    Getting lower level Casualties possible?

    My question is how do I get lower ranked casualties? I now lose demolitions, expert att drones, Hardened marines, bradley tanks and vipers. How do I go back to losing light gunners? Is it based on how many total units I have or my iph or my level or what? If I can reduce something to get lower ranked casualties, I'm all for it. Anyone know?

    You will always bring your most powerful Units to battle that is the default setting. You are probably not even bringing light gunners to battle anymore so the only thing you can do is lower your ally count so you bring fewer units to battle. This will make you weaker but you will loose less units because you are brining less units to battle (but still your strongest ones)

    Nothing you can do, but go all gold.

    You could lose any of your existing 2,000 units that play.

    Enjoy the NEW normal.

    Take my approach, I'm at 199 allies and only hit people with 80 or less allies. Usually single digit ally counts. I dont take casualties.

    And you can find them that are general rank or higher so that you still get boosts BPs.

    I would say, "spread the wealth too." For example, if you bring 500 very low units and 1 high unit to a battle, you will have a higher percentage chance of losing your very low units in a fight. I would find a infantry unit that you can bring to battle and stock up on them. You will lose them like crazy, but they are cheaper than med, low, very low. This is referred to as the meat shield strategy.

    I haven't been hit outside of a WD event in months. Come beat me up so I can see that inventory. I'm waiting PJ.

    Also, if you attack opponents whose def is 40% of your attack, you shouldn't have any casualties. Of course, there are always exceptions, but that is a general rule.

    Nope. I'm over 100k attack and even when I attack someone with 20k def I still lose 2-3 units per attack (usually brigands and attack drones).
    Could be because I have a lot more units than I should for the new game.

    Yeah, that's interesting. I saw that post in another forum, but it was beginning to flame out, so I didn't respond. Could be boosts, but not likely. Only if they lowered their ally count. Could be your last statement. What flag do you carry?
