Tier 8 Platoon Training followed by Champion TC [Completed]

TS3, Server EU1.

This should be great fun, any volunteers to be platoon commanders welcome! Volunteering is optional but much better than being appointed

Hiya,


I'll try and be there.Sounds like fun

Cheerio

Wow! That is late. I have a bbq then, so I may not be able to join.

Join us if you can Boos B, I made it a bit later hoping people would have finished their BBQ's by then!  

No kids for me Saturday night and it looks like rain. Count me in, ill have an IS-3 at your disposal

A challange! Count me in

I will try to join with IS3. Is it GMT or CET?

Forum time - which looks to be UMT

I'll be there with my IS-3
Unless I get distracted by beer.
Which almost never happens...more than twice a day

I have guest arriving today so I can't be sure if I'll appear, but 22 (for here ) is quite late evening, so maybe I'll be free until then.

Might have to be out tonight so not sure I can make it, but well up for Tier 8 funnsies.

I've got:

IS3
Tiger II
GW Panther
Jg Panther II

I have only T7, but would like to follow the platoon training if possible and spots available.
I will check but for the training an invite is always okay.

Michael

Since it's UMT I won't be able to join, sorry.

IS3 primed & ready!

Quite possibly but it'll only take an hour or less so hopefully we can put the same tactics into practice in that one too.

Hope I ain't late to participate

Thanks for turning up tonight and really sorry about the awful bloody games after, ces't la guerre!

Main advantage that our opponents had in almost every game was a number of KV-1S'es. There's easy conclusion Our firepower <<< Their firepower. That's kinda' sad, that there's practically no other option than picking 7-8 KV's to win. Other tanks at this tier are like "meh..." compared to them

Anyway, thanks for pro-tooning lession, and evening spent together  


PS. Sorry for lack of ability to spell my own nickname  

Yes - good training, thank you.
We definitely need to practise more though.

Thanks for great fun, a "10 sec. close to winning draw match" and a couple of games on the chin.

Im sure we will do better when we get back to more regular company'ing (dont even know if that word exists).

Does not seem to be a bad tactic , as it only took about 15 minutes in the training room can we expect more training with this , so it can become more clear , you could do this any night .

Just to add a note to this thread...

Tecuani, Paulonifo2k13 and mysellf took our KV1's out last night to practise what we had learned in this class.  We rolled together as if first phase of a focus fire wave, granted we had no second phase to support us, but with the 85mm mounted its only 5s until the next round is away.  Any how, this worked very very well, even to the stage where we had good players commenting in chat about how well we worked together..... ok, we still are not perfect, but using the randoms to practise what we where taught in this lesson has really increased our fun and success last night, and we will continue to enjoy these 65-70% WR practice games.  A great benefit of this technique not expanded upon in the lessons is, we died less.   Quite often an enemy tank would just waggle his turret trying to decide which of the 3 KV1's to shoot at , so survival rate increased, so damage output increased (not individually, but as a platoon), so chance of victory increased.....  I cant wait to try this with the KV1S and IS3...

We really must adopt this technique in ALL of our TCs when ever we can.

Thanks again.

OOI, in the following T6 TC's, I said i had sixth sense, and i also died whilst spotting for the KV1S group..... turns out, I DONT have sixth sense on the KV1S....  But I do now  , sorry Vallu

Ah, the old "Do I have 6th sense on this tank ? "....BOOM !...."Guess not". I know it only too well

Im up for practising (spellboard?) with KV1S and IS3 whenever online.
