Out of curiousity, who here is Autobot, and who here is Decepticon?

I am a Decepticon.

Decepticon here as well. GO BLUE! I had no real reason to pick them, just sounded cooler, and I remember them being the "bad guys" from the show i used to watch as a kid. (great bad guy name too, very creative... "Decepticion". They don't sound very deceiving, do they?)

I've seemed to have cooperated or fought guys from SDN in previous missions/arenas about 4 or 5 times.

Decepticon + 1

Joined the Decepticons 'cause I wanted to form a villian group based on a TV show.

Good strafing, bad strafing.

Post by **Ghost Rider** » 2003-07-30 11:52am

Ah Strafing...if only I grabbed on of my eariler Arena's(I have one up already about the joys of mass strafing)

That and Ram(and Ram can take off chunks so far my best is 26% in one hit)

And yes I'm a decep...probably aside from some weirdo glitches one of the higher ranked of the SDN group

(actually before the bug I was number 6 with Skylight...number 23 with Starstorm.)

I'm a Decep as well.

Have a very nice day.

Actually I'm thinking Crayz and Gandalf are the only Autobots here.

The "Clan" on the menu is gone...hope it pops out with some good functions soon.

Nah, I'm an Autobot, too, though I haven't been playing as much lately. My top character has only 14K experience, and I'm reluctant to crank him up to level one.

Heh heh heh. R2 D2 and Tractor Beam are kicking much ass.

Ah oops forgot ZShade(I've actually faced him and Crayz on the arena...and won

)

And yeah I agree with Zshade of leveling...get your tactics up then stats.

But for killing...check out the difference of power done for a couple strafes(weapons seem to help at the very least)

It happens.

On the flip side, a few days ago, all four of my active bots took on Mitthrawnuruodos I-IV and won. Granted, I had a XP advantage, but the luck factor in this game is stupidly high sometimes.

I actually had two characters at Lvl 1. I just reset their stats and redistributed thier points. I was getting bitchslapped a wee-bit too often, and I want more points in Avoid, especially for missions.

Strafe is stupid good. One of my characters was dropped in three actions. One Strafe, one Diffraction Sword hit, a second Strafe, and he was out. Ram is almost as fun.

Post by **Ghost Rider** » 2003-07-30 06:24pm

LOL...yeah Ram is fun.

For me I raised my tactics to 4 before leveling...I wanted them to reap as much as possible before I go higher.

So far Ram and Strafe have served well...but amazingly Avoid gives massive points if you do it around 4-5 times in a mission.

ZShade · Post by **ZShade** » 2003-07-30 06:25pm

Oh, and I just added SDN to my team name, for easy identification.

Yeah, I read that in one of your earlier posts. It's why I reset my top guy and put him at Skill 3 and Avoid 3. Future points are going to Avoid.

Sriad · Post by **Sriad** » 2003-07-30 06:36pm

I'm feeling a little bit burned out on HMW; mostly my guys do only one or two missions a day now. This being the case, I'd like to open up the possibility of sharing control of my team with another SD.net-er (Decepticon, of course) who plays more regularly than I.

Anyone who's interested in taking control of Sriad's Irregulars should feel free to PM me.

Level 4 courage, meaning that he attacks more frequently...

I know... I'm gonna start upping my courage...

EDIT: http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar ... n_id=21554

Hah, I got more EXP than even the Lvl 1 guys! Go Strafe!

Grand Moff Yenchin · Post by **Grand Moff Yenchin** » 2003-07-31 12:13pm

Overran by swords.

BTW...the basic swords are all sold out.

Edit: bad grammar

Hehe, that's cause I bought like 10 when I was bored

Exonerate · Post by **Exonerate** » 2003-07-31 12:51pm

I just upped another level of strafe. MUWHAHAHA.

Don't know why they aren't more common, but guns rock. Fairly good damage, and firing rate.

That was you??!?!? I don't even look at the battles anymore, I just glance to see won/lost, and then I throw the other TFs in there. Rarely have I lost against all four battles, but it DOES happen.

My TFs:

Team1
Mitthrawnuruodo I
Mitthrawnuruodo II
Mitthrawnuruodo III
Mitthrawnuruodo IV

Team2
Super Thing
Uber-Pea
Colussus
Mr. Guy

You know, Strafe is really unbalancing. Ram is available to both semis and tanks, and repair is available to both bulldozers and ambulances. But strafe? Only weapons, and both weapons are on the Decepticon side.

Of course, that's not to say that anything's perfect. But it would be nice to have an Autobot tactic that at least slightly balanced it out...
