Attack dogs are an amazing support flak unit, don't get me wrong:

I love to help out my alliance mates by flakking their attacks or defence and I really dont mind losing them, better they die than more expensive troops right?

But what I dont like is that when I flak someone's attack, they may get 400b bounty because of my help, but I'm stuck with a loss, as it's my troops on the line and I dont get any bounty myself, I dunno, but maybe the same could be said for units such as Shields?

perhaps have insurance scale with the proportion of the troop?

if a troop consists of 70% dogs and 30% of someone else's SA maybe give me a higher insurance rate?

Nothing big, just something that annoys me...

The simple answer is no.
Take a look at the cost of those things.

If you send 70mil dogs. and someone have 30mil SA.
dont you think the SA guy should be getting more than you ?

So, someone who spams on attack dogs is gained more insurance?
Someone who spams shields is gained more insurance?

Why you think they are classed as LET flak??
Just so your "stronger" LET get to kill more, and get killed less?
200,000,000 * 6,000 = 1,200,000,000,000 = Attack Dogs
25,000,000 * 40,000 = 1,000,000,000,000 = Terro Lead

40,000,000 * 55,000 = 2,200,000,000,000 = SA
so thats a ratio of
5,625 Thugs : 1 SA's
SA: Targets: LET / ALL
So then its only 70% of the 11.1% *<3 Cfalcon* firing at the TL's
That is theoretically

[So of all firing SA, only 13% of the fire damage is going to the TL's

That is also wrong :)
25 is 11.1% of 225. Don't overcomplicate it.

TaO said:

Again wrong :p the ALL component also fires, so it's the full 11.1%


But yes, the massive benefits of large amounts of cheap LET flak must come at a price. If they kept living and living, or kept getting high insurance, then you could keep hitting an alliance with impunity while taking almost no damage.

Not suggesting a change, as i have said, just griping about the annoyance of losing 400m dogs and having nothing to show for it, other than someone else getting a bounty hit, no idea why people are throwing their dummies out tbh...

It's fine as it is, I went attack dogs to do just this, just having a gripe to vent

??So why you griping about something which isnt a gripe??

You know what the use of dogs is, and yet you "complain" about them?

The answer to your problem to to stop wasting your dogs on other people's attacks and use them to flak your own TLs on lone attacks :)
