Are loads of carriers w/ bombers and heavy cruiser escorts the counter to this? Or is cobalt spam better? All my caps and repair cruisers got killed in seconds with focused fire

So i heard there was a way to check how many refineries you could build before they would stop increasing the extraction rate. Where is this? Also, about how large should my force be or at what stage in the game should i be building my second cap?
Works wonders against the ai but is it every actually useful in an mp game? Or just a waste of resources?
Yes they're only a problem early to mid game on small to medium maps. The problem with that is that every game is on small or medium map, and there is no late game when he starts massing illums.
Thanks for all the help, i was TEC btw thats all i've played so far. And i did beat three hard AI so i do understand the basics. I guess thats what i've been doing wrong, i always build up a big fleet which takes a while before i attack. And i attack the cap ship first. I'll try out the spamming. tyty
So my first mp match, had a tec ally and was up against 2 advents. Started out ok but eventually he brought in a mothership with 20 or so illuminators and i got killed very quickly. The mothership used the restore shield ability and wouldn't die. What should i do?
