Isle Of Conquest 101

[Felidan]

the new Isle of Conquest bg is basically Wintergrasp+ Alterac Valley+ Arathi basin.
You must break down teh enemys keep walls useing Siege vehicales, bombs or even teh gunships cannon.

the vehicales are as follow (gunship in differnt catagory)

Demolisher: exactly like teh Wintergrasp demolishedr besides its 100k health, only 4 are availible when u capture teh workshop but they will respawn when they die.

Super Siege tank: when u capture teh workshop the tank will have a 3min countdown while it is being repaired. if the shop is assaulted duriong the repair time it restarts.
the Super Sige Tank is like a land based battleship. has huge amount of health 350k, has a pair of flame turrets that can shoot napalm or act like a flame thrower, the main cannon is extreamly powerful and can easily kill the horde and has a aoe attack that deals massive damage and a push back yet it disabls it for a short time. the driver can charge ahead dealing alot of damage to all those around him, as well as use the traditional ram but has a fast cooldown making this vehicale very powerful but do not squander it and charge headlong at a full set of 6 turrets as they will shred it in seconds.

The Catapult which u get from the docks has no offensive abilitys of its own but can move very fast at the same time enables stealth, and can fling its ocupant near anywhere note: u won't die on impact u get buff that lets u live

Gliave Thrower: this is a lethal weapon in teh right hands, can kill infantry very quickly but do to the long air time of its shots its not recomended to use on them unless they are stationary or your really good at leading targets, have a blade salvo that can shred infantry or turret. glaive thrower is best to 1st kill the turrets then attack teh wall, the thrower also has very long range u should use

Wall Cannon: teh wall cannons have long range but can't reach teh glaive throwers if they are far enough away, none the less they can annialate the enemy and have a napalm rocket that set a patch of ground on fire and anything in it suffers 1500 damage per second,

The GunShip: the huge flying gunships can not be driven as they havea s et course but it has 5 cannons that can pound the enemy into submission also if u jump off teh ship u automatically deploy a parachute so u can jump into the enemys keep and use the bombs on teh wall from teh inside,

the points
there are 5 stratigic points on the map.

Hanger: gives acess to the gunship and starts it on its rounds around the island and around teh enemy keep

Workshop: gives u 4 demolishers and bombs, as well as in 3 min a Super Siege Tank

Docks: gives you 4 catapults and 2 glaive throwers

quarryy and refinery: when captured give u a buff that increases siege damage and give honor and renforcements.

tactics: the thing most people do is swarm teh hanger and all jump on teh ship then all bomb the door..... in theory they sawrm it sure but not all of tehm get on the ship and jump. that would be great and a fast way to win... but people don't listen....

another way is to take botht he workshop and docks then pound teh wall to dust then rush teh boss but don't forget to leave a FEW at the keep to stop the enemy from rushing bombs to ur own walls.

there are many ways to win including simply killing all the renforcements of teh enemybut those are often a long shot although i've won like that 2 times so far while writing this.

use this well and crush teh horde!!

[Felidan]

now due to a nerf on teh bombs that u use if u parachute via airship the main tactic is to rush the docks and take teh 2 glaive throwers and pound teh west wall while defending both the docks the glaives themselves and ur keep. the gliaves must be defended heavily since the horde don't exactly like them shooting at there keeps walls, those Eng with the goblin welding beam are loved as they can heal teh glaives if they are damaged.

so far this has been the "winning stratagey"
but its a race, the horde will have the hanger and teh workshop so those defending better fight hard or its impossible

I still havent done this BG yet! THANKS FEL!

[felidan]

like i said before the docks are a winner but there is one problem now, the horde have realized this too, so when the battle starts nearly EVERY SINGLE HORDE will sawrm to the docks and you should have nearly every person on the team swarm to teh docks as well and have maybe 3 to 5 people go for teh hanger as a back up plan.

when nearly every single battle participant is at the docks it can be one huge battle for simply holding onto the docks flag. even if u do capture the docks u must clear away teh horde or they will immediatly go for teh glaives and wreck them to slow u down

once u get teh glaives send them down to teh west wall and use them to break it, have a good grp defending them or a long wait for another will begin, but HOLD ONTO TEH DOCKS when teh horde take teh workshop they will swarm from teh south to teh docks to try to take u off gaurd, so be rdy!

while this is easier said then done it is possible, but if the horde DO get teh docks you must do several things,

1. take out teh glaive throwers when they start attack and don't go alone they will gaurd them just like u would if u had them.

2. use the hanger if u still have it, and drop as many as u can and use teh bomb on closest door

3 if u ever get teh chance to capture teh workshop you shoiuld take it! and send each and every demolisher to either the west gate (if already damaged by glaives) or east though not many go east but still the west and east gates have far fewer cannons to hinder you! oh yeah... NEVER GO MIDDLE GATE WITH ANYTHING WHEN THERE IS A FULL SET OF CANNONS SHOOTING AT YOU!!!!
