I would like to address the allied squads that are frequenting the arena with some encouragement and a bit of my perspective about your game.
first off in my opinion you guys are improving. you are getting killed still but at least for me it is taking longer to do so. that is a marked improvement.
secondly, you guys are coming away from your ack a little bit and that is allowing you to apply pressure on a broader front. you guys consistently have greater numbers keep in mind that you cannot capture bases from your bases you must step away from the ack in order to attack.
thirdly, when you attack a base and as players get pixellated it is imperative that the few living players stay and hold as best they can until your reinforcements arrive. using 19 as an example you guys came within three drunks of capturing but because you were down to three attackers those guys fled allowing us to kill the troops already running which would have given you the capture. the reason for those players RTBing was so that they could land their three of four vultched kills each.
and lastly, you guys don't need to climb so high. notice that it takes you longer to get up to 10-12k and the end result is that in three seconds you are on the deck, pixellated and back in the tower. come in at about 5k come in with a tight formation not a daisy chain of cannon fodder you will be far more effective if you do so.
I want to salute flatiron particularly. you are developing some some good smooth slow handling skills and you are doing so with every ride you are in. if you are working with a trainer thank him. if you are not working with a trainer seek one out he will save you months of time, you have the potential to become very good.
