You guys are all relatively experienced players. Any advice for a noob? Not just on team play, but in general. There are some guides out there. Any that you recommend? I am a fairly analytical person. But I seem to just get confused by the whole mess. Help me out!
I understand that it deals alot with the map you're playing on. But I'm looking for more generic (non-map-specific) advice.
Let me tell you what I do now, and that'll give you a starting point for steering me in the right direction:
I try to hold commands that are easy to defend for the (usually small) bonuses they give
I tend to attack ppl that I think are weak, like those regions with only one army on them
I try to never have regions with only one army on them. With two armies, I know the force count will at least be even and I will have an advantage (due to ties)
I try to "divide and conquer", where it doesnt leave me too vulnerable myself.
i allow my "inner" regions to be weak (1 army), as long as I have strong forces surrounding them
And to summarize how that has worked out for me, I think I have lost every game I have played in.
