"Double dot" attack

By: misar82 | Average Rating: 3.86 | Game version: PCM12
This tactic works quite well when the last 15 km or so of the stage are hilly, either finshing uphill or downhill. It works in hard mode and lower, donĀ“t know about extreme.
For this to work,you need your leader for the stage to have at least 72-73 stats in hills and decent endurance, and the same goes for your main helper.

1. At the start of the stage, protect both your leader and main helper, and keep your next 2 best riders from doing any extra effort. The remaining 2-3 riders should focus on helping the peloton control the breakaways and get water,

2. In tthe last 30 km or so get your leader, main helper, and next 2 best riders to position near the front of the pack. If you do it later it might cost them more effort as the pack will be flying by then.

3. In the last 15 km or so, get your next 2 best riders to protect your leader and main helper, then use the dot at 85 for leader and main helper. Get the main helper to start the dot a little earlier than the leader, so it is the leader that follows, otherwise you might find your main helper left behind too soon.

4. When the yellow bar of the 2 riders protecting is empty, get your main helper to protect your leader and keep the 85 dot until the last km. By then, the pack will be already lagging behind or about to. The stage favourites will not respond to your dot efforts, since it is not an attack; instead they will hope that the pack will catch up with you - but at this point riders in the pack cannot cope with your rythm, so your leader will get enough advantage to get to the finish alone and avoid the sprinters.
5, In the last km, get your leader to sprint at maximum effort and enjoy the stage win Smile

Yeah, it's not 100% failproof. But it has helped me, for example, to win Milano-San Remo a few times when I knew my leader would not stand a chance in a sprint finish.

is this a tactic or just a basic "how to play the game" kinda thing? i didnt realize moving your leader forward up the hill was a tip that needed to be said.....

This tactic doesnt work that well in PCM13, not saying its useless but it doesnt shine as it did in previous editions
