Reign Omega BurgezzE.T.F General Tso's Alliance 496	Posted - 2014.07.03 16:28:00 - [1] - Quote If you had to build a 6 man squad full of "hard counters" for the current, and some still surviving bs tactics people use in this game, how would you go about it? What's the ideal roster to be able to stop these fotm mongers dead in their tracks? Observe the public trust. Protect the innocent. Uphold the law.

What's the ideal roster to be able to stop these fotm mongers dead in their tracks? 2 sentinals with a side arm damage mod or two, ADV/Proto Magsec Side Arm, ADV/Proto Forge 2 min scouts, 2 complex dampeners, 1 enhanced kinkat, 3 complex shield extenders, proto light weapon of choice (ScP/ScR/Shotgun), proto uplink, adv injectors 2 Amarr logies, 3 complex precision enhancers, 1 complex range amp, 1 complex armor plate, 1 enhanced armor plate, dual honed rep tool, proto uplink, injector on 1 and armor reps, ammo reps, and proto uplink on the other Sentinals keep lav's, DS's, ADS's, and tanks away/at bay. If infantry gets heavy they throw their flux and finish the rest with magsec. Min scouts work together on hacks, stay under cal radar and can escape quickly and drop an uplink on a losing battle to get reinforcements Amarr logis can have the super fast spawns for the Heavies. Heavies should be brick tanked out. I run this exact forge fit with my Adv Amarr Sentinal to massive success in one on ones against other heavies with proto HMG's. The flux does all of the serious work. The magsec just does the rest. You can see how the uplinks will help. Everyone runs flux to destroy equipment and shields on everything so that the heavies can maximize effort. This is my ideal set up...even for PC I would do something like this.

Excellent question dear merc! FOTMers can't resist the urge an easy kill that is the assault class. Here is what you do: -You take the assault and chain him to a pole. Ignore his cries for help and mercy. -Have the cal scout cloak and just sit there and watch him. -When the cal scout detects FOTMers advancing on the assault, have cal scout point them out to rest of squad. -Squad kills FOTMers. -Rinse and repeat. *If the assault some how gets loose, catch him, break his legs, and chain him up again. For every point of happiness we gain in this game, our madness increases exponentially.

It was very well organized and a thing of beauty to watch, even being on the receiving end. All I could do was send the pilot a gg Embracing my inner scrub since 2013.

Pvt Numnutz Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 1611	Posted - 2014.07.04 06:54:00 - [34] - Quote Vulpes Dolosus wrote: Perhaps not a strict FotM counter, but I've always wanted to see a squad of 2 ADSs with heavies and/or a logi riding along and hopping out to hack points or kill people. Works better with one ADS without guns and more tank and the other ADS with guns transporting the squad. Transport ADS flies in and drops squad, provides what support he can until clip is empty or av is spotted. Transport ads bugs out high and awaits pickup order while tanked ads comes in to provide close air support. Transport ads can advise on hostile vehicle movement for close air. Once point is hacked, tanked ads moves to next point to scout while transport ads retrieves squad and moves to the, now scouted, objective. I've done this before and it works out really well. Though its also effective to run one ads with two gunners and two shock troops one of which being a min scout super hacker and dropping them at points while providing cover. Best point control you can possible get. And two XT gunners make excellent covering fire.

Try running three complex precision enhancers and a complex range amplifier. So much fun to drop scouts with a Viziam on that fit. The Amarr scout bonus is like the old Amarr sentinel bonus. No one needed 25% reduction to overheat damage on a heavy;_;

As much as I love the Matari, this squad wouldn't do so well for a few things. First thing is that the Matari Logi gets a boost to rep tools, so not having one is just the worst way to run it. Second, Matari sentinels are hit-and-run style game play due to highest sentinel speeds and decent shields. They are not built for extended combat like the Amarr, Caldari, and Gallente. You will need a sentinel in a squad that can take a hit if your squad goes against another sentinel. Third thing is that minjas are definately not the best snipers. They make the best hackers and will do better in CQC with a cloak then in the rear with a sniper. Snipers are best used (in my opinion) on Caldari Commandos due to their damage boost to rail weapons. And thats pretty much it. Oh, and the Minmando should use nanohives not a reptool... Legionhares Unite!
