Might belong somewhere else but
How do you take out the most covert troops with anticovert troops with the least amount of cost, or with the most covert troops gone down the gutter?
FOr example I guess...
I want to take out 10m covert sitting on zero defense
I have 7 M anticovert and 26 AC tech... and a 600B strike (does that matter??)
WHat would I lose for killing a decent amount of coverts...
Does my att play a role versus a no def? I think I lose more troops if there is one.

Re: Anticovert
You don't lose any AC units when attacking a non-existent defense and the kill the same amount of spies regardless (assuming your AC action is higher than their Covert, plus the multiplier or w/e). I am not sure of the death ratios when AC'ing against a defense though.

Re: Anticovert
You are asking about the least amount of losses? There is two ways.
1) Through defense with a large Anti-Covert level. Eg: Anti-Covert 33 is equivilent to Covert 35. So you have 2 levels of power upon them.
2) Zero the defense (probably the best idea for players off Nox), then AC. Extra turns will be used but you will not lose many men.
I 'believe' attack helps but I do not trust it. I once had 50B+ power over a guy with my strike and it was killing half of what it should have been. Try to match his Covert Strength with your Anti-Covert strength then 15 AT him (only if he has no defense, or if you wish to mass him through a defense the turns used can vary).
Hope that helped somewhat.

Re: Anticovert
I think everyone covered it fairly well, since you state he has 0 def then all you have to do is beat his covert power, and it will be like shooting fish in a barrel after that.
It may require you train more AC units or buy more AC levels to beat his covert.
Defense will kill alot of AC units, but a 0 def kills none.

Re: Anticovert
also remember that if he has 0 defense you dpnt need more than his covert power as
this is in quantum though and i am sure its the same on main

it's 300% on main when there's no def? So you get 4x your AC power....

Re: Anticovert
I'm still confused, how to kill covert with AC when there is a defence?
From what i gather here, say enemy has 1T covert, 1T AC will be able to kill the coverts without losses even when enemy has defence?

NO
If there is a defense present, no matter how small, you will lose AC units as the defense units kill them, not the covert units.
