I try to get on every night and play wherever the big battle is.
Have to admit though its tough to find a fight when the TR are being kicked out of every continent like we seemed to be last night around 9pm EST.

Tigersmith, I gotta hook up with you guys more. The other night was just a lot of fun.

Pft, last night sucked for all I think. It was the old 3-way lock down on NW Ishundar.

I've been around, in and out. Just started talking on these forums though...

I don't see what everyone's problem with it is.

The gen is basically a second CC as far as tactics go, you have to defend both or you'll lose the base. I've never been pissed when the other empire blows our gen and we can't spawn anymore, probably because I'm always on offense.

I have no idea why, but I just don't see a purpose in defending a base that's going to be lost anyway.

Because you might actually win. I've been in some pretty incredible battles that revolved around a well-defended base. Fully half of those times, I was a defender. Fully half of those times, I was an aggressor. Sometimes we lost the base after a stiff defense, and sometimes we never managed to get completely in.

Recently I partook in a fight, 31 July 2011 through the wee-hours of the morning into 01 August 2011, at Faro on Cyssor that included, after about four hours of fighting (I shit you not), three separate runs on the generator and about an hour spent trying to infiltrate into the gen. We dropped that generator twice, and still couldn't crack the base. They had an overwhelming response complete with repair teams. It was bad-ass. That was a great fucking fight. NC did a great job that night.

I'm gonna have to call bullshit on this part right here.

The NC are a bunch of dumbfucks who wouldn't know the difference between an apple and a green pepper if the even dumber CR5's didn't tell them to zerg it.

I suppose it's possible organized outfits were behind it, but the NC are still fuckheads.

Anyway, I defended Vidar today for about an hour, and just ended up getting pissed off at retards who would watch me rez a MAX and then stand in the doorway so we couldn't get back inside as we both got shot at.

Maybe I need more patience, but for now I'm staying in my caves.

Easy there Furret..

Some great fighting over the last couple of nights. Glad to be a part of it, even if the rest of my outfit is playing virtual legos on a Minecraft server.


Yes, I called YOU guys out.

I've always been confused as to why people don't want to fight in a game about fighting. Most people left in the game just look for the quickest way to end the fight.

Back in the day on Emerald, the VS always used a lot of Maxes, but excessive plasma spam and gen drops weren't that common. Raising BR to 23 and making unimax a cert (buy 2 get 3rd free) saw a big jump in Max use on all empires. Then came the Markov merge... gen drops and plasma were now starting to be a great annoyance. Finally Werner joined and you couldn't go anywhere without seeing the green stuff
