BC2 League 1st Div Week 3 Tally
So another week of mayhem has come and gone, with 6 teams having played their games this week and a further 2 who have moved their week 3 game into week 4 due a technical issue on the clan servers on Sunday night. No teams were able to join a server and thus having to rush to book servers for the next days ahead to get this game in. All is not lost though, a mere speed wobble on the Bc2 racetrack.
This week the map Laguna Alta was in play. A 3 point map which sees the Russians starting off with a slight advantage being the closest to the A and B flags, with the US having C as their closest flag. This setup usually results in some varied tactics, as there are many paths to each flag from different directions. A loadout of 3 quad bikes and an APC make for an interesting first assault where a team could theoretically spread out and head for each of the flags, with a possible outcap on the first push. Flags C and B have the height advantage on A, so choosing which points you cap is vital.
GRRR played the guys from MyBroadBand (MBB) and took that game with a 2-0 margin which currently leaves GRRR in 3rd position with DAC. The alcohol driven, nicotine crazed gunslingers (ATF) came out blazing to defeat DAC 2-0 with only 7 players on the field, which keeps ATF in the lead in this division thus far with 3 games and 3 wins and DAC, tied with GRRR with 2 wins and a loss each. The Super Serials (SSG) also took a win in their game against the Scounts (SLS) which leaves them in 2nd position behind ATF, vying for the top stop when they face off against ATF later in the week.
Scourge from ATF gave his view on their game “The map choice for this week was Laguna Alta. A Map that a lot of our players don’t like at all. Being one down on DAC we knew it would be a tough game. But we were motivated and changed our strat to work with only 7 guys, and it paid off. We won the first map by ‘n very small margin, DAC Kept putting the pressure on us. The 2nd round was no different, DAC was all over the flags and we struggled to keep up to them. We had a break when we stole their APC, which gave us a good chance to cap two flags. It was a very intense game WP to DAC, From the ATF team we wish you the best of luck for the rest of the league.”
TheVovo from SSG says for their game against SLS that well organised squad work, and a good understanding of the map secured SSG the win on the night. “The practise sessions that we had, left us in good stead to deal with most teams that we could come up against on that map. Thanks to all involved” Says Vovo. Read More…
Slodaz from GRRR has shared with us his indepth perspective of the game, blow by blow with a bit of humour, thanks Slo..
“They say that history is written by the victors and when you combine that with esteemed war veterans like leelo, NiteShade, s3xy_j0nny and Voetsek-Mikey you are in for a tale of carnage, guts and glory. The map is Laguna Alta and we played our opening move to perfection. Squad Alpha moved onto flag A with the APC, spewing high caliber rounds and a guided missile at MyBB armour. A few seconds later the APC went down and we started mopping up the enemy and claiming the flag. Leelo started dropping his anti-tank mines of awesomeness, which proved a vital strategy in this war. In fact, J0nny and Lee were so good at taking the APC down, it ended up spending most of its time cringing in the MyBB base. This resulted in the perfect opportunity to steal it and enhance our forces firepower at the two flags.
MyBB put up a valiant fight, with a strong co-ordinated rocket attack on the APC’s. To be fair, their stolen APC only remained in our hands for a few minutes before fiery mortars of doomage sent it and its driver to the scrap yard. Dead [grrr] squad members were frantically shouting “they are reviving, move in guys…” until the squad leaders called for discipline and we settled into our rhythm.
Lets switch to the second squad led by Mikey, who was busy laying down covering fire and getting their squad into position for a frontal assault on the B Flag. With men positioned on the hill and moving through the green containers, the medics had their hands full keeping their teemies from flat lining. Grenades and tubes filled the air with a symphony of death, pushing their sniper back to the far corner of the map. With bodies strewn across the train wreck, Mikey’s squad moved in to dominate the flag.
MyBB put up a great fight and threw everything they had at us – including a strange white fluffy sheep that wiped out our whole squad on contact – screen shots will be sent to the admin’s for forensic analysis. At the end of the two games an exhausted [grrr] team finished on top with 2 wins. All agreed that we had a fantastic game, which is all the motivation that we need going into our next match with the well oiled =DAC= team.”
NFX and BBH have moved this weeks game to the end of Week 4 due to the connection issues mentioned earlier.
And that pretty much sums it up until next weeks addition. Good luck to all teams!
