Just ran into an unknown Davion unit called -JD-. Attacked Steiner space with 12 tdr 9s. I can only assume that it is a Clan unit with alternate accounts. As long as this is possible, I will not put another dime in this game. I do not understand what people are thinking when they come up stuff like that, but obviously they do not care about the longevity of this game.

So how do you stop alternate accounts in an F2P game?

Here is another bunch of ass!@##$.
Kurita NS. Same thing, 12 zergs and then 12 tdr-9s.

To ban an account? very simple. Block the IP.

Do you know how easy it is to change IP? I'm going to go with no.

PGI gave us the corridor there. We are allowed to attack there. Good fights!

Gute Kampf!

You are making a lot of assumptions, cease fire is over, you can attack whom ever you want, so what is the problem, people are not playing the way you want them too?

Maybe you learn better strategy for dealing with mech with specific weakness? We face drop of all snipers tonight and win game easy.

It is called meta- tactics (such as a light rush) and Mechs (such as the 9s) that are effective and work well. Every game ever has a meta, you either play with it or learn to play against it. Whining about those who conform to the meta is useless.

BTW- NS aren't alt accounts, played with them many times. They are just very good at light rushes. We haven't been hitting Steiner lately but you can ask Davion groups about HK tactics.

[The Droid]

NS is one of the longest lasting/prominent Draconis Combine units.

[Deckard Caine Sender]

1) Name and shame... look it up.
2) Is an Inner Sphere player suggesting that the TDR-9S might be unpleasant to face en mass?
3) Draconis Combine with NS tags sounds like Nights Scorn (or something similar)... competent group that has dropped against the clans.

[Karl Marlow]

Ok I'm trying to understand the OP.

Someone attacked someone else utilizing mechs. Thus CW is doomed?

[EXO-Scorpion]

Cry about CW matches?
Are you Sick of the CW matches?

It's SIMPLE!

Be like me and just dont BOTHER playing in CW.
Until CW has anything worthy and Fun for me to enjoy... I will just sit out and let everyone else Beat on a Dead horse! lol

[ZenFool]

No, he believes the unit causing mischief is actually a different unit ignoring the steiner/Davion ceasefire. I don't know if they are alts or not, I just know its pretty lame to ghost drop a planet just to get your tags on it. There are many other threads about this topic, no need to post another one.

[SplinterdBrain]

I've actually dropped with a few units that are taking Steiner planets, they just don't honor the ceasefire, it is their prerogative, and they are not just ghost dropping, maybe a couple, but they are stomping through the groups that they are facing.

Not sure who they are but they seem to be pretty cool. Next time you see an attack join in with them and play some rounds, not sure why every one is so mad, this is a game for fun, does not seem like you are having fun, maybe take a break, until beta is over? BTW, I'm for hire to the highest bidder, maybe I'll join Steiner next, or Kurita for a contract or two. FRR was pretty fun, very good units there, like Davion the best so far! Peace out!

Why is JD a "clan" unit? If they had 12 TDR-9's I doubt those accounts are fresh. This is a silly thread.

[Aresye]

Well, you can't exactly play 2 games at once, so anytime this unit is "playing IS" that means less players for their Clan.

Besides, why would they create alt accounts when there's a thing called, "contracts," that would allow them to jump normally?

I agree with Ax. Tis a silly thread.

[SuomiWarder]

The CW set up punishes "standard" thinking of Battletech tactics and rewards all or nothing, take advantage of rules meta thinking if you want to win.

I call it less a matter of "evil" units and more a matter of poor game design. They are trying to change things with the new skirmish counter attack - but that mobile defense base thing that can be destroyed for a win might still lead to light zergs. Will have to see implementation.

[Richter Kerensky]

What strange about 12 TDR-9Ss in an assault wave by organized IS unit. NS is long standing honorable House Kurita unit, they are not clanner scum. Maybe you should get better at game instead of complain that someone win by do a thing you dont expect.
