umm no...DoD and teburu aren't elite alliance match champions(they are great at public games though) (to my knowledge, pretty much no one is a alliance match champ on the forum other than opulon)There's something called a "cruiser"(it tends to do 2.5x damage than a frigate), also something called a "aip sub" which beats a destroyer if you try to use ships offensively in shallow watersDOA70 wrote:
The frigate / destroyer stack is the hardest to counter as it requires a lot of high level ASW heli's to deal with. Or at least enough helicopters to damage the frigates so that the naval patrol aircraft can do their thing. Either way, it's tough. The key is other nations have to keep an eye on the map and the newspaper to check and see if a nation has built up a big navy. Because you are right, once you've got that stranglehold, it is very tough to break. And so the answer is, don't let it happen.user8394273 wrote:
... This leads me to wonder, is there any way on WW3 to win after utterly losing total control of the waters? [note naval recon spam (if it manages to overcome the frig spam) can be in theory entirely eliminated by aircraft carriers and superiority aircraft, if I'm going to go full naval doctrine]
Knowing you, you have not unlocked the aip sub and may never will...(it's no longer available)
Also FYI without aip sub cruiser is virtually unbeatable... other than naval recon(which doesn't work well, cruiser has anti air and has 5x the HP)
Theres also something called shore based artillery which kinda screws you if he built a combat outpost in the mountains..Also mobile launched bms
While all this sounds expensive, considering your small economy versus theirs it's entirely possible
Btw: how many of those silly noobs were under rank 20?
and the thing making the cruiser great for navy isnt primarily the dmg output; but the speed and range advantage it gets over other units
edited to add: And by "ya'll", I mean Teburu and ewac.
