You know, imagine all the cool and unique stuff people did in games but were never recorded or recognized by anyone or told.

[@commandercrane1945]

Before I started recording, there was this one time that I dropped an airhead right beside the enemies point at WN7. We had just captured their last sector, none of them were there yet. We spawned in and moved into the house and as we did that, in the courtyard there was a garrison. One second later 25+ people spawned on it and we fortunately had a machine gunner, thompsons, and grenades and took them all out. It was a blood bath. After that I decided I should record every time I play. XD I did take a screenshot of the aftermath though.

[@SkillZgetKillZ]

So what happened here is this man understood the mindset of his enemy fanning out believing they have the luxury to prepare for a future engagement rather than an immediate assault. Using his speed and stealth as a lone element to split the defense and secure a safe LZ for Blu forces then immediately transitioning to denying the enemy the same. All the while, driving through the hostile front issuing fire orders and combat movements, without directly watching the roadway. Sending WARNOs of possible enemy ambush locations, before they can be established as effective fighting positions. While being hunted by enemy armor before assaulting the final objective, continuing to order indirect fire on enemy defensive positions which are still not able to be properly established.

[@commandercrane1945]

You have described it well. This kind of maneuver especially works if you start to notice the enemy is better in 1:1 combat. It’s not easy, but before you take an objective you have to be immediately ready to send forces to the next objective to limit as much 1:1 combat possible. I think I mostly posted this because I did all this, personally, without dying. I do this maneuver a lot, but I’m not usually personally leading the charge… I’ll get recon to do it.

[@Lidrien]

Learning alot from your videos. Thanks a bunch.

[@commandercrane1945]

No problem!

[@shrymq9087]

That's the problem ... it's all about who spawns in the right place at the right time ... a garrison. And that works because the majority of players focus on the actual gameplay, which is displaced by it. You don't need to expand positions ... (The whole building system is more than superfluous and bumbling.), you don't need tactics. You just have to place a garrison fast enough in the right place and hope that your teammates will notice it and your majority will surprise the opponent or he will overrun in principle.

[@captainjirk9564]

[@dierdred_the_gray]

if its a whiz instead of a crack, its not at you.

[@superandreanintendo]

For the airhead, my tip is to drop it in the small gardens on right of smdm church, kind of 70-80°. People can still push from 2 different roads, less risk of enemy overruning airhead and most important if you keep staying east eventually you don't have to run the open fields like you did but stick to tree line on the road east

[@commandercrane1945]

I sometimes do that. my thought process of dropping it where I did was because I could defend it myself and I was quite sure they had no one there since Pierres was getting so much pressure. If the airhead failed, it was a distraction to get up the garrison. At the end, I ran through that open field toward The Fields because I knew I had to get there as fast as possible and it was likely no enemies were there yet.

[@fraternitas5117]

[@commandercrane1945]

I actually always join the underdog team and try to destroy the stacked teams. This is an example. When you go against stacked teams, it is important to quickly capture the map. Avoid 1:1 combat as much as possible. You can see how good this team was by the fact they were capturing center point immediately after initial cap. They started to take church almost immediately too. They even started to take back the last sector until the precision strike took out their tank. Figured I’d point this out, many of my videos are me going against stacked teams.

[@bobross8734]

[@odeca8121]

Commanders that drops airheads inside the point are the best and understood the game mechanics. in HLL people tends to run around too much instaed of getting streight in the point, which loses the element of surprise an airhead is supposed to give. Got criticized way too much in the past for doing it since sometimes it does get spotted and taken down.

[@BeerSougion]

That is because if you have two teams of good players, they would never build garries in the cap circle but 3 or 4 around the cap. That gives much stronger map control and will not make you loose after one precision strike on your garry. Only when you are steamrolling the enemy it works with the airhead or garry inside.

[@renstillmann]

"This early" you say, but you already can deploy an airhead...? Already got 2 full sets of nodes up. You already had three US Outposts on SE of the Barn. So I definitely don't call it early. I'd say just as soon as you capped the point like you'd mostly would do if you have a backuo garry in case things go south. You had only one, so it's still a big risk. They already lost the point so they should have had people going to defense the moment they knew they would lose the mid cap. The enemy also made it easy putting the garry at the most convenient place of all times. For whatever reason there was no one there amd you could even drive past their garry, lol. Wouldn't even be surprised if that was their only garry too on st marie. Since it's exactly in the middle of the point. Just an easy opponent. Not just that, no one going for the Airhead? Really? Especially since you probably popped it as soon as it was available? That's the worst thing you can do if you play against a somewhat decent team. But I guess this opponent was asleep for the majority of the game 😴 I like aggressive plays but mostly when it fails you got a big problem especially because people don't retreat that quickly as you'd (order) like them to. The enemy clearly screwed up big time. I'd say a typical HLL match. 😁👍 Not sure if the Jeep makes it a better game. Seems the recons are now a bit OP just destroying garry after garry. Now Support is even more crucial then ever to be able to quickly rebuild a garry if you lost one.
