Actually the Arch TW was over before Legion TW.

Pretty much what I said....the battle with Legion took longer then expected to the point where the other Rad high level members could not reinforce the battle in Arch. In any case, this is what happens in a case where too many TW's occur at once. Everyone had fun so it was all good. b:pleased

Rad's decision to just hold off Legion was right.

If Radiance sent enough force to actually down Legion's crystal, they wouldn't have the firepower to stand a chance against Enrage. So in a way I never expected Radiance to finish off Legion first.

Legion isn't that weak. You can't just stroll in with a substitute team and expect to take down their crystal and easily waltz into Enrage's TW. RoC almost lost against Legion because we thought we could take down Evolution fast enough to reinforce Legion. Instead in the middle we had to give up Evo's offensive and pull forces back to defend against Legion, resulting in a 3 hour win in both matches. I think that was what Radiance was going for.

You are right, Legion could definitely put up a tough fight. I think you already pointed out that time was a disadvantage for Rad. Once the battle with RK was over, Legion already had the headstart and was pulling up cats outside Rad's HQ when their members arrived to defend the territory. This took a lot more time for Rad to push the fight back to Legion's HQ. In any case, even with the disadvantage Rad had, everyone had fun and pretty much not much folks complained. It's a nice start to making TW's fun again and I am definitely looking forward to future Enrage vs Rad battles. b:pleased

Enrage asking other guilds to attack? haha. conspiracy theories ftl.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Enrage has no allies. Enrage doesn't want any alliances. (be it preliminary or full-fledged b:chuckle) Enrage doesn't need any alliances.

Actually, we'd love to have allies. It's just that no one likes us. b:surrender

Look we will make no excuses; just facts. 8 cats vs 4 is a HUGE firepower advantage. We sent the best we could given that we had 3 tws at the same time and some of our high levels weren't there or multiaccounting it to try and help (a la playing 2 chars in seperate tws to try and help). Bottom line is that we lost and Enrage won. Good job you guys. Hopefully this is the kick in the butt that some of our members need to get themselves better equipped via equipment/refining/phoenixes etc...We will probably always have multiple tws from now on each weekend so we have got to be prepared for this which we have been trying to do these past few weeks. Anyone that's signed up has made it to at least 1 tw each weekend lately with us purposely prolonging some battles to gain experience for a lot of our newer members. Three simultaneous tws requires alot of squad leaders for example who need to know how to lead their squads. Lasting 45 mins vs an equal if not superior opponent with 8 cats vs our 4 is still damn good if you think about it. We are and never will be a pushover for anyone to come attack us whether we have 1 or 3 tws at the same time. The rest of the server may think that they might pull off an upset while dealing with Enrage/multiple tws (or not even bother showing up like RoC did against us 3 weeks in a row when they had 3 tws at the same time). 5/6 tws this weekend so far and we've won 5 of them only leaving us 1 vs 1 tonight against Triad who we beat in surprisingly under 20 minutes friday night with 2/3(I forget) going on at the same time. All in all a successfull weekend with some much valuable experience gained. The rest of the server..bring it if you can but this was your best chance this weekend to pull off an upset (Enrage was not an upset) and aquire a territory from us. Lots of our members these last few weeks have gotten some much valuable experience and we have now groomed multiple squad leaders.

Nah while I hope the server does wait and gives us some uninterupted TWs with you guys, this wasnt their best chance to pull off an upset. YOU only had 5 TWs spread out amoung the entire weekend, thats really not alot.

Wait till the server finally grows some balls and when you have 10+ guilds attacking you each weekend that will be their best chance.

I have also heard with the amount of land Rad owns you guys arent subject to the 3 TWs in a time slot rule. Dunno if this is correct the rules of TW here have been changed alot from the PW MY version, but if it is, be on the look out cause when 10+ guilds do attack you, you could be facing alot more than just 3 TWs at a time.

Cat you may be right about when we finally face 7/10+ in a weekend but let's face it; the rest of the server is too timid to come after us besides those that tried this weekend unless it's some no name guild with 30 members. I'm saying theses last few weeks we had numerous members who had never participated in tws/been a leader/gotten on vent etc. Now they've gotten some much valuable experience under thier belt. Plus we've shown the rest of the server we WILL show up to a tw fully intending to win when we have multiple at once unlike Roc who failed to show 3 weeks in a row when they had that happen to them.

By valuable experience do you mean the usual conga dancing and screenshot sessions? I think if Rad thinks no one else will attack them because their too timid then Rad may be in a rather big shock. Most of the guilds on the server have no problem with losing and are also looking for their own "valuable experience". You keep bringing up RoC, what I find interesting about that is that when RoC made statements like "but we had multiple TWs...we didnt have our strongest team..." they were called excuses but when Rad makes the same statements they are facts or explainations.

Good times ahead.....

No ppl what I'm saying the days of the "conga line" tws have been over for quite some time. We have been prepping for weekends like this for some time now. When we've had multiple tws these last few weekends we've had 140-155 or so online w/99% available for tw(ala not afk cat shop mode). We knew that weekends like these were coming and that we might lose a territory. So we purposely prolonged tws, practiced maneuvers, expanded the vent limit to 200, rotated/groomed squad leaders etc. Yeah if we get 5+ tws simultaneously we'd probably be screwed but I'll be damned if we are just gonna let someone walk right into our base like Roc did 3x. If we get Enraged, Triad, Legion, Evo, and Roadkill all at once we'd definitely be screwed but the chances of this are slim. Plus I'd be the 1st to admit that even if it was 1 vs 1 last night vs Enraged the results would have been the same; just maybe it might have lasted a few minutes longer. Going on the offensive vs Enraged I doubt we could win; some people rely too much on our "superior" strats rather then gaining some much valuable tw/pvp exp and better gear. It may have worked in the past but those days are long gone. The server is maturing and going up against people w/ tt90 gear refined numerous times with multiple phoenixes and a significant portion of our members don't even have tt70 gear finished (don't ask me wth they are doing cuz I can't answer that, all I can say is that they don't put as much emphasis on it like a lot of other people do) is just begging for us to get rolled if we have numerous tws at the same time.

I think RoC made a move to not fight Rad when they had 3 wars in the same night because they were being wise about what they were willing to loose and to who. I was just sad because RoC gave us some really good TWs and it was sad that others had to attack and take that good time from us. I will never blast RoC for not showing up..it was a choice they felt was right.

Not sure about the rumors...personally I hate all rumors but it seems that this one came from inside the guild that was asked to attack us with Enrage's attack. But I take it with a grain of salt.

Yes the 8 CATs will be at our advantage when we go to take back Archo when ready. Believe me when you have to defend against all those CATs be ready...I think that was main factor in loosing that land. We would kill a few CATs and before we could re-group for the next they were already there. I almost pee'd myself when I saw how many CATs where in our HQ at once. lol. Very challenging indeed and one to make you really think your strats over again.

I would like to have a one on one fight with Enrage, but that will not happen. We only had 1 one on one fight with RoC and after that people were bidding on RoC land like they held diamonds on them.

Oh well we do our best, divide what we can to maintain our goal of loosing the least amount of land and I think we did very well this weekend.

Grats on your win Enrage and Grats to my guildys for fighting so hard in all TWs!!!

About the tt70 gear thing,the whole faction(top members who've already been helped to get theirs)should be helping out everyone else with their lower lvl tt's now it isn't just that one persons responsibility to get geared up to help in TW,but theres too much selfishness and not enough smart thinking to go around these days,and thats not for just rad.
