Counter to WPs

Some sugestions
1 try to drop troops/fighters under fire and so out flank the guns firing at you.
2 research warheads and drones and bombard them with drones.
3 research long range seekers and hope to stand off beyond the platforms weapons range.
4 after the next patch use weapons which destroy specific systems particularly weapons

But whatever you try it’s not going to be a walk over

Depends on your intent (conquest or eradication) for the enemy colony and how those weapon platforms have been built. If you don't care about taking over the planet, then the standard tactic is to overwhelm it with hundreds of seekers from a properly sized fleet. If you intend to take over the planet, 10+ troop transports and a heavily armoured decoy.

"What tech do I need" is really the wrong question. "Can I afford to bring 100 ships to this attack" is more relevant. Tech isn't the be all and end all - especially if tactical combat is in use.

Playing Touhou games (Go here if interested . No, nobody else is that good/insane as that replay). No rush for SE V bug fixing.

Heh, this is that KOTH game we're duking it out in, right?
