first the situation:
we have sm upgrading, wp under construction
all nearby towers have been recently wiped of upgrades
all of our towers have lots of supply and upgrades
approximately equal forces fielded by each server (15-20 men each cuz its NA am down time)
we are able to find time to cap n run, but the outer enemy towers are being backcapped more or less asap
idea:
as you (commander) sweep thru a tower... before leaving, build 2 arrow carts and designate 2 people to sit behind. when et/hod come knocking, you already have a first round defense set up to stop their rams and throw them into disarray. have those 2 people call out to you for backup, and make sure they know to talk to each other about what siege is up.
this will be easier to pull off once the sm wp is complete. if youre able to defend the tower, push to the camp, cuz itll be the wrong color. empty it and repair tower damage. then head to the next call. if you arent able to defend the tower, leave it. deal with any other calls. once those are managed, attempt retake (so the enemy forces have hopefully left).
put 1 of the carts in the courtyard so it definitely cant be killed by easy means. put the other on an inner wall ledge so it can see the surrounding area and toss out supporting fire for when you come.
sounds kinda simple, probably gonna be super hard to pull off

)... and it worked beautifully. it really helped that et took notice of what we were doing... and they decided they didnt want to fight us and painted hod bl red. we had token resistance from both corners, just enough to delay us in taking upgraded towers and keep us out of the keeps, but neither of them could mount any kind of attack because they were fighting each other. we saw the rise and fall of many, many trebs... as opposed to quick ram jobs. nothing about the resistance was fast, which allowed us to fully upgrade golanta and rogues for a good amount of time... and keep 5 supply lines into sm. ive never seen such a quick upgrade schedule in sm. we were able to queue everything as each up was completed. a couple hours ago, our non-vampires started logging in to the sight of a wp in sm and a small point lead on hod instead of trailing by 5k and a green wp.
