Strategus General Discussion / Underhanded filth attempting to take Fisdnar

« on: January 07, 2015, 01:45:14 am »

This is twice now that Kais has attacked the glorious home of the proud Peasants of the north at terrible battle times.  His first attempt was early morning on New Years Day!  But we roused from our stupor of the previous night's revelry to feed the crops of Fisdnar with their blood.  I implore all honorable(optional) combatants to rally in defense of The Common Man and reasonable battle times everywhere!

Mercenary Recruitment / Bandit extermination

« on: November 03, 2012, 08:16:40 pm »

This bandit was caught robbing a caravan on the Great Taiga.  Now he will be punished and his plunder returned to it's rightful owner.

Sign up to fight for the Free Peasants of Fisdnar and the honor of free traders everywhere!

Need a few more mercs for this battle coming up soon.  We have good gear for all classes and will accept almost anyone but we are specifically looking for EU archers.  The bandit has more troops but our gear is far superior and we will not have trouble wiping them out.

« on: August 23, 2012, 04:22:51 pm »

The Free Peasants and their allies have managed to get into some more battles with the good fellas of FIDLGB.  There is no war brewing, it's all in good fun and we need to use these troops and gear for something, right?

But now we need mercs to make the battles worth fighting!  Join us (or even those bowling guys if you must ) for action and XP.  Here are the battles we are involved in, we especially need more people to show up early Friday morning.  There's plenty of troops and gear to make it worth waking up to play Strategus!

Diplomacy / Is there no place left?

« on: March 07, 2012, 11:07:46 pm »

It seems that many are raising the visiting fee at their villages to a level that is either ridiculous or simply makes doing business there unprofitable.

Are there any villages in NA with a low goods price willing to host some independent traders?  We would bring more to the table than the obvious visiting fee and a lowered crafting efficiency, but I'd rather not discuss such things openly here. 

If you know of a friendly village with a low visiting fee and goods price, please post here.  If you are the owner of such a village or would be willing to make a mutually beneficial arrangement with us, please send me a PM.

General Discussion / Get bonus XP for Strategus battles!

« on: December 10, 2011, 07:41:19 pm »

NPC villages need more defenders in Strategus.  There are player controlled fiefs in dispute as well.   Hop in there to earn bonus XP.  You now get 5k XP per 200 seconds as well as the normal XP.  Check the battles tab on your cRPG character page or look at this thread to get the highlights.

Strategus Issues / Not being accepted for defense of Tismirr (NPC village) Saturday 9:27 EST

« on: December 04, 2011, 06:38:57 am »

I've done quite a bit of defending NPC villages and it's never taken this long to be accepted.  There are currently only 2 defenders accepted and I'm sure I can't be the only other person applying so I think there may be something wrong with the NPC fiefs accepting defenders.  There has been a steady decline of defenders for these sieges and something like this isn't helping.  Some people who applied may not even wake up in time or bother to check tomorrow if they see that they aren't accepted by tonight.

Please fix it soon.

Mercenary Recruitment / Help me defend my caravan from Kapikulu bandits

« on: December 03, 2011, 04:36:09 pm »

70 bandits unarmed have attacked my 86 troops lightly armed.  Please sign up for the battle that will take place at 11:13 EST this morning.  I got reinforced from a friend bringing me to 186 but now there is a another army of 85 Kapukulu camping out waiting to attack as soon as this battle ends.  I shouldn't have a problem defeating them as well but they sure are annoying!

Diplomacy / Unprovoked attack by Kapikulu

« on: December 02, 2011, 06:22:54 pm »

I am a simple trader minding my own business and suddenly I find myself set upon by fools.  I have no trade goods, I outnumber him and I have better gear (as far as I know he may have none).  I don't know what Kapikulu_ABB_Sefa hopes to accomplish by attacking me, but he will be crushed if he does not call off this attack.  Under normal circumstances I would relish the chance for a fight on Strategus but I am on a tight schedule at the moment and would like to be on my way.

Just because I am not affiliated with a faction at the moment doesn't mean I have no friends and allies nearby.  I see a few Kapikulu on the map near me with no troops but they have crates = trade goods.  I suggest you cancel this attack immediately Kapikulu_ABB_Sefa, or I will call hell down upon them and from this day forward my friends and I will attack all Kapikulu on site.

I understand that your faction has had trouble lately and I do not wish to add to your pain unless you inconvenience me further.

General Discussion / 2 warband keys

« on: November 26, 2011, 06:26:48 pm »

There is a sale on steam right now and I'd like to buy a copy of Warband for my fiance so we can play cRPG together but I've heard that having more than one key at the same IP can get you banned.  I seriously doubt she will ever want to play Strategus or use the marketplace and if that is the only concern I will make sure she never does.  I have never used the market place myself and don't plan to anytime soon if ever.  Are there any exceptions to the 1 key per IP rule?  If only one of them plays Strat and neither of them use the marketplace, I don't see much room for exploiting, but I really don't know.

Please help me figure this out as the sale ends tomorrow!

Strategus General Discussion / Strategus Battles!

I will try to edit the second post in this thread as much as I can to keep people aware of Strategus battles that are worth participating in.

Strategus Issues / Crafting my brains out

« on: November 08, 2011, 10:53:44 pm »

Either I am very lucky or something is wrong with the crafting system.

Since sometime this morning I have been crafting the maximum number of items my skill allows per hour.  Although this might sound like a nice bug to some, it can be a serious problem if you are crafting something expensive with a high skill (making too many of the item and spending a LOT more gold than expected).

Was something changed?  Is anyone else experiencing this?

Strategus General Discussion / NPC fiefs need more defenders tonight

« on: November 02, 2011, 12:19:37 am »

Subject says it all, we need more people to sign up and help defend.

There are 4 sieges taking place tonight between 20:28 and 23:28 EST that are currently showing less defenders than attackers.  I'm pretty sure it's not intended by the developers to have these fiefs taken so easily.  Personally I think they should do more to incentivize defender participation, perhaps a guaranteed 2-5 Strategus gold and maybe 5-10 for a successful defense.

Also, I don't understand those in an ambitious faction who don't take more interest in fiefs easily going to competing factions, especially those in close proximity to one another.  Even if it's your ally taking a fief, come and make an interesting fight.  That's what most of us are here for in the first place, right?  Battles that matter.  With more organization and teamwork than you might find on a native server or even other cRPG servers.

Come on down, join us and MAKE THEM BLEED for the land they want to control!

Strategus General Discussion / Defending NPC fiefs

« on: October 21, 2011, 10:08:25 pm »

I have taken part in several sieges since the most recent start of Strategus and I feel like something needs to be done about the defenders representing the NPC villagers.  There is little to no organization, some people are spawning with no equipment, others are running off in random directions or straight toward the enemy and wasting tickets.  Half the defenders are yelling to stay in the village, the other half are yelling at everyone to charge and no one seems to have a good idea of how to successfully defend a fief.

I've seen a few instances of teamwork and cooperation but it usually doesn't last long enough to make much of a difference.  Perhaps we could assign someone trustworthy as a commander so we at least know who to listen to.  I'd also like to see more policing of the Strategus server during sieges so the people who don't care about the fief losing tickets can be ejected before they can do much harm.

We just can't let the NPC controlled fiefs go down so fast with such little cost to the attackers.  Unless of course that is intended...

Any ideas or suggestions are welcome.
