Tip #4 Defeating a more powerful player

Defeating a more powerful player

1. Reinforcing your base with your teammates seldom works and just costs everyone a lot of repair costs
1. It is possible if you get enough players but in the end, you will pay more for repair costs than the attacker
2. Defending with tier 1 ships (T1) does not cost much to repair, and if you follow the tips in "Defending your base," you will not lose much
3. If you have an attack carrier, send it alone (no ships) to attack your enemy. The worst that can happen is that it is sent to the repair yard
1. The enemy will be forced to defend with good ships or he might lose some of the plunder he has accumulated on his decks
2. He will lose T2 and T3 ships even if he wins the engagement
3. In the end, you might lose 600 T1 ships (100k to repair) defending your base, and he loses 200-300 T3 ships defending his (1 M plus UR) to repair. You technically lost both battles, but he spent more to attack you, so he actually loses
4. Why would he defend with T3 and not use the same strategy? Because the bully is arrogant. He will attack a bunch of players at once. He will not have time to use his plunder. He will be over the storehouse limit. He cannot afford to lose even one battle or he will lose some of his precious plunder. Therefore he is forced to defend with good ships. You are not forced to defend with good ships because you should have nothing on your decks to lose
