Are you the one gamer in any group who always makes the most unexpected decisions in a game? |

Considering my profile name here is "Cavcrazy" it's a pretty good bet that I'm going to do what nobody else would, luckily I have pretty good luck…and so did Custer up until the end!😂 |

I am kind of in the middle of our group – there are a few guys who always do the same thing (usually a full frontal charge) and a few who can never be predicted |

I have a plan, something that seems unusual with most gamers. It does not mean I'm predictable though |

I knew you were going to ask that … |

No, in my group we are all fairly conservative in our play. I might be the most likely to try something but not often. |

Hard to be unpredictable as a soloist |

As "Cavcmdr" I am likely to be a more aggressive player than most. Attacking, with the full cooperation of combined arms is where its at. I cannot be relied on to hold a safe defensive position. Somewhere out there will be a flank I can charge. When I see it I am off to cause havoc to the enemy. |

Cavcrazy, whilst other players might not use your tactics, they might not bee surprised when you do! |

@ Advocate. It's not so much I am unpredictable, it's more of I'll charge into a fight even if it looks like I will lose. Lucky for me, when that type of chaos ensues, I somehow manage to not only survive, but it always seems to cause a victory. |

Nope. I am "Mr. Predictable." |
Mister Tibbles | 07 Jul 2023 10:57 a.m. PST |
Yes because I usually do not know the rules or period! |
smithsco | 07 Jul 2023 12:43 p.m. PST |
I'm not the most unpredictable but I'm the most unpredictable in not stupid ways. Usually unpredictability equates to poor decisions in my group. |

I'm fairly methodical in dismantling my opponents by combined arms, no matter which period. Not really into banzai charges, my a systematic destruction. |

Unpredictable in most war games is a euphemism for being stupid. A pointless ill thought out banzai charge is being "unpredictable" see above. Novel well thought out strategies that the enemy had not considered is not being "unpredictable" but showing a flash of genius. Now there are games that are sufficiently unrealistic and random that strange strategies may work, like winning the lottery but that is gambling not being Unpredictable in any sense other than the one outlined here. |
