I had planned on taking a Kurita Loyalist Contract for CW 3 in hopes and prayers that CW 3 will mean something, but you may be able to purchase our expeditionary force once the Kodiaks come out.

NS is absolutely loyal -

To the highest bidder.

D'oh!

Should hire you to ghost a planet a night out of Liao.

If NS always stays on the attack, then this could work out (i.e. NS would not face its expeditionary force in CW3.0)

With Loyalists voting on only a single Attack Vector every 24-hours, It will be interesting to see how the Northern Factions (HK! HS and FRR) vote their Attack Vectors vice just who the Southern Factions decide to attack.

Will they keep it #AtHome amongst themselves or will they drain defensive resources from their Northern Inner Sphere brethren by cherry-picking Northern border systems?

I just can't wait for CW3.0...

For game play I'd likely attack Davion for a few weeks just to get the clans into it before bringing down the hammer. I'd expect FRR to jump straight to the clans since the clans always seem to think FRR is tasty .... Which I doubt works out well since I'd consider FRR the strongest unit led faction in the game now.

Without a doubt FRR has their CW tightly wired, I can see my Freelancer account dropping with FRR quite often if Freelancers are even given a choice of where they drop.

It will be good to see how Loyalist Unit and Faction numbers work out now that CW3.0 will shake out the ranks, revitalizing some Units and Factions. I hope PGI puts out some Faction metrics at some point in the first week or so.

I'll be running this account as a Loyalist CSJ, my Connor Sellock account as a Mercenary House Kurita and my Phaelon Wolf account as a Freelancer... I am really interested how the three careers will stack up.

Has a date been set yet in April for the CW3.0 patch?

Allegedly next patch.

That was their position at the time.

I feel like a lot of this discussion is moot... pretty sure Russ said that there would be NO map reset for CW3. Maybe I'm wrong, though.

[Jarl Dane]

He said there would be no event. But I don't recall him stating there would be no map reset. Given all the changes I'd be super surprised if they didn't reset the map.

I'd be a bit shocked myself if the map wasn't reset. Frankly they need to figure that out amongst several dozen other issues they need to figure out. If the map isn't reset I might as well take NS to Kurita now and start tagging planets.

I look at it this way ~ so much of CW Phase 3 is about Loyalists choosing attack corridors and Unit gaining benefit with each planet tagged.

Much of CW Phase 3 falls through if there is not a map reset. I my opinion there must be a map reset and it is highly likely that PGI will do so.

With everything going on of course there will be a reset. They can't introduce tagged worlds having value without resetting the map. I can't picture anyone saying that would be a good idea.

Yes they can.

It just would be a really bad idea, but when did that stop PGI?

Nice drops today evening, FRR.

Thanks for listening to our calls. Teamwork is the path to glory and plunder!

I call shens.

Sightings of NS in the wild are all rumor.

If you want to play with us in CW, your best chances might be during the EU timezone.

Outrageous! This is a clear breach of FRR traditions, I find this corrupting influence offensive.

FRR warriors are supposed to get high on mushroom infused mead and swing randomly in glorious red haze until the memory lapse sets in and they wake up maybe with a new planet and some weird souvenirs.

I think we need to call a ting to adress this issue.
