Alright guys and girls.

We signed up FRR KNOWING it would be an uphill fight from the start.

We signed up KNOWING the Clans would bully us first.

We signed up KNOWING other IS houses would take advantage of the above.

And unlike other Clans/Houses WE arent crying about it !!!!!! :D

We need offense and coordination.

I have an idea to put the Bears on stalemate at least.

Two parts:

Zerg rush seems to work quite well if everyone is on board and the enemy is less coordinated.

Instead of defending a planet, why not defend only key points and simultaneously attack their unguarded planets?

We can play this just like out Viking ancestors of old...Raid and pillage. We take a planet, we leave it.

It has to be coordinated and FAST. Faster we cap planets, the faster we can leave them.

Drop, cap.
Drop, cap.
Drop, cap, they show up.
We then drop elsewhere. This may also spread them out to let the other 'Great' houses take advantage.

We might be able to get the other Clans to hit the Bears if weakness is perceived. CSJ is crying about loss now, they might try to take some easy Bear pickings.

Longboats and fire, friends. Longboats and fire.

Ill be on tonight and will try to TS to get this rolling.

Actually I beleive we have taken quite a few things from you. and for the record the wolfs have taken nothing from us. If FRR doesn't realize that it's best opportunity for survival is turning against those houses that would call themselves your allies ( in decree only and not in action) and expand towards terra to secure a stronger foothold then you have effectively backed yourselves into a corner. Yes a 1 front war is easier to fight from a resource perspective, but it also offers you only 1 chance for success. If I were FRR I would look to my left at all those planets in blue. Some of them would look nice within the confines of the FRR border.

Good thing you aren´t FRR then. I dont like what you would do to the republic if you where on our side.

The cease fire timing flips need adjusting, Maybe they should have cease fires every 6-8 hours, and flip the planet based on who has who has the most combined ticks from the day's 3 'ceasefires'.

I think this would be simple and easy for PGI to do, as is, it is to easy to game the planet flips by simply wave attacking in the 2 or 3 hours before the ONLY ceasefire flip.

Seems that we as ASE Mercs need to play 24hrs/day to carry the whole republic. C'mon, you can do better.

The Phoenix Legion also fought entirely at Leoben yesterday, perhaps we need to coordinate our efforts more to hold the Borders.
Looks like most of the regular units currently try to fight the DC or LC...

We could really need North American Allies to finish our attacks before the Ceasefire.

Yes, we need atleast 2 1st classed front-line units to NA if we're gonna make it.
We EU can start the rumble, but NAs need to carry it on and uphold it until CF kicks in.

Kind of stupid that we can push a planet to 11 wins during EU-TZ without much trouble, then the chicken muricans that picked the most easy path possible still can take it back just because they have a TZ advantage.

Most annoying Thing at the Moment is that fixed Deadline that is perfect for North American Players and forces European Players to play from 2 to 5 in the Morning.

If I find Time I will support you against those Teddybears ;)

Could we create a continouos "tidal wave" on attacks?
Started by Varagian guards (they are 1TZ before us), then ASE followed by Phoenixes and onto few NA-units?
That should be effective, IF NAs are up to the task.
