I want to share a strategy that I use in end-game scenarios where most player have gone AI and the robots are declaring war on you. THey have built up lots of unit and are sending big stacks toward your territory.
This strategy will only work if the countries have coastlines, if not, it won't work.
So basically you're just bombarding those stacks to death with battleships.
Here's how I do it:
Hope this helps!
This strategy will only work if the countries have coastlines, if not, it won't work.
So basically you're just bombarding those stacks to death with battleships.
Here's how I do it:
- Research battleships level 3 or higher
- Churn out 10-stacks of battleships (you don't really have to worry about subs because AI rarely produces naval units)
- Send them to dock along the robot home cities or cities where they have large armies (that you don't want to have to fight melee with)
- Any stacks that enter range of battleship will be automatically fired upon (even if you don't have premium)
- Send most or all units in the stack to the place your battleship stack is located. This is GREAT! (they have to take 2.5 hours to embark, plus transports are horrible against battleships no matter how many units are in there)
- Send most or all units in the stack to another province - in this case you can choose to follow them if you are online and they are staying near the coast.
- Stay in the city. The only bad thing about this is, buildings in the city will take major damage, as well as morale.
- If you have stack of 10 lvl 3 battleships, they should be giving at least 50-60 damage per iteration
- If you have stack of 10 lvl 6 battleships you can do about 150 damage per iteration, depends on doctrine
- Axis doctrine works best for this strategy since those battleships have highest ground unit damage stats
- 10 lvl 3 - 20 iterations (10 hours)
- 5 lvl 6 - 14 iterations (7 hours)
- 10 lvl 6 - 6 or 7 iterations (about 3 hours)
Hope this helps!
