Fleet Command Starting Strategy

For such a great game Facebook Fleet Command have a very poor how to guide or a beginners guide. The best you can find is a facebook group with very few posts. So before you go into battles and skirmishes below are few tips you might find interesting.
  • When you just started you have 550 Battle Points in your account , Enough to buy the two cheapest ships available ,Patrol Ship mk1 and Patrol Ship mk2, buy them immeditely.This will give you a big advantage in the early battles because many don't do this step first up.
  • Go to the training tab and start training your commander and the crew.You can traing your commander and crew 3 times for each visit. You can train them in different skills and its upto you to select them according to your preference.
The two tips above and really help you out in the early battles so be sure to do them.

Why Fleet Command is great ?

Facebook Fleet Command is a great game for many reasons , for a software engineer working for 8 hours a day the biggest appeal for me is the amount of time it consumes. You are allowed to play once only 12 hours which automatically limits you from spending hours playing the game and you are only allowed one battle and four skirmishes in a one turn , which will take about 15 minutes so whether you like it or not you can only spend around 30 mins during the day playing the game. I just love that and its the main reason for me love this game so much.
