Destroying covert ops

I thought it might be an idea to ask what is the worst part of getting massed by another team of players?

IMO, it's the guy who comes in last with a shed full of attack turns, 1 armed soldier and enough anti covert to kill of millions of covert ops within a very short space of time.

There's no skill in this so maybe the massing of spies should be related to the % of attacks made by another player /s. This would mean that you cannot destroy covert ops unless you have actually made an effort to firstly build a strike and help mass the defence.

The would make things a little more expensive becasue of the purchase and sale of weapons and also the risk the a defence could be built while you're ac'ing resulting in the loss of lots of attackers and ac.

Any comments or further ideas here?

Care to discuss why you think this is a bad idea?

Yes I've be massed lots of times and massed millions of spies myself. During my last war DDE v's TA, I didn't lose any spies!

Just incase you missed it.....there is no skill in sending in 1 armed soldier to kill off spies. There are also no losses unless a defence is built while massing, whilst an attacker has alot to lose when taking out a defence!

I like the idea, just as I like your assumptive responses to game suggestions :lol:

but it would also mean you'd have to be an all-rounder, or you're completely useless in a war.... if you get my point

not only do you need a high attack (for killing def) but then also for AC'ing, that means smaller players can contribute nothing to massing and they should be able to do learn ...



(disclaimer: i have no problems with all-rounders, or ppl who specialise in 1 or 2 areas alone)

No need for high attack: just do strategy of killing troops in mass, then use 15ATs attacks to damage weapons, when 70+% weapons damaged, ACer can end massing of the def.
