Well, I just lost my first online game of Entrenchment. It was a 2v2. My ally had run from the guy he was losing to, but had killed some of the guy I was fighting planet's and a bit of his fleet. I had a Lvl8 egg and a fleet without many HCs facing a guy with HCs, disciples and a few carriers.
Now my ally was at this guys planet fighting, so I jump into the only other planet he has left. I avoided the homing mines and immediately started to deploy a SB as 1) It would help against the HCs, or at least distract him from my fleet and 2) It would help if against the second opponent.
So I run my egg AROUND the mine field and deploy suck. I get the resources, but the planet doesn't go down. Meanwhile my strarbase that is 1/2 built is blown up. So I try the egg suck again when it is ready and this time it start taking off health, until it was countered. End result was the planet did not go down, I lost my lvl 9 egg by that stage and therefore the game as my ally had just quit.
So here is my beef
ME BUILDING A STARBASE IN A HOSTILE SYSTEM SHOULD NOT STOP MY EGG FROM TAKING HEALTH OFF OF A PLANET...
My ally and I should have been able to get him down to his last planet, before facing the other player.
