Transports or Amphibius

Post by MrDave »

I'd like to know if an Amphibious landing force is more effective than using transports when trying to land forces on an occupied location.
My transports have landed a small portion on my force and then decided to leave even "remain on station" enabled.

Dave you never use "transports" to land on occupied territory, that's asking to get whacked! Only use Amphibious TFs.

They will but won't land heavy stuff, but if it's a dot base they won't work.

Deciding to leave even with a remain on station setting is most likely attributable to your threat tolerance settings.

If you didn't set them to ignore any and all threats then your remain on station order was a weak one.
