Not everyone could pull this off. I suspect there is a counter to it. If he knew you'd do it, I suspect early luchs to kill the snipers. His came to late. WP though 4 sure. |
Yea, there was more chat but it didn't show it.
He said "that was gay".
I just responded and said it was my only chance and it was a risk.
He said, the "way for gays" meaning to win. I'm sure he wasn't happy about it.... When it was done to me, the guy didn't think it would actually kill me except unlike this guy, mine was a 1 shotted ability because he had far more ammo than I did. I needed 2 times to see his base and I knew I had a chance for sweet victory. |
I lost this way once.
Now if I am losing the 1on1 early, I feel it's the only shot to get victory and it's pretty much the cheapest way to win.
They key is you can't really use ANY munitions so, no shreks, no nades....just retreat, retreat, retreat. Also it can only be done on US not soviets. |
Amazing comeback. Kudos for sticking in there when he practically had the whole map. Those easy 8 attacks on his base while the KT was around was smart. Took away his capping power and lowered his morale. I could see him slowly getting more confused that you didn't quit earlier.
I think some of his mistakes were wasting his ammo on the arty attacks. Also...losing the panther was not smart. Should have saved that for when the KT arrived.
I also think he made too many Luchs as you obviously had enough AT to handle it. |
So 1 jeep usually does the trick against OKW but this guy had a plan of rushing his sws truck alongside the kubel.
Well, my plan was kill the sws and make it a struggle for him to make early armor.
I could have just played normal but I felt I best chase down his truck and buy myself some time.
I had felt I would lose until I met 2 conditions.
#1 - Kill Kubel at all costs.
#2 - Kill sws truck and buy time.
#3 - nail in coffin make AA truck and hide near trees so his puma would chase it and get too close.
Paid off. |
Everything went right "except" the stolen Sherman. Just a clarification. |
Many opportunities to win....just way to passive. You had entire map but let him just sit there. He wasn't even massing an army. He was just sitting there waiting for the King Tiger.
The best question is....why did you NOT attack him with your tanks earlier when he had nothing? He literally had 4-5 units compared to your multitude of units doing nothing. Just bad play from both sides except he had KT on his side. I'm sure you actually learned ALOT from this game actually. You gotta know that anyone who plays like that guy is easy to beat. Wait till you face guys that play very offensively....then you will not see a KT most likely and you will lose even faster. |
I don't see that m20 called in after the easy 8s but it proved to be seriously useful. GG |
This is not always easy to do because you can't have shreks only AT and it's hard to deal with the US horde but it only works on US not Soviets. Check it out. I learned this by getting it done to me and no matter if you are losing or not you can win.
I was called cheap....but a really good player will somehow prevent this from happening.
So basically I don't call in any tanks until Ostwind or Luch. Although in this case I needed 2 barrages. Enjoy. |
Wow...how do you love with all that firepower....insane. |
