strat : how to defend against arty stream
-
Hello all !
Playing as a cybran i have difficulties to defend against streams of units, especially arties.
It is doable, costs opponent constant mass draw but takes lot of care to defend against.
Any advices ?A nice day to all fafers : )

It depends about what game stage we're talking;
If your opponent spams mobile T1 arty early on, then you can just move your tanks in a zig-zag-pattern, dodging all the shots.
If your opponent spams them later on, I'd recommend placing down 1-2 T2 PDs behind your army so they can additionally deal damage. Then instead of spamming a lot of small units against them, I'd stick to just a couple of Loyas so they can dodge most of the shots again.
If you're talking about T4 state, there is not a lot you can do honestly. Use single units as a decoy, zig-zag with important units and don't just send monkeylords into 300 arties; Maybe use some engis to throw down a T2 PD here and there, but don't overinvest. Overall in the late stage, just be careful and avoid sending units into a t1 arty army.
If you want advice for a specific situation, feel free to send a replay in #replay-review on the FAF discord and I'll take a look later on
