Out of idle curiosity..

[Afentius]

Out of curiosity, I don't have any anti-spies at the moment, but how easy would it be to kill 20k spies with a spy lvl of 1? Does the spy lvl have a huge difference or not with how many spies you kill while attacking/massing?

If asked, I can provide the ID

(mods, I figured here is more appropriate than the noob section, thanks)

Anti-Covert Action: This is calculated by taking the square root of your (anti-spy level PLUS 2, to the power of 2), (for easy math, it will double each 2 levels), times each Anti-Covert/Intelligence Technology Upgrade, times race bonus if applicable, times the number of anti-intelligence agents your have. Then add the number of anti-intelligence agents you have to that number, and multiply it by 10.
( ( (sqrt(2^(spyLvl+2)) x spies x %increase techs x %increse race ) + spies ) * 10 )

ah furian dont listen to her...in fact after you read that your head gets...kind of dizzy and you wish you wouldnt have been born...use this technique...and I am for real:

As anti has anyway double the action as regular spy...(for example 1k spys in level 2spy is equal to the 500 spys on level 1antispy...in anti/covert action..).so you just have the same action as he/she does...and mass him firstly...and then...no anties will die

[Munchy]

A good tactic if you are massing a bunch of people in a row, simply raid them until their defenses are gone, and then do normal attacks for spy killing. This is, ofcourse, assuming they are within range for you to raid.

[Afentius]

Of course.. thanks.. any more tips on massing?

[SVaRuN]

hehe now you want a massing lesson not only anti...demanding mate...get yourself a boost planets...
Steal them from replijake as he has one of a kind....

Seriously...planets boosting % in attacks will reduce the after massing costs on your weponary and reduce the numbers of supers killed...

Perhaps...mass with as much as equevalent strike to yours opponents defence as possible...and after you have wooped him good...get some smaller attackers(with lower strikes...to finish him off...it will also save you some naq for repairs....it is not necesary to attack with huge strikes after they are down to a reasonable defence action...also why a huge strike to match your opponent and not only 1/4 of it...that would also suffice..it isnt only about the losses...the attacks are limited...before person redraws from the physical plain of an existence...

OH and yeah...mass him while he is asleep will ya...

I didnt understand that so does it really matter what level you have.

[Reality]

It is all about Player A's covert action + DefCon % modifier versus Player B's AntiCovert action + A's attack compared to B's attack % bonus.

Do not forget that if you have no defense, or if it is destroyed, I have seen bonuses as large as 300% to the AntiCovert power of the assailant.
