View Full Version : Will TR ever learn?

Every night TR goes to Amerish. And every night the same thing happens.... we get sandwiched between VS and NC around Cetan/Ikanam. Is our empire just full of people afflicted with short term memory loss? I mean hell, not only does it happen every night, but generally SEVERAL times in one night. Because once we get pinched at Cetan we fall back up north and start the cycle over again.
I'm sure you VS will be happy to know that Amerish will have one less TR there now. I'm gonna stay clear of the continent for awhile. I'm rather embarassed as I'm sure you NC and VS get a good chuckle everytime you do it to us.

No offense, but fuck the NC. They get their asses wiped off the continent soon enough so it's TR v VS. The main problem is that most people get tired of lag, but I don't don't see what's wrong with it. TR go there to get away from the jackhammers and their AA MAXs for a while...we eventually go back to Hossin or Cyssor..even our backyards when they cap the empty bases.

Atlas,
I guess you and I must be playing at different times man, cuz when I play the NC don't get wiped off the Continent. They used to, but lately they haven't. Otherwise I wouldn't be mentioning this at all.
We start taking bases up north around Onatha. We move east towards Azeban. Then move south towards Kyoi. Now generally during all this the resistance is light. We move through it pretty quickly(and also cap XP isn't much). It's when we get down to Kyoi and start moving west that we start hitting the heavy resistance. By Cetan its generally VERY heavy. This is when the NC slip in and take Verica. Then they send some folks south to Cetan to harass us while we are fighting the VS. But they also send folks up north to Azeban and start taking bases up North.
While we battle for Cetan and that 5k XP, the NC pretty much take our northern front with little resitance. Before you know it we are fighting for Cetan... the VS have Ikanam and the NC have everything else and we get shut down. Normally someone takes a tower up near Onatha/Qumu just before we get wiped down south. We all fall back up north and start the cycle over again.
I realize most of TR go to Amerish to avoid hearing *Chucka Boom Chucka Boom Chucka Boom* all night, but if thats the case then we need to *** the NC in the bud at Verica rather than let them get a good foothold.

OMG THANKS FOR POSTING THIS CEASE I THINK THE EXACT SAME THING!!!!!!!! It's so annoying everyone is an xp whore and their always trying to get that big 5k hack. While the opposing zergs meet each other at cetan/ikanam, vanu sometimes get onatha from ikanam and spread westward until we're sandwhichd. that is if the NC arent in the picture.

True, when TR get's to Cetan shit hits the fan, fast. But the NC do sneak in from the north, then zerg we're flanked from the NC, and VS zerg. Hmmm....Verica is a problem isnt it??

Cetan and Ikanam will always be very tough, and normally long battles because the VS Sanc Warpgate is right there. The VS are able to mobilize Magriders, Gals, Reavers, and Liberators to the fight even though we have all the Tech Plants on Amerish.
Verica is key base to have for a few reasons:
1> Holding Verica essentially keeps the NC out of Amerish which is why most of the TR are in Amerish in the 1st place.
2> NTU supply. Ikanam and Cetan are not only tough bases to cap, but tough to hold as well. NTUs go fast when we fight for these bases. Having Heyoka and Verica secured gives us a relatively safe line the Solsar Warp Gate from the Cetan/Ikanam area for our ANTs. Also Verica is an AMP Station, which would assist us from draining NTUs so quickly.
When the NC take Verica not only do they take an Amp station out of our lattice, but they also make Ant runs to the Solsar WG very difficult. Then add on the fact that they go after Azeban after Verica... they also take our ability to Gal drop Ants from us as well.
So does this mean some poor squad has to babysit Verica? Not really. There can be some easy things done that don't force a squad to sit a Verica and *wait* for the NC. It's just a matter of getting a squad or two of TR to put tactical priorities over XP priorities.

Not to mention solsar, I don't know all the names of bases quite yet but im getting close on the major conts. For 3 days in a row, we pushed the NC all the way back to Horus and Amun, where we get hacks on the bases but 9 times out of 10 they get rid of it or like 5-10 minutes after the hack is done. I guess people don't understand whats going on, because they still fight at some base in the south even though our bases are falling everywhere.
I don't get people.
And btw, I ran into a hacker, as in a real hacker that cheats.
Well he was most likely a cheater...here's the story.
I logged off at about 3 pm or so but I logged back on in like 30 mins, and when I logged back on the NC had a hack on the base I was at (Chuku, Cyssor). And I ran into the CC, expecting to find a quick death, but instead saw nothing. So I shot off 6 rocklet rounds into the room and didnt hit anything. I so I figured they abandoned it or something, I was about to rehack it when I noticed I didnt hear the door close behind me. I turned around and saw the door open, just sitting there. ANY GOOD cloaker will tell you the most important thing about being stealthy is not making stupid mistakes. This cloaker was crouching in the doorway, I didnt see him but I knew he was there because the door wouldnt close, I killed him with 2 rocklet shots. So I rehacked the base and waited for the cloaker to return. This time not only did he open the door and sit there, but he ran to the spot, revealing him with audio amp. Again I killed him in the same way, and then I sent him a tell : "Audio amp and eyes you dumbass." This was a mistake, because within 1 1/2 minutes my connection had crashed and wouldnt connect for hours. Now this may seem just a coincedence, but it hasnt disconnected like that in over 2 weeks. Just a straight disconnect, no lag, no fps problems no nothin. I re-booted my comp 2 times. Finally I had to reset my connection toally, un-plug, let it rest, enable, and finally connect again. Now it's fine, but I doubt I'll call anyone a dumbass from now on.......even though he was.
So if you see the NC guy named Skanker or something like I reccomend NOT pissing him off.

HAHAHA its not the TR fault we get owned on amerish.. its cuz the NC are pu$$y's.... we go and fight the VS around cetan and ikanam and then nc pops out into verica, and trailes behind us in all the EMPTY bases, then we get sandwiched and have nowhere to go.... st00pid

Actually today people in my squad were griping about going to Amerish because we're ALWAYS there defending it...we know we're gonna take it back so why do NC and TR even try? Just leave it alright?

Never :p why the hell don't we all fight on fucking Searhus? It's in between all the sancs, all empires have a link to it (from backyards)....and it's pretty damned cool.
