Some not-so-much-of-an oldmy old friend read this and raises his can of beer to say "Cheers"!
Yeah.
When I was just at the beginning of my c-rpg path, I joined EU3 for some practice.
- Wow, I feel like such a noob here, - I said.
- Native pro? - someone replied.
- No, - said Saracen_Bjordhinn (or something), - native pros can at least block.
I stared at my monitor in confusion...
That still hurts deep in my heart.(click to show/hide)
ok
Ahhhh Mount&Blade my first and only love such a great I had with you!
Wondered what happened to you :P
Hope all's well.
Before C-RPG I was like"I will never play any sort of MMO/online game ever"
after over 7k h later " I was wrong..... Worth it"
Even when I don't play crpg really anymore I meet some cool peoples there and I still play lots of shit ass fun games with Templars and Some N(e/o)rds.
I like most of peoples that I meet here even Panos(he is really cool dude when you get to know hime).
1) Did you kill your father?
2) How's internet in Dublin?
1) Did you kill your father?
No, why would I? He gave me a roof over my head, fed me, and paid for internet and eletricity so I could be a nerd in the first place.
This sounds like an interesting story, any thread I can go back to?
Better today than 2010....

Good read, reminded me of how I used to admire Gnjus when I first started playing.
I always like bringing up this picture looking back

In Swedish we say "Mars"....
Március?
I feel like I just walked into a retirement home filled with Vietnam War veterans reminiscing about their wartime stories. :PWith every kill you'll get better they sad, but it'll never be as it was before never! So much death so much violence!
What the fuck Macropus, you joined cRPG at that time? I was in Saracens too for some time at that point, after being a Fallen for almost 2 years and a byzantium for many months .... *cough* *Newmy old friend* *cough* :mrgreen:Me: Date Registered - June 13, 2012.
On a side note, have you seen this video?Oh, no I haven't. It was posted two days after I even registered, I was too busy being slaughtered on EU1.
It's from this (http://forum.melee.org/general-discussion/how-do-people-play-this-mod/msg482940/#msg482940) post.
yeah i remember most of those "old my old friends"
there are only few of them still playing
does the fact that i'm playing this game for almost 5 years makes me one of them?
Even though I've played this game since beta, I still play cRPG in periods becuase it's simply the most satisfying game I've ever played. Don't think I'll ever get bored of it completely.
Nice to hear you're doing well BJB(click to show/hide)
That was a nice read, well written Bjord.
The magic of the good old times. It was definately in the early stages of c-rpg that i had the most fun.
+ You're one of the few people to have more infamy than me, so i will always remember you for that! (How the hell did you manage that?)
I feel like I just walked into a retirement home filled with Vietnam War veterans reminiscing about their wartime stories. :P
I remember a time when i didn't get all the blame. *sigh*
Good read, enjoyed it even though all the names are largely irrelevant to me, being a huge NA cunt and all.
the only real thing I remember about you is telling me that I'm a filthy hipster for making some psuedo-dutch-viking clan while being a disgusting burgerclap, which is pretty much correct
and I think you came into the NA servers and shit on people while being banned or up at odd times or something
I remember a time when i didn't get all the blame. *sigh*
I remember a time when i didn't get all the blame. *sigh*
I remember a time when i didn't get all the blame. *sigh*Now it's tradition
I miss when I was walking around with a shitty short bow and a maul with stats spread evenly all over and couldn't kill anyone, but the battlefield was so epic :D
can we imagine an "old my old friends server" with old stuff, old rules, old animations and ofc old players only ?
I miss the old CRPG....
So, how old are you know, mature 20?
21, so still a young grass hoppa, but learning my ways of Tai Chi and Zen, yo.
Fake western style Buddhism or the real thing?

how did you play warband in "Mars" of 2009
I feel like I just walked into a retirement home filled with Vietnam War veterans reminiscing about their wartime stories. :P
But actually it's a "virtual communicating place filled with nerds reminiscing about their no-life stories".

oh, well written story
Shogunate, aw....that´s where it all started :>
I am mildly weebish, so yes. :wink:
Ended up with a 61-1 score at the end of the map. :oops:
I'd be fucking surprised if anyone but my old Einherjar clanmates like Angantyr, or even him, would remember that name.I remember. Still playing by the way, come join some time.
I meant to say I'm a bit more relaxed and down to earth these days

Hi Bjord!
Too bad you have grown up. Panos and you were my two favourite anti-heroes of all time.
:lol:
Wow, no mention of me, your greatest achievement, would not read again
Who were you againNewmy old friends don't know.

What's so funny? :wink:Just having a hard time believing your "I'm a better man now". But I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt :D

One of the few 1h only players where it actually has some elegance and not just spam...
You were a mistake, I'm sorry.Say it ain't so.
Say it ain't so.You know it's true, stop living in denial.
Bjorderino, 22nd wasn't the first cRPG server. IIRC The first (public) one was the donkey computer running a 30-40 man server.
CRPG through the eyes of a normal player.
I started playing M&B long time ago on a server without a warband key. Since I like history I decided to buy me a key, I wanted 1 but got sold 2 keys for warband.
Then as complete noob I played on a 22nd server. The 22nd organized battle for us... I could not get kills and the archery was to much OP. I came from Battlefield 2 to Warband and wanted melee and not a range fest . Then I saw that 22nd organized on their server crpg mod and I decided to try it. You could build your character there. Without 22nd I have maybe never tried crpg btw. So I played the mod, were Oberyn grinded all the time the same build and killed everyone. I was shielder, I could not manual block. Most of my kills I got with javs, I threw them in Gnjus feet, forced him to wear better foot armour. I was not that pro, I just aimed at his body but hit the feet... There was a 22nd guy, he was like a boss of 22nd, he cheated as archer with wpf, I remember I complained in chat about his one shot skills of shielders, before he got caught cheating, his nick was something with 22nd_V... Then Crpg got own servers.
At that time most shielders lost versus 2h, because they spammed us to death.
I saw some troll playing, I forgot his name. He just stand around in nomad cloth and throw daggers, never used his katana. People asked him why but he never answered. I got the idea to try something new, to be a Ninja in crpg. Why be a ninja?
The way of a ninja is flanking approach, good accuse not to stay in shieldwall not to direct approach enemies. Flanking attacks I could well from my Battlefield 2 special forces time. You flank the enemies, run to archers from behind cut them fast with katana before they can fight back, profit!
The problem was Oberyn and his horse, for that I had my javs, I scared Oberyn with javs away from me. If melee guys detect me I run away and throw javs at them or if they were fast I just turned around and cut them to the head. At this point I could manual block maybe one time, crpg was in fast game speed at that time. I used as armour Saracen guard armour, I had that black hood if remeber correct. It was fun and I got kills but one-on-one i could not do much, I could not feint. I had 2 simple macros left-right attack and right-left attack. So one-onone if someone could block, I would mostly lose.
Later I got a travel back (Leather Covered Round Shield), because archery was OP in that mod and without a travel back you could not dodge every of their shots if they detect you.
While I was dead, spectated Varyag, because I wanted to learn playing, I could not manual block so I tried to learn to get a better shielder. From Varyag I learnt that versus other shielders I need to learn to feint fast. But there was still a problem, 2h spammers. While I trained to feint with shield I found out how to fight 2h the way they cant spam me.
I remember Staffmaster Fasader, he was killing armoured people with wooden staff, crpg is a crazy mod... the staffmasters just needed to have fun.
One time a nacked girl with Miaodao (chadz nick) ambushed me while I was approaching the archers. I was really surprised, then it was nacked..., my travel back saved me, the girl destroyed the back but I could one time manual block and since the girl was nacked I killed her with one hit.
But before that I met Thomek on the battlefield. He started to followed me copy my style, he wanted always duel me, like between two ninjas who is better. The whole point for me to be a ninja was not to duel but kill from behind, ofc. I would lose every duel to Thomek, and if you want catach archers you need to be in time at right place. So I always run away from Thomek.
Since I found out how to be a good shielder I stopped my ninja carrier and started to play as shielder. I had to train vs other shielder but vs 2h I was very good, I won most fights vs them. There were another shielders like Olwen with 3 shields and so on but I was mostly running with Slil and cmp (good shielders, cmp was always turtling forward with her shield, I didn’t understand the tactic). Then I decided to start a new char Deremilitary and roleplay as roman legion soldier. A combined my flanking tactics and skills vs 2Hs and got kd like Lamhban, but Lamhban was still better since he got his kills from front assaults. At that time Oberyn, Gnujs, Lamhban found the Mercs because they wanted play in upcoming strategus. It was nothing for me, because I didn’t like Oberyn (killed me many times as peasant, grinded 2h hours a day, used horse without match the difficulties [chadz mod is always with bugs and exploits] and Gnujs (crossbow hiding). Lamhban was a funny guy before the Mercs btw. I left crpg to go back to other games like Battlefield 2.
Later I returned back with my other key (why with other key, I reinstalled warband and crpg but just used another key because I didn’t remember which I used before), Lamhban was leading his Mercs to victories in Strategus. In crpg everyone was level 40 or so. It was crazy. But there many big battles it was nice. I found out how to compete with that high level players. If you go agi and don’t wear armour you could outmanoeuvre all that tincans, like V-Mega. My tactic was direct approach but with hit and run I used my speed and high damaging 1h grosses messer to slaughter enemies from flanks or behind before they could catch me.
It was maybe the best time of crpg, best battles. But then they changed the armour malus. You could not outmaneuvre the tincans anymore... I left crpg for other games.
Later I come back. Fasader has stolen our looms btw, typical yugo...
I remember Phyrex, he was very fast I had problems to run away from him, he always followed me, he could block and kick well. My tactic was to avoid one-on-one if possible but he always followed me because I had no armour, no armour easy target peasant like...
I chated with Mala, we agreed to loom a grosses messer is the best way for light shielder. I started a new char with italian falchion, buckler and throwing axes, white tunica over mail and white headcloth to role play as sailor/pirate. Btw I don’t remember when but Lahmban played as Casader with berdiche polearm to show everyone that he can manual block.
One time I met him on duel server with Bjord both in heavy armor high level... Lamhban wanted to duel me with sword but could not kill me, after he got some cuts with my Italian falchion he put out his berdiche polearm and smashed my buckler and killed me. I could run away a throw axes at him, but it was not allowed. Then I duelled Bjord I got 8 hits on him but he was not dying, he killed me with 2. I reported Lamhban to cmp, she said that they already know about Lamhban ass like behaviour. I left crpg.
Later I came back and joined 22nd strategus faction as female char with my other key. We had some good battles but strategus was shit for shielders even Urist got most kills because he had wpf in polearm too... Then I loomed something and tried to give it my other char through the market for stones in that second TurmoilTom has stolen it. I contacted the Devs but... crpg = bugs. I left crpg again. I hope TurmoilTom enjoy my loom.
I came back as Marco Polo (not templar_polo) another key, from my previous chars of one of the keys I got a loom and money (1 million), I was rich. I started to play strategus, I came to get a lord of... CRPG was boring to me but at that time you had to play in crpg with your armour and weapons to be able to produce them in strategus. Because of that I stopped playing as shielder and learnt to manaul block to be a 2h. Because in strategus most people with good KD used 2Hs. Only one polish shielder had really good kds as shielder but it was not enough for an incoming lord who needs many mercenaries. Btw. Mercs at that point sucked as mercenaries because they wanted too much money for easy battles. But I made good connection with Wataga, Str/T, Legio and some others. I was raiding caravans in strategus to get gold, I raided merc trader for example... and other Wataga merc for me. I was in TS with Ivani4 who never blocks. T and SB splitted at that time, T needed troops for their strategus ambitions but had gold. So I traded troops for gold with them. These ways I made another millions in gold. I retired and used money to get three +3 looms, Danish, black armor, wisby hand armor.
But before that I had a swordsman in my service, Latrinenkobold, a good 2h, but nobody wanted to merc for him, he lost everything in strategus. I took him in my services, he helped my friendly factions with good kd. But he had problems with authorities, I used Phyrex build as 2h 15/24 and later to get 18/24. Because for me Phyrex was best 2h in crpg, in duel I hit Latrinenkobold 3 times but could not kill him, he killed me with two hits, 15/24 isnt a good build for duels I guess. But Phyrex is just better blocker and kicker than me... I lost my swordsman.
From my contacts with Sharky I did know that Legio wanted leave strategus and wanted give away a village. Me and one german merchant agreed to take over the village, he gave me 100-200 troops, I equipped my and his troops and was moving to the village as Kapikuls took it over.
I wrote to the Kapikulu Bey to stop his illegal actions because Legio the village to me but the Sultan of Kapikulus did not hear to warnings. He could not believe that one single player would own his army, always asked me about my clan. Then I attacked him, Wataga was allied with Kapikulus and didn’t merc for me, but my mercs from STR/T, DRZ, Hospitaller (friends of german merchant) and some other smashed away the turks in my black armor, Danish, and wisbys it was a nice ownage. There was a bug in strategus, if you transfer or retire you lose the village or all your items, i don’t remember anymore. Devs could not fix their bugged strategus so I left it. Because I could not reach more and invest time in bugged mod was pointless. I rewarded my heros from the battle for the village with my sword, armour, hand armour and money, deleted the key. Btw Greys cheated with 100s of accounts at that time.
I still had another key, long time I didn’t play warband. But then I came back as female char, the great leader mao restored my looms... from all previous chars on that key, ofc. not that one that TurmoilTom has stolen. I joined The Grey faction in strategus, not crpg, because greys were alliances on 22nd in previous strategus rounds. But then I saw that I have to be their robot, I came back to rtest new strategus and not just stay in a town to give grey my troops... Lamhban recruited me for his faction, he told me that I to find together in strat than be harpags robots, so I left greys and joined his faction. At that time PTX lost everything on items in strat and stopped be active there but still had a fief. Lamhban didn’t organized anything, I was disappointed from him, because he was leader of mercs in 1st strategus, a very good player in the past (and hated because of the character), I thought he would organized our faction to make us strong, but such lazy fat ass do nothing mates like Lamhban and PTX you will hardly meet again, if you compare their skills in that strat with druzhina leaders skills. But anyways I had my village and to defend it I started recruit people from DTV (clanless players) to our faction and ofc for my village. I recruited some russian noob, she/he was good at DTV but had no skill vs human players. He hated Druzhina. I tshowed him/her how to play and trade in strategus, gave him trade routes, money. He helped me to recruit other DTV noobs. I teached them too, gave them trade routes. We recruited Grandmom, she hated UIF the most, always nerfed me with ideas how to go to war vs UIF, while on the side Lamhban and PTX didn’t do anything to prepare for a defence. Ofc. we had not a chance if UIF would attack us. I gave my russian friend money horses and trade goods to sell it and come back with money but the traitor decided to give my money to Lamhban (our general in other fief who didn’t do anything for the faction). The Russian traitor has just stolen days and weeks of work i put to organized the money (started with nothing) and people. Lamhban could defend one time his fief with my money, UIF/DRZ took my defenceless village. I saw it coming, and wanted be prepared for UIF attack, ofc I would not be able to win vs UIF in the long run, but I could contact Druzhina and STR /T for a deal, that they let my DTV Village live but for that I need to be able defend it. The Russian traitor destroyed all my plans. I thought about to join the mercs faction just to help them with troops and gold vs UIF but for that you need to sit in their TS, play with them, UIF wiped them I guess, I dunno I left crpg/strategus again.
So im more player who played crpg in periods to test it and then leave, not a big hero but on my crpg life you can see crpg bugs through the time
Btw before throwing and side sword nerf I had fun on siege server vs 2h heros like gtx (eu) or spookisland (na) with war darts and 1h no shield it was fun too.
Cheers =)
I have absolutely no idea why I read it entirely, but I enjoyed it.
Good for you, fucker.
Just kidding, glad you liked it.
I think you were a fan of mine in the earlier days, before you truly knew what an asshole I was. :lol:
Good for you, fucker.Sorry for being unclear, I was talking about hellou's convoluted essay of doom. And no I wasn't much of a fan of you, what does that even mean?

Exploding with nostalgia
Hello mate.
Thanks for your story. It's nice to see even some anons pop up and speak up.
Btw. I started as El Cid but there was some troll that always said in chat, he would be the real El Cid…, maybe someone remember him.
Sorry for being unclear, I was talking about hellou's convoluted essay of doom. And no I wasn't much of a fan of you, what does that even mean?You weren't unclear, it's just Bjord showing that he's still the same old ego-Bjord

Some unknown, old my old friend from 2012, hereby says hi.No way, has it been 2 years already?
First visit to this game/forums in 2 years. Exploding with nostalgia, this is the first thread I come across, gg.
No way, has it been 2 years already?
So how did you maintain your existance without crpg this whole time?
Nice to see you. :)
Heavy drinking while living in solitude in the alps.
Really nice seeing you to :)
Pejlaen here too, nice! Bring Blueberry Muffin next time, the one I truly miss :oops:
