I watched the advanced gamplay guide like 2 months ago and I must say, that video actually helped me understand the game, make my own decks and most importantly - be confident enough to PLAY MULTIPLAYER! Now I'm 150 games in the game with 60% win.I applaud every pro player that tries to give us insight on the game and I sure hope you give us more tips on how to be good at it. If I can put a request it will be to share some tactics on how to play artillery or defend from it. It seems a lot of pro players abuse it and sometimes it's hell. I'm trying my best, but I feel I'm missing something.
Welcome to my Ted talk. Imo there's only 2 real ways to defend against artillery. (If anyone knows another way I'd like to hear it) 1: counter artillery. This usually requires some knowledge on the artillery pieces in game (fire rate, shots in a salvo, movement speed), both to choose your artillery and to make a reasonable guess as to what the enemy is using. Most artillery players use shift-click, which means after firing their salvo, they'll move to a new location. In my experience the best counter-arty arty are fast firing heat mlrs with a wide zone of effect. You'll need to predict their movement, which can be done by noting the spots they're firing from (they're usually a repeated sequence). 2: Keep your units moving as much as possible, especially after firing. Ensure static units are placed in unpredictable positions (the big forest might seem more comforting, but the tree line next to it not only gives you better LOS, it also allows you to move away more quickly if artillery does start raining down on you. Just be aware of enemy recon). Keep all your units reasonably spread out (i.e. not all hiding in that same forest on the edge of a zone). Some tips, maybe obvious idk. - always ensure you have recon. Always. Good recon can be used in both offense and defense roles, and the units themselves can be really good. It's essential. -Units move faster when not forested, but forests break los (movement speed will help you avoid incoming arty). If in order to keep moving you're forced to operate on open ground (open ground is tank territory, rarely inf), make sure you have a good AA net to cover you. You can do your thing in the open while baiting planes and wasting enemy supply (if arty is focusing you). - AA units generally don't have to move as much as you can dot them around behind your frontline. However they still need to move occasionally, especially after firing. When choosing positions for your AA look for good los and also places nearby they can relocate to. - as a relatively new player you should be thinking about the cost of the units you're sending out. "Am I likely to make these points back". For example I see many new players that go arty, spend all their starting points on arty, and then finish the game with less than half the points of which they started with. It has the same effect as giving the enemy free kills, i.e. taking units away from the front line. I'm not claiming I'm a pro player, this is just what I've learned from just over 1000hours. I still get surprised by the tactics and units players use, probably the reason why I still play.
+Makzimiser When the plane evacs, it wants to turn back to where it came from (the air corridor). It will turn whichever way requires less turning in order to face it. If it's equally easy to turn left or right in order to face the air corridor, it will turn left.
i've seen choppers getting destroyed by tanks while hovering but this was the first time i saw a tank shoot some from the sky. does it also work while the chopper is moving?
At 7:20 in the video you said that that Recon should be able to see the tanks once you moved it to the edge of the forest but then it didn't see them anyway lolwut is up with that??
"Tanks can target helicopters... a little cheesy..." Ffw to 2022, and we see Russian Mi-24's getting destroyed by discount TOW's because they're spending too much time hovering in one place.
are we playing or studying multiplication, don't think many would want to to sit and solve math problems, oh so this is for "PRO's" """ONLY""" guess that's leaves me out
Nei, var litt demoraliserende at Eugen sluttet å jobbe på spillet, i tillegg ga venner opp spillet. Prøvde litt steel division, men det er ikke helt det samme.
Your accuracy calculation is stupid and you should fix it. Being 132% of what you were before increases your damage output by exactly 32%, no matter what. Don't talk mathematics if you don't grasp it.
Can't tell if trolling or actually this stupid. After adding the increase I illustrate the flat value that's added to the base percentage because that's a relevant number. Because I'm trying to show how 32% of shit is still shit while 32% of shittons become shittons when we see it in meaningful terms. See? All we care about is how much closer we get to a final value of 100% when a unit is actually firing. If you add 32% to nothing you're not much closer to 100% accuracy. Talk shit get hit. Also, when talking about tanks or just low fire-rate things, you're not gonna sit there 5ever and trade shots. You're gonna take a couple. Or even one, before backing off. Because after morale goes down the toilet, so does accuracy and firerate. So if you get the first shot off, you win. Or it's going to be one before they back off. So in those instances you only care about damage output in the first few exchanges and so you want reliability and not theoretical hurp durp damage average that you get over 10 years. For high refire things like machineguns it makes more sense to see it in terms of damage over time. Since infantry and some lighter vehicles do have a contiuous exchange.
Wargame Red Dragon is a live 4chan board with everyone interested in geopolitics. It also has a weird RTS minigame.
Now that you mention it, I am tired of being pooped on in stacked lobbies
:)
2 years later and i realize you use a clip of you nae naein'g on my strv-121 at 0:17 when you were trying to teach me how to play

But can you teach me how to streamsnipe?
+The Firestarter Try checking out patton's stream. I hear he's a pioneer in this area.
This is good.
Thank you.
another tip for finding enemy recon in a large forest sometimes its better to set a screen of cheap transports instead of recon
Great tips, hope to see more such videos about Wargame
Thanks for making this
+Makzimiser could you explain the evac mechanics in more detail actually?
+Makzimiser When the plane evacs, it wants to turn back to where it came from (the air corridor). It will turn whichever way requires less turning in order to face it. If it's equally easy to turn left or right in order to face the air corridor, it will turn left.
Thanks, that helped a lot. Subscribed.
i've seen choppers getting destroyed by tanks while hovering but this was the first time i saw a tank shoot some from the sky. does it also work while the chopper is moving?
Ive been doing it
all wrong....
Love the old RD video - Clickbait title though - Protips? These are day #4 101's.
good tips! i'm new and i was just asking myself this questions!
thanks!
PS: can we have more etails about stealth, aircraft and how "push" ? thanks!
really helpful video! please more!
Lets have more of this shit
good ship, more!
Sike, Eugen did change it so you can't Fire Position on helos
Sure you can. I did it just two days ago.
more pls
good tips
Thank you!
But what if you are playing with Putin and he keep doing halo rush and put all vehicles in a line?
You got a nice channel anon.
+InterpunctTV Thanks anon!
you can get infantry out of vehicles? boy, oh boy, how fun this game would be if it had a proper tutorial lmao
It does it’s called read ya lazy fucks
I play only for warchat.
nice, thanks
are you sure about the veterancy accuracy?
3:59 bruh us war thunder players knew that from the start
At 7:20 in the video you said that that Recon should be able to see the tanks once you moved it to the edge of the forest but then it didn't see them anyway lolwut is up with that??
Because there are no tanks there.
bruh whats the porblem with ussr

I been playing Wargame red dragon since 2014 and I fell somewhere between mid tier.
Bring on the noobstompers!
Lmao
spiller du fortsatt?
Nei, var litt demoraliserende at Eugen sluttet å jobbe på spillet, i tillegg ga venner opp spillet. Prøvde litt steel division, men det er ikke helt det samme.
@@integ3r SD når ikke helt opp til WG... Jeg spiller fortsatt med noen venner, og det er noen flere norske spillere igjen.
Bra video, forresten.
@@monsters8730 Hadde vært morsomt å prøve igjen. Bare å legge til på steam om dere trenger noen å spille med.
