For the most part I agree. I must modify your statement about
fortificatins though. Build them where you think your opponent
might strike. I was loosing my game until he attacked me in xVienna,
my capital, where I had been busily building up to legendary forts.
He attacked with a dozen or so MEC against a dozen or so Static on DD.
Ugly. The MECs died soon after their highly trained ranks depleted
themselves. The moral? Sometimes, if you guess right, forts do help.
But if you dont guess right their a waste.
