    So you're saying that fabricators should have their own anti-air capabilities?

    If not, then yes they should be able to destroy your fabricators.
    If you want your fabricators to be safe, then protect them.

    No, ofc not! im saying it shoulde take more then 1 bomber to destroy 6 or more fabbers. he gets reward, im not... i lose alot of HP, only 1 more pass and he will destory 5 more fabbers if i dont react!
    allways something good about of something bad!!!!!!!!!!!
    in the end he reacted by doing something stupid by moveing hes bomber into my base u know

    'xecpt what's the 'good' there, the bomber just becomes useless junk.

    we don't want useless junk cluttering our build roster.

    But that's impossible.
    One bomber, just like one dox, can destroy an infinite amount of unprotected fabricators.
    Once again, if you want your fabbers safe, then protect them. That's all that can be said.
    Also, as Zaphod already pointed out, NEVER clump unprotected fabricators in a way where a single bomb can destroy them.

    Yes you can.
    Everything with anti-air abilities heavily out-ranges bombers.
    Put an area patrol of fighters or some stingers nearby and bombers won't be able to touch the fabricators.

    that's another debate ....................On which we agree this time 'round ^^ : https://forums.uberent.com/threads/poll-paper-units.53458/

    that being said you should try out PTE to see if you prefer the balance and unit stats there : https://forums.uberent.com/threads/streams-pte-and-experimental-builds.58960/

    balance is perfect littel thing from what the game is made from and the time spent on it!
    knowing how the game is played only makes it more perfect

    Heh, I considered going for the starcraft analogy (it's much easier) but I thought someone with your grammar wouldn't have the keyboard ability required to play that game. TBH, at this point I suspect you're not a troll, you're just really really stupid. So I'll try to be nice and lay it out real slow for you:

    6 faaabbbeeeersss iiiiinnnnnn oooooonnnnnnneeeeee plllllllaaaaaccccceeeee issssss liiiiiikeeeee buuuuiiiiilllldiiiinnnggg nooooothhhhhhiiiiiinnnnngggg bbbbbbuuuttttt pppprrrrrooooobbbbbbeeeesss thhhhhhheeeeennnn wwwaaalllkkkkiiiiinnng thhhhhhhhheeeeemmmm aaaalllllllllllllll oooovvvveeeeeeerrrrr aaaaa wwwwwiiiiiiiddddooooowwwwww mmmmmmiiiiiinnnneeeee.

    For everyone who isn't a moron: "6 fabbers in one place is like building nothing but probes then walking them all over a widow mine. Problem is between chair and keyboard, not with game balance.

    ... dude

    If you play greedy with your factories and produce only fabbers, you deserve to be punished if the other player can catch you at it. Just in the same way you can punish greedy over expansions in SC2, or really any other RTS game. If you clump up 6 fabbers and skip on the AA, you've taken that risk and deserve to lose them. Your opponent has traded out alot of his potential eco and timings just going for bombers in the first place.

    Bombers are one of the only ways to keep an opponent honest in terms of fabber spamming and reactionary turret spamming. It only forces you to build stingers inbetween and maybe radar.

    No offence, but you seriously cannot be GM in sc2 and not see the counter-relationships here.
