A cautionary tale

So I had a nice fleet built up on my home planet (for a newer player) 100 or so Heavy Cargo some fighters some cruisers, couple of BS and some destroyers.

one of the red rated players sends ONEbattleship and whipes out the fleet, ***** up the million rez and goes on his merry way.

FLEET SAVE!!!!

any fleet you want to keep, SAVE. Fleet saving is sending your fleets on a mission that will put them in space and out of reach for the space of time you expect to be away from the game. I knew better, but my arrogance was in thinking I was too small to bother with.

This Cautionary tale was brought to you by...

Nobody.

more than likely his espionage was low enough to not show the total amount of ships, just that it was Battleship attacking and he pesumed it to be 1. Just a guess tho
