[Wargame: AirLand Battle] Saturday pub heroes

Post by Sao »

I vote for a WGALB marathon on Saturday at SBT because it is the best game ever.

If we could get 10 people minimum we could do our own 10 versus a random 10.

I will also run a PACT workshop (with duke as well probably) for those without a pact deck.

Obviously.

1. Sao
2. Duke


For those participating we can do several different things (also depending on attendance):

1) Organize 5-10 person teams to curb stomp pubbies in 10v10s
2) Organize 3-4 person teams to curb stomp pubbies in 3v3s or 4v4s
3) Organize some inter-GC games playing against each other
4) Sao and I can do some tutorials on specific tools/tactics/strategies/capabilities and/or help people build some new decks

Potential topics for tutorials:

Pact: How to Play
Deck Composition and Bonuses (either straight up building decks for people, doing that and explaining why and how we're doing things, or just a discussion about the deck creation mechanic)
How and When to play Category B or C Decks
Reading and Understanding the Stats
How to apply AirLand Battle Doctrine to Wargame:Airland Battle
Urban Warfare
Effectively Using Air for your purposes
Strategy within a Constructs of Winning the Round

The list can continue and I'd be happy to put together discussions/tutorials etc on whatever topics people want to listen to, are interested in and would find helpful.

Post ideas/preferences/etc below! I'll be working on these this week.

Well I didn't know, you could of gone and bought a life and gone out drinking! :'D

However I know from our 6v6 teh other night, other than g0nzo you guys are not to comfortable with PACT, and played right, PACT will poo all over NATO (T80Us make me shiver when they have so much air cover with SU27s on standby and 10ish units of cheap radar gun and missile aa)

Only 1, even in a cat C deck.

And 250, but you need to bring it in first FOB style.

And it does nothing apart from increasing the point cost of other units by 200% and reduces availability to 1.

Oh and did I mention it had 20 armour all round, no weapons, and can't move and is perma hidden?

*BUMP*

Alternatively, if you're a proud WGALB owner and can't make it Saturday, let us know what times work better for a big GC WGALB event.

And if you don't have it, see here.

I'm happy to play NATO and/or teach things about NATO. Sao and I just thought that if people who aren't comfortable with PACT wanted a how-to that would be a good topic to cover with plenty of free Saturday time.
