Topic: 16 The real history behind the champions
I will write a big big big post to explain our entire round specially for those who call us disohonorable
Hello First of all who am I ???
I am 24 year old unemployed guy who decided that its was a good time to get back on IC I play since round 3 (I think). I joined in day 1 or 2 of the round (perfect timing)
I landed on 16 fam, people seemed active but we had no ally and there was still a lot to do in the planning part. I asked my leader to help with all the problems, and we had a lot of problems...
We had no ally, our map spot was awful in the middle of 3 other fams one of them 2 ticks away from ou HS and aparently hostile and far superior fam. I am talking about our dear allies in 2/3 of the round fam 17 ![]()
We had another problem only 2 bankers in the fam and 1 HandyManPax... (OOC joined later)
Apart of all the problems I loved the people in the family, Sticks (Dominos) left a first good impression first time we talked (automatically knew how good attacker he was), and Arbys looked the kind of guy I can really trust to be active as possible in all planning (I bet he even refused sex with his gf to plan wars and infra with me) Hyuukai was the leader he trusted me and put me in charge of infraplanning, and I started to work things out.
Now the first real problem, 17 was refusing to nap with us because of a system they wanted has part of their core, we had already explored and FB there. During 2 long days of negotiations we decided we needed to do something, me arbys and sticks during and playa (panda express another active as hell attacker) decided to do something, we plan a quick war to force 17 to a PNAP we saved enough to jump bombers for 3 attackers and to jump some wizies to OH and we waited to catch them off guard, in the next night we took 11 of 13 main sourcer planets and took some other easy grabbings, Arbys managed to OH the 2 bankers with planets, 17 had no resources production, only 40% of their income, no savings and less 25 planets. Colo agreed to PNAP with us.
Meanwhile a bigger problem ocurred 07 and 09 explored all around sect 2 we keep ping ponging some planets with them but we had much less infra and no fleet to fight them back properly cause war against 17 in spite of needed stalled our infra.
We kept exploring and builduing and trying to fight back 09 and 07 for around 1 week, and we started to build early defences, in 12 or 13 days we had our family fully portalled, we felt that this early portalling was needed to protect ourselves against 07 and 09 cause a real war was a question of time.
For me this was a crucial moment of the round and affected all galaxy, we allied with 17 and start to clear all 07 and 09 planets from sect 2, they had huge lasered planets all around sect 2, and after we cpff one of einstein fraggle portal (that explored in our outer cores and jumped fleet) he nuked our top bankers with 1 nuke each, he said it was a mistake but we felt we need to really do something against 07.
Most of 09 planets on sect 2 were cleared and they were currently warring with 08 and 01 so we felt that this was the perfect time to attack 07 infra cause when 09 were ready to help them it would be late. We infil a couple of guys and checked that Wizard from 07 add no lasers and almost no ground, and he turned an easy target for our 3 attackers and Burned Waffles (the only attacker in 17 cause colo internet was broken), we took from him around 30 planets in one tick and BAM he was in pmode and went MIA.
Arbys and Dpenguins(White Castle) OH the other bankers and once again we plan a mass raid against a top resourcer (sorry AA) we infil on him and found out that he had few lasers in each planet. So we launch a mass raid from 12 13 ticks aways cause Dragonsoup and Einstein fraggle did a good job and cleared 90% of attackers portals S of our HS
We took a couple of more planets from them while Nightwish was drafted to 17 and used the small core guy strategy destroying a bit more 07 infra.
After this we napped and got 80 planets, 40 from 09 and 40 from 07 for each fam.
After this war the only remaining thing to do was to consolidate our core, clearing all threats in sect 2 and we did it again, together with 17 we consolidated an huge core in sect 2 more then 2/3 of the sect were ours and without any big fam nearby.
This is all that matters and was the key to our victory in this round.
Yeah we farmed 2 families, we farmed 10 cause they attacked us around 20 recently explored planets inside our core they payed with around 250 important planets for us, cause they were in sect 2 and were cleary on safe area.
We kept infrawhoring and farmed 08 alone with the intentions of warring 01 too and to get position to attack 09, but 01 was in a war and abandoned 08 their allies in that moment.
After that we had an huge lead on planets and 95% of them where in a really SAFEZONE, we really farmed 08 cause their planets were really close and were perfect to extend our huge core. After that we infrawhored and saved money expecting for 09 to cancel the nap on us, but they didnt, so we attacked 15 at EOR cause we had a lot of savings and we were bored, I have to complement Jon Jon and Kara from 15 they were really good in this EOR round cause they did hundreds of retakes all alone, avoiding 15 to lose more planets than they did.
I have to thank all my family for this round.
OOC my bitch banker, more than a banker a real friend, KFC(DS) for being the most generous banker I ever met. For hyuukai for his activeness, Arbys for an huge role on diplomatic matters war planning and for being my planet bitch, Sticks for all the experience, I learned a lot with Sticks he is one of the best attackers I ever played with. Playa for loging in and out to trigger and send fleets while he was on parties, Fudgeh, awesome retaker, the guy who struggled in forums to defend our fam and one of my planet bitch, dpenguins for being online in everymoment of the round and specially to Anna, we needed a hot girl to keep us all motivated.
I want to congratulate also a couple of players that did an excellent work this round Burned Waffles, DDK, Lee, Aleph (All for Awesome attacking SKILLS) AA for never quitting and Luster(I bet he had to adapt infraplans everyday during the round)
