I was at that WoTN siege at Tilbault. Found the perfect spot for a catapult, and made it safe from ranged. Then someone drove a siege tower in front of me, and once that was clear I got about 2 shots at the castle before the defenders sallied out and easily destroyed it. Since then I've dreamed of taking the impregnable Tilbault.
But the HCE has no intention of attacking Astralis. Despite their constant rostering against us, I consider them friends. The steam conversation I had with Moonshine, which was done completely in RP, was just a bit of pissing about which I mistakenly took seriously.
Honestly, the Berserks and me don't mind much about being wiped like we were, we'll get back up and try again. I just personally find all this shit the HCE is spouting to be so god damn stupid, don't play the good guy when you're playing the same game and just as low. (Which I don't consider low at all, just part of the game)
Good to see you realize you are playing a war game, and in war risks are taken and don't always succeed. While we do want more players involved, we're not going to coddle them and share nicely and give everyone a participation award. Voncrow sees through our bullshit- we are a warlike nation- we love wars, we love to fight, and we love to crush our enemies. But we gotta be nice on the forums and try show we are good guys so we can get roster support.
But here's the shocker- almost everyone playing is a good guy. I've been on most Team Speaks, and found everyone to be quite amusing. Acre, Squids, Wardens, Berserks- all seemed quite cool. So, as usual, I'll plead for even rosters and decent battle times. We want to earn our victories.
