The vityaz is a mid range and from time to time I will bring it out ealier, usually if a boa has just gotten wiped out by a shield bot or if there is a large number of enemies in one place and they can't be rushed with a single bot. If the vityaz comes out after everything else is gone then I'm probably in trouble anyway. I use a mid-range Golem, and I've been bringing it out first on Canyon and Shenzhen. You can really do some damage that way. It's especially fun when you start taking it the Maggeps trying to rush your beacons.

I usually start with a Cossack, then followup with the Taran/Thunder Boa. After that i use the Pinata Patton or RDB Griffin.

Varies depending on 1 or more of the following: - map - mood - what's in the hanger - what are my dailies - platoon or solo - what I know other clanmates will usually drop first
But I generally drop a faster bot to get beacon advantage.

There always seem to be plenty of other people doing mid range and support.

Start off with my Cossack+Tumblr and generally grab two beacons, then try to steal one or two Depending on how the game has progressed I usually use my Patton+Pin to attack some longer ranges Boa+Ecm+Taran for holding beacons or assaulting middle beacon Gepard+Pinatas almost always comes out last unless my team has failed in beacons by my third bot.

Light-Medium-Heavy-Heavy-Medium
e.g. Stalker/gep, Boa, Griffin, Rhino, Carnage
Justification: Lead with a light to get that easy gold from caps, also can never trust allies in solo to do the capping, so do it yourself. Medium follows to solidify central beacon to rack up as much damage as possible and eliminate enemy lights to keep them away from peskily stealing home base. Heavies then come in to take down the enemy in terms of offense, defense and support all around. Then if you've gotten to your fifth bot, it means your team is in trouble mechanically, thus suggesting beacon trouble too. Medium bots are necessary to stay mobile and active to keep the beacons blue and defend yourself too, so finish with preferably a carnage or a heavy-hardpoint medium.
I'm no expert though, I'd say that's my $0.02 but I'm not even level 30 yet so it's probs $0.01.

First-4 Patton with quad 7 Aphids. Next-4 Golem with 7 Trident/CRV/Tulumbas Third-4 Golem with 7 Thunder/Orkan/Piñata Fourth-4 Boa with 7 Thunder/Orkan Last-4 Boa with 7 Thunder/Taran
I almost always go in this order unless I feel that the TOP Golem would be better served than the mid range Golem.

It is always tricky playing solo because you just can't expect that someone will get both side beacons. For a while I was starting with my boa and heading straight for the centre beacon. Because it is still quite slow at lvl 4, starting it later can be a frustrating walk to the front line. But recently I have been starting with a Orkan Rog and racing for centre to either cap and run or (especially on Yam) try and hold centre long enough for support to arrive. Second is usually my aphid gep which works quite well at getting back into action quickly and harassing the slower bots that are usually distracted or engaged by the time I get into position, or can head for a side beacon that has been missed, taken or is under threat. However I generally change my setup regularly as I get a bit bored doing the same thing over and over. It feels like you are trolling this thread... Nobody cares what a Gep/Rog hangar does, we just want them dead. How rude.

Definitely mood... but sometimes I feel I have to breakout the Griffin or march through with Leo. Hydra Fujin is definitely my support bot, stopping rockets and missles and hitting targets behind cover. I always have the option to snipe with my current hangar (treb/gekko Natasha). Finally my Carnage handles beacon running and Trident support. Lv9 weapons on everything 500k avg, fighting in top tier.

Recently I've been doing "potato farming" with some fellow guildies: Zenit schultze, another zenit schultze, thunder schultze, gekko/aphid gepard
We're doing these for fun, none of that was for serious farming
Also, before anyone says that zenits don't work, this says otherwise (pat attention to the top right corner where it shows who meched who

So I've realized the err of my ways and I promise make it perfectly clear from now on when I'm trying to be funny, so that it doesn't lead to unnecessary animosities.
I'll be using lots more emojies. I think that's where it all went wrong.
My apologies to rocketgirl.

I think that's where it all went wrong. My apologies to rocketgirl. It's just ironic that you picked on somebody who makes it a point NOT to have too many Rogs and Geps in her hangar. Not to mention, last I checked, she doesn't even run a Mag Gep.

I usually start with an Orkan, Thunder Lance then follow with my Targan, Thunder Lance to keep the pressure up on the most contested beacon. Depending on how the battle is going will either follow up with a light for capping either Gareth or Cossack depending on which mech im not upgrading or wanting to play.
I then follow up with med's or heavy knife fighters again depending on what I feel like playing with (Boa, Galahad, Rog or Natash, Leo).
It really all comes down to what I feel like running for that battle as I usually swap stuff out every few fights.

First, Thunder/schutze. Cap a few then kill a few Natashas and griffins. Really climbing up on them and hammering away is the highlight of my day. Second, mag/gep. Sorry, I had a leftover iTunes giftcard and bought one in the beginning. Third, lately the least, Patton quad spirals. Really cleans up the field and helps on the larger battlefields. I pull out out a thunder/piñata vityaz in the end if needed. Saving for a fifth slot. I have stalker and a few other bots I won that I'm still trying to figure out. If they are not fun, then another thunder/schutze on the way!

HostingMy Leo usually goes first. In small maps, it holds side beacons, mainly killing gepards and stalkers and keep an eye on opponents trying to get center. On larger maps, it guns straight for center or one neglected enemy side beacon forcing them to have to address the issue and face me. After that, it's a matter of what is on board. Usually missiles if they have physical shields. I tend to leave my Gepard for last since its fire power and health aren't that stellar. Also, it sometimes help for last minute caps.

Mag Gep in low silver is the bot i want to see against when i play, every bot in my hangarcan take it down in few shots still runnin when capturing. It seems the best choice to clubbing right, but there are too much lineups to block it in 30 seconds, make those magGeps your best target in red squad, i use theese: - Gepard with Pins 12/12/10 (similar to 30k damages every 10 seconds from 500m, no magnums can hit it) - Golem with Thunder/Taran/Magnum 9/9/9 (more health, same distance, but 3 lights are basically less effective than a light, a medium and a heavy weapon) - Vityaz with Zeus 8 and Pins 8/8 (it can lock on geps from 600m with zeus, and make splash damages when it goes undercover with pins) - Griffin with RDB line with 2xPins 5/5 and Tulumbas 5/5 (from 500m it can shot it down with 2nd round, around 30 seconds to kill it remaining full hp) - Boa with Taran 9 and Thunder 9 (more health, same distance, but higher dps and dpm, lv9 Thunder can easily destroys Gepard health with few shots, and you have also a taran, if you need you can distance magnums shooting with Thunder from 350m to 500m) i run an hangar of magnum geps 12/12/10 in low silver, but every bot i have tried in this metagame ruins Magnum Geps, is the less dangerous lineup right now in my opinion. i hope you all use all you magnum geps and run like crazy in battleground center, beacause i like mostly moving targets

LOW SILVER TIER FARMING - i use to begin with: -1st: Crv Pin 12/12/10 Lv1 Gepard, in order to slow down enemy squad beaconers, cossacks, gepards, stalkers and also gareths, thoose pins can easily take every lights down in 20 seconds (almost 60.000 damages in 20 seconds) --2nd: Lv1 Gepard with Aphids 10/10/8 (Raising them up to 12) just to deals damages archering when i'm covered ---3rd: first medium bot - Lv4 Boa with (lv9)Thunder and (lv9)Taran, the hunt begins, i shot only when near 350-300m, with 92.000 health i can defend and attack any beacon, the worst enemy are rappresented by long distances lineup, bu 92k hp, it's enough to make good damages with 2 of most effective weapons of the game. ----4th: second medium bot - Lv4 Golem with (lv9)Thunder, (lv9)Taran and (lv9)Magnum, less health but more dps with another weapon, Golem design permits good cornershots, even with a Heavy combined with a Light that constantly fire ----4th: second medium bot - Lv4 Vityaz with (lv9)Thunder and (lv9)(lv9)Magnums, more potential than a magnum gepard, good health, using it as 4th bot, vityaz speed can reach an enemy beacon when shooting defensor on short range -----5th: Lv1 Gepard with 12/12/10 Pinata, can shot down last red members without any inconvenience, when you are in a dominant scenario. -----5th: first Heavy bot:Lv6 Griffin/Leo/Natasha with mele fighting mode, Magnums, Tarans, and Thunders mixed as you prefer, just to rush on last red bots with higher dps in the last 2-3minutes of the game

Changed my order recently. All bots are Destriers but the order if I have a destroy bots Au mission is plasma plasma, pinata, crv, molot. Otherwise it is Plasma (quick advantage), CRV (support), pinata (bot hunting), molot and plasma last for emergencies.
