P.S. Please don't sit on fiefs, ignoring primetime, then attacking middle of next day - this mod too dead to have good fights midday for anyone, most of us have work or school. Be kind to the community and attack at actual decent times. I ABSOLUTELY PROMISE none of of our castles will run away (though I hear Tulga is a bit of a tramp, so be careful).
guys can we hold off the war for a few days
i have a kidney stone

oddly attacked twice before the declaration and none after. Is the war over already? Were those attacks arowaine's premature attackulation?
you guys don't even bother defending village why attacking castle with fully duped gear ??? i expected more from you but apparantly you still need to learn strategus skill level lisent up to kesh maybe one day you will finnaly get good at it :)
You have taken two pointless fiefs, congrats. Even beginners know at this stage, defending bad fiefs is bad strategy. You started this war, do not try and turtle before you even try to do something significant!
Keeping with the premature attackulation analogy, you had two tiny thrusts and it is all over? I feel terrible for the french Canadian women! I imagine that is why bobthehero joined us.... he did not want to be connected to your flaccid attempts to do something in this game.
neither of you are "Bad Guys" so rosters should be pretty fair and all should be good!Stop you're ruining Kesh's victim complex. Surely FCC will have significant merc shortages throughout the war.
O SHIT SON ITS GETTING REAL NOWBRD
vs
Occitan
VERSION 2.0
It is more like 5.0 at this point :P
maybe you will actually win this one?
Jesus christ you can't make a thread involving BRD without them shitting it up
you can't make any thread without them shitting it up
you can't make any thread without them shitting it up
Kesh, your faction received Durrin Castle from BADPLAYER who was permanently banned for running literally 5+ accounts on strategus. Not to mention thousands of tickets of duped gear, and at least* two of his accounts were in your faction right up until he got banned lmao.
this post made me laugh so hard.
I find it awesome that BADPLAYER was the closest crpg will ever have to a terrorist if the accusations he posted about in his unban thread are true.
Link? :D

Reading this thread has made me sad... but also oddly amused and scared.How about... aroused?
Can't wait for strategus 10 where all that remain are Kesh and Arowaine playing hide and seek on the strat map.
The only way to win Strat is by not playing.
Wait, so Bruttus did win the war?
I guess this thread should be "You done goofed Occitan". No attack for almost a week since declaring war. I think they didn't actually intend to declare war in a war game? Too scary to actually attack. In all honesty we kind of expected that from Occitan, happens every strat no matter how heavily the odds are in their favor. I'm sure they will attack undefended Amere and call that an unparalleled victory and then spend rest of strat making giant sums of money off their overlord UIF masters' fiefs and feeling super e-peen about their fief ownership while secretly hoping someone will attack them after they declared war as the biggest faction on the map.
This is starting to turn into an angry Bruttus thread.
Mommy the bad men are getting angry!
I concur that we definately are low on NA server pop and large armies w/ good gear seiges. I'm going down with the ship too!
I wish every single day that I had bought this game sooner and been around for Strat 1-4 when shit was really popping.
I'm not saying you guys are slacking, but with less than a third of your people (at the time) we managed 29 battles in just two months. Dwarven Miners Guild, best guild.(click to show/hide)
I guess some wars are fought on the Strat map while others like this are fought on the forums.
We are one step ahead. We fought both on the map and in the forums.
But the difference is you lost on both forums AND map. Nice effort tho.
With the gear bug siegeing is pretty lame to be perfectly honest. I mean anyone could have 1000 troops of good gear sitting in thier fief and never have to spend any more silver to keep the quality of the initial gear. I didn't see any point in declaring war just because of that fact.I seem to recall making a similar statement about the squids declaring war on the GOBBLINS and not doing any attacks at all and you gave me shit for that. "Sir Spacey is a squid" meanwhile he is in the BRD strat faction and not the AoW and at the time was wearing the BRD banner and not the AoW. Now, here you are saying we haven't attacked in almost a week when we had two battles four days ago taking your villages away in the desert.
I probably have more to say but I've gotta get back to work.
Edit: Wars go both ways

wealthiest
I can't remember how to access it now, but about a month back I stumbled upon the built in graphs of strat stuffs, attacks, total troops, troops lost, etc. and at that point it listed Veluca as the wealthiest faction (though certainly not the largest). For the life of me I can't find that information again lolAre you talking about this? http://c-rpg.net/?page=strategusbattlesarchive&view=chart I don't know what you're on but I find it hard to believe the despotate were at one point graphed at the richest faction no offense to Taser or anyone in the Despotate Especially after seeing their gear in the recent attacks on MERC's villages.
I don't what you were looking at but I can guarantee Despotate were no where near the wealthiest faction at that time. No offence to Taser or anyone in the Despotate faction.

French Canadians aren't a race, they're a mistake.Race is a social construct.
lolol i would like to see such a graph
I still can't flippin figure out how to view that though lol

Yeah it was definitely that layout but it also had the option to show dosh. I think the metric I was looking at was actually most silver- so at that point Despotate had the most silver- unspent, I'm assuming- but still weren't the wealthiest because wealth would include gear and not simply unspent silver. I still can't flippin figure out how to view that though lolThe graph where it says silver only shows silver in fiefs, it doesnt count silver in your personal pocket. If you look at the graph now it does indeed show Despotate as the wealthiest faction with 885k silver in their fiefs but all that means is they either have very high taxes on their fiefs and get a lot of use, or they just forget to take it out/want to never worry about their garrisons running out.
no one would ever leave anywhere near 100% of their wealth in their fiefs.
Afaik, these graphs only present the information that is already public knowledge - the size of the garrison and amount of gold stored in each fief, all totaled up for each faction. It doesn't account for amount of troops in your field armies, or the handful of nerds in each faction hoarding all the silver, since no one would ever leave anywhere near 100% of their wealth in their fiefs.
You can find that info here: http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=strategusfieflist&view=chart - it is found by going to strat>fiefs>search>chart view. So as I mentioned above, this is only the troop/silver totals for what is in the fiefs.

Race is a social construct.
I think McDeath's point was that it's pathetic to be prejudiced towards a group of people over a video game. And he's right, that's a pretty silly worldview.
He is french canadian though so he is making fun of himself too. Kind of like an Uncle Ruckus of Quebec. :P
What the fuck did you say? I am from fucking Boston son, I will fuck your day up.
Say that shit to my motherfucking face and you will be eating from a tube.
Fuck Canada and their pussy bundle of sticks hockey shit.
If only you could hear how angry I was typing you would know that I don't fuck with that shit. Fuck Canada, the B's reign supreme
I'm from Los Angeles.. I'll fucking you cut off on the lane and give you the bird while doing it. You want to mess with me? Fucking tokyo drift all over your face.
Honestly I am rooting for the kings this series because fuck everyone else.

SOOOOoooo I get muted for spam, but this shit doesn't warrant a mute? THANKS NA ADMINS THX
I'm from Seattle, I wont do anything about it right away but I'll be passive aggressive towards you for the rest of the time we know each other. Everytime you want to make plans I'll just say "maybe" and never give you a definitive answer and then cancel the day of with the ol' "Hey man, sorry I can't make it. Really swamped at school/work. Besides I've already hiked 10 times this week and I want to take a day off from that. Cool thanks, see you at a starbucks maybe?"Such is life.
Sounds like Minnesota Nice!
Actually bug long term benefits attackers. May take 2-4 waves, but when you take the castle you get twice the defender's gear in pristine condition. Near a break-even as most defenses have extra gear in fiefs. Before attackers would have lost 90% of their gear with each wave and get a bunch of broken garbage at the end. Now you lose the last 10%, but get far more when you take it. And devs have made no efforts toward fixing (imminent? lol, try Dec. 2010, just an excuse not to attack with all your shiny armies for fear of denting your plate).
P.S. But honestly man, it's fine. We really are not even remotely surprised that Occitan, of all clans, would declare war and then never attack. The only French_Canadian I have met in this game that is not demasculated, is BobTheHero who fights first person 1her no shield. Kind of left most with a poor impression of French Canadians (Russians too with how much UIF blatantly cheats, but makes sense those two groups would find each other). I am sure most are not like them, but really bad representation on their part. Oh well, continue the forum war, nothing else you guys are good for in a medieval war simulation game.
