Battle in the Chat: Battle of Fairhope

I think there are a few reasons behind the Immortals' good track record. Scratch usually plays them and he's a good commander, and the Phalanx shields are actually noticeably effective.

So what happens? Do people just forget that shooting directly at the shields is a terrible idea?

Of course it's a terrible idea, and people have tried shooting from the side or behind to get around them (literally). But sometimes, whether due to insufficient move or physical obstacles, that ends up not possible and taking the direct shot is the only option.

Your floor doesn't seem conducive to flanking maneuvers.
