Concentrate budget on top earners with force shields and heavy missiles to extend survival and increase burst damage, starving dead-weight scouts.

Goals: Prioritize shielded vanguard strikes on key tanks; strip budget from unproductive scouts to fund survivability and burst damage. · Style: Calculate restraint via force_shielded advances, trading low-earning scouts for heavy_missile coverage while holding objectives.

{'name': 'shielded-vanguard', 'description': 'Lead tanks deploy shields to absorb damage while heavy weapons break enemy clusters, enabling sustained mid-range pressure.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'engaged', 'range_band': ['mid'], 'hp_band': ['high']}, 'body': 'Position 10_battle and 14_battle behind mid-range cover, activate force_shield to tank incoming fire, while 17_heavy and 18_heavy flank to rain heavy_missiles on clustered enemies.'}

AlphaStrike leads match score but has 0 round wins, indicating high damage output but poor survivability or objective retention. Maintain map control to convert pressure into round victories.

Scouts earning <$100 are dead weight; concentrate funds on force shields and heavy missiles for top battles/heavies to drastically improve survival and objective control.

Deprioritizing scouts entirely to concentrate force_shields and heavy_missile on surviving battle/heavy tanks, enabling shielded vanguard pushes and burst elimination of clustered threats.

{'name': 'shielded-vanguard', 'description': 'Advance tanks with active force_shields into enemy sightlines to absorb initial fire, then unleash heavy_missile and roller barrages on clustered targets before retreating.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'searching', 'range_band': ['mid'], 'hp_band': ['high']}, 'body': 'Position shielded tanks at map center to draw fire, then deploy rollers and heavy_missiles into enemy clusters to secure early eliminations and objective control.'}

Enemy forces cluster aggressively around objectives, making them vulnerable to baby_nuke and mirv burst damage when exposed.

Scouts consistently fail to secure kills or survive past early engagement; redirecting all budget to shielded heavy/battle tanks yields higher placement and damage efficiency.

Strip scouts entirely; funnel $18k into 9 heavy units with 10-24 shields and 9-21 heavy missiles to guarantee vanguard survivability and burst.

Goals: Prioritize shielded vanguard strikes on key tanks; strip budget from unproductive scouts to fund survivability and burst damage. · Style: Calculate restraint via force_shielded advances, trading low-earning scouts for heavy_missile coverage while holding objectives.

VanguardStorm leads match point; need round win to stay alive.

Scouts earned <$80 last round; redirect all funds to battles/heavies with shields+HM.

Survival dictates VP capture; shield our top performers to guarantee map presence and objective denial over raw DPS.

Goals: Secure objectives through unmatched survivability; every tank must reach mid-round to contest map control. · Style: Layered assault anchored by force_shields; we absorb the first strike to dictate the pace, denying enemies clean lines of sight.

{'name': 'shielded-push', 'description': 'When contesting objectives, front line tanks deploy shields to tank aggro while rear units flank to secure points.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'engaged', 'range_band': ['close', 'mid'], 'hp_band': ['mid', 'high']}, 'body': 'The tank with the highest HP deploys force_shields immediately upon spotting enemies, drawing fire and creating a safe corridor for squadmates to push into the objective zone without taking initial volleys.'}

VanguardStorm's early win suggests aggressive objective grabs; we must deny spawn pushes and rotate to contested mid-points to starve their economy.

Survival dictates VP capture; tanks that stay alive on high ground secure objectives and fund future rounds. Prioritize shields and positioning over burst damage.

Equip all tanks with force_shields to prevent early elimination and secure mid-round presence, while adding heavy_missiles to battles and nukes to heavies for reliable burst damage once positioned.

Goals: Prioritize shield usage to guarantee mid-round survival and objective contesting, leveraging heavy_missile and nuke bursts to clear threats once shielded. · Style: Layered assault anchored by force_shields; we absorb the first strike to dictate the pace, denying enemies clean lines of sight.

Previous round saw 100% tank loss; force_shields are mandatory for survivability, and scouts need rollers for map control rather than relying solely on baby missiles.

Hulls are dying pre-mid-round; universal force_shield deployment absorbs opening burst, enabling sustained pressure and objective control.

{'name': 'shield-wall-hold', 'description': 'Frontline tanks deploy force_shields immediately upon spotting enemies to create a damage-absorbing line.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'engaged', 'range_band': ['close', 'mid'], 'hp_band': ['high', 'mid']}, 'body': 'All heavies and scouts activate force_shields the moment they lock onto an enemy contact. Maintain position to block line-of-sight and absorb the initial burst, allowing infinite baby_missile spam to whittle down targets while shields hold.'}

VanguardStorm holds match point and likely plays aggressively to close out. We must force a stalemate or survive to trigger late-round mechanics.

Tanks are dying before mid-round due to lack of burst absorption. Force shields are mandatory for all hulls to survive engagement windows.

Equipping every tank with force_shields and upgrading main batteries to heavy_missile or nuke/mirv guarantees survivability for the core duelists while providing overwhelming firepower to secure objectives and eliminate VanguardStorm's match-point squad.

{'name': 'shield-wall-advance', 'description': 'All tanks deploy force_shields before advancing or engaging to absorb initial burst damage.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'engaged', 'range_band': ['close', 'mid'], 'hp_band': ['low', 'mid', 'high']}, 'body': 'On engagement, every tank deploys a force_shield immediately to block incoming fire, then focuses fire on the nearest enemy with heavy_missile or nuke/mirv for maximum area denial and elimination.'}

VanguardStorm holds match point and plays aggressively; expect early focused fire on high-value targets. Must survive the opening burst to counter-engage.

Survivable tanks with shields and heavy ammo dominate; fragility wastes income. Focus resources on core heavies/battles to hold objectives and win duels.

Stockpiling additional force_shields across the frontline to maximize first-hit absorption and secure mid-round placements.

{'name': 'shield-vanguard-hold', 'description': 'Deploy force_shields immediately upon spawning to block initial enemy lines of sight, then counter-attack with heavy_missiles once shields are active.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'engaged', 'range_band': ['close', 'mid'], 'hp_band': ['high']}, 'body': 'Frontline tanks (heavy/battle) deploy all force_shields at spawn to create a solid wall, hold position for 3 seconds to absorb initial volleys, then advance slowly while firing heavy_missiles at clustered enemies or shielded positions.'}

VanguardStorm applies concentrated crossfire early; tanks that hold ground behind shields survive, but scouts exposed on flanks get melted quickly.

Survivability hinges on shield density; tanks with 4+ shields consistently reached mid-round, while those with 2 or fewer were eliminated early by focused fire.

Fortify squad survivability with uniform shield coverage and sustained heavy fire to delay engagements until mid-round.

Goals: Prioritize shield coverage across all hulls to ensure mid-round presence; reduce reliance on single-hit explosives in favor of sustained denial.

{'name': 'force_shield_wall', 'description': 'Creates a mobile forward barrier with lead heavies to force overcommits.', 'applies_when': {'phase': 'searching', 'range_band': ['mid'], 'hp_band': ['high']}, 'body': 'Deploy shields on the two lead heavy tanks and nearest battle hulls to create a mobile forward barrier, forcing enemies to overcommit or circle while midfield scouts reposition.'}

Enemies cluster initially then push hard, overwhelming low-shield hulls before heavy fire can reset lines; they exploit gaps in forward coverage.

Tanks with <5 shields consistently die pre-mid-round; buying in bulk ensures at least one charge survives first engagements and dictates pace.
