OVH is a very good host: https://www.ovh.co.uk/dedicated_servers/game/

Not particularly cheap, but for 83€ a month it includes DDoS protection/mitigation and has essentially no downtime. However, only has locations in France in Europe.

One other thing concerning raiding, not sure if it has been brought up (probably has).

Personally, I think the raiding concept at the moment is kind of broken, although I can understand that it encourages people to have garrisons.
However, if you have a 1k garrison and it gets raided by 200 people, surely at least, let's say 15% of the garrison should be able to fight in the battle, if the defender choses to deploy them (otherwise it could be abused to grind down troops).

The amount of garrison troops able to defend against the raid could grow with the amount of people attacking. (It's harder to sneak up on a village/castle the more troops you have.)
So there is an element of risk involved for the person who raids, however the battles would be roughly balanced and if he wins he gets some gear and one could maybe remove an additional 1-2% of the garrison (attrition due to the raid).

Otherwise, I think one could remove raiding alltogether.

There is no fairplay in this strategus . I have enough of this bullshit. I quit. One of many examples why:
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=strategusbattlesarchive#!?page=strategusinfobattledetail&id=1031 (note i did not show up, cause i had lectures)

Your faction attacked at that shitty time and then noone shows up, how is that related to fair play?

Thank you Butan  lol

Who can't understand that 50 vs 50 without UIF players is almost impossible even in the middle of prime time?
Our community is just too small for more than two main sides so why drama and shit talking?

Protons, neutrons, electrons and morons...

It would work with more sides if people (especially UIF players) would merc for battles that didn't involve their own faction. UIF could split up 50:50 onto both teams, I bet that would be more enjoyable for everyone.

I don't see how it is fun for UIF to wipe everyone in 2 months after strat starts and then just abandon it because I'm pretty sure it's the last strat ever.

I'd rather have them stay in the desert and just sign up for battles on both sides to balance the rosters. They can still send out armies to fight but no need to take 3/4 of the map and locking them down for non UIF.

Also if the devs gave crpg gold and silver for attendence of battles and upped the EXP a lot more people would play.

And this is one of your biggest problem and mistake. There is point, especially at first phase of strategus.

There is basicly no point anymore. The 100 extra ticks the UIF would lose would make no difference.

And thats the main reason why you get rekt in every battle.

I'm pretty sure I've only ever seen you fight for the UIF side and you have the audacity to criticize people for not wanting to fight them? Personally I get fed up with being in a team with people where the majority doesn't even manage to get a 1:2 kd.

UIF doesn't get that everyone would rather be fighting each other and make it interesting. Being forced to work together to with a bunch of people you don't know and some you don't like generally isn't fun.

And the fact that the UIF occupies more than half of the map doesn't help.

Note to self: Promising random small gold awards for Varadins and Hetmans head is a viable tactic, repeat!

P.S.: Congrats Arn and Hektor, set a market offer for rewards

Edit: I noticed some uif members acting pretty sour lol whats that about?

Then I need some more aswell ;P

Damn... changed hero to not so high level polearm, first full battle with long spear (20-7) and they immediately whining about pikes. I'm unlucky, sorry.

Most of the whining about pikes I've seen in the servers comes from your side

There's a difference in running around as defender putting up flags and camping the gatehouse several minutes after you have defacto lost the siege. Or camping at the spawn wasting equipment.

No evidences of your words. We were regrouping, so, go RTFM little boy.

RTFM? I might be  a "little boy" but at least I'm not throwing around nerdy acronyms.

You were delaying by hiding in the gatehouse and at your spawn area, you're supposed to attack, not force the defenders to do so.

So hardly poll abuse.
