I have added to the original statement so that people can understand who a few of the relevent players are who they can look to for Expert advice on how to build troops or fleets for specific causes Original message here > Alright people im going to say this one time only so read and understand > > This is an alliance . YES IT IS. but it has traditionally been a DEFENSE oriented one where we come to the aid of our comrades to protect their towns. > > This is a war with an opponent that thinks offensively, and we are adjusting slowly. some of you are the go getter type, and i have nothing but respect for that approach as it is what we need to pound X into surrendering. BUT---- perhaps 30% of the players in this alliance think that way, and like Nero said, the rest have a hard time with going hunting for enemy troops outside their own towns. those that do almost always run low on gold or sulfur to support a continuous drain on their own economies that maintaining a combat ready military does. Those doing the fighting - GROW UP - get over the fact that sometimes you will stand alone - nobody is being asked to fall on their sword for the alliance, and those that have been sent on suicide missions have been told that that is EXACTLY what it was and why.... ricky and guido were in one of those areas, and as a result they got pounded --- blood pressures ran high and they took the GAME too seriously -- yes we want to win, but the sacrifice they made WAS A WIN despite the loss on the Combat Report as we were able to total off enemy forces elsewhere - m ost notably spliffy and alphadog, who went bankrupt trying to hunt for our troops in the 4x3x area. X does NOT know how to win at economic warfare ---- WE DO --- we h ave won the last 2 wars on economics. DO NOT GO GETTING YOUR knickers in a twist over one lost battle. if you want to see how many lost battles there are check the board cr postings for X vs SOL. X loves to post on the boards, we do not feel the need for it because the Opoints and Dpoints list tell a much bigger story of just how well we function as a team on defence, which will win this in the long run. > > Yes- you have every right to be a little ticked at losing troops when it happens too much with nobody there, but this is not the situation with what happened at Lelouch. he whined and complained to ricky , and his own alliance , and eventually they WILL tire of his complaining -- we did, which is why he is no longer here. > > Enough of the dissention in the ranks people. > > Stay local with your team leaders and work with them. there will be ops more localized with the occasional big multiteam missions. do not let the game cause you to lose sleep or get grouchy over it. IT IS NOT WORTH IT! I KNOW!!! =-- 18 months of being near the keyboard 18 hours a day - do not complain to me of losing the odd battle, we have all been there. > > We will win this as a team, if you want to function as an individual do it in real life where it matters, the game is just a matter of picking the targets and occasionally sacrificing troops or ships. I have done that often enough myself to know , and X sorrowly underestimates me because they think i dont know how to fight and win. they assume every small fleet i suicide into one of theirs is just cowardice... think again. > > Suck it up. be prideful in YOUR ABILITIES, and stop criticizing each other. we knew the 4x3x area would be where the action is, they have given up everywhere else so far. at any given time this morning there were half a dozen battles going on just on 1 island chain in that region. priorities people. dont let it get to you. > Addon: If you wish to see who the big fighters are: Look on the Opoints and Dpoints list in game Nuckinfutz is a veteran on the offensive side, and has repeatedly advised attacking rather than defending, i have trouble recalling when he has lost a battle recently when he has been online ERMiglio- Perennial thorn in the side of the X alliance, as can be attested to given that his opoints and dpoints are consistently top 5, if not the top. If you wish to ask his advice, do so in Italian, as he is from that nation. Naval Notables - Myself (and im not trying to toot my horn here, i am almost 80% naval which most people in the alliance will agree is heavy in that area.) HectorSF - has rarely lost a naval battle in as long as i can recall, and while hes busy in RL he will make time to answer inquiries if you post them to him. Defensive tag teams Ajanik/InterFC/Nuramon - Keep giving alphadog, and others fits in their area- Kudos on that. Lilwebber/Optimus/Big Herm - X has tried to recruit these guys so often its a broken record - they just cant get through these guys in a military way, and have lost nearly every battle in recent memory - tough as nails group of players. BUILD A CORE TEAM of a few players that can watch each others backs people, and HAVE A TOWN ON A COLOSSUS ISLAND as a last ditch in case your group gets caught off balance. it happens, thats why we have the colossus wonder. learn to use it and you too will enjoy the respect and hatred of your opponents There are others that constantly battle and i commend everyone that tries, but understand that while the ones that are fighting are doing their job - the rest are building and expected to supply the fighters. if you are NOT supporting them by actively trading gold or resources, then look in the alliance listing for where their towns are, send spies to idle towns nearby and get resources and garrison reports to forward to them. so they know where to raid for those resources. it only costs a bit of wine and gold to do those reports. contributing does not have to mean tying up your ships, even though a steady gold supply is needed. Work the problem people, dont go looking or causing new ones out of frustration. it is a game first, enjoy the battles, ship your resources around to prevent from being pillaged, upgrade warehouses and other buildings to minimize the loot X can take from you (if any) and make them PAY for EVERY ATTACK they try to execute on you. Learn to play the cat n mouse game well. they will tire of it before we do. You are in SOL because you are survivors who have not given in to the bullying that X tries to impose on everyone. remember that Edited by borg81722, Aug 26 2011, 03:53 PM.

some of you may have noted that Guido SFFS has been banned for inappropriate message content. PEOPLE - Remember we are the number ONE alliance on this server, as such that draws an inordinate amount of scrutiny from GO's and other players who are seeking ANY opportunity to get our members banned. If you use foul language, 90% of the time it WILL make its way back to someone who can use the BAN button on gamma server and they will do it. Dont ruin your enjoyment of the game by being foul mouthed over the net - we all work hard to be part of the success story that is SOL, and this is not what anyone likes or wishes for. Please be careful and if someone is getting under your skin - WALK AWAY - take 10 minutes to go make a coffee (or Tea), and splash some water on your face, go for a walk - whatever winds your clock. Take that time and it will save you having an account possibly ruined. We are #1, lets keep the reputation as high as the standards that we are expected to live up to . Guido will not be banned as this is a first time offence for this and only 2 days ban because of it. im sure he will think twice in future. Keep up the good fight people and stay cool under the collar. |
