Attacking from nowhere... Is this normal ?
« on: November 18, 2010, 10:51:23 am »
Hi guys,

I prefer starting a new post rather than go it to mantis. I'm not sure about what I'll say, so, just checking here first.

During my last game, I noticed something that I could can as weird... I was attacking a system, and I had a group of ships around the gate, securing it. There were no ships at all in the surrounding of the gate, and I thought it was secure.

I jumped to the near system, and I saw there some enemy ships that had jumped from the gate into my area. It wasn't much, but what I do not understand is how they passed the blockade, since I was securing the gate.

How does it come that the AI still send ships to a world of mine even though I'm blockading the only access to my system ?

Or is it something to do with the Wormhole Guard Post (it wasn't killed at that time, but I'm not sure if I got some trials of invasion until the WGP was dead, or the command post itself died).

Is this normal behavior ? What did I missed ?

Thanks

Vampyre

If there is still a guard post there, then ships will get reinforced there periodically.  Sounds like it was working as intended!

Ok then, I thought I could blockade an invasion from a system with the wormhole, but it's truth the guard post was there. So everything is ok :-)
