Hi team,
i've been recently playing ETW online and its great. I had a nice battle with the help of an ally called Bushranger and me last night.
together we fought the H8 Klan. playing UP, they rushed my ally from the moment the battle started with so many line infantry and cav (H8 don't hold back as they known for but this was the exception) They had long range skirmishers/riflemen too tucked away behind their line infantry. They also threaten us not to drop or quit the game if we were losing since it was ranked game as well.
Turns out my Frenchmen and my British counterpart won the battle after the UP realized that my 3 chevron (in tree cover) maison du roi, royal eccosais and vieux rapidly picked off their line infantry from their flank as they were teaming up on my ally which he did well to stand his ground. My cav I sacrificed early on to distract them to kill as many skirms as i could and weaken and tire their line infantry.
They suddenly realized that when i was flanking the UP's they held back and retreated slightly up hill while i was chasing and picked off more of their line men. We eventually created this combined massive infantry line that spanned 3 quaters of the map line against their retreating forces. After about 15 mins into the battle we played a cat and mouse game of their remaining skirms and riflemen (very annoying) but we eventually won.
it was a good game, they thanked us for not quitting and i was surprised they followed their own rules.
That was the only battle got my heart racing, it was intense so i expect some more aussies here in ETW heaven to be online tonight!
Any naval fighters here? i've fought 2 naval battles (ranked) and won. I also fought in a fun naval scenario, i can't remember the name of the scenario but its the one where you are GB and you fight 2 french opponents. I used the wind constantly and i survived having my Heavy First in good condition and never being boarded.
I've also got some replays of my battles, i wish i could share, i might put them on youtube.
Add me as a friend, i'd like more players to be constantly available since the Aus regions have 3-4 games every night which are mostly full so please play.
Thanks
