    I was wondering what your tactics were in a game mode of either, rtdm, or a battle server.

    I see that generally most people on rtdm do:
    1. Stab
    2. Shield
    3. Rinse and repeat
     
  2. Hmm.. I'd say:

    1. Eat banana
    2. No bananas.
    3. Look for more bananas.
    4. Rape any damn enemy who may have a banana in pocket.
    5. Find a nearby tree when you're out of ammo
    6. Search for bananas.
    7. Kill the remaining peasants glorious knights because of selling bananas to the market.

    This is the way I do it as well. Double slashes are usually involved.:skull:

    1. Be archer.
    2. Get to a relatively safe spot.
    3. Fire!
    4. If an enemy knight or bomb gets to close, run!
    5. If you die, got to step 1. Else, go to step 2.

    I've taken to accepting the fact that I'm terrible in most things that I try, and for this reason I don't play archer at all. I swear, it seems like some server-dominating archers use some sort of overlay to predict their trajectory. Irritating.

    As a builder, I play to my strengths. I usually stick near the front lines, but I tend to prioritise repairing to aiding a knight rush. I retreat from fights unless I have the advantage healthwise, or tactics-wise.

    What do I mean by that? I typically hide in bridges, among debris, or a few blocks above the battlefield. When I see an enemy builder or archer in range, I'll pop out/ drop down and Maxwell Edison them. I also enjoy dropping in on dueling knights, to give my guy an edge.

    My knight combat style is similar. I don't get involved in slashfests because I'm utterly convinced I'd lose, unless my noble sacrifice is needed to distract a cadre of knights from some fleeting builders or to kill/bomb a particularly useful builder, structure, or shop on the other team. I stick to the high ground, jump in on distracted foes, and retreat to gather health or protect the base.

    I do use bombs strategically, though. I tend to throw them at distracted archers or builders, often from skybridges or behind the typical front lines. I only really bomb distracted knights in clusters, like shield ladders or tunnel squads. Bomb-flying-from-hidden-bridge is also an effective combat technique for defending the base.

    Typically, though, I don't waste time with the player versus player squallor and instead rush catapults to take down the enemies with precision.

    1 take out any other archers
    2 Find a knight from my team and support him as archer
    3 Lead knights from the other team around and around so they cant help there team mates

    CTF/war
    1 rush and hold the line as long as i can while trying to snipe as many builders as i can to mess with there building
    2 take out any other archers or lock them down so they cant shoot at my team mates
    3 kill as many builders as i can (if you're an archer and your not shooting builders as much as you can you're doing it wrong)
    4 jump in to the other teams base and use the trees to kill as many people as i can before jumping out or dying
    5 support the knights on your team so they can get more kills

    Charge into fight. Destroy everything. If no targets are present and impassable wall is there. Either A, tunnel and chip away at wall with slashes to get in. Or B, most of the time I'm not in the mood and just wait outside the wall for a worthy challenger. Or a hardcore lagger, long sword, clash my slashes, invulnerable shield dude.

    How do I fight? Well, my fighting style is to adapt to circumstances around me. Thus an average game tends to unfold like so:
    1. Join server
    2. Deal with griefer/speedhacker(s)
    3. Go knight/assault builder/offensive archer depending on team need
    4. Keep swapping out class depending on team need (there's always something being neglected, so this is a constant process)
    5. Stop to deal with griefer/speedhacker(s)
    6. Cycle between steps 4 & 5 for a while
    7. As lives reach <50, swap to losing team because the rats scrubs haven't yet learned to honourably go down with their ship and someone needs to help the poor buggers that stay hold the line.
    8. Start telling my new teammates to "Fall back, we're low on lives! Fall back and regroup!"
    9. Start minecrafting (both for coins and to build up the [generally] shoddy base) and continue to shout at teammates to "BLOODY FALL BACK ALREADY! GO DEFENSIVE! STOP WASTING LIVES WE HAVEN'T VERY MANY LEFT!"
    10. Continue to minecraft and swear at teammates "YOU F***ING MAGGOTS!!! FALL BACK IN LINE AND THEN STAND YOUR F***ING GROUND!!! WE CAN F***ING WIN THIS IF YOU'LL ONLY START WORKING AS A TEAM FFS!!!!!!! D:<"
    11. Lives reach 0 at which point one of two things happens:
      • After a protracted siege, where the enemy lose their last 30 lives pushing against the fancy castle I've been minecrafting as I spend my 1000s of coins raining bombs down on their heads, I (sometimes accompanied by a fellow survivor) finally emerge victorious! :B):
      • I get screwed over by lag (and/or by some 'improvement' a scrub made to my glorious fort) and we lose. :rollseyes:
    Ofc, sometimes things don't work that way, sometimes I play with non-scrubs and it's a different kind of game... But mostly not. :p

    (Builder)
    1. Build small, useless tower.
    2. Collapse stone down onto enemy below.
    3. Go collect their coins and resources.
    4. Repeat steps 1-3.

    OR

    1. Repeat above.
    2. Stomp onto enemy below.
    3. If any survive, spam the right mouse button until dead. (Providing they have hearts below 1.5)

    (Knight)
    1. Move forward to assault enemy tower.
    2. Try to either bomb jump over it or get over it some how.
    3. Any enemy knight approaches, I kill them.
    4. Any enemy builder/archer approaches, I absolutely **** them. (W/ jabspam)

    (Archer)
    1. Collect arrows.
    2. Go up to frontlines and hide in grass, trees, or up in tower.
    3. Shoot enemy with varying powered arrows, while team mates distract them.
    4. Climb over tower with arrows, shoot all their workshops while all the enemy is dead.

    Here's mine:

    1. Join game
    2. If its the start or I see a poor building I'll improve it ( try at least)
    3. Stare at the builder who decides to 'help'
    4. Go knight
    5. If far away from enemies slash/ if close to enemies sheild and occasionally jab.
    6. End of match if one of the last left, I'll risk a bomb (my bombs tend to blow up anything around me including me)
    7. Repeat
     
  19. Hmm RTDM
    5v5 or more
    Step 1. Be Archer!
    Step 2. Find safe spot, in a tree, under maternally raped body or in grass :3
    Step 3. Kill Knights Below U!
    Step 4. Bomb jumping knights can be fended off - as they come duck in teh grass; then they fly over u find a tree climb it archer stomp the knight.... then if he survives hope he isnt a jab spammer and laggy and find a tree and final shot him.
    Step 5. Tea Bag him/her (knight) till they text rage and try to kick u.... after that just be annoying some more by doing the excact same thing.. go back to step 2 u cheeky bugger ;D ;) :D
