are strat battles working?

[Torben]

I have a large army and enough equipment for a few 500 man armies.  just touring NA and collecting more shit.  anyone who thinks he can rattle up some guys for a few matches,  hit me up and Ill split my men and inventory with you and we jerk around a bit

Come by new durquba I have thousands of geared troops

[Torben]

yo I think the players are the real problem here

I expect if the battle is at a good time for EU and NA on the weekend we can muster at least 20 players to fight. People still want to play crpg the servers are just constantly dead. Come to new durquba and well set one up for next weekend. Sunday afternoon for NA and Sunday night for EU sound good?

You can attack Durquba and we will fight it out on the dunes in front of the castle. That way when the battle ends we have defenders win and you don't get ported to EU. I will give you your gear back and more troops and we can repeat weekly for the next few weekends if we'd like. Sounds like a fun idea to me.

[Torben]

splendid.  ill need a few days,  am up in the tundra

[njames89]

I have already started letting people know and Ill keep informing people over the next week. Shouldn't be too hard to get some people as I imagine lots of people are itching for a little crpg again after servers being empty a few weeks

Will also put up a thread about it in the next few days. What size battle were you thinking? Probably 500 v 500 is enough for the rosters we will get.

[StonedSteel]

was under the assumption that strat battles were still frozen. make a post about another crpg scheduled playday, the last one brought in 40+ people for na. didnt last long, but strat was dead then.
still not fond of current crpg, but everyone needs a good murdertron crossbow line battle and 500 vs 500 is perfect for that

and if i know james...hes deff got xbows.

I do indeed but I would personally prefer an actual fight over just crossbow shooting.

[njames89]

ah shit i probably wont be able to do it this coming weekend after all. Maybe the weekend after that.

[Torben]

let me come to you before making a date anyway.  im slowly running out of strat tics,  dunno when ill make it

[njames89]

I think I see you outside Durquba Torben. Would this sunday work for you for the first of our XP battles?

hey man. unfortunately I am not at home this weekend and only have short timeframes in which I am on a computer. so no

[njames89]

OK will keep trying to set up a weekend we will get one that works eventually

So what happened with crpg servers? the only one to show on list is strategus but you used to be able to see battle, seige etc if you turned off filters.

[njames89]

yeah it looks like those servers are completely gone now. Only one I was able to see was China battle when I played the other day.
