WARNO – Guide to Points

Think Points

In a utopian, perfect WARNO match, all points you spend on units would be doing something to which makes you win a game.

Such as:

  • Pushing your frontline forward
  • Defending your frontline against an ENY push
  • Providing AA over your troops
  • Intercepting ENY CAS
  • Providing smoke and fires
  • Et cetera

When looking at my replays, I tend to win the games when more of my “points” are doing these things than my ENY

Examples:

  • My ENY has 4 AA Aircraft, even though I am not fielding a single plane
  • Most of my units are either pushing my front line forward or defending at the front line
  • I use my Arty to provide smokes for my pushes and fires to disrupt ENY pushes

I tend to loose games when I have a lot of “points” standing by, not doing something.

Examples:

  • AA idling 2 clicks behind my front line
  • A defensive flank not moving forward to gain an advantage
  • Units not moving and not fighting the ENY for 15 minutes
  • Having six aircraft cards chilling in the hangar for half of the match

When watching my own replays I always come to the same conclusion: I waste so many points on units that do not do something productive. If I had just bought more Inf and send them at the front line it would have been better.

Hypothesis I: When in doubt send your “points” to the front line.

OFC this will make me loose against a micro god. But my stuff shooting at my ENY stuff is still better than chilling somewhere 2 clicks away of the frontline. Once my micro gets better there is a time to incorporate them in my play style. Spending points on stuff I can’t effectively use is a waste and makes me loose games

Hypothesis II: A player using his cheap infantry effectively at the front line, can beat a player who has more expensive units idling in the hinterlands.

TLDR

Spend points on stuff you actually use.
