Also just had a member of a Davion attacking team hide out of bounds on their last mech, delaying the game by about 5 minutes. Classy.

Report that.

Hiding out of bounds is, for all intensive purposes, cheating. It's exploiting a bug.

Report it.

And we got flipped by ghost drops again...

You know that ghost drops contributed to the win you got too, right? Today and the prior days.

Which is okay - it's something every faction deals with and it represents differences in population on a world.

I'm all for making ghost drops take longer to queue up or whatever but they are a facet of the game that represents population disparities *on a given world*. We lost Warlock because we recognized odds were slim of pulling it out, so we all moved to No Return, where we made a difference. You guys did similar stuff the other day, shut us out completely and it was well done and well played.

Every single side and faction has won and lost matches and worlds with them to some greater or lesser degree.

I'm not sure how much ghost dropping was done on Warlock, when we started playing on it at around 10:30 AM MST there were only two attacking zones owned by Liao. I had guys playing on it fairly steady all day until it became clear that the Davion focus had shifted to No Return.

During my time playing this morning and afternoon at non prime times the queue on Warlock was fairly even at about 24 a side and we didn't have one empty drop happen to us.

I checked in during lunch around 12:30 MST and we had a good number of blocks and the queue showed about 36/36

Figures it was a HHoD player. Perhaps their leadership should tell their players that this can and should get them kicked from the unit???

[Ace Kaller]

Need additional people at Teng, they're starting to ghost it

As a given rule I'd say someone being a jackass in chat I'd send to the unit leader. if someone is actually exploiting the rules (like hiding out of bounds) that's a cheating issue and should go to support. Name and Shame is never good but that sort of stuff needs a 0 tolerance approach in CW. CW is already no holds barred and can be legitimately ruthless that way - I have no objection to people doing tar bit tactics to try and pin another unit in a match. When someone crosses a line and exploits things like out of bounds not killing them to do it, I'd say send it to Support and let them deal with it. We have a lot less rules in CW and IMO should thus be enforced more rigidly.

Do you boys wanna come defend your planets? The Legion is looking to steal your women and drink your booze, turret drops are so boring.

[Vas79]

Pug hold that thought, I have some **** to take care of in town for a couple hours them I'm gonna round up the boys. You tell PL that Vas is coming and Hells comin with me.

[xX PUG Xx]

Sweet, unfortunately the tired Scotsman will be in his bed in a couple of hours but I'm sure the rest of the boys and girls will be there

[trashcanman]

All hands on deck for Randar. They're trying to take it i nthe last stretch of the night.

[MingTheMerciless]

Well done to [APOC] for grabbing RANDAR. Though we're far from being safe. Currently the att/def queue is empty.

I was on RANDAR with some chaps from [GS] around 02:00 AM GMT and held off [ACES] - damn, they're a good team; pretty well coordinated and their focus fire was scary. They came in Lights, Heavies, Heavies/Mixed and then Lights. Almost blew OMEGA too. However, [GS] weren't too shabby either; they brought two lances with an interesting Drop Deck and bloodied the Dav's noses with some nifty focused fire and tactics of their own. For Euro based LIAO, definitely give the [GS] guys a look.

We have run afoul of the ACES running their particular brand of drop deck a few times, at best we're about 50/50 defending against it. We're working on some ideas to help up that percentage.

[Gonta]

Russian mercs "Librarians" begin to play for Liao. I told them info about coordination and cheasefire, so i hope they will push Davions hardly.

[BlakeAteIt]

Cool!

[John Wolf]

Could use some additional droppers on Relevow. PL couldn't stop attacks on their world so shifted to attack ours.

[Bear Tech]

Anyone awake wanna hop onto Beid. It's getting ghosted right now.

[Bad Russian villian Cherkasov]

Currently sitting in lobby on Beid. Our players are at work now, we have only few online. Our planet needs defenders.
