long range radar planes to check defenses of a target. And I do use them.

I used a c3 to attack a country without blackouts, I nuked WB 005 PM during this period, the next day same time new c3, Blackout was on.

The garrisons, had 50 aamb, all had high quality, and rarely shot down even one plane. I know there were no defensive missile batts, but the defense should have destroyed more nfps, especially since they fire first.

To note this as well Serpent tried to shoot through a similar setup in another cou

Every one of my countries has and has always had (ask Alarich if you can find him) blackout from 2 am to 6 am pst, just as every one of them has that blackout period on FB...I've been doing this ever since I had to wake up at 4 am to fight off 3M on FB.

If a garrison has no DMB's then we will fire just cruisers at it...don't need to fire nfp at the same time...no aerial assault means no AAB's firing.

According to the GM's the range for fed air d response is 1000km, regions don't matter...how far you think it should be doesn't matter, it's just 1000km...your fed air d will respond within that distance and will not respond outside of it.

Worker shortages are a kink in the game as we have seen them when people have 1.5 mil llw and 500k mlm unemployed...the situation with me was not as severe as it was 300k llw unemployed and 150k mlm unemployed, but there is no reason I should be getting dea

WB you aren't the freaking game war genius you puuf your brain up to be. Now, if he was firing cruisers, I had helo wings in range that would have destroyed them.

Second, why are you talking for keto like YOU fought the war for him? Did you? Because if you did, the gms just recently said that they were gonna crack down on that. So be careful. I am not accusing you, but the war you keep trying to school someone on was not your war, it was keto, and i watched the whole fight, he used navy fighter planes. And again, *IF* he was using cruise ships.... my helos should have responded. Did you notice any lost cruise missile ships?

NO.

Again, I am asking GM input on the matter, not your opinion. The problem is that there is either a game mechanics issue or a bug, and it should be addressed, period.

If you have a worker shortage problem, then you need to address that in your own problem thread.

But it is n

I was online speaking with Keto on MSN when the war was going on, he told me what the garrison was...I told him not to even bother blowing up the garrison, hit it with cruisers. You did have a few helis in range to begin with but they were destroyed, that is what we call taking down air d. I'm not sure why you are struggling with this air d situation so much, the helis respond when they are within range, the countries you are talking about that didn't respond *weren't* in range...check the distances between them...is it more than 1000 km? Yes...so they won't respond. When we fight we always take down all air d that will respond.

As I said in the previous post, the base issue *may* be a problem, but I've never seen it. There is no game mechanics issue with the other topics you are mentioning, the war engine is working exactly as it should.

I responded originally to be nice and I tried to explain wha

WB, they weren't destroyed

They were never attacked, where on that newpaper did you see any helos destroyed?


Since you feel so helpful and can't mind your business. Try helping keto on msn get his nuke defenses right. MixMaster WB, his bases aren't defended.

This is what radar planes are for.

As far as the air wings not being in range, there is one of two problems.


The countries I spoke of were out of range.

If this is true, the the problem was being exploited on GR when Aqua got air defense from Dirts country.

Either or, it is one problem, not a zero problem.
