I'm pretty new to Polytopia, started playing right before the recent update. Hypothetically, if there was just a river separating myself and an opponent and I completely fill the river with Bombers, is it possible for the opponent to break through? I think the usual counter to Bombers are Rammers and other Bombers, but there would be no tiles connecting their water tiles with my river.

Would 1-2 Knights be able to move into range and kill a Bomber? If so, I'd need a bunch of Defenders in front of the Bombers right? If 1 Knight can 1 shot a Bomber, can 1 Knight just destroy the entire fleet in 1 turn?

Playing my first MP game, still trying to figure out the combat mechanics.

Technically, Scouts were built to kill Bombers, as they're cheap and can hit Bombers nicely.

Hard to tell in your specific situation, though
