Aries C3 War Guide (Air)

Greatest advice I've seen

Do you have to wait 7 days to exchange goods?

Does anyone know how I return my Air Transport Units from the country I've just conquered?

I can't find an option to do it anywhere, other than dismantling the units.

they should return on their own ... hey if you just conquered a country the pilots are probably taking a little R&R.

They didn't, even after 2 months. I don't even think the climate there was particularly nice for R&R - lazy buggers!

I dismantled the units and reformed them. Strangely, I did this after dropping the country - my units were still shown as being in foreign territory.

My first war at level 4 has not started well.

I attacked the defences of a county with stealth bombers and they got wiped out before exhausting the C3's interceptors.

What have I done wrong?

You should try to get rid of their air defenses before using stealth bombers.

Is that by drawing them out with a Fighter Plane/Precision Bomber unit attack on the defences of a city or county, or by attacking the air defence units directly?

No.

Build a unit, bomber unit, 300 fighters 100 bombers, and click a town to attack and choose to bomber unit. Then when on attack interface, click (attack target defense) and the bomber unit will attack, inwhich the defense interceptors respond, and will be destroyed, depending on number of wings will be iterations for attack.

ps: air transport units are like supply units they do as they please.

My bomber unit (300 fighters/100 bombers) was wiped out in 4 iterations attacking the defences of a town.

The country's interceptors were still responding.

Make sure the quality of your weapons and ammunition are around 330

They're at 300 (the max you can order). Would the extra 30 really make a significant difference?

I also had a unit within 35km of the target which I believe is supposed to improve accuracy

you can "order" 330 quality .. sometimes it works sometimes it changes to "any".

310 quality seems to be the best I can get reliably.

And have multiple air and bombing things so you can knock out interceptors in waves of attacks

1. If you are going to use Fighters/bombers to bleed interceptor units, pick on a county or some other target with no defense and use the attack defense button there.

2. There is more than one way to skin a cat.

Well, I've just had 3 more units wiped out by enemy interceptors and still not eliminated their units.

Has anyone got any advice on what type of units to use, their composition, and what to target at in a C3 at war level 4?

That said, I can no longer afford to replenish my military so I might have to wait a bit to rebuild my finances.

If you follow the guide carefully, you will do fine. If you don't read it very closely, you will die, badly.

Hint #1: If I put a word in all CAPS, it is that way for a reason. Stop on that word. Seep it in and understand the reason it is in caps. Hastily move forward without is bad news man.

Before my reset I used this guide up to war lvl 5 with good results. I've found a different strategie for the higher war levels. But I can confirm that it is VERY important to read it to the letter. (Capsing is so 1999:P)

You need quite a lot of money to get this started but DON'T take lower quality goods. It's really important to have good quality troops.

you can completely ignore this guide, it does not work anymore , at all, at war level 2

anyone has a guide that works in 2019 at war level 2 ?

this guide just make you lose all your fighters in first hit. and yes, its followed to the T

also, why im forced to fight war level 2 immediately after the first war ?

from the game docs: When a player at war level 1 declares a war against a C3 country, she will have the choice to fight a C3 country of war level 1 or a C3 country at war level 2.

i didnt had any option to select war level 1, was only war level 2 or cancel. i only fought 1 war till now, the first one that got me from level 0 to level 1. this was the 2nd war.

I am pretty sure it works. did you have fighters and bombers in single unit and if you used attack defenses?

Interceptors scale up faster than helicopters as you move up war levels. Optimal route is through missiles. Use offensive AA to break helicopters and then mid range Missiles to attack ground Defense and target.

yes, this guide is a waste of $

attacking target defences (not the target) with 330 quality everything

Terra Povra (the attacked country,C3WL2) reports:

The country lost 25 missile interceptor batteries, 12 defensive missile batteries and 300 interceptors.
The country used 645 missile interceptors in the defense.
532 soldiers were killed and 1547 were wounded.
The defence was assisted by Defense Interceptor Wing Oildale and Garrison TG5779.
The attack added 0.04 damage points. The War Index is now 56.61

Letiland (the attacker,WL1) reports:

Fighters01 lost 120 precision bombers and 35 fighter planes.
Fighters01 lost trucks, gasoline and military supplies.
The attack may have been reduced or eliminated by Anti Missile Missiles.
755 soldiers were killed and 2165 were wounded.
The War Index remains 53.30

to bad i

not wasted - invested into your knowledge

the enemy had 2 long range divisions, they are both gone after this attack

edit: nah they ar enot gonne, i cant trade 120 bombers for 300 interceptors, there are 6 wings

i guess the next run will kill 1 interceptor wing with much less losses ? will see after i can buy again from market lol

Use batteries in the future, it is cheaper as John says. and you can scale them a lot.
