Chained strategies

[iamkoolerthanu]

I have primarily used unlimited fortifications in my CC games, and do not know how to play chained successfully... does anyone have any info that might help me?

Mostly on classic/doodle map... i dont know if it makes a difference.

I think they play pretty much the same. In small maps there's practically no difference...

In chained, you just need to keep in mind that you only get 1 reinf. So you need to plan ahead when you deploy your troops... Ie. If there's two places that require troops, and you can't get them there by 1 reinforcement, then you need to take that in consideration when you deploy.

so basically, its the same thing as unlim, just a lot harder? lol

[natty dread]

Not harder necessarily... If you take in account the fact that your opponents won't be able to mass all their troops into one stack for an attack, in just one turn like in unlimited...

But chained reinforcements (not to mention adjacent) are a real pain in the arse in large maps... I personally like chained best when used in small-medium size maps.
