Re: best attacker race

hmm there is no "best attacker race" i have 3 customs and use it for the diffrent kinds of attacking jobs im doing. your being nieve if your gonna say that your using camaar cause your gonna have a big family. camaar is good for being a small, light attacker. so you grab fresh unportalled, retakes, and noob bankers who refuse to portal. then you hand off to stay light. custom is for a couple diffrent things between research and op's. camaar have weak op's so they cannot be as efficent as a heavy attacker for being so. take DU as an example, or simply planet infra. its all how you wanna play and every race can be used as an attacking race just depends on your strat.

Re: best attacker race

I'd say the best attack race is down to the players activity, but I'd say Rawrr is right that custom beats Camaar, then again I always play custom, really does depend what you want your attack race to do, core defense, war, quick retakes ect, also depends if your going pure HC or Rezzie / Attack, so guess there are a lot of options.

The best attack race for:

Quick Retakes > Camaar
War > Cutsom HC Attack
Rezzies > Custom Rezzie / Attack

So custom wins in my eyes 2v1

Camaar have the edge at the SOR because of speed, but then again there isnt that much fighting that early in round, so they lose the benefit of all the speed later in round, unless your been raped and need uber quick retakes, but it most cases it seems they turn to the big custom attackers to break planets they cant take ect, custom FTW.

hmm... guess I have to say why don't I?

ok...
first: research 80% difference between both 1 point for custom
second: opps/spells obviously less than a custom and those that are there are uselss.. except for no fear(camaar) 2 points for custom
camaar has speed... thats about it... 1 point for camaar

so an easy math would take us to 2 - 1 for custom

this happens in either mw or 1 player gal... custom will always kick camaars ass... always


What kinda score is that tongue you cannot compare speed with research. Camaar is needed, hc attacker (rc) is needed. tongue nevertheless quite fine race, tough i don't like the looks of the magic wink. I rather go for opping/research attacker

Re: best attacker race

Main attacker : go custom
Raider: go camaar

simple

Re: best attacker race

Indeed, they go together quite fine. Also use camaar for core cleaning. Like this camaar would win 2-1. As you can see giving scores is useless, you can manipulate like hell. But whatever you do, please do not, please... do research while being camaar. It just hurts to see that.

Re: best attacker race

What is the % of buildings a good attacker should have you think?

Iron-50%
Endur-20%
Food-10%
LivingQ-10%
Research-10%

Is this about right or am I way off?

Re: best attacker race

100% RC's

that's all you need, anything else is a core cleaner / retaker

Re: best attacker race

So all I ever need is RS and lots of them so I ether get my matts from the bankers or from the market?

Re: best attacker race

not RS

RCs (Research centers) and go 50/50 military/construction, until you get a fleet jump, then change to 100% military.

Of course you need support from bankers and resourcers since you aint producing anything (xcept planets taken from enemy), the reason a caamar going HC attacker needs an active family behind funding him constantly.

For a custom attacker you dont need to go 100% RCs cause its suposed you set 50%Research in race points, so it's often att/resourcer, or even pure resourcer with fleet only for core retakes

Re: best attacker race

Thanks for the info now I know what I have to work on next round.
