That's actually the trick in Insane. Now that you've noticed them, it should be fairly straightforward.So I have tried insane twice now, got smoked in both. Near the end of the second attempt someone attacked cuba and I said to myself "how did I get troups over in cuba"?Thats when I realized that you start with 8 troups in cuba.
Send me an invite and I'll join up. I'm gboklage over there.
Going to give it a shot now...That's actually the trick in Insane. Now that you've noticed them, it should be fairly straightforward.So I have tried insane twice now, got smoked in both.

If you've gotten to Insane, quit trying and play multiplayer.
Like Tick said, stop messing with Insane and start doing some multiplayer action. Very fun stuff.For Pinkbladder fans, I wasted him on the (very interesting) Chicago map and made him weep. My current annoying nemesis: slejer. Real doosh.
Except beating the Insane challenge puts you in an elite group. Gas and I got invited to a tournament with the best players on Warlight because of it. And it is fun when you finally beat it.
I will live without the l33thood and the resulting tourney invites. But yes, I'm sure it is fun and I've gone out of my way to give you and Gas megacredit.
Pink's full of himself, but he really is quite good at the game.
I sent Tecumseh a very detailed plan of attack in a pm, if he still has it maybe he can forward it to you. Other than that, Gas's directions in spoilers are probably just as good.As to South America North, I usually don't plug it, I use that plug in Anadyr N. If I go to South America at all it's to attack out of it into Canada S. Usually doesn't work though. You can ignore South America until you see them there, there are a lot of little spaces in it they'll waste time on. I usually put a forward defense in Brazil and just let them bang their heads on it.
Got it, Thanks!
Randy (Site creator) is fairly active in the forums. Only thing I've ever heard him say about the future of the site is improvements he's working on. Seems like he should at least put up a paypal button or something, I'd throw him some cash just for the game and to keep the servers going.
I know some players use them to test new maps out. Outside of the challenges I prefer human opponents, though. There's a difference, the AI is somewhat predictable. And it can't do things like multi-attack, and it won't use cards, other than reinforcements.
Thanks. Good call on PayPal. I would donate too. I'll check the forums; I've also wanted to suggest (or add support to, if as seems likely someone has already suggested) the idea of a PM feature.TexanFan02 said:
Hey, the guy on another team named Goggy in there is someone I know from other games and have met IRL. Please say hi to him for me - he knows me best as Tick. Let him know that "FBG guys are like AFK guys."I would have joined your team if I had gotten there in time.Dragons said:
In. Team is full. Team B needs more victimsparticipants, tho.Side and I could use 4 more FBGs to help dominate this game: http://warlight.net/App.aspx?GameID=1075377
ETA - Sorry This Guy.
I need Dragons and Tick to teach me the Asia map. I always get my brains beat in on that one.
heya pardner
I'm in much the same boat; finally feel like I have some sort of handle on the Europe map and a lot of the less popular maps (British Isles, NZ, Chicago, even Big US to some halfass extent), but East Asia . . . yeah.

Give us your screen names and we'll get you in the FBG games.crnerblitz said:
There's no real secret (that I've found) with the Asia map. If it's not too crowded, it's size is more geared toward my strengths (growth) than what's needed in other smaller maps (head to head combat).Side and I just (and Humuna, until he got booted after notifying everyone he was going on vacation) just beat 2 teams of 3 in the Poland tournament. Side fought a great head to head battle, messing with 2-3 opponents enough while I found room to grow and become unstoppable. http://warlight.net/App.aspx?GameID=1068687
Nevermind, we picked up another random third.
Done. Sorry, had a sick daughter yesterday and I came down with it today.
Ugh, sorry to hear that. Glad you got your move in, those polish bastards probably wouldn't sympathize.
Is this the same tourney where Jojo, Stackhouse and I have been frozen for about two weeks because some group of three waited ten days to boot one of their opponents? If so, I believe we're still waiting on the outcome of that contest, although the Courtesy Kings finally did boot the vanishee.
I really like the ME map for 3 vs 3. If you're good you can piece together where everyone is and what they're doing pretty quickly and find the perfect strategy.As Dragons mentioned, the East Asia map is more about growth. It seems harder to get that overall gameplan, you just kinda gotta grow and when you meet the enemy, hope you grew faster.
We're inching our way through the loser's bracket on this one... it would be cool to meet you guys again.
