Next time, wait for the clan to catch up, get intel, and plan a counterattack.

I did plan and laid it out in the clan forum. I attacked someone that was pure infantry.

I was attacked and lost. :cry:

[OiNk]Beaver Warrior (#110305) sent a Ground Attack against you and you lost the battle. You lost 858 m² and $6 548.

Attacker Losses:
14 Humvees, 14 SAM Tanks, 75 Heavy Tanks and 98 Rifle Infantries.

Defender Losses:
47 Heavy Tanks, 81 Flame Throwers, 8 Research Labs, 4 War Factories, 1 Barracks and 7 Power Plants.

I have already more than made up my losses. My networth is now at ~$410,000.

Um, you just counterattacked and reported that all they had was infantry, man. That's not a plan, really. Doesn't give anyone time to coordinate, perpare, or confer. Your posts amounted to the following:

1. They hit me hard, but I can recover
2. I attacked this guy three times, he's got only infantry
3. Help I need cash they counterattacked me

And all that happened inside of twenty minutes. That's not a plan, that's a reflex action.

Getting intel means using spies to covertly learn of force concentrations, not just attacking and figuring out what they probably have from what they lost. I know that these guys probably have intel on each and every person that they attacked. That gives them a big advantage. Plus, being the smart bastards they are, they killed my spies and thieves to try and prevent us being able to do the same back to them. These guys have a plan, and they're working like a well-oiled team. If we're going to beat them, we have to be able to work together efficiently, not just lash out as we're attacked in turn. This means that, rather than attacking right away and expecting immediate backup (which is unrealistic, since I usually don't log until a certain time, and I can't log on during the rush hours), wait for a response, bide your time, and strike back when you have worked out a plan of attack.

Heh, thx for the offer Bean but would they be able to track it? If they could I'd rather not have black mesa endangered by them.

Dude, I'll post a list of easy cash targets. Don't you EVER waste a turn just to buy one thief. Always maximize your turns, never waste them.

Giant Lasers tend to do that, Instead I could send B-2/F-22 Love their way

Er, it's a whole big Clan, Bean. If you're in Black Mesa, it's better that you not get involved.

At. All.

I'm serious.

I do appreciate the offer though, but it would be way too easy for someone to put together two and two, trace the SDNet Clan here, find the references to Black Mesa, and scream Alliance, resulting in us all getting tossed from the game.

Besides which, these guys have a total networth of nearly 5,000,000 and an average networth of ~$250,000

Interesting. They look quite weak to me though. I could never defeat them because of numbers, of course. Their highest networth is only $340,000. As a sidne-note, mine is now at ~$425,000.

Best thing about missiles is that it's a royal pain in the ass to get missile tracking up to any good value, so they won't know who hit them, more than likely.

Not sure we need help just yet, I'm just waiting for my morale to go back up so I can launch another wave of attacks...

OK, we're in over our heads a bit here... if anyone has a spare missile on hand, would they mind shooting it at somebody in FINLANDS TROOPERS (#24919)? Just make it look random...
