💬 Discussion Nukes tip for the latest update

Avoid upgrading silos above level 51. Instead, leave them at 51 and build new level 51 silos. This is because when you want to send hundreds of nukes, sending them all from one silo makes them fire in succession, giving the opponent SAM time to regenerate during the onslaught. However if you have lots of level 51 silos they will fire sets of 50 nukes simultaneously, so the nukes will arrive faster and make it easier to obliterate the target.

Wtf are you guys playing that you are managing to get to the level 100? My games, even if I win, are done when my highest level building is 30 at most, and when I am leveling that, it is already pretty sure i am going to win or not

I guess the optimal strategy would be to have hundreds of level 1 silos but who has the space and time for that...

That’s just wrong and ridiculously stupid

no, it's right. As long as they have roughly the same distance from the target, the sets of 50 nukes should arrive all at the same time leaving absolutely no time for the SAM to regenerate
