You are bemused to note that your MotherShip did not even bother to attend the battle, determining it a lost cause from the start.
You wonder if you should have added the remote self destruct feature after all ... although maybe its best you did not.


Who inserted an remote self destruct feature on my MS? :-s [-X :shock:

The Minimum on a normal attack to do damage has been raised from 30 to 35% ..so you now need at least 35% of the defenders defense, in attack power, to mass or otherwise launch a successful assault (or assult). This also applies to mothership damage (in fact, sensing a slaughter, attacking MS will not show up to battle to be beaten...)

does that mean a MS will not engage if your strike is not 35% of the enemy defense?
or that a MS will not engage if its stats are not 35% of the enemy MS stats

BMMJ tested this on beta.
if your strike + ms is >35%, then your MS will engage their MS, allowing you to mass theirs, if yours is bigger
if your strike by itself is <35%, then your MS will engage, but you wont do any damage to their defence

if your strike + MS <35%, then no engagement at all

Nope it doesn't work like that.

If your strike > 35% of their defense the MS engages. If it is not then it does not. It only calculates it added to the MS after it is allowed to engage, so it's not possible to hit with MS if the strike is less than 35% of the defense.
