Agreed. What if we plan a "rolling defense"?

For instance, we can allocate PEACE to defend our shores from transports as a primary job, but still have a navy for additional protection. Whereas the Drones and ourselves would provide overlapping zones of protection between our land bases THEN amass an invasion sortie. Depending on which base of which faction can pump them out, I would say have rovers positioned in such a way where they can provide immediate assistance to places under attack.

I've done this a couple of times and while it may be taxing, resource-wise, I've found that it helps in either repulsing or stalling invaders when the s*** hits the fan. If someone has a better plan, I'm all for it.

What if PEACE ran a diversion bombardment while we begin our mobilization?


Our homeland is not deep enough for a 'rolling defense'. If they land on our shores in force they will immediately start taking our coastal cities and destroying our crawlers.

Too much of our empire is on the shores (the island is not big enough, otherwise).

We can and should prevent them from approaching our shores.

Although we should maintain our own (and the Drones) security, a good offense will make the CyCons react to us once we take the fight to Uni (although let's not launch the invasion too soon).

I understand. But shouldn't PEACE contribute to our protection as well? Granted our island isn't the largest, but at least it would provide mutual zones of protection. My idea may not be the best, but I'm just throwing different ideas out.

I think it should be PEACE's main job to make sure that the CPU doesn't get close enough to land on our shores....and we should, of course, build up the Hiverian Air Force.

Yes.

Let's not cripple ourselves to get one, but it should be one of our highest priorities.

What about CPU? How are they when it comes to military? I'm thinking tech, units, methods, anything. "Know thy enemy" and all that.

I'm betting that they have a sizeable army considering that they went to war against PEACE....they should still be in "conquer" mode.

....anyone want to take over?

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

We need to do like Stalin and cripple the nation for victory

He knew the Nazis would come, and ruined the economy and killed millions in order to get the Read Army up to scratch. We must do likewise.

it is ok to patrol with a litle air fleet, but 1st- dont forget to actualy do it with the planes (patrol), 2nd - i beleave we'll need more planes then foils for the same patrol. another advantage of air fleet is that it is powerfull enough to fill other tasks afterwards.

any way what we have now is too much filosofy.

i'd ask chairman voltair or eon of the ministers to poll few points for strategy of war and lets begin making the lower level desitions the moment poll is over.

time is crusial cammarads
