The Art of Ramming Theory

<< < (2/7) > >>

Kamoba:
There are two types of horizontal rams:
Damage rams, most effective when the enemies hull is down, moonshine or kerosene is a good aid to this.
Controlling rams, very difficult to pull off well and requires a lot of practice, you ram the enemy so that you're in their blind spot, if you're controlled enough and don't use kerosene or moonshine you'll be able to slow your ship down and keep them facing the way you want them for as long as you need, but it requires a lot of practice, awareness and good comma with your engineer.

Two types of vertical rams.
Up, normally done when you're coming from under an enemy, it's very hard to make this effective but can be very useful when an ally needs help if you have hydrogen, not advised for most players..

Down, very effective when you're equipped with a carro, pop ballon position yourself on top and drop, chute vent makes this such a beautiful way to crush Junkers..

Ramming is good when done right. If you are going to ram, make sure it leaves you with gun arcs on.

I think I remember fighting against you on Water Hazard. I tried to make it 1v1 but my ally kept tagging along and yours was a ghost ship. You weren't bad, did a good job keeping arcs when we did vertical splits.

Kamoba:
I fought against the man who wrote the guide which made me the pilot I am today?! Or do you mean original poster?

Wundsalz:
Read the post redria linked here! It's good stuff. And while you're on it, don't get indoctrinated by redrias kerosene obsession. Real men use moonshine to turn enemy ships into drive-throughs

The original poster. ;)

Wundsalz, kerosene is always better. I'll never give that up. :D
