I look at the map lately, and the NC home conts are underatack, and maybe searhus if the NC happen to hold it, but no TR are caping bases on VS home conts, and the VS aren't caping any bases on TR home conts.

Its realy becomeing rediculous. I haven't seen Cyssor blue since the last patch.

OMFG, HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL THESE FUCKING NOOBS... THERE ARE NO EMPIRE ALLIANCES, IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN, IT WONT WORK! now go suck some CR5 dick you fucking moron

I'm not saying they are allied, I wish to say that we somehow became their favorite target.

Broadcast warp gates plan to fix this problem. It's just that when 1 of the empires attacks Cyssor they never do it @ the same time (as I've noticed) they come within Half an hour of one another and usually starts out as a squad n such. That best time to squash the party crasher before they can get any ground

Aye, and the majority of the posting there is whining and crying .. that's why we love our humble abode here.

No arguement there Peace, I hate fighting for Ish when Zerg hits. Like Manitou said, we can never muster the troops/commanders to accomplish the task. Let 'em have it for a while and then take it back when they go for greener pastures.

The defense must start early, and decisive action must be taken the second the call to defend is made.

The only problem with this is, every time someone notices a hack on a locked continent (IF they notice), the empire is already involved in heavy action on several continents if they aren't already defending against a double team.

That, and most of the "commanders" are trying to earn another armchair-commando victory and will most likely say "Let them get a foothold so we can sweep in and retake the continent and get good XP and the Daily Winner award that means so much to effectively three people". Or words to that effect, I admit I paraphrased.

More often than not, coming in after even ONE base has been taken will result in a drawing of forces that will sucker us into a split trap, like Ishundar where you have NC at the south and occasionally west, and VS at the north... or Forseral, where the directions and empires may change direction locations.

Part of the problem with fast response is that people are seldom ready to use the right tools for the job. If a continent is unlocked, it is time to break out the tanks, pin them in the base, then bring in the maxes and SA troopers. Most people want to just zerg with HA. The split trap can be avoided if the right tools are used.

9/10 times the first part of my defensive statement is filled by cr5s, at least for the NC. Most of the time other fights do not have to be broken up. If the first 15 VS or TR on a continent are stopped, then it is unlikely that a large or huge will follow them.

Firefly · 2004-03-08, 10:25 AM

You won't always find the quick reaction force on a continent, but when you do, they are generally tailor-made for such a job. At least, I hope the rest of the TR has seen and followed in the examples provided to them.

Probably not, though.
