For two whole hours my outfit and I held out with our VS brethren again wave upon wave of TR forces, thanks TR for a great fight, but you couldn't cause us to stalemate with the NC! Battle Report: Allatum had already been disconnected from the VS mainland for God knows how long, but because the VS played well, they were able to hold off both the TR and the NC for notable swaths of time. However, nothing compared to the epic fight that soon followed. My outfit Quantum Dawn joined the fight late to attempt to hold out in the bio lab for however long we needed. It was then that fate intervened: the all continent bio lab event called for us to hold the most bio labs on all continent. For the ENTIRE hour-thirty of the event we held the place like bosses, and it was the most fun I had had in a long time. They pushed us, we pushed them back, first we pushed the NC and the TR as they fought with us and with each other, then we pushed back, taking all three satellites, but then the TR pushed again, this time with more forces and no NC to fight with. Now we were backed against a corner with thirty minutes to go, they had pushed in and taken the shield generator for the SCU down. Only a living shield kept it up, they never blew the SCU, we had too much in there and they couldn't push in, and when the alert ended we jumped for joy. Thanks TR for a great fight!
We would have tied it had it not been for the random server issues in the last few minutes that DC'd most of the NC on Amerish... just saying. Hell, in my outfit only 3 people survived to even collect their xp the server became so unstable. Looks like enough VS survived to hold the cap on 2 of the biolabs however. It was a lot of good fighting and we had to fight back. At one point we almost went down to one biolab and the fact we would have tied it back up had it not been for server issues says a lot. I like how you tell NC to suck it, even though we had VS on the ropes for the last sub-30 minutes and almost stole the thing, while also having to deal with TR as well. Remember this is a 3 way fight. Just enjoy the good fights and respect your opponents, without good opponents, you'd be bored on empty servers.
This thread is perfect to start excuses in. I will take the opportunity though to give a shoutout to the entire server of Waterson for being awesome. I love the TR I fight with, we always put up a good fight wherever we go. The NC here on Waterson may have the pop advantage atm, but they still put up a good fun fight too. The VS have still come into most all alerts fighting very hard, despite almost always being underpopulated (at best, everything is even on a continent). Even so the VS have won some alerts due to being sneaky and aggressive little bastards and considering their current situation they deserve those hard earned victories more than any TR and NC can claim. So good job WATERSON. Or Jaegarson if you are so inclined. Regardless of the name, Jaegar and Waterson seems to me to have been the best of the server mergers. I have not played too much on other servers, but when I do things always feel weird and unbalanced in population. Not to say we don't have our imbalances, but ours don't seem to affect our metagame as much as it does on other servers. There is usually one continent owned by each faction and everyone always puts up a decent fight in defense and attack. Go Waterson!
I didn't mean for you to take that the wrong way! I mean to say suck it because we just barely won, although we had SIX biolabs meaning you couldn't have won by taking just one, you'd have to take two, that's what made this fight so amazing, I will remember it for a long time after. I do respect the NC, and I mean to say "suck it" with only the greatest respect, and I do not represent an NC hater in any way saying so! Thanks! ^_^
We were taking one and so was TR which meant we would have tied at 4 a piece and TR having one. They were actually taking two and so were we, but the timer was about 2 minutes too short on the other two labs, and then the server **** the bed on top of that. It would have and should have been a tie in the end, but I still got almost 8k exp out of it, plus all the EXP I got running around reviving and healing people.
Saturday night's Biolab alert and Sunday night's Techplant alert were some of the most fun and intense battles I've seen in a long time. GG to all sides for sure! The 3-way fight at Allatum Biolab on Saturday was insane with a large majority of all 3 faction's Indar population fighting over the same base. Too bad the server couldn't handle the awesome and crapped out with about 5 mins left in the alert.
