In return, we provided the FCC with 11-15 players in 4-5 battles to make sure we remained neutral and on good terms.
After the FCC used Chaos to mediate a peace with the Mercs, they used the troops/gold supplied from the Mercs to attack the Northern Empire after ATS just finished a battle. Let it be known they cannot be trusted to honor or respect deals.
We do not believe we will lose this war, but we do believe it is necessary to warn guilds of backstabbing behavior.
Chaos cant be trust? What?
Most of you know the Northern Empire, we are not aggressive, nor wish to expand. We hold to our word. If you wish to help us, we cannot give you anything in return. The choice is yours. Anyone caught helping the FCC or the guilds attacking with be considered declaring war.

Freudian slips are always fun... :mrgreen:getting exiled is funner.
getting exiled is funner.
Bad English is funny too...badder enlgish?
getting exiled is funner.300k in Rebache is funnierer.
hehe still gotta fight me at every battle. Sure that will cost you more.
lol sell that to rest of the team and the scoreboard.
Because Strategus is the definition of Carebear, MAKE ALLIANCES LEFT AND RIGHT.
And then when some guy/clan decides to not be a fucking carebear treehugger "Oh no, he's a backstabber!"
Lol folks have fun :lol:Strat is so much more fun when everyone sits back and just collects troops, amirite? Not losing in the super serious medieval simulator is much more important than having fun!
Spiders always fight each other in closed space. I hope you know what I meant.
I also wish we could stop all the "backstabbing" whine. In Strategus, everyone talks to everyoneThis.
We do not believe we will lose this warLet's see what happens next and let your battle list talk for you. Good luck.
Lets try to enjoy it, we have many friends in NE, and if we have offended any, then I apologize, but strat is supposed to be fun...
Pretty sure this is a lie since you not only helped Shogunate plan to attack us and remove us from the map, but you also sent Goretooth with a 1k man army to play. You also paid the Fallen Brigade 300k strategus gold to not merc for us any more. Pretty sure those are all aggressive moves.
In other words, the only person who has proven time and time again they can't be trusted, is you.
Pretty sure.
300k strategus gold to not merc for us any more.Not what the money was for.
I have a hunch the NE or individual factions within, would eventually be aggressors on a military campaign...Although I'd rather see us "Northern" factions (northern on the strat map) taking the fight to those to our south...Duly noted, thank you for the headsup and preparation time.

Why do you gotta tell Tears my plan to destroy him and take all of Fallens territory single handedly.Why is there no upvote on this forum?!
sorry TS, I figure I throw Tears a bone and he'll spread em for me
That being said, Fallen is a big faction on the strat map, as are Hospitallers and our allies. You'd be a fool not to already be preparing to defend yourselves. Yeah, I went there! :)
Historicaly (i mean from last strat) Eastern Tsardom was vassals of Fallen, no?
About Hospitalers, if i remember they were eradicate from the map by fallen, so they may want to retaliate (they were smaller at that time).
Honestly, if ATS and TS and Hosp want to pick a fight with Fallen and HRE and the Khans, then I am ok with that 2-1 ratio I will enjoy, as well as us being able to attack them with our NA guys on their NA servers, and then defend with an EU server with our EU guys just to fuck with their pure NA roster. It would be amusing. Win or lose, there will be a lot of rage threads, and I get to fight in a real war!
Wars are so much more interesting then peace times, even if losing and not winning.
Huesby's posts are pure speculation, and he is not in a leadership role as he has admitted here.
How about we all say fuck it, and execute order 66 and see which faction is left standing out of the chaos?
They'll get involved at the end .. "again" :P (j/k)
There is an appalling amount of hugging and kissing going on between the rebel riffraff and the evil Empire. Did Luke ever hug the Emperor? No. Now quit doing so.
I sense excuses... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Vader in his black armor, read Goretooth, did. Does that count?We just need to make sure Goretooth keeps his helmet on or he might betray us...
Just know, my friends and honorable opponents, that the sWalker joins this fray soon...
oh, good.
We are playing a war game, there better be war.
More like Northern Empire vs FCC and a ton of vultures.
Hey hey hey now, TKoV is no vulture. :(
Future warning to all clans with 'knights' in thier name. U best change it to Bandit or Ex-Knight, or Risen from the grave knight, or Bridgeburning anarchist, Merc or something. Even Weaabo! :D Or else your turn will be up next! This is a bad boys world so you either start acting like it or start sucking up to em.

Fallen, LLJK, and a few more I'm sure.
Fallen, LLJK, and a few more I'm sure.This is less a matter of clans being vultures and more a measure of how many people find ATS annoying.
WIEGRAFS ILLUSTRIOUS AND INVINCIBLE HATCHET WIELDING CHINESE BANDIT ARMY OF DEATH is open to all bandits and ex-knights.
Anyone else able to make sense of this?

Remember they beat dfc in a *~fair fight~*
Veni, vidi, vici. We spawned, we marched, we steamrolled. It was as fair as the game mechanics would allow.
Just goes to show the double standard you employee, NE does it well it's "as fair as game mechanics would allow." Goons do it, it's exploiting and game breaking.

There is a difference between forming a shieldwall and cohesively marching towards the enemy and rushing with cavalry to cap the flag before the enemy spawns. We weren't rushing their spawn, we took our time and all of the dfc were spawned. There was no exploiting in place.
No. You know you are wrong. Even Ecko admits this. You and Hospergler_Husby must have a contest for being the densest posters in NE.

I admit the game mechanic is faulty. Nothing else. We did nothing wrong.
There is nothing wrong with ATS (or anyone) using bad game mechanics to their own advantage, anyone else would do the same in their position or are you tell me you would wait for all of the enemy to spawn and get organized so you can have a good HONOURABLE battle?
Northern Empire took the lead on the "lets call archers my old friends all day every day" when strat was down. This is called karma and a long time coming. Never forget.
The fun is in winning.
There is no satisfaction in using cheap tactics to win. Especially when it is quite obviously a broken game mechanic. I'd have 100000x more fun fighting a big battle than camping someone spawn and capturing it within a few minutes. But I guess some clans don't mind using cheap, broken tactics for the sake of winning at a computer game.He was trolling
He was trolling
Now that you admitted that, stop acting like you pulled off some great victory. You didn't. You rushed the spawn, just like we did in three battles.
Sigh i am embarassed for the internets.
This. The Fallen do not forget the endless insults heaped upon us simply for even joining a server or cleanly killing a guy, nor do they forget all of the "better watch yourselves" comments that pop up every now and then. Even if this is not the stance of your leaders, enough of your "common soldiers" have this stance that you don't make very safe neighbors.
Besides, we all love a good war.
Yes, that's why the Fallen are doing something now, because they would of surely done something when it was just FCC fighting and LLJK sending stacks up, right? You guys need to defend against server side insults so you would have surely attacked at this opportunity even before the massive stack of super clans that is against ATS added onto the FCC war, right? You wouldn't have left FCC out to dry, would you?:lol: I never said that was the sole reason. It is merely icing on the cake. :lol:
Let Loki do the propaganda spin next time, he's good at that.
Why can't all of LLJK be this witty!Because the universe would explode.

Some of you silly factions amuse me with all your talks of diplomacy and agreements. When you show weakness, you should expect to be swarmed and destroyed. Take advantage of every opportunity, leave no hole in your defense, learn to adapt to the world as it changes around you. If you are willing to have a massively inflated ego, defend it as the mercs did when they were attacked. This is the Calradia, there is no good and evil, right or wrong, there is only power and those to weak wield it. An average serf from the Fallen Steppe would be better fit to rule an empire than some of you swine.
Thank you, Warcat.
I think people were beginning to forget who the Fallen are.
Now now, that may not have been Warcat. It could have easily been Village Elder or Merchant of Tulga, maybe even Tavern Keeper. Warcat loves his RP. :lol:
I can almost take your words as words of comfort sir... Dare I even say, wisdom?
Pfft no one needs a reason to wage a war here. If the other clans have a weakness, and you've bided your time and gained in strength both militarily and diplomatically, then there's only one obvious answer :wink:
A bake sale or food drive?
What i find funny is that everybody was telling in last strat that they will remember action of clans, drz was at war against fallen, pub crawl, templars, traitors and all the shit.
Finaly everybody attack the only clan who did not a fuckin thing in last strat!!
Backstab your opponents, attack everywhere, be without honor (or honour) and ppl will respect abd fear you.
Do nothing and show some weakness, you will be slaugthered!

You sir...are an idiot.
One thing that I still don't get though, is why no one has even been hired for the battles. Even in a lost cause I can't imagine ever doing anything other than fighting to the last man. Was actually looking forward to the fights againist TS last night. I remember when Templars were getting stomped on, they still hired a few random peasants to defend their villages for free.

Fallen, LLJK, and a few more I'm sure.
We held good relations with just about every clan nearby. We didn't pick sides during the mercs vs BRD when asked out of respect for both - and now we're getting attacked? lmao. Guess we'll pick a side next time and wipe out a faction. Screw honor and reputation right? Its always easier on the internet to ignore those.
NE wasn't a formidable foe before this mess started, we we're still building up, minding our own business, trying to re-claim what we had before the wipe.
Just my two cents, nothing about politics, just game mechanics.It has everything about politics; politics and diplomacy fails and successes are what sucked this massive clusterfuck of clans against the NE.
Once that became apparent it was only a matter of time before the surrounding clans jumped in to claim their slice of the pie.
Well in the case of the "Fallen" jumping on the bandwagon, it was mainly because of a drunkard blowing up at our diplomats with very interesting things to say.
Well it was probably a mistake for our leaders to send an army down to LLJK lands. It was another grievous error not to equip troops at rebache which left us vulnerable to more attacks when others noticed a hole in our territory.
Along with other mistakes I pointed out, we're just fucking ourselves over just as much as getting it from external forces. But that's something I have to deal with when I decided to put my loyalty with NE leadership.
I have a feeling that a lack of diplomacy and a concerted effort by our neighbors was also a big factor.
I may be mistaken in the timeline of things Husby but one of the higher ups either in the alliance leadership or ATS leadership thought it was a good idea to put most of their money into one army for one battle. When said battle was lost, a huge chunk of the gold went a long with it. It's why Kesh is covered in diamonds now.
FCC - Wanted a good fight for example
Fallen - Were tired of being told to watch their backs by members of NE and evidently of archer insults
DRZ - Not sure
LLJK - We have been at war them pretty much months before strat started and ATS actually came down to attack us when Shogunate and co tried to wipe us out.
So each clan or alliance has their own reasons for doing things, not just because they saw ATS/NE as weak before the attacks started. I would assume most people/clans saw ATS/NE as rather strong opponents to begin with.
What's even more hilarious/sad is that almost every major faction that moved against the NE was aware of this and which village it was.
Anyone hiring mercs?Yes we are, we could use a few good men to help finish the job against the NE.
Was more in jest...I'm staying til the bitter end. I'll worry about options after I have no home or officers leading me.
I have faith that your clan will survive your relocation.

NE mistake was that they wanted to be friendly to all neighboors. Claiming 15+ fiefs and trying to be friendly.
It's much easier to make friends and test each other's loyality having the same enemies and fighting by one side.
As for me I do not believe ppl who are trying to be neutral\friendly to all.
It's not SIMS it's Strategus. Bellum omnium contra omnes
