Fake defence as a mission type?

[KingAlan]

I've heard fake defence bandied about as a coded mission type. I don't like this idea.

Fake defence, as it is now, requires you to be online to recall (or send ships that the attacker can't damage) I think that this setup for fake defence causes enough stagnation in the game as is.

[Wishmaster]

agree

[suave]

then remove fake attack as well

why favour the attacker (no need to be online) for fakes over the defender?

so either yes for both or for none

[robban1]

fake attack have a tactical gain at times but hardcoded fake def is something you can send without careing a bit

so fake def is gay and should not be an option in pa unless you actually have to manually recall the fleet or land

that's true. come to think of it, I don't especially care for the fake atatck mission type either...

If it takes to remove the 'fake defence' mission type to take out the 'fake attack' one, I wouldn't mind.

AGREE

but keep the fake attack
