Cyber Battles, A Strategy

Written by zzboots

Tip The First: Back-stab

I know what you are thinking: "All of these other players are better than me. I simply cannot win." What these players have in strategy can easily be surpassed by some quick-witted mind games. A simple "lets have teams" can ensure a victory for you. So as the game progresses do as little as possible. Instead, let your teammate do all the dirty work. Then when he is weakened, pounce on him or her and reap all the benefits. You will win the game and earn the points. But don't worry if your team mate gets mad at you. For you will be able to find plenty of other chumps to fall victim to your tactics.

Tip The Second: Make the Unfair Advantage

In every single three-person situation, it is critical to your success to gain an unfair advantage. Best way to do this is to team up with the other player against the stronger player. Then you two can take out the other player and dispose of your teammate. Don't hesitate to back-stab on your teammate if need be. Using the handy personal messaging system you can easily form secret teams. Doing this is highly encouraged and should be done every game. Do whatever is necessary to form unfair teams. A nice little gem my inside mole revealed to me is the concept of the double hacksaw move. This occurs where you convince both players to team with you. Then you let both of them fight it out while you sit back and then pick off the winner. Lying makes things a whole lot easier.

Tip The Third: Sweet Talk Matlu into Changing Your Points

Let's face it. Even with the most manipulative strategies it is still hard to win many points. So what is the easiest way to gain many points easily? It's simple: convince Matlu into changing your score. Sweet talk and compliments are a good way to grease the wheels. Then offering to do favors and help Matlu out in whatever he needs. Constant begging is highly encouraged. Try to pass yourself off as a helpless, lost puppy dog. How will he be able to resist? If he is still hesitant, then try pretending to be a very "friendly" lady looking for some companionship. A few choice words and you are in.

Tip The Fourth: Cheat for Points

If the third tip unfortunately does not work, then proceed to follow this step. It is simply the easy task of cheating for points. For those of you have friends, get them to go on a guest name or a humorous fake name (such as Cheat4Life). Then you simply keep making games and killing your friend. If you are more advanced you can join games with your friend, then secretly team up and kill everyone else. Your friend then lets you have all the points to yourself. You then may want to help your friend gain points. WARNING: Do not use your own character to help your friend gain points. This is a common rookie mistake. For those of you without friends, find some sap willing to help you cheat (offer to help him cheat after). Then have him go on a guest name or another name and rake in the points. When it is your turn to help him cheat, say you suddenly have to go and just leave. Eventually a person will catch on and stop helping you. Feel free to flame and cuss out the person at this time. Just be sure he is finished helping you cheat before you do this or else you are just wasting a good resource. If anyone ever accuses you of cheating, just play dumb and everyone will believe you are innocent.

Tip The Fifth: Make Haste in Soliciting Shortcut Keys

Thanks to my mole good, old Alt F4 comes back into the spotlight. This trick is easy enough in case those previous ones proved to be too difficult. All you have to do is convince the other players to press Alt F4 during the middle of a game. Try telling them that this will give them bonus monsters or else some other super-cool upgrade. However, this move actually causes the game window to close, making one less player in the game. WARNING: Do not press Alt F4 yourself or else you will be booted from the game. Have fun talking people into this fine trap, but unfortunately most people will catch on after the first five or six times depending on intelligence level.

Tip The Sixth: Curse to Confuse

If there is one thing you want, that is a confused opponent. To achieve this, try using as much profanity and vulgar words as possible. This will distract your enemy, causing them to curse right back at you. They will loose focus on the game and you can easily snatch a victory. Don't be worried about hollow threats to report you. They are just bluffing. Repeat as necessary.

Tip The Seventh: Impersonate Matlu

Once again the mole comes through in providing this crafty tip. Simply start a game, then half way through pretend to be Matlu. Tell everyone that the server is on the verge of collapsing and everyone should log off now to avoid loosing his or her name forever. If people doubt that you are Matlu, just tell him you are a friend of matlu and he contacted you to warn everyone, since he could not log in. Have fun using this one over the course of time, always looking for new customers.

Tip The Eight: Beam anything Less than 20 Percent

And finally we get to possible moves you can make with the monsters! Try to beam down a Spideroid, Predator, Alien Queen, or Mech Warrior (or why not all four!) early in a game. Not only will it piss everyone around you off, but also you will have a wickedly awesome monster at your disposal. Just be careful for your enemy to send holos after your precious baby. Go around and destroy your enemies.

Tip The Ninth: Duck and Cover

This is the basic hide and let everyone else do the fighting move. Simply move to a corner of the game board and stay out of cover. If you have force field, alien goo, or fire, feel free to use any of them to help seal yourself in. Then send down a variety of monsters to insure no one can reach you. Wait for everyone to fight it out. Then at the very least, the game will draw. More than likely your enemy will die from your fire or goo.
