Hospitallers will have my Sword through the war! Since Remnants decided to drop me from their roster against VE earlier, bastards.
so i take it FCC still wont fight TkoV even if their close friends(?) Remnants got attacked, instead it goes by plan.
... the last chance for freedom failed ... FailCC
devide and conquer
- community
- map
- enemies
was it all just a smoke&mirrow action?
and what are Hopitallers&friends(?) doing? Fighting in their own territory? Defending instead of conquering, at some point you need to get down from your walls and counter attack or the waves of incoming forces will never stop.
(just a bit heating up the game hear :oops: )
go worry about EU.Indeed i totally agree with you, it wouldn't make any other sense as the way you do it already!
And clearly it would make tons of sense for FCC to attack VE while the majority of our forces are currently engaged in hosp lands >.> cause y'know even ignoring every other factor... it would totally make sense for us to fight VE on one side and hosp on the other.
In any other wargame, i could never take the majority of my forces to only one far away place without having major diplomatic connections to my surrounding parties, which is not the way you like to be seen framed in the overall discourse here on the forums. The way you want to be seen is the singled out lonesome hero taking on the big guys.
like i said. worry about EU. you keep talking like you understand how things are on NA, but you really don't. Either that or you are just doing a really shitty and obvious job of trying to pressure us into doing something retarded.well i am wondering about things not pressuring you into anything, not like i said "worry about TkoV and attack them, don't you dare form an opinion about EU ^^", it was more in the sense that there has never been a hostile move between your factions, which is ok too. Don't get me wrong, having a stable trading partner is a nice thing to have, whereby i assume with the New TkoV holdings in the Desert they may consider to make majorly internal trades.
1. majority???that wasn't actual my statement
...while the majority of our forces are currently engaged in hosp lands...
... You should check out our fiefs sometime. We have 10,000 troops heavily armed on our border. No one attacked us because it would have been suicidetrue that, i missed out on that
4. You really really don't get what is going on because you only hear half the story from the people you trade with - i know you haven't talked to us or Remnant or many other factions that would actually give a clear picture allowing you to speculate properly.that's why i engage here as i don't know about everything and yes i do trade with those close to EU border but also with others, the NA trade is not the biggest income source of CFA but a stable one. Those in NA i do trade with know that i also trade with others in NA and they are aware that i don't make any differences with whom i trade in NA. If at some point Hospitallers would be taken out i intend to make trade with whomever would followed them, till then i still make trade with them nothing nasty about that, same as FCC/TkoV trade as we established in an earlier discussion.
Not that it matters but Remnant is doing this on their own. The remnant strategy is beyond my comprehension but that is just how it goes.
FCC has a war. We also have hero party attacking bird clan again to deal with. Pretty sure we have enough on our plates for the moment.
just practical sense.
It would have been great to use superior forces to push them back or possibly even mount a counter attack, but the fact remains that we were still reeling from previous wars and just beginning to run regular trades again. By the time FCC and Fallen jumped on the bandwagon, our armies were just starting to see basic armaments and minimal upkeep. Proof of this is seen in our battles where we have had to fight with minimal gear. The majority of which has been broken from previous battles.
Btw: stopped reading Kinngrimms posts. Probably not alone in that.
Holy fuck. Just wipe the fucking cheeto dust off your keyboards and enjoy a battle.
You can say what you want, but fact is, the moment we threatened war, all your troops were pulled out of your fiefs. Up till then, there had always been 3k in Unuzdaq and 3k in Halmarr. I just find it funny that remnant talks so much shit despite not ever actually doing anything of note in strat. First you guys picked up the scraps that the FCC left you with KUTT, now you go to attack a faction that has already been beat down by us, NH, and now the FCC. If you guys are so pro, why cant you fight your own battles? Yes, we lost too much in the Halmarr fight, i wasn't there so i cant say what went wrong, but shit happens, its one fight out of the 120 or so we have initiated this strat. The only thing you can brag about is how good you guys are in the battle servers, which isn't much of an accomplishment since id imagine most clans dont play seriously in pub servers. Hell, maybe you guys will prove me wrong in this upcoming siege, but i doubt it.
why cant you fight your own battles?
Don't want to get involved in this argument but I'd probably say TkoV and MB are better than Remnants players overall so I don't see why you guys keep bringing player skill into the mix.(click to show/hide)
Not to offend you HoC guys.. but I think you know that you aren't 2handed heroes and prefer to work as a group for better or worse.
Working well as a group is both a force multiplier and a difficult skill in and of itself. I'd happily sign up HoC guys for any of my battles. Much more valuable than the ticket wasting heroes who run off to fight and can't seem to listen to orders.
I have to ask, where the hell are you guys getting your information? We never once went to Chevalier or Hero party trying to get them to attack you. We offered Occitan a few of your fiefs because they were trying to come back to NA and we wanted to support that, but only after we took them ourselves. Someone has been lying out of their ass to you though, because we have hardly talked to hero party since the hospi war. Why the hell would we try to get Chevaliers to attack you while we were in the process of wiping them out? It just makes no sense. Tom says we tried to get 3 clans to attack you, Sauce says 2, can you guys get your information straight before posting? As to us "picking up the scraps" in the hospi war, i believe hero party fought what, 2-3 battles with hospi before we joined in? And even those were just caravan battles. We did the majority of the heavy lifting during that war, along with NH. Saying otherwise is just bullshit. Yes, you did throw the first punch, which is why its so odd to see you guys running from us with your tail between your legs.
And as to the bragging, i was referring to noodles post in your faction thread.
No reason to take things personally I say. It's just a game at the end of the day.
I can understand why Remnant is doing what they're doing, I think of this game like Risk. The steppe is a nice location, it's pretty fortified with natural boundaries, and has easy access to EU lands. The downfall is that you're in a lot of people's cross-hairs (tactically/strategically, not even bringing up reputation). FCC has left their far eastern castles and city and towns relatively unguarded and have spearheaded their forces to their western fiefs and sending out armies to our lands.
Nothing any factions are doing is really surprising to me at all, nor do I think it's shady or underhanded...the reality is what the reality is. Everyone's going to do what's in their best interests.
I just wish Strategus rewarded mechanics with more incentive for people to attack larger factions (or try to carve out a small piece of territory). There's quite a few fief-less factions, and there's quite a few small fief owning factions. These guys really don't have any incentive to try and expand or attack their neighbors because there's way more risk than potential payoff/reward for doing so.
For the most part battle lines are drawn as far as mercenaries go. If a small clan tried to attack FCC they would risk alienating their potential mercs for their battles by not only losing FCC, but losing Remnant and any other factions that FCC has influence on. Just as if Astralis were to have attack LLJK (then Bird clan's) castle in the desert they would likely have not only had a hard time filling their roster, they very likely could have wound up having other faction's jump in with material resources (armies) and come and wiped them out.
I'd like to see more incentive for people fighting battles in strategus (both the factions having some incentive for trying to take a fief as well as personal incentive for people to merc in those battles). Maybe getting c-rpg gold for fighting strat battles, or getting even more XP than now? Or maybe allowing people to transfer strat gold to c-rpg gold (without having to sell it)? I think you'd get more mercs and more people creating characters on the strat map.
Strat's not perfect, there shouldn't be any hard feelings when someone does something that's in their best interests and potentially fucks over another...but at the same time, maybe we can get some more of these factions who are sitting idle on the map to pull up their skirts and start trying to fight some battles and take over some fiefs. It's a war game after all, let's fight some battles (you won't lose any sleep if you end up losing a fief because you were too aggressive, and if you do, you should probably take a breather anyways).
I completely understand, and I've known this was very possible since the fiefs have been controlled on day 1. It's not hard to envision different scenarios based purely on land ownership (not even taking into account diplomacy).
But at the same time, you haven't relocated yet. You still have some battles on your hands. So as a wiser man once so eloquently put it "Bring it on and get fucked nerds"
Completely unrelated, Mason did you used to play CS:CZ?
With the Chevs it was not when you guys we're at war. This was way earlier when they we're a power. As for Hero Party, we talked to Smoothrich. As for Occitan, Arrowaine came to our ts himself and told us. As for the running away you insist and keeping alive, we have been moving out way before the war. Just because you see Sauce moving out when doenst mean we are running. Everyone else, including myself had been moved out of there weeks before you're attack. Sauce we the last one because he had to fiefs to run between and had the most stuff to evacuate. Keep saying we are running but this has been our relocation plan for quite some time now.
Oh you mean when you posted in our forums talking shit, saying yet again we are running and "scared" and then he replied with this?(click to show/hide)
So if by "shit talking" you mean he was retaliating to your comment, then ya, I guess noodles is a big meany.
K well first off, idk how you know my name XD. Second is that counter strike? lol
.......It's in your Forum Username........
Also, i think huseby knows your name because your forum profile name is "mmason94".....
Again, this makes no sense. We attacked chevaliers RIGHT after we made peace with hospi, i think we waited a week or so, so we could prepare, but there was no "way earlier" for us to talk to them about attacking you. I am literally talking to smooth as i type this post, and hes saying otherwise. We were getting bored as well, we were literally days away from attacking you guys when you attacked our caravan. We were looking forward to fighting a fun war, and the fact that you guys just straight up lied talking about how you were on your way to attack us, how this war would have a bunch of fun battles, hell i even talked to you tom, and again you just lied to my face. Im sure you can understand why we are more then annoyed at this.

In other news, What small factions are on strat?
DL (3)
Ildist group (4)
FPF (11)
Tuetonic (18)
Bird (10)
Kutt Remnants (22?)
HG (?)
Fidlgb (4)
Frisia (13)
SWF (8)
Jabonra(thought part of HP?) (3)
CHevalier (18)
Malta (13)
Holding a whopping 23 fiefs.(Bird fiefs being lost so this number is liable to go down.
Everyone else has the remaining...i think 100 fiefs it is.
You cant really base yourself on the ladder page to know the actual size of a strat faction, take Occitan as an example, we don't clean our member list that often and while it says we have 50+ members, we have at most 15 members online during prime time and as for strat, we probably don't have more than 20 members that are contributing to it with trades and shit and even less when it comes to apply for a battle which makes us more a medium faction than a big one.
Good job on the castle siege Remnants. I'm not happy we didn't hold the walls and especially the last gate house, but I think the biggest thing that tacked on to it was the spawn time. I'm very happy with the organization we had and the people who signed up to fight for us. Being able to have 5 different battalions working as a piece in the great unit was impressive.
Congrats on taking Sungetche, I will look forward to trying to retake my home land in the future. You should probably kill off the population because they are loyal to the one true God!
I love sieges. Fucking chaotic. We need to improve our engineers :P(click to show/hide)
the fact that you guys just straight up lied talking about how you were on your way to attack us
I said we were on our way to attack you because I knew you were stupid enough to believe it.
unfortunatly chesty when 2 or 3 of your guys send a steam message to me telling me to disregard what you just said nearly everytime you post, your words dont have much meaning. still a good troll though.
@Remnant
We say you ran because here we are, and you are nowhere to be found. A matter of perspective of course, and your excuse is perfectly valid for all but one reason. We figured after you "tactically moved" up north that you were playing smart and making us bring the fight up north. Then you attack hospitaller and we thought you guys just were giving up and going balls out wasting your gear on the clan no one likes.
But no, this seems more planned, like you wanted this war with hospitaller for a long time now. You have no doubt confirmed this in the thread. So how do you defeat a clan that wont fight you because they would rather waste their pixels on another clan? I guess if we can't have our war, the only logical thing is to make you lose yours.
There is just one question I have left though, if you werer going to leave the area why attack a caravan on its border?
Also Dach... your avatar disturbs me.... yet i cant stop staring at it in horror
8-) Try to imagine french kissing that! :lol: :P

You lost! And that's what happens when you unhire me!
tradenis is safely in our territory, he found a liking to drzs rage quit leaving massive amounts of S&D for him. you got 80k worth of rounceys and lost 5 fiefs, while he got a free trip to EU making well over 400k and we got 5 new fiefs. a fair trade I guess?
Not to mention Sauce's idea of diplomacy is insulting people who try to be diplomatic, and then taunting people and trolling them in game. Ahh yes, good times indeed.
You did a pretty good job at looking reckless, rogue and bold at first. But at the first sign of danger, you not only took off and basically handed over all of your fiefs to V.E, but you also decided to attack a weaker faction that's already under siege in hopes of getting a new home far away from those evil TKoV guys that you so daringly attacked in the first place. And people are upset with FCC for attacking "underdogs".
Who are you?
and... You cannot take what Sauce always says to heart. He is honestly... probably the most honest, down to earth, charismatic, top model, sexiest person in Remnant. Hop off his nuts. Not his fault you have Chlamydia.
I just want to call bullshit on Hospitallers trying to act like underdog - they now have 16,500 troops in their fiefs, in addition to the over 10K troops they have already lost in this war - thats 26,500 troops - we have never even come close to those numbers and we attacked them with only half our army (the rest is for homeguard as much as Hosps try to get people to attack us it would be kind of stupid).
Even with Remnant's armies attacking them they still outnumber the combined attacking armies of remnant and fcc. Every battle they have had equal gear to us. I know they prefer to fight in plate and consider anything less than plate armor as under-equipped therefore making them underdogs - but we always fight in what they call "minimal" gear. That doesn't make us an underdog. This is pretty much an equal fight - but we get better k/ds - which makes a big difference.
Also, every faction has the same trouble - we have a lot of inactives too and a bunch of people without strat ticks - we are smaller than Hosps and Occitan with active membership - and there is no way Remnant has 43 people active at this point - maybe 15?? at best making them a small faction against your much larger faction where you can recruit almost 27K troops - obviously more active members with strat ticks than both fcc and remnant combined. We have every active person recruiting troops and cant produce those kinds of numbers.
P.S. also, yeah Cyranule was trying to help you guys despite our objections. Really dropped the ball on that one.

Take your diabetes medication and calm yourself sweet child.
i dont even know what he got muted for this time. none of his recent posts seem bad.
I'm all out of insulin though, although you probably don't know what that is :cry:
Way to avoid the point though, you guys attack a faction and then run away when they come to fight you to go attack a faction that's pretty well getting slammed already.
You're a clan hiding under the skirts of the TAMDA, something I helped create. Why all the hostility here baby boy?

Ladies, Gentlemen, and everyone inbetween, Behold. Sauce, being the eloquent shenanigan instigator of the remnant masturbators, has decided to make yet another completely pointless, and incredibly irrelevant change of subject. You see, in the clouded minds of the delusional, butt-mongering Hordes of the Underdarktm, one might find the workings of a devious, if rather childish, and dressed in black plate, hamster, running on a poorly greased wheel, squealing out it's thoughts on subject matter with which it has neither the intelligence, or maturity to judge. Little spiked, black stahlhelm bobbing up and down as it expresses it's outrage and inadequacy with short, thinly veiled, insulting, and immature comments, attempting to demean others, but in doing so only exposing it's own regret.
Forsooth - Larry The Magical Cheetah
A 125 manned trader with 100 crates or less went through our territory during closed borders bearing the TKoV banner.
Nothing to really steal or conquer in this attack.
Previous to this, they tried to get 3 other clans to attack us, promising them land and gold. (Chavaliers, Occitan, and Hero Party.) Maybe even more that haven't come to us.
So instead of truly contacting us they said... "Retreat or War"
So we continued and then went on with our plans that were in the works for over a month.
Hey remnant dudes, I've got a question for you since all my information on the subject is hearsay, and shitty hearsay at that.
Did you guys initiate hostility towards VE or did they? I have to say, if you straight attacked VE, that was quite a silly decision. Hobb's fucking genius at strat imo, and they have a well-oiled machine over there. Nobody could fight them 1v1 except for FCC with all its resources dedicated to only that.(click to show/hide)
I attacked them. We knew they were planning to attack us and wanted to kick start things. Hobb drools when he talks because he doesn't know how to breath out his nose.

Addition: we allow, actually encourage "hostile" talk - drag it to the mud, no problem, but stay "in character" - it's your characters having a fight, not your real persons.
