Why can't you target a fleet that is docked? I can see it and click on it and get Details.. But when I try and attack it with Naval Bombers it says the bombers target is the City it is docked at and does no damage to the ships when it attacks. I let one attack go in just to chech
Docked Ships?

This happens sometimes when the ships are docked too close to the city point, your best bet is to patrol over the ships, this is also straight up better, patroling does more damage over time and never requires the planes to refuel."I have not failed, i have just found 10,000 ways that wont work." - Thomas Edison

Try clicking the edges of the boat model instead of the boat location. You may be unintentionally targeting the city when you issue these orders.Say hi on the discord <3.

Clicking unit icons is a great way to get specific you units you want to hit, if that doesn’t work on PC refer to above stuff.

When patrolling, your planes deal 50% of ordinary attack damage and absorb 50% of the damage from units in patrol area( planes that overlap your patrol count too). There shouldn’t be any difference.

I think so.

Patrolling is better, no refuel and no return or arrive time, its almost 70% more efficient."I have not failed, i have just found 10,000 ways that wont work." - Thomas Edison

Yes, you should only use attacks when you want to say, quickly knock out an airstrip or enemy stack.

Direct attack is very risky. Your planes are easy prey on the way back to base, and while they refuel. You have no control over them during this time. Avoid direct attack and patrol 99% of the time.
The trick with patrol is to pay attention to what is inside the blue patrol area. Look before the 15 minute patrol timer ticks. Make sure you are targeting what you intend. If not, adjust the patrol so the circle avoids things like stacks with high AA values or enemy aircraft. Unless you are patrolling with fighters, in which case only target enemy planes and nothing else.
This goes for direct attack also. I see people making bad targeting decisions all the time. Open the army tab and look at your target's AA defense. If you are not dealing 4-5 times the damage to him that he's doing to you, then find another target. Planes are expensive and fragile. Use them on soft targets. -
I’d say 3-5, as the vast majority of stacks with similar amounts of units (worth targeting) fall into that range. If you’re going for a big airforce you have to go after big targets as well, within a reasonable amount of risk.

Sure, in some cases you have to take more damage to take out an important target.
The point is, planes are fragile and expensive.. You have to know what you're targeting. And you have to do the math. -
Make good use of DxC’s calculator for this stuff!

Death stacks of 5 quintillion planes are probably the exception, though lol.

Don’t get me wrong, there are times direct attack is better, but patrol should always be the first option to consider.The post was edited 1 time, last by 6thDragon ().
