Ow, sorry but i still dont get it. I understand that my 450blocade runners have 900 life, enemy also has 900 life points, and i have also 300 musquitos=900 livepoints.So tell me why my 1800 lifepoints coudnt kill enemy 900? I was reading some forum items and it appears that mosquitos are kind of living shield, they just get first pain, and die, while my blocade runners are still alive after first shot, and they take 450life points off on enemy. so enemy has 450 fighters left, next turn they can take 225 blocade runners down my 225 blocade runers kill 225 fighters, and so go on. finally ill loose more mp, but i ll have ships left and enemy dont. Or is my picture of this battle not right?
Do ships fire at the same time or is the battle turnbased?

i should help, but come on guys read the manual, you are a bad player if you dont do it before play the game.
1 i didnt get the question of fever. You just win...
2 mosquitoes are not a siimple shield, you have to take his 3 lp off is not only hit it... a battle is turn based
enemy turn my turn
enemy turn my turn.
always! and the ships attacked is randomly

Ok, do you really think that i'll play the game before ill read manual? Well i read manual always, but dont even start to tell me that manual gives you answer how this game pickes out ships that are attacked first or next.
Who fires first shoot? Attacker? In that case attacker will always win, or he is just very very stupid. Or very very unlucky. Becouse if only one side fire they kill ships on other side and that score they will keep until appears that enemy has stronger, or way more ships than attacker. so i think that both sides fire at the same time, or this game is just unfair. Look, if i have 1000 fighters and enemy has 1000 fighters...ill see enemy approching, so there are no surprise attack, so if we fight it will be equal battle 1000/1000 and nobody wins, but if i have 1000 fighters and 500 musquitos, then...as you say this battle is randomly and you cant say with ship wil be hit first, but if so then enemy will anyway hit some musquitos in place of fighters and i ll win on points anyway. Right? If right then i have the point now if not ill possible try little longer to understand it.

The ships fight randomly, so when you have a battle it's always random who get's the first shot. also the order in which the ships fight is random (if you have different ships) but it is always one ship of you fires, one ship of the ennemy fires etc.

So 1000 against 1000 will always end up as a draw, so will 500 mosquito's block 1000 fighters etc.

But if you have more specific questions about the battle code, just ask away.

Steven1982, thanks, you are first who explained it to me in words that are understandable for an noob. Now i have better picture of possibilitys in battle. That random factor is little disturbing, in real fleet i would be able to say that that kind of ships have to attack first and that as second and so go on, now, there are always an chance that you will loose more ships that you should loose when you are really in charge on battlefield. For example my mosquitos are not always blokking for sure, so if i have 100 mosquitos in my fleet that is not always sure that they will block 300 fighters.
