Has the coalition given up?

[serr]

Or if you have nothing to lose.

I wasnt part of strat one,  but of what ive heard this role they had there was great.  Prolly the funnest thing to do,  but you can only pull it through if you are strong enough to be untouchable i guess.

Thats the way all mercs have wanted it to go, but we keep being pulled back into the east v west war

Once a cheater, always a cheater.

Not really.

In the next update the 1/3 rule will be ignored when you attack with 1.800 or more troops. The maximum battle time depends on the smaller army only: with 1.800 troops you get ~80 minutes, to get the maximum of 3 hours you would need ~9.300 troops with the current formula.

I'll quote this here just to make sure everyone has seen.. No ETA for strat update #2 but hopefully it will be soon.

Will be interesting to see if this actually changes anyone's tactics and how it effects the current war against Coalition.

EDIT - ETA now given as 1 to 2 weeks

Thats because all their 100 brothers and sisters play now in the same house

Maybe keep the few fiefs and dont bother conquering more and start seeking merc contracts, would be fun for you I think!

From what I have heard in the first round of Strat the rules on logging in on other's cd-key's weren't all that clear, at least at first. I have been told that it was pretty commonly done by a lot of clans including the early Shogunate leadership. Sure the Greys carried it to an extreme level, but I don't think it was as black and white as nowadays whether it was considered cheating.

Doubt the entire early Coalition or Merc leadership has clean hands even in this very regard. Not too consider various other bug exploiting instances. There is no morally superior side in Strat, Strat brings out the worst in everyone.

in 1st strat when the username and password was in link like "www.blablabal-login-pass" one guy wrote a program that makes a list of factions and summed up all the gold and troops, also u can viewed equipment of any character from the list. To do this, u needed a text file with their passwords and logins. So sure with my IP had more than 100 keys aswell cos then we had like 150 members not sure if GO used same programm

I was never asked to give any account to anyone in hre. Never. Not one time.
Only thing i can remember that there was a option for being babysitted if you were on vacation.
But that was a looong looong looong time ago and i dont even remember when and if i am correct.

Btw. i had fun today in battle ;)

We have a Greek saying "It`s better to lose your eye, than the trust of your name".

If that's the case then shouldn't cmp/chadz/whatever have never allowed you to play crpg again? I mean no way people can learn to behave, right?

Oh, and last I checked DaveUKR sorta admitted to having used another merc members account for strat for something.

Implying that cheating is the same with being ill mannered.

Cheating is the ultimate crime you can do in videogames, it`s like commiting a murder.

getting a bit off topic eh

regarding OP I don't think coalition have given up i just think they are going to sit in the castles till you break em down

It wasn't a merc, just a merc faction member who got even kicked from the faction for acting like a retard. I used teamviewer to control one of the attacks/rosters because he got kicked out of the faction and I couldn't see where he was going and he had no chance to accept players. I never made it secret and I even told this in TS while making the rollcall. One thing is that it was impossible to prove as I used teamviewer (remote control, technically it was made on his PC just by my hands), still I took all the responsibility on myself knowing that I could be punished for that. I still have those sms which I sent to phones of Muffin and Ginger when there was something urgent in strat. And I never had their passwords, nor they had mine.

The problem is in Strategus itself. They should add some built-in tools for faction leaders so they can control members without logging in. Strategus should be easier and should not contain micromanagement.
