Greetings from Switerland, this is a request for help in this strategic game. As you can see, i play this game for about 4 days (54 games, 17/53 mp 1vs1 strategic map). This means, i lost 2/3 of all my games *cough*. Is it possible to find a serious game instructor or a clan, where i can climb up in knowledge? I really want to know ALL of your secrets *gg* or just a few for the beginning ;) Thanks for reading, Em.

make a game with me.
i'll be glad to give you some of my secrets :)

Some good clans for you might be Warlighter, REGL and/or 101

From what I've heard Pulsey (Gladiator Maximus Jayus) is an acceptable instructor, but you might realize he can be a bit of an ass

damn, Aranka, the 1v1 Strat legend, only rates me as unacceptable. :'(

Don't fret! I can be a beast (therefore i cultivated long fingernails ;) ). How can i get contact to those clans?

aranka left relite?

posting a female picture in a mostly male dominated (for this purpose aranka counts as a male) will get you much help, but most likely few will be thinking about the game

damn, i thought this was going to be the emma who was always on tournament chat two years ago.

relite changed their name to gg. actually astrid was a little slow on that one. also, they beat wm 14-3.

@Emma, find a player with the clan tag which is generally in their name, but can also be in their tagline

101 - {101st}
Warlighter - {Warlighter}
REGL - [REGL]

Then add them to your invite list (by going to their profile) and invite them to a game. You don't have to play that particular game, they'll probably set up their own template with you, but you can talk to them through the public chat section. Generally they'll send you to a recruiter and s/he will set up a game (close to Strat 1v1) to see how you play and then determine your rank within the clan. Clans are good for learning the basics to the game, getting a lot of tips and a ton of practice.

btw, 54 games in roughly 4 days? :O

@all the spammers, who talk about offtopic: make a thread on your own

@orchid posting a female picture in a mostly male dominated (for this purpose aranka counts as a male) will get you much help, but most likely few will be thinking about the game Are you afraid of young women or why do you react like this? If someone starts to flirt, i can decide if it is worth it or not ;) This is not an online dating service.

@H. Knauff Thanks :)

Above is the link to the Tutoring (Noobschool) thread.

This is not an online dating service.

most players havent arrived at that conclusion yet

this thread is now about cuckoo clocks

Watch out Orchid, she's a tough one, I take it she's from the German part of Switzerland :D

Hauptmann, after seeing me you would still recommend someone to join {101st}? (Well, Aranka recommended it, but you didn't refute it.)

Honestly, the best way to improve right now would be to go to the Noob School thread that Ska2D2 posted, rather than joining a clan at this point. I would only suggest joining a clan after you've learned a bit from being tutored, but this is just my two cents.

Suggesting the 101st puzzles me Aranka/Hauptmann.
Do u really think a beginner player would be let into our clan, do you think we're that bad, plus I must admit we're not really a learning clan. I'm happy to give a few beginner tutor games, but not a clan yet. One of our requirements is 200 games.

There are two nice guys who help me, Orchid and Maximus. I didn't know, that i have to meet requirements to join a clan. Thanks to Ska for the link, i didn't see it before.

Basically you didn't need any requirement to join a clan. Clans are just bunch of peoples sticking together and giving themselves some name (usually putting that name before or after name), sometimes feeling good enough to made some requirements for new members.

In warlight no official clan system exists so far.

You even can found your own clan.

@Linlin: Charisma beats skills in many things and your stats are fine, maybe I just got lucky that one game? And maybe that game with Miyagi was just you having a bad day or something. :D I didn't refute it because, despite what Aranka may have been implying by suggesting those three to a new player, I think they are active presences on the forum and Warlight in general, that allow well-rounded and professional players (instead of just those with 90%+ on their stats, no clans in particular being implied there *cough* >.>)

@Apollo: I'm sorry you took it that way. I'm well aware that {101st} has requirements that need to be met before being allowed to join. Also, I wouldn't have taken the time to suggest a "bad clan" to anyone and I assumed that if she were to attempt to apply to a clan (your clan or any other) she could be eingearbeitet...(umm something like "broken in") and trained until she met the requirements. Plus, she had 50+ games in 4 days, how long would it take her to get to 200. She has a 1/3 victory rate, so by game 200 she could easily be winning at least half her games, theoretically ;)

I've heard from some players that a lot of tutoring they received was from within clans and some players learn best by being thrown into tough games instead of working from a beginner level upwards. There's a specific name for that learning style, but it escapes my mind for the moment...
