    There are 2 capturable boats.
    You can throw grenades from one boat to the other one at maximum range.

    There are 3 visible refineries from one of the boats, and vice versa from the other.

    If you are a gren and have a tendency to live longer than a few seconds, you can snipe the refineries using your mortar.

    It's even more awesome when you got an engineer buddy and he puts a level 3 up there to protect you.

    You know what? Something was nagging me for awhile and I realized what it was. When I go forward and clear out something, no one ever follows up on that. It happens in every game that's not empires, but I feel it a bit more in empires for some reason. I guess that is one of those things where I use the mic, but I don't like bossing people around.

    Are you talking about when you destroy something, and leave and find out it's back and you need to come back to that spot and destroy it?

    Lazybum, you'll stop being bad at this game when you can wrap things up by yourself.

    I report everything im doing, I find it better when information is constantly conveyed we have a better handle on things.

    I try to do the same thing when im a com, and ask my team whats going on so I know whats happening, and by doing so im convincing people to communicate to me and to each-other.

    Sorry Reznov, let me know when you need me to hold your hand and do the job for you.

    I am sure there is a very good reason for your teammates to not drop a camera.

    I am a majestic sensitive swan.

    Hey now, even you can't clear a rax and destroy it yourself with 4 people constantly spawning in it. You can either destroy the building or kill the people, I chose to rush around as scout sabbing their stuff and shoot them. Admittedly I couldn't finish that sab timer more than once, but I did keep clearing out most of the infantry before taking one too many bullets.

    And yes teef, that is also annoying, but for somewhat different reasons.

    A rax with 4 people spawning? That's an easy scenario.

    For maps like Crossroads, I'd even intentionally NOT take down your rax, you can burn tickets for all you like, easy gg.

    I can keep reviving & dropping ammo box & spamming nades until the rax is down.
    I can come back with UGL APC & Bio ML medium tank.
    I can just grab other parts of the map.
    ...etc

    When you are more experienced, you'll learn to "play around".
    Protip: Engineer is the best class if you want to hard-carry a shit team, because you can literally do anything as an Engineer.

    Ok, I am sorry I made the assumption that the grens and engineers would advance with some walls and mortar the rax. My bad.

    I'm sorry but that line of thinking is just wrong. Cameras do not give you constant information and if the enemy comm is giving targets then you are putting your own team at a disadvantage.

    Do you know what a joke is?
    Because that was handcrafted to piss off reznub.
    (It somewhat worked, he was cussing for targets and ranted about it for a few minutes when I last played with him.)

    I went from on vacation to taking care of a friend's pets. Sadly it'll be like this for the next year or so and I need to combat how I will schedule my time first before I start hosting events. Chances are I'm done with Empires for a while after today's horrendous games.
