Last night's event wasn't nearly as enjoyable as the event held last Wednesday. It felt even less organized than the normal battles on your other server. Though, to be fair I was in the pug group, and our tactical playbook consisted of 1) group up and 2) move in.
I don't really feel like M&B lends itself to rewarding gameplay for small squads. And for those of us without a squad -- forget it. We were a useless rolling zerg of auxiliaries. Perhaps, however, a compromise could be reached. Maybe those who are fortunate enough to belong to a clan could all play a single troop type, and make use of their synergy that way e.g. ATS could play Cavalry on team 1. Of course, I'd also like to do away with the squads being sequestered in their own private channels. That was the silliest part of the whole evening. Ventrillo apartheid must end if nothing else!
