Capture Strategies

what exactly is an "aren"?

It is something an A will help.

I only got frustrated since they added the ack guns back in town..

i actually dislike the town ack also, and I am probably a defense guy 90% of the time.. anything that discourages enemy vehicles from entering my town is not good IMO.. can have great cat and mouse gv fights in there, but im not so sure they want to deal with the auto ack..

Thats a problem that I see. The old town ack was easy to see and kill in a GV. Now your getting shot up from behind hedgerows and you cant shoot the ack down.. I am sure HTC will fix that small problem in the future.. Your right. looking forward to that town tank battle. Still havent found one yet..

Harder for GV;s I'll agree, but patience and finding the right vantage point will fix that most times.

And it really is not that hard for 2 or more guys to run a bomber sortie that would 80% level the town and the acks.  Leaving the GV's free to run in and clean up.

Or 1 good level bomber and a couple of guys in a20's, and a few jabo's should take the town down quick clean and fast.

True, hard to lob a tank shell 100 yards over a hedgerow for an ack firing thru the bushes. Also had a town ack chew me up in the town firing thru one of the concrete walls. Was wierd watching the tracers emerge from the center of the concrete.

Better strategy:

Dont take the base and furball

agreed 

what else is there...

[dkff49]

Keep the towns down for longer would be a good start.  Loki, whom I rarely agree with, summed it up nicely.

I think this is a good idea but I think that if they do this they should allow the town to be re-supply-able.

I personally don't play the base capture portion of the game but if the attackers can get the base by sneaking one lone goon in for a capture why shouldn't the defenders be able to sneak in a few supplies to reduce the time that the town stays down. It's not like it is that easy to sneak in anyway.

Well Bishland just took a map.  So it's not impossible.

They took it while nobody was playing early in the day.  As usual.

They took it right now with 200 players in arena

Yeah, I was there. It was brilliant.  Cheers to our master strategist, Chewie.  We're doomed if he ever gets a life.

Then what happened?

[Muzzy]

Then what happened?

Then there was an arena-wide fireworks display accompanied by the music of "Ride of the Valkyries". The sky opened up, and a large mystical lion named Aslan appeared to lead the triumphant bish through the magic gate to the new arena map, where the Buffalo, Wildcat, and Jug live in peaceful harmony to this day.  Plus we all got perk points.

Well, okay...we did get perk points. And there was a new map.
