[MoE] Aircraft battle tutorial

Day 3,315, 12:34 Published in Canada Canada by Utat


Aircraft battles or Aerial battles are part of the regular campaign, mixed with regular tank battles at a ratio of 1 to 3 (after each 3 tank battles the fourth one will be an aircraft battle). They were introduced on day 3165.



General information



- Aircraft battles are not divided between divisions, and all the fighters’ influence will count against one wall.
- An aircraft battle will give 22 campaign points to the winning side (winning all divisions of a tank battle awards 11 campaign points). A total of 94 campaign points is still required for winning a campaign.
- Mutual protection pacts are active in aircraft battles.
- Players can fight in aircraft and tank battles.
- In the initial release aircraft battles will not be subject to the epic state mechanic.



Fighting as a pilot



- In-game strength doesn't impact pilot abilities. A new skill that can be evolved daily will be available in the future. Once available, the maximal daily progression of that skill will be far lower than what is currently possible for the strength attribute in order to avoid significant gaps between old and new players over short periods of time. Developing the coordination using dedicated facilities similar to the training grounds will be possible but again, the coordination bonus will be lower than to what the training grounds accustomed us.
- When fighting as a pilot all the players will gain experience points, even the ones that have purchased infantry kits.
- Current damage booster items cannot be used when fighting on an aircraft battle. The damage bonus received with the elite citizen status and the natural enemy bonus applies when fighting as a pilot.
- The damage accelerator can be used on aircraft battles.
The military rank bonus available in the war stash pack will count towards aircraft ranks progression.
- Only weapons produced in the aircraft weapons industry can be used as a pilot. Bazookas, rockets, cruise missile and bombs and other existing “super weapons” cannot be used in aircraft battles. The pilot can also fight without weapons as the damage formula used in the tank battles applies.



Medal

The citizens that deal the most damage in aircraft battles (for each of the involved sides) will earn the new Sky hero medal (similar to the current Battle hero medal), and receive 30 gold as reward. Sky hero medals will be available for each aircraft battle of the campaign.



Decorations

Special decorations are available for the citizens that manage to achieve first the new military in their worldwide and in their citizenship country. The first citizen to reach a new rank (in either worldwide or national rankings) will receive a golden decoration, while the next 9 citizens will receive silver decorations. Only the very first rank of its kind will count.



The Badger Advice



Winning at least 1 air round is ESSENTIAL to win a campaign. They are key to win campaign.I suggest to ours young "moose" to focus on these battle because you don’t need to buy weapons (they are very expensive and only give you 20% bonus). Just fight barefist there and gain some ranks. It's a win&win move.
