Can anyone please clarify the relationship between Turrets and WS / SS? Questions:

1. Warsats have 1200 defense. My understanding is they are the same as Turrets and impacted by all Turret tech. Is that correct?

a. Turret Defense
b. Arbalest (Achievement) says increase Turret def 15% "on planets".
c. Advanced Tech Obelisk - increases turret def "on planets".
d. Efficiency - can use a planets turrets when attacking.
e. Armor / Shields - has no impact unless troops are present?

Is the above correct?

2. Space Stations have 600 defense. My understanding is ss do not actually use turrets so none of a-e apply. Is that correct?

3. How do people adjust for Warsats in the Battle Tool? For ss I had 600 turrets. The max the tool accepts is 999.

I appreciate any guidance as I try to understand this kick-ass game :)

You use your brain and figure it out. If we told you it would be too easy.

war sat gives 1.2 million defence.

When I said "1200" I meant the same as 1200 turrets = 1.2 mill, yes

Forgive me if it's a noob question but I am trying to figure it out. The math is not adding up for me so clearly something is wrong. It is likely on my end.

I attacked a space station today with 6 ms. My understanding, based on the battle tool, is as follows:

Space station = 600k defense
1 ms = 100k defense x 6 = 600k defense

I am looking at the battle report and there are no other defenses, so I would expect the defense on the report to show 1.2 mill but it shows 1,410,000. Mathematically, that is 35% extra on either the ships or the space station.

The defender has 100 Armor / Shields which is a 20% boost to his ms = 120k extra defense. That brings the total defense up to 1,320,000. Now I am trying to close the 90k gap.

The defender also had 100 Turret Defense = 20% boost. The math doesn't work whether I include or exclude it.

The only other techs on the defender's side are irrelevant. Defender had no stance.

Can you shed any light on this topic? Am I making a math error? Or is this a possible bug?

I highly doubt it's a bug. Did you look at his advance tech? regular turrets?

I understand why you would question the defender's techs. I checked and here they are:



Also, I am certain of the defender's status. Both before and now it shows as None.
