(Prizes)
Since I started the game all my prizes attacks look like this https://snag.gy/96D7rc.jpg
"Prizes" are baits and are rigged. Starting to play I had 0 info about them, had to dig the forum and google to know wtf even are they. As I understood devs changed the algorithm constantly without notifying and we should TAKE THEIR WORD for it being fair. well my couple of days in this game clearly say IT ISNT.
Edit: just to clarify - as a beginner you get some cool units but you dont know whats up, I ended up killing them all DreadFleets Armada Bretheren etc cuz I had no idea, I saw missions and intuitively tried to complete them, that's just misleading. If you make such a weird complicated system you need to notify, I wouldn't attack prizes until I could produce alot of "cheap" units to exchange the prizes for if I knew.
