Learning from Mistakes: How I Have Annalyzed the Battle
How the records of my most recent battle are very confusing.

Sins Forums
Ok, as some of you know I am a very frequent TEC player. I sometimes play as Advent or Vasari, but for the most part I play TEC.
Yesterday I had my biggest battle yet over Halleria in one of the medium or small maps. My ally, a Vasari player, had come under attack and I came to assist him.

The Battle
As you can see, everything was even but one thing: The Advent had the most Capital Ships.
I had lost 1 Dunov Battlecruiser, 1 Cielo Command Cruiser, 2 Kodiak Heavy Cruisers, 3 Hoshika Robotics Cruisers, 3 Percheron Light Carriers, 7 Garda Flak Frigates, 5 Acrova Scout Frigates, 8 Cobalt Light Frigates, 3 Krosov Siege Frigates, and 3 Javelis LRM Frigates.
As you can see from my casualties, I lost almost 40% of my forces. The Vasari, however, suffered much worse.
They lost a Skiranta Carrier, 1 Vulkoras Desolator, 3 Skarovas Enforcers, 3 Serevun Overseers, 4 Stilakus Subverters, 2 Lasorak Transporters, 6 Junsurak Sentinels, 7 Jikara Navigators, 4 Ravastra Skirmishers, 3 Kanrak Assailants, and 3 Karrastra Destructors. And from that, I calculate they lost roughly just over 50% of their starships. The Advent suffered just about 24% of their fleet if I did it correctly. Not a lot. If you want, I will later post their casualties.
The Outcome
Although we did suffer almost 75% more casualties than the Advent together, we did manage to force them out through additional reinforcements. For what remained of two great fleets, only about 80 remained in all.
As you can see, you must be thinking me of an extremely good player as a TEC, because most of you have been critisizing the TEC on how they are so hard to command. For me it's easy, but to you you might think me a god or something.
I'm not.
I am a fair player as the TEC. I lost about 40% of my ships. In another post I saw someone lost some ships, and I calculated they lost only 30% of their forces, if not, maybe around 25% or less. And there were more ships in that battle. Meaning, he's better than me.
Now, someone might say the reason me and my Vasari ally won was because of our partnership and because I came to his aid. I don't look at it that way.
He's my view: we won because we had twice as many ships.
Well not exactly twice, but we did outnumber the Advent attacks but much.
The Annalysis/Conclusion
The way I see it, the battle was pretty much a 50:50 chance of luck. They had to attack that planet by chance, because there were multiple Missile Platforms there (which were destroyed nonetheless) and the Vasari just happened to have half of a rescue and recovery team because they needed to rescue and recover (obviously) a small amount of ships on an Advent planet. So it really wasn't a 50:50, it was more a 70:30. Because if the R & R fleet wasn't there, we would've been screwed to hell. If I wasn't there, they would've been screwed to hell.
Either way, if we didn't have the amount of ships we did, Halleria would've been lost.
And my biggest fleet ever created, destroyed.
But thankfully it wasn't. Out of my six capital ships I only lost 1. 1 of 6 is not that great.
The Vasari lost 2 of 8 capital ships, which can be brought down to 1/4, or 1 of 4. Meaning, they lost more capital ships than me.
Now, I'm open to positive and negative comments here. Critisize, discuss, whatever.
