Super Powers

I don't even allow myself to think that a self-respecting person, even a leader of one of the biggest factions in the server, would say such thing just to get some attention. That would ruin his/her reputation in the forums and in game which will actually bring to tons of pages of spam and stuff here, and a lot of arguing in game (I have experience with such things in another online game which makes me think that it wont be different if such thing happens here).

Through page 2 and 3 all I see is flaming towards Aubree and maybe only one person in her defense, which I think is really shameful for all the people who said a word towards her. It's bad because they can't get that she IS THE LEADER of Equinox and she IS TAKING the decisions that must be taken. Comments about the squad participating in the TW that day wont bring to nothing good. The only post I appreciate on page 4 is made by Kasumi member of Calamity (regarding her signature) and it says :

all unnecessary drama

Yes Shadowfire, I`m agreed, and this is not only with the MMO games. People have full rights to ask/criticize/get asked/answer etc. in the forums. But I understand a question like "How comes you don't know what your squads were doing" as a complete attempt for trolling. Also yesterday before I went to bed and right after Duke shouted who attacks who in TW, a lot of troll messages were sent in WC. Now, how should I understand this ?

I didn't said you are defending trolling. I`m just trying to find an explanation.

Dynasty is a super power? roflmao. Dynasty is not any more strong than Tempest, Kindrid, Inversion and maybe Exclusive. All it has is a piece of land that it is struggling week after week in a turtle to hope to defend.

Since Arishock was kind enough to highlight points and reply to them, I'll pay with the same kindness:

Personally, it amuses me to see a Dynasty member saying that an alliance with Equinox has an strategical thinking that goes into TW that's important (I assume) for both factions.

Let's have a quick reality check. A new small faction rivalry has been rising: Tempest versus Dynasty and their 3 hour wars are becoming quite attractive for small faction seekers, because it's not the crystal bashing attacking Equinox or Calamity means to them. It's definitively not the cakewalk Calamity has been getting for offensive TWs as of lately.

But who's tempest? Yes, tempest has a strong core of members, but you and me know who is acting as game changers for the tempest-dynasty wars:
Aujami, xXZeroXx, flowflow, AznTank of those that come to my head just this past minute... Aren't they all in Equinox?
What an awesome alliance! you have to help them attack Calamity on one day, so that they have a chance of taking a land, while the next day, your TW expenses go to hell during 3 hour defenses because lets face it. Tempest leader is not dumb, he wants his faction to take land, he will use his players to take the land from Dynasty... and who wouldn't? So who's the tool here? Tempest or Dynasty? I mean, if Equinox really wanted to help you as ally, they would at least transfer all those players to your faction, as I'm pretty sure Equinox can afford to share 10 fills for Dynasty and oh boy, those 10 extra bodies may be the last push you need to take a land from Cala. b:shocked

This rivarly of Tempest and Dynasty is a great thing for your recruitment adds, 3 hour TWs are a rare thing to have, people seems attracted to it, I wouldn't risk my only fun TW today by helping Equinox, while it is clear for everyone else but to Wacky and Paco that they're being used as meatshields. I told Smexy yesterday. If it was to me, I would take Raging tides from Equinox, and right away, I'd max bid on Dynasty just to wipe them off the map again. Before this weekend, I was all down for wiping Equinox first and 5 weeks of 3 hour fun TWs for Dynasty from now, give Dynasty and the DW server a grand finale. Now, I want to see them gone as soon as raging tide falls. Hell, I know many cala members that will fund that bid themselves... So what is the benefit?

Now, What has Dynasty gained from attacking Calamity?
Before Equinox allied with Dynasty, Dynasty had 5-6 lands to the south of the map. Now they have 1. Equinox took a big chunk of them too. Before Equinox allied Dynasty, Dynasty turnout to TW was of over 60 people, and not the weak stuff your own members and officers have admitted to have in this forums.

So excuse me is I fail to see the super secret awesome TW strategy.



For someone who seems to be pretty clear about "strategy". This is typical lack of tactics at its best. Assuming that because something worked in the past it will work again, completely disregarding what your enemy may have done during the time you haven't been using it, just proves how many levels away is your TW preparation from the one made by a real TW faction.

Wake up! the EQ+Dyna attacks were not successful because of attendance. In my opinion, a 2 month trend that goes to hell soon after can't be successful at all. Successful it's what happened with Nefarius, where they went from a full red map to a third of it... The fact is, this weekend, Equinox kept showing their 80, you kept your normal attendance too. So did we... We have now learned exactly how and how many do we need to hold/turtle and wipe most factions that come scheduled with Equinox. 3-4 months ago, with a better attendance than the one we had this last weekend, TW coordinators back then would've decided that the best way to go, was to give Vanquish a land and push B path on Dynasty and full turtle Equinox (as we actually did in 2 ocasions). This time, we didn't. Next time, we won't either. You played your chips, you went all in, you lost. Nothing you do will change that.

Also, a "short" TW, is never a "good" TW. Pretty much because that people in your faction eventually gets tired of getting destroyed in 5-10 minutes. Yes the few loyal ones will always remain so, this applies to any TW faction in any server. But your TW attendance depends on those you and many others may tag as "glory seekers, pay seekers, traitors" and what's best about them, is that they hate losing. You can save all the expenses you want to save up with a short war. But you will never get enough people to use the money you have saved on.

Today 8 minute (not 10) steamroll as Dsholder named it happened not because of Calamity power force. Equinox decided to show a full 80 to Inversion instead of to Calamity. We have friends in Inversion that reported to us, Equinox made a full aggressive push to their crystal, and when it was at 2m HP, they removed catapults from Inversion base and proceeded to steamroll with a full 80, the small (yet very threatening) force that Inversion has to show for TWs and farmed kills at base spawn and crystal for about 20 minutes as a way to "punish" Inversion for "ganking" with Calamity... How does this fit the "Map Sharing" philosophy?

I'm sorry, but sharing a map goes both ways, if Calamity (my main rival) is attacking me, and someone else wants to take my mirages, by all means, go for them, worse case scenario, we can take them back (as we did with Dynasty). best case, we will try to wrap that TW up fast and easy without risking the main event so we can support the Calamity defense. I can assure you today in this thread, that if one day we're unable to defend a territory from Vanquish or Dynasty, we will give it away to either faction before even considering not showing again to Equinox. If it happens otherwise, I'd be the first one to leave Calamity, followed by many others that think just like me. Instead, Equinox decided to humiliate a faction just because they tried to achieve the same fun and goals Dynasty and Vanquish tried to achieve just a day ago by helping them. Inversion was made out of ex-Equinox players, many Equinox members had their alts there long ago, to a point, they were considered by the server as an ally (if not a baby) faction. In my opinion Dynasty and Vanquish should be more careful on who they ally with... or at least clear the air up a bit about the future of the map, Tempest and TW attendance. Cause what Equinox says, its clearly not what Equinox does.

I'm sorry if I'm blunt, but I'm truthfully annoyed, who are you trying to fool? This so called alliance, doesn't benefits Dynasty at all, you can fool your members, but not the rest of the server, and Dynasty members, if you really believe this alliance will be any fruitful for you... you guys are as blind as GM about TW pay changes b:chuckle
