Just got my Navy Cross, now it is time for Golden Scimitar.
Really don't want to loss all the MEC rounds if I am a commander and I will never be able to graduate from the War College.


Karkand seems always USMC wins. Gulf of Oman seems even on both side.
No idea about the others.

Yeah! Sharqi! MEC (if a half decent team), should win, if only just!

EDIT: Actually, I've played a Sharqi where we won by 238 tickets...

Sharqi seems to be the best for the MEC. You should try Kubra Dam too, I don't play much on the map but I think its pretty even for both sides

Gulf of Oman and Sharqi Peninsula.

On attack-defend maps like sharqi and karkand, the defending side will be at disadvantage the lower the number of players is, since they have more to defend with less players. So on a 50 slot server is MEC more likely to win on Sharqi Peninsula than on a 64 slot server.

on servers where I play:

Karkand - MEC win (most)
Oman - MEC win
Sharqi - MEC win (by default?)
Mashtuur - MEC win (most)
Kubra Dam - MEC win

and yes, I play MEC

Are you kidding?

MEC cannot win Oman without air support and with one piddly stinger emplacement how are they going to protect the airfield?

There are 2 stinger emplacements on the gulf of oman map on the mec airbase.  1 at each end of the runway.

If you can force the US back to the carrier, Gulf of Oman is the easiest for the MEC to win.

Sharqi MEC usually always win

Oman MEC has a better chance if USMC can be pushed back

Yes, I was referring to the 64 version of Oman. According to my stat that map give me most wins (of ME theatre maps) and I know I almost always play as MEC on it. The jets should be a problem but usually isn't, I'm not sure why.

I don't have clue about the other sizes, it may of course be US who has the upper hand on those.

No need to protect the airfield if you have a decent Mig pilot, then the SU does its job and bombs the USMC hardware while your ground troops take all the flags.

I've noticed the MEC team normally does well on Zater Wetlands, that is, if you want to put up with Zater Wetlands.

Karkand (16/32) - MEC wins almost all the time. It's easier for MEC to win on 16/32 maps. USMC has an advantage on 64 player maps(lack of MEC defenders and coordination)

Sharqi,  plain and simple.  MEC has uncappables,  once they capture the city entrance usually they just roll through all the way to the TV station.

In Sharqi,  MEC has to be quick at the beginning of the round,  to capture the 1st spawn point.

Usually if its too tough to capture the 1st spawn point,  a squad usually goes back and tries to capture the TV station.  Once that happens,  the US are pinned in the middle.

However I still dont understand why some MEC squad try to take over hotel at the beginning of each map.  Alleyway is a better choice.  I understand to stop the ticket drain,  but I think its the least advantagous spawn point,  because then you are fighting an uphill battle to get to construction site...etc.  Besides those flags get retaken by USMC once City entrance has been taken.

Also,  the MEC's assets are in different uncappables.,  compared to the assets all in TV station.

Also MEC has an extra APC compared to the US which dont have the extra armor vehicle.

This is based on playing Internode 24/7 Sharqi 64 Player.

When I'm playing with a few guys on TS we usually take the TV station within the first 3-5 minutes of play, and rarely let them have it back.

Not really on Oman because usually 15 people on the MEC team are standing on the runway waiting for 2 jets.

if you play as mec on karland the chances of winning, are about 10%
the reason this is so low.. is you need the americans to take a few flags and then get them all back and hold them all back with the 1 tank.
but since the usa has a tank and apc.. and if they are both eng the mec team dont really stand a chance. unless the team switches to anti-tank and lays a nice row of mines/c4
