Sorry, I didnīt explained myself well. The fleet is small: there are 5 bombers,1 Xport and 28 or so destroyers, and I donīt want to split them. Itīs my opponent who has cruisers in the zone, though in too small quantity (stacks of 4 at most) to be a threat to the fleet; he has no gates near and I can outproduce him (with my own cruisers if I need) using only the nearby planets, and reinforce the fleet with more ships I know for sure heīd be able to send. In this situation, sacrificing ships is pointless, I donīt want to gain 1 round of bombing and kill 90000 colonists to lose the bombers after that to a small stack of cruisers because I weakened the stack of destroyers.
You must be thinking why donīt I just go and smash his empire out of existence; itīs because I play a 5% (10%) 3-immune HE and only very recently my resocurce curve is shooting upwards (itīs first half of the 50s in a non-ACC BBS game). If iīm not dead is only because we are all beginners, he doesnīt know how to get the most from the minelayers and wasnīt aggresive enough in the early years.
