Hospitaller Cowards

[Lorenzo_of_Iberia]

The Great Khans were attacked by the Hospitallers this morning but it appears they were not man enough for the fight. Many of our brave players got up out of their lordly hammocks to fight the battle this morning only to find the Knights could not field a single person to fight against us. We are thoroughly disappointed as we were really looking forward to taking your heads as trophies...

Dont talk the talk if you cant walk the walk ;)

Love GK

Sounds like a delaying tactic to "lock up" and stall your army.

It locked up 3k troops, 500 of which were population. I'm afraid that's really not our army 

And they didn't follow it up with anything.

My guess is they tried to go for a cheap last ditch attempt at a fief before the gold/equip wipe. They made a critical error in forgetting to check my night time settings, meaning the battle was set to 9am when my night time ends. So it meant that depending on east or west coast, they would have been playing at 1am or 4am. Add on the fact that we quickly reinforced the original 500 and well...you can see why they changed their minds

Oh... they attacked a settlement? That was stupid.

Just a tad.

thanks for all the info it should come in handy

O yes so handy knowing my night time settings when you can just click on me and see it 

Though I did just notice that clicking on a fief doesn't show the night time settings for it. But regardless...it hardly matters

A boast of strength could very well be a cunning bluff ;) or it could be true

I have no idea about the details behind the attack (only what I can gather from seeing the battle on the battle page yesterday), but no way in hell I was staying up to 3am to fight (and then having to stay up til 5 or 6am).  Gotta be in to work by 8am.  Not sure why/how we would have attacked so late at night on a work/school night.

I didn't even realize we had an army down in sarranid lands.  Great khans aren't very great at all though, so it's not that big of surprise to me.

I wonder if devestater was smart enough to retreat or if he lost all the troops/equipment/money.

[Overdriven]

He lost all of it.

But yeah I'm thinking he attacked at a sensible time for NA which obviously with my night time settings, shifted it to a semi ok time for EU 

Great khans aren't very great at all though, so it's not that big of surprise to me.

Also  what? After thought insult?

Just talking shit, like you calling hospitallers' cowards.  You put great in your name, that doesn't make it so.

I don't understand why he wouldn't have retreated.

Well...keep more of a tab on your members next time?

He kept putting himself in the roster and then taking himself out again. Maybe he couldn't make his mind up about whether to stay awake?

He is a member, and that's not his responsibility as last I checked he's not a officer or leader of any sort.

Useless thread is useless.

[Overdriven]

Just questioning the attack as it was a bit...random. Plus it was just rather amusing from our end.

So not really a useless thread.

You start a fight you should finish it ;) At least GK knows that, your man brought no one to the fight, not even mercs Dont overly care whos responsibility it was we were expecting a fight! Next time, please come sword in hand...

Also we the love the smack talk
