"Battering rams". The goal is for your teamates to sacrifice themselves, and create holes for you to go through. This allows you to get to the zone.

I was already wondering how long it would take for players to find out about the use of sacrifice :?

hmm why was i under the assumtion it was called steam roll O_O..crazy rabbit...

Anyway its fun, and a couple people found out how to block battering ram like this

Code: Select all

 ___          <----- #imagine this is a wall made by an           
|__                     #oponite while your steamrolling                      
 __|                    #or whatever its called...
|___

  ^
^ | ^
| | |
| | |       #These are the guys steamrolling,
| | |       #the guy makes the lines 
| | |       #above as they approach...
| | |
in front of the line of them, cuz if they turn left most of them die, and only one guy can turn right..unless he breaks off before he sees this coming.. then its time to think up a new strat...
Damn, it sure has been a while!

TnA: when blocking like that, keep in mind the explosion radius.

Some Fortress screenshots. :)

Edit: Forgot to say, I can't get reliable grinds. I can't consistently "adjust" 3 m, and I can't consistently make close grinds. It just kills me after a few round trips after turning in the latter case, and immediately in the former. Also, sometimes it seems I have no rubber at all: I blow up about 1 m in front of a wall.
