Lately, there has been quite a controversy between the "FGvsFG community" and the "zerg community" (if you excuse the expression, I don't mean it in a derisive way). Being more a member of the former rather than the latter, my experience of zerg warfare is that compared to FGvsFG fights, all thoughts of tactics go out the window the moment a zerg encounters another zerg. Zerg participants seem to lack all kinds of teamwork and coordination, and the fight quickly seems to deteriorate into who can spam the most AE spells and leech the most RP. Rather, zerg tactics is on a higher level, i.e. where to move your force on the map, and not on a split-second tactical level.
Now, I am not trying to point out the weaknesses of zerg warfare, I am honestly curious about whether you think this is true. Are there any experienced "zerg leaders" (again, some bad connotations in that word, but I am not sure what the best alternative is) and do you employ any special tactics? For that matter, are there any guilds that have practiced playing in a larger force?
I realize that this thread might be akin to opening a can of worms, but I would like to see the other side of the coin; after all, large-scale RvR warfare is what Mythic seems to have primarily designed this game for.
