Hey you should do a series of this type of matchs. I find it vere helpful to understand better the game and also watch something new. Great video as usual.

[lrdnoskillz]

This was super useful! I didn't know that by doubling up squads they could use the AT and MG at once. I was tripling up a lot of my squads, but now I've dropped most of them down to pairs and they're working better! Also, really helped me understand LOS a little better.

Thanks for uploading more Wargame content, Stealth. I watch every one of your Wargame videos

[Alex-qfjs]

This was quite instructive for a new player thank you.

[hansvonpoopinheim]

Did you add where you never return your supply trucks to the FOB, grinds my gears for years stealth. Hope the kiddo is doing well!

this is the hardest RTS i have ever played, but the most entertaining

Heli CV can be useful in some rare occasions to contest a zone during a push and prevent enemy spawn... but not in your home base

[homefront]

I get the dislike for CV Helis. But they do have two uses. One of them being the fast mobility and ability to go over tough terrain. But this is usually best done with a Inf CV in a helicopter. Though the CV heli does give a quicker evac time. So it's kind of iffy with this.

But the reason I use them a lot. Mostly in tactical games. Is cause of those optics. If you're playing with teammates and your team has plenty of CV's, then I will often use the CV as a recon heli. Since I am forced to have a CV, might as well get a free recon heli.

This one might be more situational as well. But Napalm is your friend. It can work as a direct bombing source. But I often like to use Napalm to block off enemies. Like napalming a road where light armored vehicles will likely go at the start, or to block off advancing enemy infantry. I have manage to get kills quite often by people not expecting it.

Depending if you like to use arty. But I recommend having your arty fairly close to the frontlines. Increasing the accuracy and the shell travel time is reduced considerably. Just remember to keep an eye on your situation and have a supply heli or truck to ferry supplies from the FOB to the artillery.

I don't use it too much. But I also highly recommend that if you use Artillery, then make sure if as close to the frontlines as the firing arc will allow. MLRS fired from the base tends to be nothing more then a way to stun the enemy or maybe get lucky and get some kills. But the true value is being close to the frontlines. A simple 65pt Russian HE MLRS can decimate most things. You are pretty accurate at a range of like 3800m. I like to use double stacks at least. And I have managed to kill Super-heavies fairly easy. They cant do much since they get stunned constantly, but once you fire them make sure to move the trucks as fast as possible.

Please don't be the one dude in 10v10s who sits in the back of the map firing MLRS and barely scoring any kills in the game. Also don't fire near your FOB.

[josephahner]

Heli cv can be useful in extremely niche circumstances. I once used one in a 10v10, and it survived in a zone where the arty spam was so bad a 3 top armor tank cv couldn't even survive. I stuck it behind a 1k meter forest, and they bombarded the forest because that was where the last three were. Forest was too thick for recon to spot through, I put it in the deck just for shits and giggles, but it ended up saving our asses. Flares were popping up all over the zone, are you nuts, fuckin noob etc. 5 minutes after it landed, I popped one that read "you were saying?" It was great. Never used helo cv again after that.
