Yup. Wake your warriors. It's time to hold our capital!

[RjBass3]

Good luck.

supose I'd better help you guys out

Oh, the irony if a Davion unit got the tag for the biggest defense contribution

Yeah it would be real shame if certain davion and marik players through intent or incompetence sped up the clans' capture of luthien

If the Combine has an equal number of defenders to the Clan attackers, it would be impossible for outside players to negatively impact your defense.

If the Combine does not have the numbers, unless whole units are dropping and lining up to be slaughtered, any defense will take longer than a turret drop

If you lose the planet, dude, you've no one to blame but yourself

I don't think you or RJbass understand how ghost drops work. 10 minute wait is longer than instant que and a win in five or less.

[stratagos]

I understand exactly how they work; I can do math

A turret drop takes ten + minutes. A real drop takes one + minutes.

I have yet to be in a seriously contested match where light rushes were not involved that was over in nine minutes

It's a bug, and a baffling one. If they lose it, I assume PGI will hard code the attack vector so they get a chance to take it back

In any case, you don't want help? You go save your homeworld, dude. Good luck

Nice bug

[Hippogryph]

Luthien now at 53%. The Smoke Jaguar Co-Prosperity Sphere becomes just a bit more firm.

But, yes, yes, keep your offensives focused on your southern border, Kurita, not your northern. It's what your owners want.

A shameful display.

UPDATE: 99+ defenders in queue! Maybe there's a chance. If Kurita is lucky, Luthien won't fall, and PGI will fix the planet bug. But will this be a wake-up call vs. the Clans, and time for a counter offensive?

UPDATE: Doing my part to defend. If Luthien somehow stays on the defend queue, this is a perfect opportunity to continually attack on Smoke Jaguar -held planets. The PUG queue should stay huge for a 'capital' like Luthien.

Meh. I'm at the point now where I don't give a flying surat what the map says. I just want to fight decent, good sport opponents with my own unit. And that's what I'm going to do. Good luck to all, have fun in Beta.

You were saying? This screen shot was taken on Luthien 2 minutes ago. Certainly doesnt look like Marik/Davion trying to piss in our spring roll (sarcasm here). And 12 trial mech clanners working as a team can easily stomp an IS pug....These guys were pretty good for using stock crap.

I was expecting something like this. Fakeaccounts to fill the queue and then blame us with the real account.

Grats on joining Laio Dervish. See what your old faction is up to?

[dervishx5]

Also, paranoid much?

Edit: oh, yeah, they are doing that. lulz
