Deutsches Forum / Re: Fragen zu With Fire and Sword

Mir geht es dabei gar nicht um die Schusswaffen, damit kann ich leben. Es ist halt einerseits das Setting der SP-Kampagne, das mich überhaupt nicht anspricht. Außerdem finde ich, dass man vom Gameplay her ruhig noch ein wenig mehr hätte draufpacken können. Es gibt ein paar (oder Paar?) neue <quests, aber im Großen und Ganzen war's dann schon

Und ein bisschen mehr als der übliche community mod (soll heißen: neue Skins, map, Rüstungen, ggf. animationen, etc) ist das schon, so wie ich das mitgekriegt habe.

Mit der Betonung auf ein bisschen . Hab's mir gekauft und ärger' mich jetzt tierisch drüber. Ich hoffe, dass die Community zumindest noch ein bißchen aus dem MP-Modus macht, ansonsten wird's bei mir im Schrank wohl Staub fangen...

I resent this, unless you mean in terms of gameplay advantage

No offence meant, dude.  It's all about gameplay. Those Samurai/Ninja guys with their fast swords are a real pain in my (Shielder-)ass....

Good luck with this new clan. It surely fits better in than the Samurais. I'm looking forward to seeing you wearing your new gear. Let's hope you won't go bankrupt from the upkeep of your Cataphrakts.... 

BTW, will there be a new clan-tag?

Exakt. Du benötigst lediglich einen Hauptcharakter und nen riesigen Batzen Geld um auf dem Marktplatz mitmischen zu können 

Merciless

Und fang' nicht an zu jammern, wenn du durch den Upkeep für dein teures neues Schwert bankrott gehst. Hab bislang noch nicht selbst gehandelt, aber wenn ich im TS so höre, was für Summen teilweise hin- und herwandern, wird mir schwindlig...

Diplomacy / Re: And finally people show their true colors.

I'm sorry if you feel that the Mercs have not been nice to you on the forum, but you can probably understand some of the anger. Don't base your impression of our clan on the posts of only a few. They're a brash bunch with some very vocal and outspoken guys that, perhaps, don't have a talent for nuance. 

Well I have no problem with ppl "not being nice on the forum", there's always a certain amount of trolling and sabre rattling in forums like this, but I had gotten the impression that thinks would kind of escalate here.

Of course there are different characters within a clan, just remember that Mega/Rogue issue some posts before...

This keeps popping up, and it's a retarded argument. Yes, their clan name is Mercenaries. Yes, they hold land. Why do people have to bitch about it? Jealousy? It's how they choose to play, deal w/ it.

Well as said before, it's a game...

Perhaps my memory is faulty, but i don't recall any 'roster griefing' in the old Strategus, nor do i remember any clans to be forced to fight 11 hours straight (to be fair, we did have two 30 minute breaks). But the time span (21:00 untill about 08:00  ) was a bit excessive, as i'm sure you all agree. 

I, for one, would love some limitations to what timeslots can be used, so clans aren't forced to fight at insane times that much. I hear that chadz might be working on that. So that's great news and i'm very happy about that!

I didn't participate in the 1st Strategus, but how has it been handled there (I mean the timeslot thing)? I benefit from the fact that I start to work nightshift today, so I'm probably the only one in the EU community who could afford sleeping until 3 P.M., but even I quit after the Khans' battle. My respect to anyone who did hold out longer.

Concerning vMega's post, I didn't know f any official agreement either. This isn't meant as an excuse or what ever, but I even retired on Tuesday so that I was only lvl 25 when fighting in the battles. They completely took my by surprise, too...

Rogue is in hospital vMega is making decisions ;) so probably everybody should have known what would happen :p

This came to mymind, too...

I'd like to thank everyone involved in last nights battles. The Mercs showes us what a determined, disciplined and good fighting village defender benefiting from terrain can do.

However, I'm really sad about people raging like mad in this thread. Why do people forget it's only a game? Now, RuConquista are attacking us without any DoW, so are they backstabbing us, too? So what? That's what this game is all about...

Diplomacy / Re: There was a village

« on: July 28, 2011, 02:43:42 am »

I have to admit that the "Asterix & Obelix" stories came to my mind, too, when I heard of the repeated attacks that were repulsed. However it seems that the last attack was f*cked up by the low spawn rate.
I wish our allies better luck with their next attack. Unfortunately I retired yesterday and am only lvl 22 atm, otherwise I would apply to support you

Strategus General Discussion / Re: No one has defended a village

« on: July 24, 2011, 11:41:32 pm »

I agree with Beans.
We made similar experiences up to now. The villages we took were defended bravely by many mercs while others are only scarcely defended.
However, I dont think that diplomacy is the main reason to blame. I heard many guys who blamed the lack of xp gain for it. If you support an attacker you can still improve your relations to the attacking clan, but supporting AI villagers will bring you nothing, especially if you could at the same time play CRPG grinding gold..

Strategus General Discussion / Re: Battles of The Abays!

« on: July 22, 2011, 12:39:27 pm »

TEBANDRA! I was there.

Although feeling somehow proud about being part of the first successful (NPC) village defence, I also feel sorry for Abays, who have clearly been betrayed by their mercs. It really was such a near run thing. With only 3 or 4 mercs more(or some 50 tickets more), Abbay should have won this.

Btw, is every attacker spawn now protected by an invisible wall? This already happened in our (HRE) attack on Rduna and it also happened at Tebandra. Without it, we would, at one point, have been able to take their spawn...
