i have to say, that i saw many other silo placements, which are so stupid i dont want to show.
But if i forgot an important silo formation please tell me and i will add it.

please tell me your favorite silo formation!

thx why
sry feud

[rus|Mike]

Using favourite silo formation is a weakness which can be exploited by a high-skilled enemy. That's why I use somewhat random placements, the only common thing for them is grouped silos.

But I guess double line is my favourite. For 6p I usually use single line.

The offset double line is more dense then a normal one, just like the triangle. So if density is important...

[Pwnbroker]

It depends on the setup. Where you place your silos in your territory affects their flight pattern. After I decide on the location then I evaluate the best arrangement.

[shak]

sure i do it the same and dont place silos same way every game,
but i have a favourite silos formation and thought you all have that too.
my favorite is triangle but i dont use it very often.

[Why?]

the star.............v....

the cross...........v....

no favorite, really. different things for different situations.

[Blackbeard]

The pissed..............feck i forgot me silos

[tllotpfkamvpe]

.

[Feud]

Point of order:

Technically, the Feud is not:

:VV
VRV
:VV

That's a modified setup. I use it, though not as much.

Rather, the Feud silo set up is like my avatar shows.

[Pwnbroker]

It is unwise to place your silos in a formation that you can't handle. It is more important to be able to perform an effective launch. The double line is probably the easiest to launch from, imho. I think the Feud is also an easy silo set to launch from with a minimal amount of practice.

[Blackbeard]

The noob is my favourite opponent.

NOT my opinion .

[Why?]

^haha

I think the star, and the slanted 6-pk, are the best for tight launches....easiest to time, and they're very close together.

[world idiot]

feud and fake feud are soooo versatile, both aggressively (launches) and defensively (the radar in the centre ensures the silos will always have some defensive value).
