Mighty_Alex Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 So the Brits took all french holdings on Haiti and the French are like: Oh, sure, let's have an alliance with them. Brilliant!
nakorbc Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Yep now we have but one front!!! It is tactically brilliant. And..... The Danes are caught in the middle of an alliance.
Reki Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 In the meanwhile, congrats to our Swedish allies! Salut! yep, they got fast pattens to run forever. Congrats, sweden
Lytse Pier Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) Saying "The Swedes start a major offensive" is like saying "The House of Representatives is in agreement", you can always find a Democrat or Republican that keeps ventilating his "negatives/own opinions". National unity in this game is an illusion under the current game mechanics and probably remains that even with revised ones. I doubt also if you want to change that. This game is a clan-based MMO which means one has to work hard to reach a concensus gentium between the kindred and aligned clans of the nations. So, one who "speaks for the nation" with terms like "We, the Dutch", "The Swedes start ...." or "Our British fleet....", is most likely speaking for a majority of their aligned players within the clan or collaborating clans. If the interpreting is the responsibility of the sender or the receiver of the message can be a fun spectacle on these forums and, many trolls and flamers have a field day about it. Most of the times realizing who sent the message and to whom it is adressed can help in understanding the impact it can have on you and your clans gameplay. We will see how the Swedish Unity will hold, but I am sure it will be as challenging as in any other Nation. Edited February 14, 2016 by Lytse Pier
IronClaw Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 (edited) You have been warned. Oh noes! Is that RP-warned or RL-warned? I think the US nation's players are intelligent enough to understand that what I say to you personally (well, your forum-RP-personality of course) has no reflection on the relation between the US and the VP. They will understand that a turncloak (especially one that sticks around in happy times and runs when the going gets tough) will receive little respect from his former team. I am a little puzzeled by your comment about "childish insults" though. Since you introduced the whole idea of it being ok to insult people as long as you were roleplaying, how could you ever be insulted by me? You *do* understand that this is all forum RP, right? I fully respect you as a real life person. I don't actually think you're a coward, a turncloak or have a quitter's mentality. That's just how you play your in-game character. So take it easy, it's just a game, no need to threaten anyone. Lots of love, rainbows and pots of gold to you Piet! May your cannonfire strike ever true, and the winds be always in your favor!

Mighty_Alex Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Yep now we have but one front!!! It is tactically brilliant. I wonder what would your man Napoleon think about this perverted alliance with the british? But I guess some players don't give a toss about historical background in the first place.
Galileus Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 But I guess some players don't give a toss about historical background in the first place. Uhm... do you expect people to set up battles and who wins beforehand because "historical background"? Well... good luck if so. 1
IronClaw Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Uhm... do you expect people to set up battles and who wins beforehand because "historical background"? Well... good luck if so. Oh lord... that would mean the end of all alliances, since at some time in the past any one of the nations was probably historically at war
Galileus Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Oh lord... that would mean the end of all alliances, since at some time in the past any one of the nations was probably historically at war And just imagine the salt of discussions who wins what battle... and if that constitution that was supposed to sink was saved "accidentally" or accidentally Nation news would be much easier though. "Tomorrow we fight for port X. We will loose that many ships..."

So see you back in game in.... 2037!" 1

Swieb Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Oh oh I want to answer!!! As an ally of the Brits, and since honestly the Brits own language is 40% French/Latin, and because I like to have fun I'll answer. Desolation comes from latin desolatio. It means to abandon. If the Danes were desolated then they would have no land no players, or at least would have left the Danish faction. Hehe. I love languages. May the Franko-British alliance thrive. Btw Brits, want to be rules by France again? It worked well after the Norman invasion I do recall?!? Just kidding. Ok maybe a little? It looks there is no Franko - British alliance. It looks to me that we have in the game a still hidden US-French alliance that will be finally directed against the British after the Dutch and the Swedish are destroyed by the French. The Danes have reasons to fear the British then. That Scandinavian war is especially serving the US- French agenda, and it looks that the Swedish are expecting to maintain themselves as a French protectorate. I think it is much more likely that Sweden shall be stabbed by the French after the Dutch fraction is destroyed. That will happen relative soon now the French took control of the line La Orchilla - Paritu to take as soon as possible all Dutch ports east of the line La Orchilla - Caracas. Finally in reaction of IronClaw, blaming the Pruisians to run away.. the nearby Dutch ships were run away (showing their Dutch courage) when I (sailing in a snow) was attacted by 12 French players in front of freetown Cano Macareo.. luckly for me four Pruisian ships sailed out to help me with much succes. Again, thanks for that support!

Powderhorn Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 US-French alliance? That afterwe kicked them out of Louisiana? I'm not even sure if we have contact with the French anymore. They're literally on the opposite side of the map from us now.

Again, thanks for that support! Wait working with the US? Umm nope we lost Louisiana to them. Do you really think we'd have some grand plan to smash everyone against us? The Swedes helped us and we will now help them. We don't Use our allies like your suggesting. We are honorable and will support Sweden. If you got attacked by French players tell a French leader so we can address it.
Warsics Van Vrieze Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 after the Dutch fraction is destroyed. You mad bro?
Dalriaden Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 I wonder what would your man Napoleon think about this perverted alliance with the british? But I guess some players don't give a toss about historical background in the first place. The same historical background that see's Constitutions in British French and Spanish fleets? Or made up towns like Bensalem? The novel depicts a mythical island, Bensalem, which is discovered by the crew of a European ship after they are lost in the Pacific Ocean somewhere west of Peru. The minimal plot serves the gradual unfolding of the island, its customs, but most importantly, its state-sponsored scientific institution, Salomon's House, "which house or college ... is the very eye of this kingdom." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Atlantis
Francis Tabernac Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Yeah, if you're down to condemning the capture of towns or signing of NAPs/Alliances because they're historically inaccurate, you may as well just move on to the next thread.
King Leonidas Posted February 15, 2016 Posted February 15, 2016 Yestdaynight, the united swedish Clans on PvP One started a 3 Attacks on Danish Ports. Every Major Clan and many free Captians joined the togehter for one big Fleet. Myself, as a Member of WASP, was assinged with all of WASP and our new Friends form SAAA to the shielding Group wich backed up the Attack on Fort Baai. It start out as a easy Job, the Dane's were attacked on multiple Front form several Nations and they did not send any segificant backup to Baai. The Conquest was almost finisth when a Major RUS Fleet appeared close to Baai.. 6 3rd and many big Frigates. Our Side had Ceberus, Renomèe and a Constiution. We knew the Battle was lost before it begun. Neverless we attacked. Our Task was to stop any Backup and delay them, not to win. So the brave Captains of WASP, SAAA backup by free Captains and people of BL engaged the far suprior enemy Fleet. I think the BR was 3000ish against 8000ish.. The Fleets spawned a stone throw anway form each other..Wich did favour as at all. The battle started and well, my Ceberus blow up after 4 mins... :-) We lost that Battle, but we did delay them enough, so they were not able to join the Port Battle. I guess we gonna call it a Tactical defeat and a strategical Victoury! After this Major Battle, we assambeld some ships to raid near Danish Ports and to enjoy the rest of the Evening. This was my view of a Great Evening.. Captain Meraun, WASP-Inc. we have The pretty Same circumstances . Albiet we had no support from Fellew Clans XD
