so you can attack more then one player at once or you can send two fleets at one target so if one of them is desroyed the other one can attack the target which is most likely to be weaked

If you have 3 fleets two for attacking and one for defending, both attacking forces have 2000 man each, the defending force will be less than 1000. Further each attacking fleet requires a mothership (1000 men)and left with 1000 menpower to fight. Don't you think you will spread your flrces too thin?

I think 3 fleets is to much but when ever i attack a planet, i use one fleet to kill the planets ship so my secound fleet can attack the planet.

Thanks blade for pointing my mistake.
I will be more careful next time.
I have not attack anyone yet. In the previous round before i completed researching everything - it ended. I suppose I had to attack while researching. When will this round end?

@Hobbie attacking with 2 fleets is almost a given. Not just for wiping out the entire fleet on the planet then going for buildings. (That is quite difficult.) You use 2 to try wipe out at least one class of ships, which makes your second fleet much more likely to score big points.

Got a better Idea, think of canadian football.
You make a hole to get the quarterback.
In ST you make a hole in the fleet.

ya good example, blaze is good at learning when u give him a canadian example
any way i use captains way too i deep scan the planet i wanna attack first than i make 2 fleets 1 with number of ships he has on his base (so i can whipe out all his ships) and a big one to attack his planet and score big time

so it is your chose to make your own starategy of the game (and start attacking)

What kind of fleet setup should you use for each fleet, or does it not make a difference?

yes it does (u gotta use a deep scan on the target so u know how many ships he has in the base) and than u gotta set the fleet that u wanna send to attack his ships some how that it can kill all his ships (if not possible at least all his ships in 1 0r 2 diffrent class)
