P.S. Though it was a bit petty, poor sportsmanship/loser mentality to reset the production points repeatedly. We gave you fun battles - just seemed a rather petty way to end a good siege. i thought better of you rhalzo, you disappoint me, I thought you were more mature than that.
Had a good fight at a good castle - almost or slightly over one to one k/d in 3 of the battles. Thanks for the fun and xp.

Last night was a really fun battle. Not because we won, but because of the old school FCC yolo squad.
We took over the highest keep, built a equip box and a healing tent there, then just kept shooting our arb's at your archer nest.
Cy, Matey, Gmno, Frodo.
Honestly, "salting the earth" by resetting PP is an interesting tactic. LET THEM TAKE THE BARREN FIELDS! THEY MAY GATHER THE HUSK OF WHAT WAS ONCE A GRAND TREASURE. WAR IS HELL. If it was done on purpose I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be breaking any rules...
But after spending resources to capture a fief, it kinda sucks to find out you got less than you bargained for.

Cy hacks. I got like 20 hits and 1 kill up there, Cy got like 12 hits 12 kills with 1wpf D: Great time though.
Thanks for the battles FIDL.
Damn i wish you had told me - I would have joined you with my arbalest :(
The battles have been really fun, Rhalzo. You've been a great ally throughout all of this, even helping us run our battles when we haven't really had our shit together at all in these last few battles. I'd go up in flames with players like you any day.
It probably wouldn't have made a difference for what it's worth.
It's also funny that Kesh is talking about sportsmanship when he/she will do anything to get an upperhand including item bombing, using duped gear, rigging enemy rosters, abusing night time settings, and everything else that is yet to be uncovered.
You know JC... if you want to accuse Kesh of shit, you could at least pick things he has done. He hasn't item bombed (at least since strat 2), he hasn't rigged enemy rosters and he hasn't fucked with night time settings.(click to show/hide)
It was an honor smashing the heads of FCC for you. I promise you that one day you will take your rightful seat once more as lord of Keleredan Castle.(click to show/hide)

Man, I look at that Titan and his ridiculous teeth, and it reminds me that every time I look at a child who hasn't lost their baby teeth, they've just got adult teeth in the cavities in their faces, waiting for the day they will be unleashed. tl;dr kids have teeth inside their faces, creepy.
I love the bull you are shoveling. That is not item bombing. If you could pull off a coordinated offensive and have the next person ready to go you could do it as well.
We apologize for not making it even easier for defense. It is a war game, go attack someone and do so however you wish to do it.
Occitan and friends showed that you can win a war on defense so it is not impossible like you are trying to make it seem.
So in your first pair of sentences you accuse me of spewing bullshit. You say I could do the same thing. You say it's not item bombing. What is it then? You're throwing items into someone's fief and intentionally trying to make sure they can't get those items out, all in a hope of making them suffer from a glitch that makes them not able to spawn necessary gear. You are bombing them with items. It may not be 10,000 rocks but you are still using items to cause a glitch in the game to disadvantage them.
The second pair you spew rubbish saying that anyone can use this tactic. Yes, anyone can do exploitative things--that doesn't mean everyone does or that they should. Ability doesn't give right.
Your third pair you accuse me of saying that I'm whining about failing on the defense. Dude, I'm not even on defense. My faction is in a castle right now.
Nowhere in there do you try to refute that what you're doing is intentionally a tactic exploiting the game to advantage you over other factions. That's the ultimate point of my post, and you did everything but address it. Standard FCC fashion of response right there.
We are attacking castles. Due to the timer it takes waves of attacks to take the place down. We attack in our themed gear.. when we lose the fight the enemy gets it. Try speaking with the devs about it. Till then we are fighting within the rules and giving the player base something to do. So now it is our fault we are giving the defense heavy yawshans to use.
Jesus... we are finishing off an enemy. Some of them could have gear or goods on them. Why would we let them get away.
1) GEAR is fucking expensive1) And money is about the easiest thing to earn. You are big enough to trade within yourself for insane amounts of profit. Frankly, for you, money should not matter.
2) if you dont atatck immediately afterwards they get all the gear out and fully equip new armies completely off your gear (as if defenders didn't have enough advantages) - hence defenders never have to waste money on gear and can buy troops or pay upkeep and self-sustain practically forever unless you have overwhelming force.
3) you also can trap gold in the fief - see 2
4) you can trap troops in the fief so they cant just take all the troops out and wait to see if its a raid or assault before putting troops back in, its away of forcing a committal (they get the benefit of thousands of population as if defenders didn't have enough advantages)
They are already finished (no offense FIDLGB). Sending hundred man armies half way across the world because they "might" have broken gear is pretty shitty considering you are the super power of strat. You have no legitimate need for that gear.
Once you get over a certain amount of crates it shows as zero. They could be walking away with 15,000 plus worth of goods. Regardless, scattering the routed army stops them from regrouping immediately in chaos fiefs to feed troops
4) Raiding only really makes sense if it's the first assault. You only raid in the hopes of having them waste troops they could later use to defend the fief. In the case of FIDLGB such a thing is completely unnecessary because they have 11 members to your 79.
Raiding makes little sense on the first attack. Generally speaking the defender will always win the first attack if they have gear and troops. So it would not mean anything to raid. Need to knock it down a bit and raid when you think you have a chance to beat the remaining troops.
In addition the repeated sieges of New Weyyah, New Ergellon, and even here at New Kelreden show that 9 times out of 10 the defenders remove all gear and troops successfully anyhow. Which means attacking on the tick as it were only makes you look like assholes.
So you are saying that your biggest complaint means nothing at all?
U MAD BRO? lol - so much frothing and shit-spewing between jesus and daruvian. Good thing you guys have absolutely no concept of how strategus works - you just look like idiots. Almost every multiple siege (and it has to be multiple waves of sieges because of how heavily this strategus favors defenders) the attackers attack immediately after both on NA and EU - so FCC kicks your allies ass and you start bitchin g and moaning that when FCC does it we are "exploiting" or "item-bombing" - you have to be joking - we have never item bombed this entire strategus. The reason atatckers have to do this is that:
1) GEAR is fucking expensive
2) if you dont atatck immediately afterwards they get all the gear out and fully equip new armies completely off your gear (as if defenders didn't have enough advantages) - hence defenders never have to waste money on gear and can buy troops or pay upkeep and self-sustain practically forever unless you have overwhelming force.

Daruvian - your faction has never assaulted a castle in your entire strat experience, we gave you rindyar - you wouldnt know the first thing about the difficulties tactically and strategically in taking a highly fortified fief with thousands of population and troops
Jesus - you got to be joking all he does is completely fail at castle sieges. So you guys talk all the shit youw ant but until you actually get some skill and intelligence your words have little to no weight - just more spewing forth of idiotic vitriol and propaganda that is you.
1) And money is about the easiest thing to earn. You are big enough to trade within yourself for insane amounts of profit. Frankly, for you, money should not matter.
Doesnt mean leaving them tons of money doesnt hurt us
2) I actually agree that defense is pretty OP, but you're the one that regularly stacks armies with a bunch of stuff they don't need in the hopes of item-bombing them.
Make more stuff up as someone who has never merced for us - we never do that - we just reuse gear we win from earlier fights
3) If you are really worried about gold then you're piss-poor traders. See 1.
See 1 - it matters how much gold the defenders get as I satted in my first post but you have never besieged a castle so you dont get it
4) Raiding only really makes sense if it's the first assault. You only raid in the hopes of having them waste troops they could later use to defend the fief. In the case of FIDLGB such a thing is completely unnecessary because they have 11 members to your 79.
Wow - just wow - raiding makes no sense in the first attack - you only do it when it can guarantee a awin hwhere you can keep your gear rather than lose it at the end of the fight - hence we raided kelredan castle and won that battle and out shiny army got to keep its gear and get more. If the guy atatcking hadn't been busy (real life matters) we would have raided emirin and would have won that last battle and gotten the gear as well - makes sense to do it. Why is it all the guys who have never had to attack a castle or city come onto the forums and talk shit like they have even the remotest idea of what they are talking about.
In addition the repeated sieges of New Weyyah, New Ergellon, and even here at New Kelreden show that 9 times out of 10 the defenders remove all gear and troops successfully anyhow Which means attacking on the tick as it were only makes you look like assholes.
Makes no logical sense that last one -since you just agreed that every faction does it so we are assholes because it usually fails but we shouldn't try anyway just because you don't want FCC to do it? So when your buddies occitan did it when they attacked villaeg repeatedly in the desert or vice versa with velucan empire it was okay - but you don't like us so its assholish. If it usually fails its not assholish and their gear has been fine in every battle - not really sure how you need to whine they lost on their own merit.
P.S. Do you not get that when 1 army with different gear from another army attacks each other - both side get leftover gear that is broken of multiple types and levels and have too many items - this is not item bombing, its called attacking - i seriously feel like i have to teach a 12 year old how to write his own name here (obviously not a very bright 12 yr old).

(we never have, we make about 4-5 million gold a week through trading)Right, K. Sure not letting the enemy get rich is cool, but you aren't broke and don't use that excuse.(See 2)

With the current setup traders can move 20-40K goods a week from their various fiefs in their faction and make millions. We need to change this now and seriously consider a strategus wipe with a more balanced economy (this would also fix the leftovers of an running dupe gear bug for a month whose gear was kept and used or sold).
This is why we can't have nice things.
