blazed when you put an attack on agressive, and its on enslave you will always win, and loose alot of pr. But you will win, i call that suicide.

my advise as I give it to everyone that asks:

Battle and loose alot, learn from your mistakes and from your enemies stacks and learn why and how you lost.

Put that hard learnt knowledge into good use and start stacking better.

it`s how I learned and how most of the other players learned. At first it is a bit disheartening to constantly loose but if you put that loss into something to better your ship knowledge or something like that.

It takes time, it is not instant, and everyone has different stacking styles and preferances

I agree with Bladactania --

but you have to be careful with turn-usage outside rt.

a 3-stack Spam has many uses but will probably make you lose out in the long run

The number on tip to winning on GC is to have the full 10 stacks at all times except for extremely low PRs.

I can, number one congrats you found something uniqe, gc is much better.

Now your terran i presume, there are multiple ways you can achieve victory. I prefere
the suicide enslave way, but there is something better. Attack on agressive requires a stacks of destroyers and cruisers. Stack those only with f.sword queen, and you should attack agressive or normal, i prefere normal i just win more that way.
A careful attack can be with spams, or a stack. Prefer stacking,
tyr
nirvana
c.taurus
c.cancer
f.axe
hercules
Attack carefull i dont know about those axe though.
Normal i would stack this
t.gurda
p.thor
t.kalium- i prefer to lead with this
p.odin
p.zeus
queen
f.sword
tyr
nirvanna- it has multiple wepons use it to your advantage bottom does great too
hercules

attack normal.

twiztedjuggalo?..

try referring to some of the info in my strategy guide in the strategy forum. http://gc.gamestotal.com/hef.cfm?f=hef_detail&hi=6223&ch=101

basically, neutrals in combination with race ships are usually key. fleet attitude can determine things depending on the ships you use. example being careful with high hull ships and aggressive with longer range attack ships. normal is good with a combination of hull ships and attacking ships.

alot of battle skill comes from experience though, try experimenting to see what works. refering to the ship list will also help :P
