28 days ago, building my 4th Skysaber in the conquest?. in the mean time have built 2 Assassin boats. Put the new armor on turrets and ships, which doesnt protect them through deflection? if anything the new armor has made the fleet more vulnerable and easier to sink!, ( And the mountains are useless! now Attacking baser fleets can shoot over them and through them. Have been playing for 11 years, Im just wondering, are you trying to get players to leave? because The aforementioned comments doesnt support them wanting to stay!

    The only baser weapons that should be able to bypass mountains are skysaber and exterminator missiles. Mountains are still immensely useful.

    Also you should definitely have been able to build more than 2 assassins in 28 days, unless you were building something else
    Playing this game is like trying to row a boat up a waterfall.

    Thats my Point. The only to hulls I am building currently in 28 days is the Assassin and The Sky saber. The sky Saber in the conquest has been building for that length of time. and Yes only 2 Assassins I have been able to build. at 13 days each ? And my base has been attacked by several players with mutator Fleets, with Skysaber and Mutators and somehow are able to fire through the mountains. Several players in my Crew complain of this very thing. Even in the current Raid The repair time on the 2 Assassins are 3 Hours?  The Swallowtail fleet is 5 hours

    Let's start breaking this down a bit, shall we? You're saying that a Skysaber build is 28 days for you currently. I don't get that, do you not build the hull 1st, then refit it with all the components? That alone would shave off huge amounts of build time, especially if all your labs are fully upgraded, & you have completed your R&D.

    I really do not understand your Saber build at 28 days, I threw "something" together on the fly, & it's 15 days (with fully upgraded labs & an officer)

    If your labs aren't fully upgraded, I would suggest you find a friend to help you run Base Force TLC now.



    Mountains work just fine if you understand their limitations, I have 4, & are placed where they're doing a fine job depending on what's coming down my channel. 

    Fully built Assassins, yes, around 14 days to build, but that would be less if you built the hull then refitted it to suit. 

    Edited out last bit

    Thanks for The reply and good advice. Yes I have played for most of the 11 years. No, I dont build the hulls first, but thanks for the tip. I will begin doing that. No I am not as Smart as You. ( after Suffering 2 Major strokes and struggling with processing troubles and short term memory loss ) I have a handi cap. Apologies for not knowing these things. I do however Enjoy the game as it helps me with my processing issue`s. Thanks again for Your kind response and helpful advice!

    I can understand if medical issues are messing things up a bit (bit of an owch with the strokes..!) but glad some of my advice has helped--or will do.

    Deffo get some help with Base Force TLC "now" or even toward end of raid (if not done already) when folks are really bored, as that TLC offers all the lab upgrades you need to reduce your build times. 

    That TLC saves a ton of upgrade time, tbh.

    Lastly, your alliance shold be helping you a bit with advice like mine.

    Yes my Crew has been very helpful with Base and fleet builds. I most definitely appreciate Your help and advice and will ask to see if I can get some help with the TLC. I used to be able to park the Overlord behind the mountains to avoid destruction. I cannot now, as every fleet that has attacked me has either fired over the mountains or it appears that they have fired through the mountains. Being given a New Asus Gaming Computer for Chirstmas, I cant see how attackers could fire through.  As my memory isnt the greatest and struggle with working ship builds out so that they are effective. I find myself trying to push through the mental roadblocks from the strokes so to effectively contribute help as well. my Crew 1SS are really good with helping me along. Thanks again for Your Kindness and Generous advice.
