i will be online in 3 hours from when i made this post, until an hour after that. for my time zone, this is from 5:00pm to 6:00pm. anyone wanting help on discord can also get on at that time. After a minor technical issue ran a comm game with SAT. It greatly improved our ability to work together and battlefield awareness. We scored the win and had a blast. I highly encourage the rest of the clan to give it a shot.

Hey guys, I'm quite interested in how we can catch each other timewise. Can you please give some details on which time zone you're in and your (local) usual playtime?
Starting with myself, I'm in GMT + 2. Most often I play in the 22:30-23:30 local time and I'll probably use Discord at this time. Sometimes I manage one game 5:45-5:55 (wake up before driving to work), but I'll probably not team up till we get it fast&smooth (as I have to leave house ~5:57 so waiting 5 mins to set the connection means I won't play).

This thread got serious, where are all my statues? Something for you, jazzy...relates to the text below.

Actually,
one more suggestion came to my mind:
What about developing "combo setup routines" in our clan? To explain, every player develops at least maps startup routine, so that you don't waste your time even when playing solo (e.g. look around => is it worth capping side beacon with medium speed bot?).
As a clan, we might as well be aware which strong bot combinations we have at hand and bring it accordingly.
I'll start developing those with my 6-years son, who got accepted to the clan (pilot name Rychlik Mata) and as Sabre pointed out correctly, he's below clan's level. However,we're well paired - same hours, quite close leagues, no need of voice comm. He doesn't have a particularly strong bot yet, so we'll probably start with medium combos.
What I've figured out so far (based on what we have): - Galahad (plasma) + Boa (Thu/Ork): - advatage: - Gal's shield covers both till we reach destination, in case of red burst Boa takes the lead - In case of multi directional attack, Boa will shield one Gal's side, HP pool strong enough - Boa's speed matches Gal with shield - Boa can use cover while reloading Thu/ Ork, shooting Ork from cover - situations: - beacon pushing (decent firepower, decent speed, against shielded bots we have Ork + crossfire - hard to decide if you avoid plasma or Thunder) - Lancelot / Rhino elimination - with proper training, head - on attack would be possible
- Golem (Thu/plasma, rockets even better) + Gareth (plasma): based on the assumption that Golem can shoot over Gareth, will have to try - advantage: - Gary's shield reduces Golem's main brawling weakness - lack of HP - reasonable speed match (Gary with shield) - continuous fire 1 heavy + 2 medium + 2 light weps possible - situations: - beacon pushing (one directional, crossfire is risky) - break in & harass - Golem's firepower will help Gary to break in enemy area, then may split & harass separately
I'm quite curious how this will work, might be lot of fun (particularly for those already a little bit bored by the game, nah?). Now even more viable with voice comm.
Can you figure out some more combos?

Not sure about number of Carnys we have in the clan but there are several Garys. I'll suggest Matej to save a little and fill his Cossack slot with Carnage (nothing against Cossack of course but he tends to keep it for the whole game)

Just had a vision of Yamantau with well done setup...two heavy bots head for central, with Carny some 100 m ahead...Gary takes side then meets with Carny just below the ramp...rush up together and wipe that poor red beacon capper...hold the center until reinforcements arrive...while another Garry sprints towards red's side beacon...supported by midrange from the right bridge.

I have an overabundance of WS points. I hadn't planned on getting a Carnage but could. What is the preferred load out?

Carnage thunders can rack up amazing damage scores ... sometimes. They are so weak to plasma I favored carny as midrange with zues. its a pretty fun bot to play. Its not in my main hanger but I keep it leveled in the background to mix things up. YMMV

Its not in my main hanger but I keep it leveled in the background to mix things up. YMMV For clan, I'd vote for Thunders as preferred. If we coordinate well and somebody takes Gareth with you, weakness to plasma will decrease significantly. As far as our time shift and playhours, I'll should be able to squad with you for some games and I have Gary in the lineup. As for solo play, I'd probably pick midrange. Actually, I'm quite interested in comparison Zeus on Carny vs Zeus on Natasha with Molots. IMO, with Zeus you have to maintain near constant target visibility, so Molots fit to it well (much better than the Trident setup I have now) and you have additional firepower compared to Carny mobility (not sure it helps so much here). Naty is weak against shielded bots, however any bot going after me would expose terribly to the whole battlefield, so it could even become a good trap and thus advantage!

(Android platform) Considering how easy it is to start your own thread, you really should do better. So now you have an active, fun, and fierce forum strike. Another offense within 30 days will give you an active, fun, and fierce 7-day ban. Keep your nose clean for 30 days after that and your record resets. Otherwise, you get a fast-rising permanent ban.

We are a fun group to squad with, and have members all over, so you can usually find a buddy on line.

Hey there War Robots fanatics in Nitro Squad! I'm a 42 year old professional, a husband and father, who is grateful for the existence of War Robots for stress relief and good old-fashioned MechWarrior-style combat! Thanks for letting me join Nitro Squad! I'm looking forward to connecting with you and more importantly, squadding and becoming part of a team! I'm on the East Coast, USA. Looking forward to setting up times to squad, strategize, etc. I can usually be available during weekdays at noon, and at night after 6 PM (again, EST). Weekends are usually fair game as well, at differing times. Just let me know and we'll team up!
