Rom strategy for guide

I'm not sure how good a strat it is but I have heard about the Warbird rush, presumably works best for Mijural.  Perhaps you know of one to post on the guide?

It's in the cooperative multiplayer section.

Doh!  Missed that one.

Yeah, I've made that mistake myself a few times.  Perhaps we could get a link in the "Romulan Strategies" section to the "Romulan Cooperative Multiplayer Strategies" section (and for the other races, as well)?

warbird rush is a slower strat. it takes time to get a ship out. leaving you vulnerable to early aggressive play. in this it is similar to vorcha rush.

so if u think your enemy is gonna do field yard kbq and kvort and make as many as they have money for, then you will find they have many ships out early to crush you with, while u have 1 warbird.

most people do mijural for warbirds as her bonuses are in the bird yard.

its possible to go for your first ship as a cehlaer. and get its special early to halt those pesky little ships.

ive also heard that cehlaer spam works ok against combat assim spam due to HDSG. against assiming assims their 250 crew isnt bad. they should escape with some crew left to repair. but their small numbers makes them vulnerable to assiming.

in 1v1 the slow nature or rushing to birds can be a liability.

in team games if u go fast bird and your ally goes for many early ships then its less risky. they can even fund u a little money to get more birds out fast.

The Warbird rush only works if you face a smaller number of LR ships...and the biggest downside is that you will not have a small yard for a long time making changes in strategy very difficult.

warbird rush works best against small numbers of long range ships.

but it does work in other situations too.

How would you like the links formatted? I.e. do you want them at the top of the page, bottom, etc.

(btw, just saying I think this is an odd idea, but if it really is that confusing, I hope the links alleviate that  )

I don't know.  Top or bottom would make the most sense, probably bottom because it'd be a bit weird to have an "Additional Strategies" link at the top of a strategy section.

You're right, it is a bit odd, but I think it probably wouldn't take much effort to change (just adding links) and it could alleviate some confusion.

I added the linking, hope that helps
