PSU - Sanctuary of the NC?

I rarely venture over to the official forums because everything they are discussing now, has already been covered here over the past few months/decades. I went over today and found the NC under attack.

There are very few NC supporters on the official forums, though the above thread gives some good pro-NC coverage. Nominating PSU and similar ilk to be the domain of the NC. Older, serious gamers seem to be gravitating to the NC. This is good news. I would rather have 10 serious gamers as opposed to 100 kids rocketing off in random directions with no particular cause other than to click, click, click away at anything that moves, or doesnt move for that matter.

Ive been looking for some players who find fun in accomplished teamwork. BF1942 almost got me there... almost. That game could be one of the coolest to date if it wasnt for the human factor.

Anyway, the majority of NC support lives here on PSU! I rarely post but I read just about every day. The guys on the PSU forums are the ones I want to team up with on the NC side. Not because of weaponry, skins, or vehicles, but because they seem to be the most dedicated group that is willing to work together.
Brotherhood, is always cool.

New Conglomerate kicks ass.

There are indeed quite a few NC on here

I think we are fairly even tho.

[MrVulcan]

but hay, when 1 of us elite NC soldiers can take out 50-60 avg TR, or vanu soldiers, just how much support do we need?? =P

Plus, our organization as a whole is by far much better, so i see the NC being outnumbered, but being very coordinated, and on the avg, of better skill players.

^ah little padawan, we shall see in due time >:]

When you try and mow me down, and I'm using a shield (woohoo MAX ability) you'll think twice about the TR's abilities to beat the defenses and shotties of the NC.

I wish only the NC, and NC commanders would read these ancient texts. I promise its worth the time researching.

Sun Tzu's the ancient art of war has been around since Jesus was a baby. Used in business, war, and politics. The foundation of all strategies.

NC fo lyfe

NC - Shotguns require skill
TR - Spray and Pray
VS - Gay purple beams

There is such thing as spraying with skill, but the chances of people knowing how to do that with anything but the supressor is unlikley, possibly the cycler too.

I wonder why everyone always assosciates purple with homosexuality...the ACTUAL color of the biggest gay pride organizations is pink. I always thought purple was like a manly version of red.

Bah!

Sun Tzu's ideas are no longer valid. WWI proved that, WW2 Even more.

Now is the time to base our ideals upon the best general of all time. Patton!
(the only site i can think of with his quotes right this second is
http://www.generalpatton.com/
But I have read some of the books on his strategies, and studied his battle plans through out the war. His ideals about war truly are the best ideals on war.

"Wars might be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of the men who leads that gains the victory."

�Fixed fortifications are monuments to man's stupidity.�

�Good tactics can save even the worst strategy. Bad tactics will destroy even the best strategy.�

I base almost all of my strategies upon:

"A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week."

and:

"Attack rapidly, ruthlessly, viciously, without rest, however tired and hungry you may be, the enemy will be more tire, more hungry. Keep punching."

it works =)

Mr Vulcan,

Sun Tzu is still being taught at The Citidel and West Point. I should know. General Patton studied Sun Tzu, as do many business leaders the world over. His talk about chariots, and ox carts is not to be taken literally. It is the PHILOSOPHY of war which is studied, and still the foundation of all modern warfare. This, my friend, is an absolute fact. One of the things Sun Tzu teaches is that you should know what you're talking about before you decide to pick a fight. It is also wise to know who Patton studied under and the methodolgies that guided him.

FOR EXAMPLE
http://www.pressipice.com/patton.htm

In war, then, let your great object be victory, not lengthy campaigns.

-- Sun Tzu, The Art of War


There is only one tactical principle which is not subject to change; it is, �To use the means at hand to inflict the maximum amount of wounds, death, and destruction on the enemy in the minimum amount of time.�

-- General George S. Patton, Jr.

The above quotes mean exactly the same thing.
Or maybe you would like to read the United States Marine corps Basic officer training manual, lesson ONE. In which Sun Tzu and General Patton are both mentioned together and seperately.
http://www.leatherneck.marines.usna....Pubs/b0326.pdf

This above link, used currently by the U.S.M.C., Combat Orders instruction at TBS is a detailed and rigorous package that strives to develop and evaluate a student's ability to arrive at a tactical decision, communicate that decision and execute his plans in a time competitive environment. This course teaches the philosophy of Sun Tzu as well.

Think before you speak.
You must be Vanu, forgetting the past.
Should you require more extra-curricular reading about these two men I would be glad to supply it to you.

Basically Patton constantly quoted Sun Tzu in a less eloquent, more modern, basic, way of speaking. Maybe this is why you relate to Patton as opposed to Sun Tzu, when, in military terms, they followed the same doctrine.

You have been flamed. Feel the burn.

Yep, mature serious gamers...




Honestly does anybody really think their empire will have better or more mature players than an other? Every empire will have every type of cool and lame player, it's just a question of how many of them will there be.

But i do think TR will suck, except the CDL part of it.
