question about fleets

[nisomer]

can u have more than one fleet and like keep one fleet at a planet while u use another one to attack a different planet? is there a limit to how many ships u have in a fleet?

 

i also noticed that units like ties are moved in squadrons, will someone explain how that kinda works?

 

thx!

You can have multiple fleets at a single planet. you just can only have so much in each fleet.

 

As far as fighter squadrons and such. Much in this game to be more realistic comes in groups. Like Tie Fighters and Xwings etc will come in a squadron instead of 1 fighter at a time. This enables better control of the battle and it also is practical.

 

Some Ships come in groups as well anmd the same applies to the ground

Indeed. If you, for example have 8 Stardestroyers and the Alliance have placed a single Blockade runner at one of your planets to try and blockade it, you can select a single SD and send it to that planet (if its on the same Hyperspace route).

 

I am not 100% yet how the fighters will work because, as you will know, Rebel fighters can hyperspace (meaning that they arrive fully deployed and ready for battle) where as the TIE fighters have to leave either a space station or SD to join the battle. It made for big tactical decisions in Rebellion/Supremacy so it will be interesting to see

Just a random question, I've heard the term Rebellion/Supremacy thrown around a lot. Is Supremacy its UK name? or an expansion pack or what? I'd never heard of it until recently on this forum.

Supremacy was the UK Name for the 1996 release Star Wars Rebellion.

I as well have the same view as DMUK on this matter. As well I am sure that the multiple fleets per planet will easily be able to happen...As long as you can distinguish one from another.
