      This means cruisers have no counter except other navy discuss.

        Other counters exist:

        • Cruisers can be killed by torpedo planes, especially when they're in low numbers
        • Cruisers can be killed with hover, even in big numbers

        Also, it takes a long time to set up the strategy, which means the defender can counter it just by not losing navy. That's mostly about scouting your opponent and making t1 units, which are fundamental aspects of gameplay. If someone is weak on the fundamentals so they blunder into easily-avoided harm, that is not a reason to change the game balance.

        Also, the defender can reduce the harm by building TMD, which isn't very expensive compared to the cost of cruisers.

          250 mass in tmd stops 2000 mass in cruiser discuss

          try actually proving a balance problem exists instead of doing a 2 minute effort post

              Locking as I can’t see this discussion going anywhere constructive and the op is a long way from the guidelines for balance threads
