Like drop pirates as ally after you made an agreement for then eat back your words  becouse you where scared your sweden master would be pissed off? if they didt not believe your deceiving?

Denmark had agreements with KOTO and RUBLI, never with SORRY. Yet you came to us and demanded a port so that you could attack Sweden in their home territory because you couldn't defend your own home waters. We had a deal with the Swedes and we have no intention of breaking our word. And we had no incentive anyway to help the SORRY clan which never helped us.

Precisely!

One day though, when timers are re-implemented, US will have to meet equal forces - I don't think you are prepared for that. :)

You realise timers make nothing change. You attack in early EU afternoon time, the US and co. attack in late night/early morning US time. Timers are set correspondingly.

 

People seem to fail to understand that, for instance, I always advocate to set night timers on any ports we (the Brits) had taken against the Danes and co. so as to avoid daily flipping of ports. Also cause, fuck you.

The very idea that I am supposed to fear the Danish, or any other enemy for that matter, inside a port battle doesn't really earn much traction over here. I don't even like port battles in general, nothing remotely enjoyable about them once you've done the first hundred or two.

So, almost all of the ports we have attacked so far at have been met with equal forces. You forget quickly that it was the US that was the first on pvp1 to take a port with land and fully defended. The US is not what it used to be. It is no longer rebuilding. It is rebuilt. So, what is your point again?

Yeah almost, except for the last two night flips, you outnumbered. Savannah was not even a battle, we lost 1 guy, rest was just base capture due to numbers.. Also, you only engaged a mixed force from our whole alliance in these night attacks, mixed from all nations. Not the DK-NO fleet, because most of us are asleep. Uuh, you're rebuild but you fight only night on workdays - whats your point again?

like the times we have attacked savanah as a single pb? excluding the one time we didnt show up due to a rogue clan running georgia hostility

Lies or misinformed.. I was in Savannah PB 4 times in the first weeks of January where no enemy showed, except for a few who entered to troll about how late it must have been for us and that you guys would keep doing this.. It was actually your very own King of Crowns, so I guess the rouge clan doing all these things must be WO. The 5th attack was real, although you lost. The final two attacks, on a monday 2AM together the current base-cap=win mechanic, you win due to numbers, not in actual fight. You never attack in weekends, you are deliberate avoiding combat with the danish by doing that.

ohh you beat ragtag fleet of who ever shoved up, not the rus-rdnn fleet and we all know we are among the best in this game at what we do. even now when we are not playing your are still afraid of attacking the danish ports. i have seen all day how much hate there is against us but still no one dares attack us

Mate, nobody can be arsed doing hostility missions. And I always say the best way to beat the Danes is not to fight them in a straight fight. Kite them, firebomb them, screen them, do whatever the hell you want but avoid fighting in any sort of 1 to 1 ship brawl.

And guess what!

It works.

And all of these is OK and viable tactics. Screening just makes it impossible for us to reach PB, again due to lower numbers. The the US use nightflip which is no good in workdays for any of the small EU nations on purpose - we have jobs you know.. That's why we want timers so we can keep these night attacks from both sides to weekends.

why would someone choose to fight an enemy how they want you to fight them?

This is a game, a hobby and these attacks in workdays are not the usual movie "hitting the enemy while they sleep" because we are not in a camp somewhere, nor in the 1800 century. It's just US players merely using a flaw in the game to do night flips, where no one is online, except US.

And US dont see any problems well pff. Its quite fun to hear them "the world is round" and sandbox bla bla. Regional defence time should be set by defenders. Attackers can pick the day then.

Again, I'd just say that the best way to reinvigorate the game and, hell, actually enjoy it would be to stop taking RvR so damned seriously.

 

we just like port battles, it not our fault that you suck at it. and we know you fear us and despite you your lame excuses about why you don't like us the main reason is because you cant beat us.

ooc gonna have to accept its a global game at some point we deal with the same issue. infact id prefer to wake up mid night than miss work

We dont have to accept that ONE nation is roaming around in the night hours, doing night flips ONLY in workdays. No. Then ordinary working people cannot have this hobby.

Azu, I don't particularly give a fuck about what you think, or who you think fears you. I've never denied that the RUS/RDNN fleet are good- but don't blow smoke up your own arse. I've rarely ever seen you lot fight in the OW, period, outside of Port Assaults/Defence.

ooc well when mechanics are set winning a port battle could secure it for week or more against further attacks. wouldnt it be great one night having to wake up defend and win and be done with it for 2 weeks?

No becasue that would negate portbattles whatsoever.. It would be nice having these late night things in weekends.

It's not our fault your allies don't show up to screen for you...

I would go as far as to say your alliance has more dedicated port battle players than the Dutch/British/US alliance put together. You just don't seem to help each other very well; for example, I can't remember the last time I saw a relevant amount of Spanish players screening for any of the southern or eastern PB's.

Having timers would be even more annoying for the Dane alliance btw. The Brits would just capture ports in EU time and set them to US defence timers.

4 nations with large groups of 4+ languages is alot of hoops to jump through to get a message across than 2 running mostly 1 language, and holding the edges rather than the centre makes for very long trips to set up faraway outposts.

And personally at least, I find effective screening to be helluva boring with just chopping sails at max distance against impossible odds, it kinda sucks to have to be bad at something in order to have an interesting fight.

That's something I was figuring might have contributed to the losses the other night- communication issues due to language barriers. For our part, we have English speakers, Germans, Dutchmen, and people from the north of England (who arguably speak a different language), so getting instructions across to someone who isn't particularly proficient in your language (or you in his) can be quite a task.

We have Dutch, German, American, Polish, Brazilian, Ukrainian and Czechoslovakian players. We know those hoops. And all in the Dutch nation alone, minus the Brazilians.

I meant for the EU timezone fights and getting screeners, I don't think it is at all applicable to those battles since they were within easy reach of each nation, everyone knew that people were desperately needed and no screening is used anyway - for those its purely a matter there of who even wants to do em, clearly not many.
