It's Time To Say Goodbye

 Fellow Commanders,

The game formerly known as Walking War Robots is a very different animal these days.  More to the point, so am I.  What used to be a blog about all aspects of our game is now, well, quite dated.  There are posts about the all-around utility of Lancelot and the total domination of dashing robots.  And recently, there are almost no posts at all!

So I think it's time to say goodbye.  I'm planning to tidy up a bit, and then cease the use of this platform.  Before I do that, I will leave a few final posts consisting of ideas that are intended to be universal - no matter what Pixonic does to rape your wallet or mangle the game.

First and foremost, our game remains about territory control.  Even if the beacons are not lit, and you are in the tedious "death match" mode, you are actually fighting over the best parts of the map.  For those who wish to win, the recommendation from the U remains immutable: own those beacons!  In the video below, I've used a group of slippery, fast robots to harass the enemy team so they wind up fighting deep in their own territory.  On any map, flanking maneuvers force your opposition to move, and to change their direction of fire.  This allows your teammates to attack against fewer enemies and reduced firepower - always a good thing!

Thus, we shall add to the basic rules of survival:

• Don't mech out.
• Exploit favorable matchups.
• Play the fastest hangar you can.
• Control territory by any means necessary.

Your humble servant (retired),
Dr. Yat
