This is so weird...
First i made 4 ships. Realised i dont have money for the fifth one. Removed all the ships... and got only about 70% of credits back.
So restarted the game. Fine, be that way. Made 5 cruisers against 2 heavy cruisers... 1 ship survived. 400 credits? I'm down 1000 credits from this battle
Restart. I guess i'm just unlucky?
Lets go 1 cruiser 3 heavy cruisers. Full spend. No way can i lose. And the enemy just keeps focus firing my ships one by one.
Lost. Lost. Lost...
1 won... ok. Misclicked "new game" out of habbit.
Ok. 4 v 4, my heavy cruiser has 280 hp. their heavy cruiser has a shield and 784hp.
Game is just unfair.
Also "slower attack" is a tad confusing. Attacks later. It still attacks the same amout as the smaller weapon. More than that. Enemy often attacks first anyway, destroying my ships before they can fire a shot.
Only viable strategy is to save for the biggest ship, because you will lose 30% of the battles to pure randomness anyway, might as well try to go the the next battle with a good ship. Because the starter money is all you get, the rewards won't even get you cannon fodder. Smaller ships are less optimal.
Could use a speed setting on the battle to solve it quicker.
Pretty upset with the game. Its not terrible but the balance is pretty infuriating.
