Whats the first thing you do when you loggin?
« on: October 17, 2008, 08:09:37 AM »
As the title says what, what's the first thing you look for?

After a quick .SR I take a qiuick look at the map to get an overall feel for whats going on , then I look to see if any of our bases are under attack or likey to become under attack.  If its already being defended I might look for others which are not...

So what do you do?
- Attack with the rest of the green dots
- Look for the biggest Red Darbar and head towards it
- Defend a flashing base
- Move the CV's
- Try and get a mission rolling
- Or sit back and get a feel for whats going on before upping

Check map then set cv way points.  Defened a flashing base especially if it's sneaky Gv's.

I try to go with these two, but more often than not, I get requests to dispose of enemy CV's.

EDIT: Actually the first thing I do is type on country channel, "<S> Bishies" and <S> my BOP bro's.

take a look at the map
- look for CV in play to up from
- look for base to defend with possible CV offshore
