This BG is fairly hard to lead and takes alot of coordination and people knowing what they are doing but since it's new its often easy to win since most teams don't know what to do properly on this one. First of have your feral/warrior go arms/kitty if he has the proper gear for it. First of abit on linguistics: it's important that people know what you mean when you call for a certain cart, so say beforehand to your team that: Most left cart=top or water Middle cart=middle Right card=right or lava Respawn place of carts=spawn This might seem abit obvious but I can't tell how many times I have seen people go to the middle and fight there while the leader was calling the middle cart. In the start you start of by sending 1 person to the middle (horde) or top (alliance) and having all other 9 people go for lava cart, since the locations of the carts can vary randomly in RBG, you need to estimate if you can still cap a cart before it auto caps, this is a proces of trial and error and will take some time before you get a feeling for it. The goal of this BG is to always make sure you cap 2 carts while the enemy caps 1, preferably the top cart. The way you do this is by continuously fighting them 9v9 on a specific cart, wiping power really doesn't matter here, controlling of the carts is what matters. Always leave 1 person who can survive behind on a cart, this will tipically be your warrior/feral (even if he is arms/kitty). What you need to do is always make sure you are inside the carts range (rsham freedom totem & hpala freedoms are really good here) while making sure that your enemys arn't, classes with knockbacks/aoe cc (shamans, (r/b)druids, mages, warlocks and arms warriors are really good here). Try to get them splitted up on ress, dont kill their last few people untill the first people are (about to) ress. The most important thing here is capping the carts, not controlling them, 1 cap gives 150 points, which is more then all the points combined you get from controlling a cart. The shortest route from spawn-cap is the lava cart, so if possible make sure you get that one every time. There are levers to make the cart go a different route, but they are fairly useless, I suggest never really using them. You can try ninjacapping the enemy's cart only do this if the cart your trying to catch is like 3/4th along the way of being capped, this way you dont waste to much time if you fail and if you succeed its to late for the enemy to reinforce, but this is risky since it requires you to send 2 people away which you will not have later, also the 1 defender might be a very good player and be able to defend it by himself until it caps. So in general unless your really certain you can get it or are really desperate for that 1 cap, its probably not worth it.

Overall this is quite a hard BG to lead and it is very dependent on what the enemy does where you want to send your forces, just be careful and make sure people dont make silly mistakes and you should be fine.
