Or... you posted a theory of tactics in a forum where people who know the game a helluva lot better than you do happen to read. The fact that you posted isn't an issue. It takes a certain amount of balls to do that. You problem is that you've taken the comments as a personal attack instead of a chance to rethink your tactics and learn from them.

You defend a provably wrong theory to the point of absurdity. That's why you failed here. It's not that you tried, that's to be commended, but that you couldn't possibly be wrong that is the issue.

Get over it.

Or you can continue to make pithy pot shots at me. Your choice.

omfg. u r just like this sunday school teacher i once had. he kept telling me how jesus would forgive me after i kept telling him how unimaginably goofy he was. lmao.

i bow to your.. uhh lets call it assertiveness.

relax my young angry turtle. if you don't think it'll work, don't bother. actually, u r just sayin it's impossible without any viable alternative. so just go make yourself a sandwich or somethin then. ..and ironically name calling one of the many possible tactics as "scared".

well.. i'm done typin for now.

The US needs 28 seconds to reach Temple, 34 seconds to reach Market. The PLA can reach either Temple or Market from Old Square in 19 seconds. A US run to Harbor needs 47 seconds and is well within sight of everyone at/running to Old Square, Temple and Harbor and has to pass under the Harbor bridge, exposing the advance to the (ostensibly waiting) PLA tanks.

Making Old Square neutral and forcing the PLA to spawn at Fish Market makes their times more like 35 seconds for Market and 46 seconds for an iron-man run to Temple.

Of course, Fish Market still has a spawn point that drops the PLA off at Market in only 17 seconds.

Either the map should be opened up to the north to allow the US to skirt the PLA lockdown on Temple and attack Harbor as an option, or (and in my opinion, a better option) the map should be opened to the south and the flags redistributed slightly to allow the US an attack path through the islands and industrial complexes there. As it is, OBP is little more than a big funnel on a PLA meatgrinder, set heavily in favor of the PLA troops' total dominance.

that would make it more balanced but the point i was tryin to make is that usa does have options despite the obstacles. winning on the chines side doesn't bring much glory. winning as usa.. now that takes true skill..
