just be winning already before it comes on the field .
i found out that when enemies get JT when things are neck to neck and if you do not have enough to engage it immediately as in INF to decrew hidden raks and two fireflies more tanks (doesnt have to be AT) and support weapons to cover the flank while your tank forces and assault INFs charge ahead... try to get the right ingredients asap - and if you have the right units already, go for it asap as long as the positioning is god damn awful for you.
what I am saying is that you are dealing with a time bomb - longer JT is on the field, less and less chance you are getting back exponentially...
Just noticed people posted back on this.
So basically you are saying just yolo it right away. IIRC by the time he got that JT in that match they already had spammed a bunch of jp4s. That was one of the times I wish I just had disposable ass t34s to bum rush it with a big health pool since even my comet was gonna get penned all the time anyway.
I think the only time I ever killed a JT was today when the guy called it in and straight off the bat literally drove through a hedgerow right into the middle of my army on red ball. I had two fireflies and hit it with rockets from one (not enough muni for two because of commando demos
) and piats from a RE squad, but it still killed both my fireflies because one got stuck and the other got shot by a p4 nearby while flanking and 2 or 3 shots bounced even at point blank, and it luckily got sniped by a teammates su85 somehow right before it escaped. It made me mad that he messed up so bad and still killed both my fireflies and almost got away with it though.
