There are three types of attacks in BTU. Raids, Recons, And Planetary Assaults
The first is called a recon. It can be launched on any planet in the galaxy. it consists of 6 mechs of personal choice by unit commanders on both sides. These 6 mechs battle. If the attacker wins, they get the information on the number of mechs on the planet, the income of the planet, if there is a factory on the planet. And other such information.
The second type of attack is called a raid. There are 4 types of raids, mech raids, income raids, propaganda raids, and kindapping raids. When a raid is launched 30 mechs of each side's choosing are pitted against each other. If the attacker wins in a mech raid, they get all mechs on the planet, if the defender wins, the attacker gets nothing. In an income raid, the attacker gets all income on the planet, if the defenders win, again the attacker gets nothing. In a propaganda raid, if the attacker wins, the defending units ability to launch attacks is greatly reduced, if the defenders win, the attackers do nothing. Finally, In a kindap raid, if the attackers win, they stop a person of the enemy's team from playing again in BTU until they are "Rescued"
The third and final type of battle is called a planetary assault, or a PA. This is a battle over the ownership of a planet. If the attackers win on this one, they gain ownership of the planet, if they don't...... well then they don't get the planet. |
