Good points.
Taking those points into consideration, I run platooned mostly
so, providing we have 4 or 5 and given the items you mentioned
that you have to have (favorable MM, tanks choices, where the
schwerpunkt will occur, etc) we can normally commit to the
undefended side.
But, it still requires a decision, and if we do decide to
"follow the train" you make some very good points, the most
important one being......
PUSH!!! :charge:
.......a stalled lemming train is a loss waiting to happen.

a stalled lemming train is a wasted opportunity. Let's call it
a "General McClellan"

While platooning with Oxi, if there is an Arty in the match,
stay away from Oxi because he will be hit by Arty 95% of the
time!

Slackers Pearls of Wisdom.
1. When grinding tank lines try only doing one tank type at a
time. All lights then, mediums, heavies, TD, and Arty. Each tank
type has it own style of play and this keeps constancy and
improves game play.
2. Always Keep a eye on the mini map. situational awareness is
very important.
3. When playing a light tank just do not run out and die. Your
gun can prove key. light tanks are most valuable middle to late
in the game. when (hopefully) the reds are thinned out and you
can use your speed and maneuverability to flank and harass them.
4. When scouting (light tank or Medium) always scout at the max
of your view range. Do not run in and give easy shoots to the
reds. All that is needed is a general idea were the reds are
pushing.
5. Know your tanks!!! Know there week spots, rate of fire,
penetration, and damage. Knowing a tank will be the difference
between killing and being killed. If you know your opponents
week spots and he does not know yours you win.
If you know you have more DPM then you win. If you know when to
run you win.
Hope this helps.
P.S. A little Drunk = good tanking. Very dunk = very fun but
poor tanking. :superdrunk:

This one is very important and one that I have not put enough
energy into. I just have general categories in my mind of
things like: "ram it", "not a threat", "shoot it in the back",
Don't get shot by it", and "Super scary, RUN AWAY!"
I'm lazy.
