I almost joined to fight with you all till i heard about your TACTICS and then witnessed it for myself and lost all respect for you group.
I assume you are talking about Tadsamesh, Merc team was in front of the village, on the hill then pulled the enemy to attacker spawn and fought in front of the spawn to prevent defenders from looting the equipment on the floor. Nobody fought behind the invisible wall (I quit the battle in halfway I had an appointment) But if you have evidence, please report it to developers. If you can get people from EU mercenaries please encourage them to testify. Even if it did happen, were they mercenaries (as a clan) or people from other factions. Don't forget there are only 15 people from the clan Mercenaries, we cannot be blamed if some random people are doing bullshit. Call and admin (please) and request a ban, even if it is my own clan member I will support you.I believe what I see myself and I've yet to see mercs abusing shit in strat. Kudos to them.
Lets talk about those tactics,
Which Merc you can point that attack from inside of a fief? none, and yeah people attacked us like that and I reported to developers.
Which Merc declared war on someone or suggested a clan to invade someones claim? none
When Mercs bought people to waste tickets? never, yesterday I watched NA players wasting attacker tickets. They were either really bad players or they've been bribed (lvl 30 NA mercenary with 40 ping -1K:11 death)
and you don't want to know (and you won't) who suggested us to expand to ATS lands in the north (which is the most stupid thing I ever heard) One thing you should know about Strategus is, don't believe everything you hear. Don't believe what I say too, I might be lying or telling the truth.

Report them, give me the name of the Merc who commanded this and you have my %100 support to punish them.Umm. I said "I have yet to see" which means I haven't seen any mercs abuse anything in strat yet. That was my whole point.

TL;DR: Lets not turn this into an EU vs NA flamefest there have been good and bad showings from players from both sides thus far.
True, but NA and EU has to split into separate continents. We are torturing each other here. I'm forcing BRD to fight in EU times and they are doing the same to us, this is seriously damaging the social lives of clan leaders. I'm bored of staying up all night and waking up in early hours with few hours of sleep to make sure everything is under control. No need to mention the coffee machine behind the computer tower, stacks of tuna cans next to the keyboard and the worst part : very angry partner at home. No matter the grudge in the game, last thing I'd want would be damaging the lives of players I'm fighting against.
Tons of people in NE told me about how you fight so i went to go see for myself (i didn't believe them for the longest time and supported you for fighting against brd) as i say again and will trust with what i saw which was shocking and disgusted me at what i witnessed.

I cant give you names obviously as i was participating and i couldnt kill the people behind the wall, but i can assure you you had at least 3 archers behind it for a long while, who probably only came out from behind it becuase they ran out of arrows.
I ain't a troll, i barely talk ingame. But why is everyone who was at the battle that isn't a merc saying i'm right on this?
Yeah you are, thrash talking to us etc. even the people I fought yesterday disagreeing with you. I really doubt your intentions here, there is a "Troll A Merc" topic. Please unleash all of your filth in there. If you'll excuse me I have battles to plan and I don't have time for your nonsense. If you were unable to understand that we were keeping BRD away from the loot on the ground, I suggest you to burn your primary school certificate, if you have one of course.Yeah planning to camp your spawn takes a lot of thought every battle.

Oh - and those battle plans? They look great, and it would've been fantastic if you actually put them to use, but instead you sat and camped on the hill.
If by epic fight you mean surfing the web for 1hr waiting for the merc team to get some balls and attack the village, then I've had enough, sorry :) Trying to bore the enemy to death while half your team hides behind the invisible barrier, is not a tactic. You made like four gutsy attacks then wimped out the rest of the game, making the defenders have to come out and attack your (uncappable) spawn because you weren't man enough to lose a real fight. And still lost (granted, largely from the ping).
Epic fight YOU ALL DONT wanna miss, trust me.
Very good gear, good tactis and a fun match to play.
Allso now you get ALOT of XP :) so Join us in the fight against the untrustworthy BRD
Chaos rolls people with their own ping, I can hardly blame the Merc team for not wanting to instantly charge in and instead pew pew for a bit to soften up the enemy given the abysmal ping that they had.
As for the "lot of xp" comment, does strat give xp? I never recieved any for any of my battles :/
Ironic that you say that..... The Mercs took a big shit on the BRD thread after your first few victories... Pages of nonsense and trolling.

Yeah, you will get a lot of XP, because the battle will last almost 2 hours :) But I can make more on a battle server, sorry.

I'd just like to say that Kesh plays some great music:

:). Don't know how you found my video. Thanks though.
That is quite the mental picture you just painted. :lol:
In any case, I agree with you.
First you are a noob, let me write that first. If you still didn't figure out that you get no XP atm I cannot help you. I highly doubt if you were in the first Strat, some battles took 3-4 hours and if you were playing the first strategus you sound like you got Alzheimer's disease.You have no argument so you substitute strawman, nice. Let me proceed to put this post through a paper shredder, then burn it into tiny ashes.
Second many people here approve that spawn was behind that invisible thing but Mercs did not abuse it. Why the fuck would I bother with siege shields then? go cry to devs about it. Seems like ATS guys are slightly deluded, don't sign up for the late night battles man its obviously not good for you.
See alsoYou actually found the true reference to why I chose this name. Congrats! Not many do. It was a kingdom similar to most middle ages middle eastern cultures. My character is based on the Keshian Dog Soldiers, which were like the real foreign legion, scrappy desert fighters in Algeria. Had a 2 man clan called Keshian Dog Soldiers when I first started old strategus, when I merged with Bridgeburners I changed my character's name to keep the spirit of the clan alive.(click to show/hide)
Mercs positioned many archers behind the invisible barrier, making them impossible to reach. I don't know if this was spontaneous or by design, but it happened. Several times a large group would go outside the barrier, then run back towards their untouchable archers when the defenders came to attack :rolleyes:This just isn't true. As posted above, the only time I as an archer was shooting from behind the invisible wall was at the end when you had us pushed way up against the wall and I died. I posted the details above. Aside from such single occurrences of archers spawning mid-skirmish, the entire team was outside the wall the entire time.

What did happen repeatedly was that archers were standing up against the invisible wall. This meant you could not backstab them, but they were reachable by following the wall.
I have no interest in protecting the Mercs, and I've put myself out there as the "bad guy" by admitting to doing it. I think that lends me credibility. Please stop spreading misinformation.
Noctivagant: IMO you guys should really broker some sort of ceasefire. If the war has basically turned into drudgery there really isn't any point in fighting it.
Sorry for missing your defense battle after, I hadn't set the time in the cRPG website settings, so I thought the battle was 2 hours later.
There were plenty of long spears that would randomly coming poking out while the spearman stayed safely behind till our numbers in the charge reduced.
Our plan obviously wasn't taking that village.Quoted for nonsense.
you had the greatest warrior ever to defend your spawn though... Invisible wall wasnt about to let any attackers cap his spawn.
you daft, there's something called a spawn that we must stop the enemy from capturing... :rolleyes:Behind an invisable wall?
all you do is camp your spawn.
Dunno how you can complain about lack of sleep or spending to much time on these fights when it's you casuing the long battles.

Grow something? maybe a pair and fight. I've been in defence, attack, NA, and EU battles with you and all you do is camp your spawn. It's your own fault.
Finally got around to reading most of this thread. I was reluctant to post because of all the flaming and trolling.
Let me make this clear: i do not want any fights with any NA guys.
The high latency and akward timeslots are sucking all the fun out of the game. Every fight is either a no-show, a fight versus nakeds, a spawnrape or, if we get really lucky, 'only' a lagfest. I don't think anybody is gaining anything from this...
So, like Shik wisely suggested: let's try to work something out, instead of trolling and flaming eachother. Strategus battles should be fun.
I think it would be better if NA guys fight NA guys and us EU guys get to fight other EU guys. That way, there will be more real battles, less lag and much more convenient timeslots.
I mean, come on guys, this is a game. Work this out instead of trolling and flaming eachother. Feel free to visit the Merc teamspeak anytime and if you can't find Ginger or Nocti or somehow need me to help out, please let me know. I'm always on irc and can come to teamspeak almost any time of the day.
Thanks for reading this guys.
