Title: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: 3rdCondor on March 22, 2010, 01:24:50 pm This is where you can post your favorite starting columns. Post anything you want to post: most memorable, stupidest, coolest, etc.
I saw someone call this in and I'm somewhat curious to try it: 2 pios + goliaths + flamethrowers, 1 p4, 1 pak, 1 ht I thought it was cool and I don't see columns like that every day in EIR.

3 x fully upgraded staghound :D Absolutely ripped everything apart unless they started with a P4. Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: Lai on March 22, 2010, 01:32:20 pm On axis attack, I once started with 5 unupgraded volks and ran in on Abbeville's main road. My plan was to do it Torjado style (infantry blob), little would I know how successful/lucky it would be. By the time my axis buddies arrived (they deployed bottom east, I top east) 2 HMGs, a mortar, an AT-gun and sniper plus a couple engineers were dead or routed. I had already had time to be strafing and bombing runned once each. My mates could march in without resistance.

Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: Malevolence on March 22, 2010, 03:20:09 pm A superblitz/barrels tiger and two units of assault volks followed on by five units of assault volks from the second player, maybe half of the volks had faust.
Support weapons? Dead. Infantry blob? Dead. Enemy tanks? Dead. Counter to all enemy units blob gogo... Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: LeoPhone on March 22, 2010, 03:42:21 pm 12 CCTs

Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: bbsmith on March 22, 2010, 05:17:31 pm 2 Infantry HTs
2 Pioneers with Flamers, Mines, Bunkers, Goliaths, and Medkits. 1 Dual Shreck Stormtrooper with Bundled and Medkit. 1 Stug with MG and Skirts (Pre-repair Rework) Never lost a single R+ starting battle. Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: SnoOp on March 22, 2010, 05:33:00 pm 2 hts with 1 assualt gren in both
1 atht with tb and ff 2 50mm ht = RAPE SOME FACE. Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: gamesguy2 on March 22, 2010, 08:27:29 pm 2x Flammewerfer HTs
1x HT with 2x dual shrek storms inside 1x Volkswagon Scout with the volkswagon, flank ATG and charge in. I've never had anyone start with enough infantry AT that can deal with one HT suppressing and two HT flaming them to death if you flank their ATG. Against tanks, block with HT and kill with storms. Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: bayarea510 on March 22, 2010, 09:35:11 pm 4 muni ht with goliaths, mines ,and tellers

Needs more assault volks with conviction. Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: fallensoldier7 on March 23, 2010, 12:04:52 am Getting pwned by Cball's 7 HTs and an ATG. My infantry was eaten up, pak flanked, and PIV was constantly blocked by the HTs as the ATG took shots at it. Thoroughly embarrassing...
Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: Mysthalin on March 23, 2010, 12:15:21 am Panzer IV + 2x Double Shrek storms aboard an HT.
One of the best tanks in the game and the best AT in the game, combined. In one starting callin. It made me feel good.

One of the best tanks in the game and the best AT in the game, combined. In one starting callin. It made me feel good. With blitz I do something similar - your 4 schrecks is too much for me tho. This is my favorite start call-in, all round excellentness, been using it for a long time now. P4 - Repair, MG, Skirts Storm - 1xMP44, MedKit, Bundle (get 2 Bundle nades at vet 2) - cloak & scout all the time, when you attack, throw bundle, heal and rape with mp44 = you win without loosing any units most of the time. Storm - 2xSchrecks, Medkit HT with Repair - keep schreck storms in HT at all times unless I need them, stay inside HT for protection, only unload if needed, cap sectors, use HT to block vehicles, use MGs on it for anti inf, get in HT during schreck reload, etc. If HT doesnt work out for you, try using a bike instead for better scouting, works really good aswell. Downside is the lack of mobility which I prefer, unless you have some kind of sprint bonus from the doctrine unlock, but even then I prefer the HT, 2x schrecks is pretty high risk, cant afford to loose them so having a HT for protection is really usefull. Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: shockcoil on March 23, 2010, 05:21:20 am Some guy pulled 4 bren carriers with 4 commando piats on me. Needless to say I'm in love. My personal favourites though:
For PE: Hetzer IHT with assault gren IHT with shreck For Wehr: P4 HT with 2xflamer, 1 volk with assault nades And of course the classic 4/5 AB drop never gets old :D Title: Re: Post your favorite or most memorable starting columns Post by: winisez on March 23, 2010, 07:48:14 am 2xIST.
