    "Schwerpunkt" isn't just military jargon, it's used in every-day German life as well :)
    It describes the main focus of something you do. The literal translation actually would be "center of mass", but here the word is not just applied to physics.

      @@lukeanderton5529 Well, if that's the level of your clan's gameplay, I've got to say that I'm deeply impressed. I served as a conscript with the Royal NL Army with the armored infantry and it took our company months of training/rehearsals in the real world to get our vehicle crews and commanders to get it right each (simulated) time and on the firing ranges. Being under armor the situational awareness in a 1980ies vehicle (YPR-765 PRI) isn't nearly as sophisticated as the WoT interface, but it says something about your clan's capabilities. If all works out, it's a delight to watch.

      clan battles are not the place to learn where to tank in random battles. you're not in voice coms coordinating like these guys are. best to watch good players in similar tanks to the ones you're driving playing in random battles themselves, especially when they're in 1 on 1 situations, or situations where coordinating with their platoon (cos no unicum does anything alone) aren't as impactful.

      It's very different when you have a commander who tells everyone where to go, who to kill by focus-fire, etc. I haven't played clan wars much, probably something like 30-40 battles or something like that, but it's entirely different from randoms. If I recall correctly, the commander also knows the map in advance, so they can determine what strategy to employ, what kind of tanks they need to carry out the chosen strategy, etc.

Cairo had an American major who reported everything back to washington (they where still debating joining the war and wanted so see how the allies went). giving Rommel all of the allies plans for attacks before they happened so he was able to react before the battle started....and his secret listening platoon (that was captured by either aussies or kiwis on patrol by accident lol) who commented that the brits tank commanders radio discipline was woeful meant he had an easy time fighting the allies. Eventually the Americans realised their cypher had been cracked and changed and with the platton captured Rommels serious advantages were gone, which is when he went into his preferred defence mode with lots of mines and minefields.

    Think of it like this (and all else being equal): in a 1-on-1 both tanks will reduce each other's hit points at the same rate. In a 2-on-1, the two tanks will eliminate the enemy in half the time, so the enemy will only do half a tank of damage. In a 3-on-1, the enemy tank will only do a third of a tank of damage, and so on. It's why you never want to get isolated, and why you should pounce on isolated enemy tanks.

    The concept of a schwerpunkt or a decisive point in English military terminology has been around since at least Epaminondas of Thebes defeated the Spartans by weighting one of his flanks to quickly crush and roll up the weaker Spartan flank facing them. It was Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar's ability to commit their best troops at the decisive point of action that allowed them to achieve such stunning victories against numerically superior opponents.

      Yeah. AFAIK, the term Schwerpunkt is from German general and military theorist Carl von Clausewitz. Later German generals during 19th and 20th century used and refined his military theories. One can find Clausewitz´s book "On War" from different sources such as Project Guttenberg for free.

    Schwerpunkt is the core aspect of Blitzkrieg warfare. Basically, Schwerpunkt breakthrough means potential encirclements, especially in the North African terrain which is quite narrow and allows for encirclements. However, it can be countered quite easily by (ironically) fortifications and concentrated defences. Also, you need the terrain to cooperate. Monty did not necessarily employ Schwerpunkt attacks of his own, but rather started to counter them more effectively by layered defense structures.

      @kaltaron1284 2 года назад

      The counter is called "defense in depth" or something like that, isn't it? In the later stages of the war the Soviets sometimes used three layers of defense to prevent the Germans from breaking through.

    Retired German armored infantry officer here... Schwerpunkt is one of the key concepts in German tactics. However, it is not about using all your available forces on one point but as many as you can without neglecting your responsibilites in your sector. In defense that would mean set your Schwerpunkt where you think your enemy will put his, but be prepard to switch if you got it wrong. In attack set your Schwerpunkt where the enemy seems weekest. Schwerpunkt is not only about massing your forces, that is a consequence of it, but also a way of reasoning where you want to force a decision.

    WG have been planning on moving to Cyprus for some time now, first buying a bank there and then buying that big office block in down town Limassol. I suspect that recent EU Cypriot cash for passports scandal involving WG employees has somewhat delayed the plan. Now with the possible future monetary sanctions the rush to distance themselves from Belarus has put the original plan back on track. Seeing that wOt player base is huge (dwarfing all the other servers combined) in Russia it is interesting why they risk upsetting players on RU by moving the game in such a time.

    Hi Jingles this was not a clan wars battle, it's another mode called advance these battles you don't get gold you get ingame resource and points towards your clan rating. When doing clan wars you do not see the enemy tanks listed as fog of war is in effect, this is just a game mode where you fight between 3-6 battle depending if you get to the enemy head quarters or you bounce between wins and losses. It was clear these guys where camping at the start of the game with the tank choice they had with so many E3 you don't push as they are way to slow to move in open maps.

He then went on to plan one of the most botched operations in WW2 military history(which you have mentioned previously) Operation Market Garden, despite warning from local resistance and his own staff of german troop strength. The man was a tool that was lucky.

    Throwing in a super flammy "achchually, Jingles..."
    The concept of the "Schwerpunkt" doesn't really entail to concentrate all your fire power in one point. It just means choosing one objective you really want to achieve and then committing the majority of your forces to it.
    The use of the word "Schwerpunkt", a "main point of focus", indicates that there is at least one other point of lesser focus.
    It isn't just some thing the Germans did in WW2, it is pretty much state of the art of tactics worldwide nowadays.
    In tactical lessons and examinations on most military academies in the world, you pretty much automatically fail if you forget one of two things:
    A: You always plan in reserves.
    B: You always chose a "Schwerpunkt", a point of focus.
    If you for example are faced with 2 or more strategically important points in your area of operations, like for example one hill and one town, you don't just split your forces in two equal halves and send each to one of the targets. You chose which target you consider more important and then you send most of your forces there and send your weaker forces to the other, prepared to just entangle and stall the enemy, while your "Schwerpunkt" force does the main push and hopefully takes the more important target.
    Even if both (or more) targets are totally equally as important, you still focus on one of them and there are good, logical and tactical reasons for that.
    The whole thing is basically "Proto Game Theory".
    The idea is that statistically you will almost always be better off when you apply your forces asymmetrically and focus on one side of the battlefield.
    Let's say you put most of your forces on the left side (the Left Wing) of the battlefield. Unless you have superior recon/intelligence and know exactly what the enemy is doing, that leaves you with 3 possibilities:
    1.) The enemy is stupid and did not chose a "Schwerpunkt" and did not bolster either wing of the battlefield, then your stronger wing will push through his spread out forces and will be able to swing around and encircle the rest of them.
    2.) The enemy's "Schwerpunkt" meets yours on your left wing. Then at least you stand the best chance of stopping his push and at least you cancelled him out.
    3.) His "Schwerpunkt" pushes through your weaker forces on your right, while yours pushes through his weaker forces on your left wing. Then you still have the initiative and can choose to abort your push and attack his pushing force from the side or the rear.
    Refusing to chose a strong side and spreading your forces out more or less homogeneously leaves the initiative to the enemy. You are always better off forming a "Schwerpunkt".

    Insanity had good strategy but his aim and decision making while brawling was appallingly bad. Auto-aimed when he should have properly aimed, didn't shoot weakspots, wasted precious time .... didn't try to get around the 268 v4, just sat in front of him... He got insanely lucky with the enemies apparently not knowing how to aim either.. I mean his team won, but it was close enough that a bad play from one player can throw the game. I've been there and I've learned to absolutely take no prisoners and not make any mistakes until every last enemy is dead. I hate to be negative but it was funny to me how bad he was at brawling lol. I was practically yelling at the screen when he shot the Super Conq's turret. Play a few thousand games in World of Tanks Blitz and you'll learn how to brawl and come out of 2v1's (completely alone) on top.

      As someone who has been involved in clan wars with a top 25 clan going up against the top 5 on the USA servers on a daily basis. This is what I can tell you when you get into these situations. You don't have any time to aim properly for weak spots. That 2 seconds it takes to aim at a lower plate in a brawl that could be the difference between you staying alive or dead. The only time you have to snipe at weak points is when you're in the back in a stealthy tank destroyer and you might get 2 shots off before they spot you and kill you.

If he had known how to brawl he would have been able to kill the S conq and 268 all by himself simply by sidehugging the 268 while poking out to shoot the S conq.
