NE are pushhovers? Theyre just giving away free villages hmmm..... atleast the AI put up a better fight than them plus they should atleast show up for their own battles even if they dont have any gear, they should put up a fight and die a hero instead of surrendering like a coward (coming from a Fallen that probably hurts :lol: ).... Because right now we are getting free villages, anyways Thanks for the FREE fiefs. BTW good job hospitalitars atleast you fight unlike the rest <3
-
I can't believe they are just giving away all their stuff. Sorta sad. I can't believe they seem to have even sold a castle to the Mercs. I mean really they are just giving their stuff away they are paying money for free stuff.
-
I have to say at least Hospitallers showed up in peasant gear against the DRZ and it looks like they hired people for the 2 village defenses later tonight. Should be fun: Make sure to apply for the xKhans side (FCC allies) and TKOV's side (FCC allies). Thanks guys for being willing to put up a fight - shows some balls.
-
Hospitaller are atleast signing up and I respect them for that. As for ATS, they have yet to show up.
-
Some of us attended the DRZ <> Hospitaller village battle. As for the latter, well, time do flies sometimes

Gawin, please leave the trolling to the professionals.
Thanks...

Lol

Lol
So how's being exiled?
-
I was in an FCC vs ATS battle a day or two ago. It was pretty fun. However, we have superior numbers and equipment so the outcome was as expected. Though for a team with few visible archers, Silveredge sure as hell managed to bring me down a hell of a lot
-
I love. I get to merc for anyone I want now
-
Did I just witness Lorn be the voice of reason in a ATS/NE hate thread?
-
Hospitaller are atleast signing up and I respect them for that. As for ATS, they have yet to show up.
To show up with naked peasants? No thanks.
I don't mind showing up outnumbered and outmatched and taking down as many as I can. But I'm not leading naked peasants into battle, sorry.
-
Did I just witness Lorn be the voice of reason in a ATS/NE hate thread?
Yup. I do wish the Ne had a bit more gold though, I was expecting a bunch of small skirmishes not a walk into town. :/

You would know :twisted:

You would know :twisted:
In that case, feeling exiled is akin to being among friends and watching the villages of your enemy burn...
BRB, gonna do everyone a favor and exile them too!

Tears must be happy now that he has more troll friends to play with in the Brigade.

Is that why you mounted that poor randomer and then killed her, for the "reactions?" You might be too twisted and evil even for the fallen. :shock: :?

I almost forgot about that!

OMG! i hate you guys and i said DISMOUNT!!! like i kill her horsie and killed her with a scythe
-
I think everyone else heard you say that you "mounted her and then killed her". No need to try to change the facts now.
To show up with naked peasants? No thanks.

Much as I hate to say anything to potentially add to their massive ego, but when mercs got attacked, their naked villagers put up a good fight. Even with a Warbow it took me 2-3 shots to take those bastards down.
-
OMG! i hate you guys and i said DISMOUNT!!! like i kill her horsie and killed her with a scythe
Scythe? It was a dagger!
A loooong dagger for that matter!!! :lol: :lol: :rolleyes:

Obviously ATS is in the planning stages of a new conquest. The forums were their intended target this entire time. Soon Ecko will show up to get the last word in and sign out with his signature thread lock.

Says in a hushed voice with a hint of awe:
What does it mean?
-
Anyone hiring mercs for battles? Im decent kinda.
-
We could use a Guardian ;)
-
Nice this merc stuff is fun and didnt think id get hired that fast
-
Come to the LLJK side of the force. You shall be welcomed as a brother.
-
you guys and your trolls.... sigh
-
Guardian got exiled? What did I miss while I was at work?
-
Goretooth I will let you be a page in BIRD CLAN.
You have to work your way up.

Come to the LLJK side of the force. You shall be welcomed as a brother.
He would be our champion neck-beard. Tempting, isn't it Goretooth?
-

Could be worse. Could have been the other way around.
Anyhow, what's with the whole "people should fight when I demand they do" thing? Is NE obligated to fight just because you asked rather impolitely?
-
Well, Ecko will be exiled to some random location on the map after 1 am cst tomorrow goretooth if it makes you feel any better.
-
This is kinda fun being surrounded on all sides. So whos down for a party at Yruma? >:D

I think it more so stems from the fact that your coalitions took so many territories and now that they are being attacked you refuse to defend them. I get that we caught you guys with your pants down so to speak, but to simply sit back and not even put up a fight simply because you know you can't win isn't very sporting. I can even udnerstand not wanting to show up to the field battles where it is 200 and 12, but have a battle where an attacking group of 1500 captures a village of near 1000 without a fight? Come on man, that's just no fun. :|
-
Well to be fair they could gear their towns they know they will lose in garbage and still take tickets down with them for pennies on the denar just to gouge their enemies and cause the foe to lose steam while you get on your feet for a real fight. However just handing us the fiefs and stuff doesn't cost us a penny so we get the fief lose no troops and just keep taking till we lose steam or the enemy is wiped out.

Hey man, dont give them the inside secrets to strategus. Let them keep their strategy of non-aggression in the middle of a war.

Kesh is vicious.

Kesh is vicious.
Maybe a little...
But I respect the Hospitallers for putting up a fight and not just giving up because they cant buy plate armor to fight with in all their remaining battles.
-
Just when you think the fallen cant get any shitter they start a thread like this haha
You guys are something else really.
When your finished with these guys attack some of the bigger clans see how you fair then.

We're massing our scythes and leather jerkins as we speak.

I don't understand where the part is where I give a fuck... :rolleyes:
We needed an opponent dead, and that is what is going on. Fighting people one-on-one has never been in our tactics, I thought you played on servers to understand that. If we don't do end-of-round duels, why exactly are you surprised that we are not fighting fair? I also don't remember the rule "respect thy enemy" especially considering the enemy does not respect us, nor have they ever.
You must be mistaking this for some other game, but to clarify: We are fighting a war, and we are still standing. We reserve the right to expect villages to actually defend themselves and try and worsen our losses, not say "damn, I give up." Don't defend? Well then expect to be laughed at. :rolleyes:
We have been fighting mercs and now NE. Remind me again what the Risen have been doing, and how much territory they have?
-
How did i know it would be you that replied first lol
Im not interested in why or who, im commenting on the fact your making shit cunt threads like your destroying some powerful force.
Like i said before attack some bigger clans and then start making comments, but i think you will just sit there thinking you have hard earned your fiefs : )

I see you failed to read the opening post. This is not us saying "we are destroying an all powerfull force" this thread is saying "almost no one is even trying to bleed us and is literally rolling over to die without a fight."

BTW NE is SUPPOSE to be one of the larger factions in this game, and to see them not even TRY to put up a fight makes me sad, thats the only reason i made this, and to troll xD
-
and to troll xD
mfw
-
shit cunt thread is shit cunt.
Mercs proved that a naked force can inflict heavy casualties on a better geared force.
BRD and Co proved that peasant gear can inflict heavy casualties on a better geared force.
If our opponents are not even trying, then why exactly should we respect them?
This thread is calling them pushovers because they are acting like push overs. Defend yourselves or you are push overs. No one is asking them to win this war, we are merely saying "man the fuck up and stop being push overs."
What part of this distain do you not understand?
This is a thead calling the NE folks on being pushovers because they are acting like pushovers. If they were actually defending everything, then I would call this a "shit cunt thread
-
Which part of Gawins post is implying its the opinion of the whole Brigade?
Gawin has a tendency to speak what he want when he want, but that doesn't mean everyone in the Brigade thinks that way.
Now stop shittalking us here in a public forum. If you have a real problem with us, contact us and speak with us about it, don't post shitty delusional stuff.

I guess Fallen are not fair ppl, it's well established fact, about being enemy of bigger clans, well, they were enemy of Templars at begining of first strat (which was the bigger faction at that time), at the end they were enemy of Drz and UIF block (which was the most powerful alliance and winner of last strat), they proved that they preferred to fight against real enemies...
But i agree, this thread is bullshit, it's easy to talk about a clan that was attacked by everyone.
The only thing I find unfortunate is that NE is given up so quickly, we have seen in the past (22nd), this is never done in Strategus, you can always come back.

Best thing said so far.
+1 to you sir.

The NE are obviously hording all their troops somewhere, for some "Final stand"
Should be fun,
They have not given up... you fools
-
Will be good to see if they hold up somewhere for one last stand.
-
Gawin - maybe it's better to lock this thread.
If you like to mock peole then fucking roleplay it. :wink:

What? No, we've totally thrown in the towel. No fight for you.
And Freland, if you bring more good RP back to this board, I will be your bestest friend.

So many NA vs NA battles wasted....
-
So much shit talk - I think you guys forgot the whole 10 factions coming down upon us.
As I've already written - I don't lead peasants into battle. To be honest, I'm laughing at the fact that you're getting little to no action. Serves you right for jumping on the bandwagon.
Why should we waste gold and equipment on lost-causes just to satisfy you, when we can invest them where we have a fighting chance? As so many players pointed out; Strat is about war... not slaughter.
NE is not wiped out yet, you'll have a big battle to fight if you want to completely wipe it off the map - that's why the villages are left undefended. I look forward to that defense if ever it happens.

I think what they are pointing out is that buying just basic equipment for the villages 500 population (4000 troops essentially of the ones uncontested) would not inhibit at all any defense of Yruma castle, but would ahve bled at least 1500 troops from the attacking forces making it harder to take yruma castle. Most other clans can still fight really well with average equipment. I appreciate the hospitallers for putting up a fight against tough odds.
To put things in perspective you are 5 clans (ATS, Eastern Tsardom, Hospitaller, Occitan, and Lost Legion), so it wasn't overwhelming odds (certainly no more then when we were facing RuConquista, Mercenaries, Bandits, ARNOR, Brothers in Arms, CotgS, and Wolves as well as having several large EU clans feeding Mercs troops (probably to see EU beat the NA in the only war going on, while our largest NA neighbor didnt give a single troop or offer any alliance, wanting strict neutrality). If we hadn't fought tooth and nail it would never have given Chaos the opportunity to join our cause and come to a peace treaty. By rolling over and dying you never allowed your enemies to weaken themselves to the point where hungry eyes on their borders started talking about joining the war on your side. You lost 2 major battles and ATS just gave up??? Of course no one wanted to join your side, what person would want an ally like that?

Told you guys,
They are hording troops and gold for a "Super Defense" of some village
There is probably going to be a battle upwards of 20k v 20k in the near future
-
Guys strat isn't anything like shield walling against pubbies on our community servers, this sucks!!!!
-
ATS aren't pushovers. While it may take SOME of the fun away from people who are attacking their territory, I can almost guarantee there's going to be some battle in the future that you're going to regret calling them pushovers.
Best of luck in your plans, ATS. You fight well, and I look forward to fighting you guys again, with or against :)

I wish I had been there for the beginning. Truly, I would have enjoyed leading & fighting the first two and inflicting more damage.
I will return the favor one day once we have regrouped and re-supplied. :P
-
I am just a little annoyed. Get outta fighting mercs at the hellish hours of the days and dealing with all that mess. See war with Na clan and then they don't even fight after first two battles which were easily the most fun strat battles I have been in ever v.v
-
Hey man, dont give them the inside secrets to strategus. Let them keep their strategy of non-aggression in the middle of a war.
Right, so you want us to divide our troops and equipment up so that we can put up a fight at each village? I sure as hell hope you're not involved in any strategic planning for your faction/clan/kingdom/alliance. Well considering you're an enemy, I do hope you're involved in strategic aspects of your armies movements.
To put things in perspective you are 5 clans (ATS, Eastern Tsardom, Hospitaller, Occitan, and Lost Legion)
ATS and Hospitallers are both pretty big. We have maybe 30 active people (at most) in Hospitallers, probably closer to 20. ATS is probably the biggest clan, I'm not sure how many people they have, but it's certainly under 75 or 100 (probably way overshooting there). Occitan and TS are both pretty small clans as well. I don't think we have the numbers that some other factions do (especially not when those factions have a 4 and 5 strong coalition with each element being as big as all of the northern empire).
so it wasn't overwhelming odds (certainly no more then when we were facing RuConquista, Mercenaries, Bandits, ARNOR, Brothers in Arms, CotgS, and Wolves as well as having several large EU clans feeding Mercs troops (probably to see EU beat the NA in the only war going on, while our largest NA neighbor didnt give a single troop or offer any alliance, wanting strict neutrality).
I wish we would have taken a stand for one side or the other...at least we'd have an ally in the fight. But I'm not part of diplomacy, I'm pretty new to strategus and the factions in it.
If we hadn't fought tooth and nail it would never have given Chaos the opportunity to join our cause and come to a peace treaty. By rolling over and dying you never allowed your enemies to weaken themselves to the point where hungry eyes on their borders started talking about joining the war on your side. You lost 2 major battles and ATS just gave up??? Of course no one wanted to join your side, what person would want an ally like that?
I don't think ATS gave up. After losing most of the troops and money they didn't have a choice to defend each village. If I was in a leadership role I would have been looking for allies (or at least to entice other clans) that are near our attacking enemies borders, that they could probably pick away at our enemies borders since they are engaged in our territory.
When you have 4 or 5 times as many enemies attacking your territory from all sides, you have to decide what is a priority. Keeping troops and money and equipment would be a pretty big priority to me. You might temporarily take a village, but our enemies are now overextending themselves, and leaving themselves open to their own rebellions.
-
Told you guys,

There is probably going to be a battle upwards of 20k v 20k in the near future
I have a feeling it's going to end like this (http://youtu.be/_6L8NFcMakk) (he's a Hospitaller).
-
Equipping all the troops in your fiefs with say scythes would cost next to nothing and would inflinct decent casualties to the enemy.
-
I heard after that last big battle ATS just bankrupted themselves, THey probably can't afford to equip themselves in black armor and becs to defend villages, let alone buy enough low tier weps to defend all of their villages.
Saving up and gathering fighting force is probably the wisest thing at this point.
All this business reminds me of this tbh....Though its barely relevant http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0Kq6qiuFTY

You might temporarily take a village, but our enemies are now overextending themselves, and leaving themselves open to their own rebellions.
I actually do a lot of equipment purchases and transfers and I can tell you that all you need is 5000 gold to equip a village enough to at least kill 1/4th their number with decent fighters. Do you really think the 5000 gold to buy 50 more light mail and plate will cause you to kill the at least 125 more your village could have killed? At least a dozen clan members have to have 5000 gold or more. 40,000 gold and no cost in troops would have gotten you over a thousand and as many as 2000 enemies killed and unable to attack Yruma castle.
hell, just look at the Radoghir castle fight, we had a 100 troops with 1000 gold worth of gear and killed more of the enemy than they killed of us despite their heavy armor, sniper xbows, and becs.
We are really not overextending ourselves since we have taken so few casualties, we have plenty of troops to fortify the villages (which might not have been true if they had been defended).
I like a lot of the guys in the Northern Empire so im not trying to be mean here, but seriously you guys need to rethink your command structure and how decisions are made in the clan, I would imagine most of the regular members would have loved to at least fight more than 2 maybe 3 battles, devil may care whether you win or lose.
-
Well I agree about the leadership shakeup. I've questioned a few decisions, and not going out to make external allies (or forming common bonds against enemies) was a pretty fatal error.
i still think one of the worst errors was letting fallen attack a village in our "claimed" territory and then repaying them troops to have them give it back. We had the troops and equipment to easily destroy the troops in the village early on.
Our empire could be way way way more organized when it comes to strategus troop/gold movements. I think a better interface would go a long way to helping organization as well. Hopefully the beta experience with bring some more knowledge to our leaders (as well as the developers).
-
Occitan and TS are both pretty small clans as well.
TS Pretty small ? You sir know your allies lol. I see more active TS players than Hospitallers. Pretty small should be 10ish players .. not 30+
To put things in perspective you are 5 clans (ATS, Eastern Tsardom, Hospitaller, Occitan, and Lost Legion), so it wasn't overwhelming odds (certainly no more then when we were facing RuConquista, Mercenaries, Bandits, ARNOR, Brothers in Arms, CotgS, and Wolves as well as having several large EU clans feeding Mercs troops (probably to see EU beat the NA in the only war going on, while our largest NA neighbor didnt give a single troop or offer any alliance, wanting strict neutrality).
By wanting strict neutrality you probably refer to the fact they weren't suposed to get involved in our battles, yet they'd go battle for Mercs and charge us 50k+ gold to switch side ? What kind of a neutrality is that :X
-
So much shit talk - I think you guys forgot the whole 10 factions coming down upon us.
Shut up. Seriously, stop trying to bring up numbers when your clan has already been part of a 10+ coalition to attack us. You can't cry about numbers when you have been part of a group that size yourself.

There better be an epic last stand in the works.
Yeah, you guys are outnumbered and outgunned, but that doesn't mean you go quietly. You could easily equip just the populations of your villages with scythes and axes and some shields, for like 1000 strat gold per 100 troops, and caused a decent amount of casualties. Where's the guerilla warfare? Where's the attrition? I'll admit that leaving villages completely undefended does mean that your aggressors will never get more than 100 population troops, whereas if they captured your spawn prematurely, they would have gotten more. I'm not at all convinced that was even the rationale, since nobody has brought it up yet. Also, you could have still assisted your last stand efforts by taking down as much of their standing army as you could with cheap equipment.
One major reason why so many 'vultures' have swooped in is because they sensed weakness. They want a free lunch, and that's exactly what you're giving them. At the very least, for the sake of NE reputation in future strat iterations, you should've made it clear that you would take as many foes as you could down with you. If there's not an epic last stand in the works, then you've only shot yourself in the foot for the next round of strategus, as the vultures may well descend upon you again, if they think you'll just roll over again.

One major reason why so many 'vultures' have swooped in is because they sensed weakness. They want a free lunch, and that's exactly what you're giving them. At the very least, for the sake of NE reputation in future strat iterations, you should've made it clear that you would take as many foes as you could down with you. If there's not an epic last stand in the works, then you've only shot yourself in the foot for the next round of strategus, as the vultures may well descend upon you again, if they think you'll just roll over again.

Well there's still a castle and a village that's one of the few most remote villages on the strat map. Take an educated guess (I know that might be asking a lot of some of you).

Both empty, and a 25K army led by a wild goretooth appears in the middle of our base at home!

I love. I get to merc for anyone I want now
By the way, thanks for all the gear. :wink:

Lol im out of town but ive been exiled by ecko and people are sending me troops?

I think he was being sarcastic, saying that he is expecting a counter-attack. If yruma and our last village are empty than I wouldn't cross your fingers for a last stand battle. I'm assuming otherwise, but who really knows any more (I'm only active every other couple days for 2 or 3 days at a time).
Why'd you get exiled goretooth?

Probably because it involved Fallen and co to say "Hey, let us join in on the fun" and started a chain reaction, one of which made the DRZ take a love interest in your lands.

Great excuse to get a 90+ member clan not counting close allies/vassals to change from neutral to warlike especially since you were already in the middle of a clusterfuck. Good job placing personal vendettas in front of the good of your clan and your alliance, and literally picking a fight with our diplomats while in an inebriated state.
You asked us to take a swing, and we swung.
Honestly, the NE probably could have held it's ground if it was just Chaos and the FCC and allies attacking, but dragging the Fallen and their allies and vassals into it and causing other chain reactions such as DRZ suddenly becoming best friends with multiple of your enemies and taking a few swings of their own... too much for the NE at the best of days, or any clan/alliance for that matter. Was it really worth it?
TL;DR version: Good job single handedly causing the destruction of the NE because you don't like how our captain sounds.

Haha that meeting was a few nights ago way after fallen got involved. Its not like I ever helped fallen in strat battles which I have a ton.

Yeah, and that meeting helped us go from "let us send a few raiding parties" to "Hey let us party in the center of NE land and convince others to do so too!"
But hey, you stood up for what you believe, rock on! *massive thumbs up!* You are a hell of a solider, you will merc on and be rich.

So much lying and hate from you lorn I mean tears. Not worth my time.

Aww how cute he called me lorn! <3
Well hell, enough of my slanderous lies! I speak enough venomous drivel, so how about I step aside and then you tell your story and the truth of why you were exiled?
