NC = Toast

Well the VS got togeather with the Republic today for a little tagteaming fun on Emerald. Though the pact has been dishonored somewhat, for the most part the allaiance has been a rousing success. As of right now the NC control two bases on all of Auraxis. I'd like to hear comments of what the NC think of such an idea, I noticed their numbers are dwindling a bit right now, perhaps because they have no where to go

Anyway, just curious what people think of two factions allying and what people thought of the way this one turned out.

I like it; people to fight.

If NC numbers keep shrinking, eh. I don't care. We'll be like the VS used to be, without the crap weapons.

I was there tonight. It was cool, specially on Hossin, where the VS had the most northern bases and the TR took the southern most bases. It worked out fairly well, even though there were a few jackasses, but what can you expect? Bottom line is: NC=Pwnd tonight. Its a shame we have to form an alliance to do it though!

I am glad we provide enough of a force that it requires two empires to beat us back.

Go us.

Don't pretend like this consipiracy has just begun, it's been going on for months! Now is just the first time it has borne fruits is all.

Was a different story on Konried. NC had like 6 locked continents tonight.

It doesn't take two empires to beat you, we've done it in the past without any alliance, alone.

Caspertoo · 2003-09-26, 07:21 AM

But just to play devils advocate, it may take two empires to beat the NC only because you guys ususally outnumber either of us 2 to 1. Thus TR and VS vs NC is equal numbers.

Assets

NC
Sparrow max, Vanguard, Jackhammer, Enforcer, and if done properly the phoenix.

TR
Striker, pounder max

VS
Lasher, Magmower, jump jets on max's.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how the NC have consistently gotten higher populations that the other two empires. Every one of those beats their competition by a mile, with the possible exception of the vanguard vs the magmower, i think the magmower is better.

I play TR and I'm happy with it, but I definently think there are some out of balance things on the NC side.

Rightwing · 2003-09-26, 07:23 AM

Once the balance pass goes public, it should fix some of these things.

STEALTHKILLER · 2003-09-26, 07:27 AM

yeah verman your right, but at around 7:00 P.M. last night the 1 of the cr5's said that the vs had no attention of attaking the tr 2 the north of us on amerish. it proves that the vs and tr have an aliance, but it takes both empires 2 take us out.

*sings*

I love quoting myself.

You also have many more empire specific assets than TR or VS do.

I can't speak for anybody else, but it's been actually fun having to fight tooth and nail for our home continents. I was actually beginning to consider not resubscribing because of the lack of good fights lately. Before, we would have to go invade other continents where we'd either find no resistance or the enemy zerg.

Now, the great battles come to us where we don't have to worry about people abandoning the fight because it's our home continent. I'm sure if the trend continues it might be demoralizing for our side, but it sure makes for a nice change of pace. Kudos to the TR and VS.

SilverLord · 2003-09-26, 08:50 AM

I hope the TR is doing good, I haven't been able to log in for a long time...Having troubles wiuth my game...thi really sux.

Funny, VS/TR need an alliance to beat us.

Actually, it's not funny, it' just pathetic.

Note to self: When the TR/VS alliance breaks down, as it surely will, and they go back to having their asses handed to them on a nightly basis be sure to create threads gloating about i...errrr I mean "asking how they feel about it".

P.S. You posted after midnight, the number always start to dwindle about that time

P.P.S. The above post is not to be taken seriously and is what's reffered to in some circles as a "joke"
