The pickings were a little slimmer tonight, but we decided to jump in Clan Wars for the heck of it. The first match was in the Mines of Cyprus against the CanadianGunNutz. We only had 9 brave souls going in, and Fiddler created a defensive plan… but we knew the odds would be against us, and we were in it just for the fun. It was fun… but it was fast, as we were facing a team of 12 so we were outgunned and out manned from the start. Had we a full team, we would have had a decent shot. More people online, growing the team and grinding up, will take care of that…
Our second battle was on the Cliffs of Jutland, facing Angels of Death – Wilde Jagd for the semi-finals. By battle time, we had a full team of 15, and weren’t looking too shabby. They were pretty heavily armed, and played defensively at first. When attacking a defensive position, rounding the corner opens you up to their arty. It is far better to take a defensive position against a more heavily armoured team, and draw them around the bend to open them to our arty. Overall, it was a good effort, and lessons were learned.
A great shout-out goes to Fiddler, who has been calling the shots for us over the past few days. A good tactician already, he is doing a wonderful job of being adaptive, working with the vehicles we have going in and modifying his strategy as we grind and learn.
