Post the pros and cons of commanders, either you or somebody else. Pros and Cons of me BigTeef Pro's Loud and Vocal Tactician Occasionally funny Friendly Says what hes doing at all times Sense of humor Tasteful Good building placements Symmetrical Attention to Detail Reminds people about refineries Reminds people about tickets Tells people on how to effectively drive tanks Knows how to boomtank without getting stuck Boops people if they drive out too far Cons American Terrible driver Likes to swim Loud and Vocal Hes only funny when hes getting raped Drug addict Compulsively lies about being a Drug addict Lunatic Most likely a rapist Occasionally reads the chat Cant remember anything Never knows what hes doing To many rape jokes To many rape jokes ending with BigTeef Has a nervous breakdowns when hes loosing and crawls into a fetal position. Masturbates into the microphone Jewish Poor Poor Jew No longer Jewish but says he is due to obligations
Yobbo/Mashav Pro's Are invincible Place buildings fast Always look for ninjas Excellent boomtankers 100 % reliable Read text chat all the time Don't need a mic to communicate well Con's Joining their team automatically counts as stacks They're better off on the ground than in the CV
Hobbes. Pros: makes dull games interesting, does the best research, is a baws, runs people over and calls them nubs, does shit nobody expects, not even himself. Cons: by the time you get to the front he has already run over the enemy team and built a forward base so there is nothing left to do.
[From 2009] Sonecha: Pros: Builds forward base for you Makes giant thought out turtle bases Provides targets Best boomtanker in the game Knows everything about the research tree Makes the best bases (no-one seems to think about building placement nowadays, you all suck) Cons: Recycles everything or locks the VF if the team pisses him off Will get out to punch the enemy comm in the face with no support or spawn point
Sonecha was the best boomtanker Empires had by a huge margin, and I still rate him as the best player to play the game. I miss him more every day.
Grantrithor Pros I keep my cool as long as everything is working properly(lol greatest superpower ever). I space turrets out in curving shapes. I never use walls (I let engies decide it for themselves) I give individual players unique targets, and I usually target those who are in a vantage point, not the closest enemy. Cons I lose my cool when things aren't working properly. Run on sentences. I don't like managing people.
Me Pros If my team listens to me I usually win 5+ years of commanding experience I micromanage my players, drop armories and walls when they need them I listen to players who find themselves in an advantageous position and help them execute their plan I've got the best spots for turrets memorized for loads of maps, and I use walls tactically to make it easier for my team to push If I know players' skills on my team, I'll request them specifically for a certain task. Smart people will do this task because they trust my expertise Cons If my team contains OMGSUPERVETS that just do stuff on their own I usually lose Rusty on research Don't know a lot of the current players so I'll have problems picking the right people for the right job EDIT: Haha this all reminds me of the first versions of Empires, no one wanted to command because you'd crash all the time. Me and dizzyone were once comming against each other and half of our job was to re-enter the game as quickly as possible after we crashed. I remember a particular game on Isle where both of us crashed about 10 times in a single round, that was tense as fuck
Pros: I can make really nice dick drawings with walls Cons: I get caught off guard boomtanking every once in a while.
BloodRaven Pros: Jeep All or nothing tactics Good reaction time Loves to drop armories OCD with base building Believes artillery is a myth Not Jewish Cons: Thinks the CV is a Jeep Mines All or nothing tactics Cant plan ahead spends too much time building scout habitats Believes artillery is a myth
Parawesome: Pro's Is really loud and really vocal. Knows all the maps. Actually plays the game. Likes to insult people. Knows the playing community. Gives targets based on what the people can see and the opposing team cover. Talks about all sorts of random shit you'd do in spec. Places armories+ Wallz + turrets. Goes to build bases himself instead of sit in the fucking base all day long. Says nigger all the time. Places multiple raxes. Uses cv as a boomtank and covertank. Likes to spill food in front of his desktop. Knows how to use his absolute building area. Has pug and scrim commanding experience. Like to troll people with wallz ( HELLO CANDLES REF REF REF REF REF ) Cons Might be really retarded. Might be really loud and really really vocal. Insults people no matter what, except nihia cause nihia is great. Says nigger all the time. Likes to sing. Can't sing. Facebook addicted ------> using steam overlay tad too much. Has a shit mic ( or atleast now I do ) Likes to eat food in front ofhis desktop :/ Losing cv to circumstances that are not in my hands Knows when game is lost. Fucking make errbody hate me.
So far all I've learnt from this thread is that Paradox and BigTeef love themselves a bit too much and think they're hilarious.
