Yes. yes, this actually is possible. The truck wreck goes to a sliver of health when attacked by small arms fire, but is not destroyable until the Captain arrives. Needless to say he had a flaktrack and 2 MG34s waiting on the other side, and the game was over by then.

Fuck this shit, really.

EDIT- This is completely preventable- put an incomplete tank trap across the middle the screw up the truck pathing. I'd advise that everyone do that as a precaution, because it's a game-ender.

Haha.
Awesome!
Reminds me of a VCoH game on Semois with Nosliw, where the brit opponent sets his truck up on the wher fuel and contains with a pin at the bridge cutoff.
I like cheese, hence why I like SC2.
Better build that ghost trap you mentioned just to be safe ^^

That's why I always focus on the center of the map on that side, can easily take out the truck before it reaches it's destination, especially when going rifle doc for a fast rifle nade or assault engies. :D

this is one of many reasons why i go with 1 or 2 extra rear echelons at the start, it help you deal with kubel or sws much better

I did have two REs, first went north through the village and the second south-east. Northern RE didn't have vision of the truck, southern one was too slow to catch sturms building superwire.

That's why I always focus on the center of the map on that side, can easily take out the truck before it reaches it's destination, especially when going rifle doc for a fast rifle nade or assault engies. :D


The opponent was sneaky enough to take the northern path for the truck, instead of through the village. The first I knew of the truck was when it was already on the bridge itself :P

I'm surprised these horrid things haven't been more common with the terrible design choice of using trucks.

The thing that gets me the most is his "glhf" at the start, when he knew exactly what he was going to do. What a scumbag.

Yeah I'm aware that posting this will let abusers know how to do it, but primarily it's here to let all USF players know to ghost tank trap the bridge, or part of the bridge, which solves the problem because the truck can't reach the unvaultable section. Ofc the invincible wire on this chokepoint map is already pretty stupid, but at least it isn't game over 3 minutes in from the truck.

I don't think utilizing a facet of the game that gives you an edge makes you a bad person. Paul truck pushes me every game and he even says he will do it up front and apologizes, haha. Then of course I ghost TT him. It's not his fault, and it's not my fault. We are not bad people, it's just a flaw in the game.

I don't think they are terrible people ... this is the way the game has been developed and they are just using the tactics available to them. It's great outside the box thinking!
I'd be pissed too to have it used against me .. but I can appreciate it.

Knowingly abusing cheap tactics=terrible... It makes the game less fun for both parties. I guess if all you care about is your ELO and winning and just treat it like a win factory then thats ok. I for one like to have fun AND win. I will not ever utilize cheap tactics, then again i probably won't ever be #1, but thats ok with me.

But beating this tactics makes the victory all the sweeter, and i will flame you till you report me to relic, lol.
