Reinforcement Timers.
Yes, the two things that should be in balance here are...
Defender's side assets: buildings, storage content, defending robots lost, after ALL the reinforcement phases are gone.
Attacker's side assets: attacking robots lost, during ALL the reinforcement phases.
(And this with the premise that the attacker can pull all the reinforcements in a row.)
Or in other words, you're taking one-sided losses yourself with the hope that you can destroy the base in the end, which could make up for your losses that you have suffered up to that point. But it's important to note here that your gain doesn't have to be of material or monetary nature, it can be political, e-peen, entertainment, etc.
