rocketman Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I've just recently started playing H2H games. I usually play Elite vs the AI and consider myself experienced at that level. The guys I play now wanted to play on Warrior level as that was their comfort level. But it made me think. Could it be so that I have more of an advantage of playing Warrior in comparison to the disadvantage they would have to play Elite? Would they stand a better chance and level the playing field (I'm not saying I'm winning easily ) playing Elite, even though it is a level higher than they are used to? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting fires like mortars and artillery are much more responsive when you play Warrior versus Elite/Iron. There is a world of difference between 105s taking six minutes to smash a TRP and those same 105s taking two minutes. I don't know if that is applicable in your case, but it is something of which you should be aware. I think you can get 81s or 75mm pack howitzers on a TRP in a minute flat, but I'm not totally sure of that since I haven't played Warrior in a few years.

delliejonut Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Also C2 is much quicker and more forgiving. You should be able to push your units a little harder than you used to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warrior level also has the realistic timing for artillery etc. See page 28 Skill Levels. It is Veteran level that has the shorter times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulletpoint Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The only difference between Warrior and Elite is that enemy infantry contact markers always show generic "infantry". They won't be identified as "Machinegun", "AT-team" etc. But it's a pretty useless feature, since you can just click on the enemy icon to see more info about the unit. So unless you play realtime and attention time is limited, Elite level just makes the game interface less easy to use. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 LOL that's what I feel about Iron. I would prefer that the extra information not be available when you click on the enemy while playing Elite but I do like the simple infantry icons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
