I mean come on, how is possible that a fleet could do me that much damage with THAT fleetpower. These things are unpredictable i already lost my ship twice like this, its crazy.

[Silverthorne]

It is entirely possible because your MAIN ship took hits from 3 of the fleets and each time it lessens yours shields and HP, that is why when hit by the 3rd fleet your ship died.

Also the amount of ships in the fleet multiplied by the attack. -The Dark Doom MK 1 38.598 89.300+ 893+ 4.510

I dont know if it makes sense to you, its hard for me to explain, I just know.

Maybe someone else can explain it better 

[lostedchylde]

it does seem unfair on the face of it - but this happens. this is one reason why i use at least four fleets to do missions. if you can only afford the two ships, send in a few fleets of with one decoy ship in each fleet. they will absorb the extra fleets attacks so your main isn't subjected to repeated assaults, they won't do damage and they just die but they'll save your ship and only cost a few credits apiece.

ya i use decoys from time to time when i risk a really big mission

[Faito]

Ok, i think that if u all agree that the attack was fair and square i wont argue, it just seemed crazy that i lot my ship against a fleet of the same FP when my ship is mainly HP.
So i'll take your advices, i'll use decoys the same FP that my main ship.

Thank u all.

[Cameron07]

well i dont know if i would call it fair.. but ive lost loads of ships like that.. its just a part of the game.. sometimes you hit a "killer fleet" that will do that.. just a temporary setback.. ive lost billions of creds in ships this round alone

[davey boy]

lol billions ive lost trillion cred ships this rd cos of it but its part of the game

[Cameron07]

haha but your seriously kicking my ... in power, like.. really kicking my ...

[Steel man]

well no it's not unfair, it makes perfect sense! why just the other day I saw an immensely fat dude get taken down by 4 little skinny guys.
