Groundy's beginners guide to EIRR

Part 1: Smoke (elementary)
*done*


Part 2: Teamwork and co-ordination (elementary)
Bla, bla, bla "communicaton", "timing attacks", "company synergy"...

Part 3: Back-seat commandeering (basic)
Hardware: microphone, voice distorter version 2.37 (or higher)
Key concepts: map-pinging, psychology of a noob, keyboard warfare (optional)

Part 4: Force-multiplication (intermediate)
Hardware: ping <70
Muscle: around 250 APM
Brain (theory):
Three squads of shreck grens blobbing it up and one officer. Get in range of the target and dance two of the squads while supervising the third squad with the officer. Just as the supervised squad fires, switch supervison to one of the loaded dancing shreck squads and fire again. Repeat with the last loaded squad. Make sure all non-supervised squads are on the move at all times for full dodge bonuses. All shrecks need to be fired within 1.5 seconds.

Reference: part 1

Part 5: Force-multiplication (advanced)
Hardware: ping <70
Muscle: around 256 APM
Brain (theory): same as part 4, but time the mortar smoke (see part 1) so that smoke covers your grenies just as the last shreck is fired. Use two mortars spacing the smokes around 20 distance units apart so you can push your blob. For greater pushes three mortars might be necessary (setup time and so on). Time the smoke accordingly.

Reference: part 1 and 4.

Part 6: Force-multiplication (pro)
Hardware: ping <70
Muscle: around 606 APM
Brain (theory): see part 5. Time the mortar smoke to cover your grenies. To add more gren squads to your blob, while sticking to one officer and the time-frame (1.5s) you need to clump up your forces more than the AI nomrally allows; one officer won't have time to travel the distance for supervision switches otherwise. Use two half-tracks blocking movement, thus boxing your blob in. However, getting shot at is risky in this situation. Use two bikes to get behind the target, blocking the victims reversal and forcing turret rotation. Leap-frog the bikes to get dodge bonuses. The second mortar smoke lands in sync with the first mortar on the target vehicle preventing destruction of your bikes.

Reference: part 1, 4 and 5.

Part 7: Force-multiplication (ancient)
Hardware: ping <70, microphone, voice distorter version 2.37 (or higher)
Muscle: around 556 APM
Brain (theory): this is the lazy man's way. Instead of your own grenies, use your noob teammate's grenadier blob. A vetted terror company with inspired assault, zeal (and all other extra toppings) is best. Saying something in the likes of "free vet here!" and spamming the pings usually gets him moving. As the blob moves, and squad members get cut-down, box them in with your half-tracks and execute as depicted in part 6.

Reference: part 1-6

I think we pretty much proved there is no correlation between APM and ability to win a few months ago when everyone posted their replay stats.

I stopped doing these when I realized you cant teach someone how to micro through a video.

All other videos I could make rely on contextual aspects of CoH play, or are how to abuse and break some in-game mechanics which go against the EIRR rules.

Also, i find it incredibly hard to commentate a tactics video while I play it. I tried to do a video on Jeep push, but that failed because of this.

just do simple tactics like. shooting 3 mortar rounds and packing up and replacing. The tactic of waiting till a squad throws the grenade. getting out than getting back in to avoid the damage from the nade.
How to use ATG to snipe enemy ATGS ( By shooting at the ATG first you get increased accuracy and better chance of destorying their ATG rather than your own) simple pro stuff like that

You can teach people how to micro, butother than going mister miyagi on someone you can't actually instruct people on to be better at microing different things at once

Besides, with the mortar you should be queuing up a move command after the barrage, meaning your mortar will fire hte barrrage and then get up and move back to safety without any more attention needed

Maybe do a video on the move to cover-grenade thing

circling bikes with a sniper

blowing up weapons

Atg sniping mortars

blowing up mortar&mg crew while they are moving to stop the weapon from being used

blocking with vehicles

wire and bodies detecting snipers/cloaked units

Fausting throuugh hedges

blocking to sticky

jumping in and out of buildings to shrek tanks etc

the small amount of vids for tactic and strategie are on the one hand like water in the desert in the other hand not easy to find for new players.
