My opponent is preventing me with submarine from getting into the water. What to do?
Do you really need to get into the water? Building on water costs waterplatforms. Maybe you can fly with transporterplanes from one base to another and make an airbridge, exchanging minerals with gold/fuel/mineraltransporters?
No, I have to get into the water. Alright. But it will take a while.
You can place one pioneer a time, guarded by bombers, in the water-dangerzone to surround an area with waterplatforms, so that a submarines can not kill the constructor later, building a shipyard. If your foe likes to exchange submarine for pioneers, having only 2 Ress inside, of course, will be good for you. Additionally his support ways are normally longer than yours and you have likely more small plants than he does have shipyards.
Before placing the contructor into water, you have to make sure, no submarine sneaked inside your secured area. When you do not want to fill the whole area with waterplatforms, you either use surveyors or scouts to filter trough. Do it in such a way, that no active player can mingle through your lines!
