Trench War 18 - Marble Game 

Yup, knew it was over when that number came up.

Yeaa

when i saw the zeppelin push i said we are doomed (randomly supported blue) and then 816 marble came, fuck that was some lucky and epic shit. green zepellins gave a good fight though

“I know what I must do.” 🤣

That was around 16,000 marbles

“Sir I have to insist, I really don’t think marbles have a pre-set kill limit” “Well only one way to find out, private”

The reason why human wave tactics are still popular 😶😶

Ussr be like:

Actually in real life the tanks didn't explode when shot but ok

@@ZackShark1 they didn’t but when they contacted the flame at the tip of the thrower they could combust, or if the bullet sparked on its way through

Yeah, and armored trains, if you know what I mean.

@@ZackShark1 In real life a tsunami of riflemen doesnt happen either

@@miitoe9352World war 1 and the Korean War?

I don't think automatic grenade launcher wouldve mattered in this battle

nah brah this is why militaries devloped Automatic 82mm Mortars (2b9 Vasilek)

@@ataarono The mortar is kinda . . not that useful in this case? Like sure it throws a lot of small explosive rounds down range, but its quite innacurate, so quite pointless if the enemy manages to reach close range if you dont want to risk your own troops. Also like . . machine guns exist? Human wave tactics can only be useful if you are willing to take massive casualties and if the terrain allows it If the terrain is just flat land, Your attack is just gonna be completely destroyed by machine guns and artillery no matter how many men you throw at it. If the terrain is much more restricting, allowing attacking forces to be behind cover until they are much closer where you could risk hitting your own troops with artillery, then you could overrun the enemy position, still at the cost of massive casualties. Automatic grenade launchers were meant to be used against defences.

What? Any full-auto firearm counters human wave tactics. That's literally why the Western Front in WW1 turned into a trench war in the first place. Because machineguns could shred infantry by the thousands. By the time of the Korean War everyone with access to modern firearms knew that, and tactics had evolved away from human waves entirely. Automatic grenade launchers are for destroying light armour, entrenched enemy positions, and suppressing enemies in cover. They're not for countering human wave tactics, because no-one ever did that after WW1.

@@tbotalpha8133 china and Korea using wave tactics:

Same

It's RNG, what could he have done.

I think the issue is how frequently we get such large numbers. The +50 maybe could get toned down to a +25 or +30. The 16,000 infantry from that one marble would've been 8,000 or 9,600. Which... is also a lot, but +50 is still maybe too big. Or I just prefer green over blue, which is also true.

@@PeterBarnes2both you like green and it needs to be 35

The thing is, it's part of the fun to get those big numbers. It's not a competitive RTS for things to be balanced

That would mean the marble is sacrificed for an advantage the other team might get too. You’d have to split it into two timers, one for each color.

no its not sacrificed@@TheDemigans

@@conorgalvin4289 ah I misunderstood

@TheDemigans I was just kinda thinking it bounced off like normal, it's just that it would also reduce the timer slightly.

You sir, have just reiterated the story of the German Eastern Front of WWII in short.

I mean, they did have some zeppelins and tanks, and those got destroyed in literal seconds so the only thing that could have saved green is mortars and all forms of artillery

I would play the shit out of this game if it were real.

The main problem I see with mortars is its tendency to all shoot at the same spot. It's most visible around 10:50 or so. Whole waves of mortar fire hitting a single point. If there was a wider random stagger on their hit location so 75% didn't go to waste, they'd have decimated that wave.

@@raynetaylor4337 lol you are right

That was simply a times 204 going into a x20 infantry. That was just luck

@@argostar3423 816 not 204, and that's the joke.

Both this video and the red vs blue one. blue just got the +50 then x2 it 2-3 times while at deaths door xD

@@shawnhiggins1005 "for mother Russia" just run conscripts at the enemy till they have no bullets left
