New tactics - Idea's / Suggestions b4 I start :)

Right lads,

In my role to turn us into a mean lean fighting machine, I’ll be doing a set of tactics over the next few weeks with screenshots and overviews.

These will be named “Tactic-Fantastic – De_xxxx” :)

What I need to know is, are there any preference for the first map that I do? The list of maps I have are (excluding D2 as we’ve got that pretty much covered).

- Clan Mill

- Cbble

- Inferno

- Prodigy

- Aztec

- Train

- Nuke

Each tactics thread should be a sticky and locked for comments really. It just keeps them clean and any discussion can take place elsewhere or on TS.

I was thinking that each thread could contain CT positions, T positions, basic rotation (more advanced will need to be practiced in PCW’s) and nade / FB / smoke positioning.

It’ll take some time to put them together, but I’d like some feedback on the idea? I’m aware that sometimes it’s easy to put way too much information into these types of tactics threads, so I’m wondering if a basic overview would benefit more and then more complex stuff to be done in PCWs?

I’m just aware that one some maps, we’ve really not played them at all, so in these instances, just covering the basics like CT positions and T normal or rushes would be enough. For something like D2 where we know that, then I could go into more detail about smoke and FB tactics.

However I don’t want information overload and want these easy to read. Perhaps one answer would be to have something in this format:

Map overview – Brief map description (Is it CT or T bias etc).

CT Positions – 2D picture of map with CT positions drawn on colour-coded. Underneath a description of each position and where this person rotates to (e.g. If A attacked, this player rotates through spawn to B, etc). An eco tactic will also be shown in pictorial format.



T Positions
– Same picture as above but showing a normal tactic T position. Underneath the same description of where to attack but instead of rotations, this will cover FB / Smoke placements by each person. Additionally, rush tactics will be shown in diagrams also along with a pistol tactic.

Let me know what you think!
 
Sounds good to me mate. My prefs would be Train, Nuke, Inferno. We are in dire need of some decent tactics and good flashpoints etc on the most maps :worship:
 
Train/mill, nuke/inferno, cbble, aztec,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,prodigy (if you get me)

I quite like nuke at the moment though....
 
sounds reli good mate, i dont reli have any map preferances as at some point were guna need to kno them all
 
Guys,

I've started preparing the material I need to put these tactics together, but I think ideally we need to focus on our next LOG match. As the map is unconfirmed (yet I have heard that it could be Fire), we should start preparation for this.

So.....

- Is there anyway we can confirm with the LOG admins what the next map is, or is it meant to be a surprise?

- From looking down the list of maps played so far, there is no D2, so I'm assuming that this will be one on the maps to be played (probably the final map). However, I am still trying to work out what other maps they might throw at us.

It took us a good week to prepare for Nuke and after the match against XT I felt that the work we'd done showed. We were never really in any danger of losing the game and controlled it well. The bottom line is that we can do that on ANY map provided we take the time to practice it with proper tactics.

So if any of you guys can find out firstly when the next LOG match will be (the final was actually due to start this week so they are behind!) and also what the map is!

We might find that the map is undisclosed as to keep all the teams on their toes (oooh that rhymed haha). However, because we don't know what it is, that is why I'm holding off getting stuck into a map yet because I'd rather prepare for LOG first.

Final thing, a couple of my old clan friends (Skank and Nads - they're brothers) have said they are interested in playing some games in our team. I can vouch for both of them and I've been playing in teams with Skank since I was on a 56k modem in CS 1.1 :)

However Skank's PC is shafted atm cos the delivery men dropped it :eek: and his brother is just fixing his PC. Therefore it'll a few weeks before they're available. Now I don't want to rip our team apart by bringing new people in, but what they will offer us is backup when we need it if we're short on players.

Additionally they are both very experienced players and know all of my tactics, so will literally slot straight in. Anyway, it should bolster our team giving us a bit more flexibility and also allow us to take on a few more leagues + cups.

Cheers lads!
 
Sorry last thing to add, I think we have a real chance of winning LOG as long as we prepare properly. We're the only team to in the whole league (not just ours) that are unbeaten, plus I know that if we prepare properly, we'll take our first award as a team!

Lets do it!!
 
sounds gd to me ins, what i would like to do tho is sort out a perminant first 6, taking into account what people will be doing in the near future, i.e. uni, moving house etc etc, so we can build a base and go from there

I was just thinking that.

After talking to Jiffz the other night it seems like there is no definitive list of people in the first team. I think the last match we had brought some stuff up aswell.
 
in the second team im prety sure jiffz and ham have got a team of 6-7 there happy with so i think ur teams sorted personel wise eq, and also as far as i kno the 1st team r happy with the way were playing atm, i think jiffz was sayin the 2nds were a tad out of practice

I thought you wanted to recruit 1 more player?

so were all agreed that the A team should maybe recruit 1 more player

As far as I know the B-Team have only played 1 night this week and that wasn't even the full team. :confused:
 
equk try and round up the 2nd team if u want to play matches, bug them to get their asses on ts, thats what I do :P Or post nights to play.

Exactly what I was going to say there :)

Ins - with regards to Nads + Skank. I'm sure everyone in the 1st team feels that they want the core 5/6 to play the games. But I know that Skank + Nads are awesome players and would be nice super-subs :). I have no idea how that works with the LoG roster though...
 
LoG are fairly leaniant with subs i think. I expect the other leading teams have altered their lineup since the start.

I'm back in action as well now. Got my headset and getting back into the swing of things quite nicely :) That's great news about Nads and Skank INS, both of them would make a very welcome addition to the lineup.

What's the current Elite team lineup? considering several players will be disappearing with Uni soon

We are playing either UK^Unit or SD:CSS.

IMO the log team shouldn't have much trouble with these guys based on how they play on pubs. But we'll wait n see:).

Edit: Also some guy has predicted us too be out in the 1/4s, and topgooner rekons out in 1/2s. Lets prove em wrong fellas:D.

Yeah but I'm going in late September so I've still got plenty of gaming left in me :)
 
we play 2nd place of group four, which as it stands, WILL be UKUnit / cC (same team). If NA drop out, cC will place 1st in group 4 and we will play SD:CSS. So, without seeming mean, I hope NA have problems and have to drop out lol
