 :arrow: What Casimir sais.
I respect DRZ, they are efficient and well organised and most important playing fair.

We (anti uif) fought each other last strategus and we've seen how that round went for us. After strat 3 we made one decision - forming an alliance from the beginning on and ignoring all former troubles we had with each other to fight uif as one block. Our one and only goal is to take every uif faction out of strat.
I think out policy to new&neutral Clans which recently started spreading across the map makes it clear that we want to have more independent factions on the map. Once the UIF is gone we will split up again - our alliance was formed to be a counterweight and not to bully every small/independent/neutral faction on the map around.

@Tyr_

UIF seems to become a word similair to terrorist and you are just fighting a war against terrorism. And i fear that you have seen the benefit of this cooperation you might as well keep it a bit longer, under the excuse of fighting UIF/terrorists.

Some parties may retain the friendship they have built up, i know our alliance with wolves was around before and is likely to continue afterwards.  The crusader alliance will be neutral with all other factions within the block unless otherwise stated (except them fallen heretics).

You cant totally destroy a faction in strat, they can always come back, so at one point or another you'll have to say "ok, peace" or it will be an eternal pointless struggle :P

Well, you can annoy the fuck out of them until they all quit strategus, but is that not pushing the boundaries of strategus warfare a bit too far ?

This war and alliance has only one purpose and its simple : if one has "all is fair in battle" mentality he, she should expect some strong resistance. We do not enjoy whats going on right now but it has to be done. Until everybody can have fun in equal terms, including the people we fight at this moment. Are we the white knights of this community? no we are simply people who are fed up with this shit.

To be honest I was really looking forward to fight UIF, I am quite disappointed that some of them chose to quit when they had their first hard time. They might disagree with my opinion about this but when did we agree on anything? We will disband at the end of this war, until UIF decides to play the same chrade once again.

You wouldn't stand a chance if UIF were as active as they were before. Better organization outside of battles, better rosters and better tactics in battles. I've played for both and I preferred fighting for the UiF, by far. :wink:

How about starting your own battle Gurni? or is it easier to sit in the corner and act like a efficiency critique? I'd like to see how you manage your own campaign.

Unlike the NA side, EU knows how to defend and equip army's.

Grey's were pretty good  at this, so most of them are  still fully plate geared = long time to grind them down.
DRZ i fear will be even better at this, so some great fights are still to be expected soon.
Not sure why you say that this isn't a war (attacking vs 40k shiny) but imply that those "barfights"on the NA side are actual wars  :mrgreen:

Really?   A war is only real if both sides crutch on ultra heavy armor because we are talking about factions with near infinite resources between 2 sides with hundreds of players on one or the other.  NA has  a lot more divisions and therefore dirty wars where equipment runs a real gambut instead of being standardized for tens of thousands of tickets like drones.

And unfortunately this is why crpg and strat are much more fun to play on NA than on EU, why isnt there a fibreglass connection to your servers so i can play there with a ping better than 150...

Eu has too many fiefs/ player... this means little ticket grind, loads of gold available to equip them.

Prove that you are able to wipe from the map remains of our former mightiness, and bring good entertainment for us all.  You know where to find us, or should I write to you? Spare us excuses, and in accordance with the saying "less talking - more riding" just try to do it :twisted: Don't count on our activity. If you want to fight, you have to come  :)
