What I love is the Kurita approach of asking everyone to leave them alone while they attack whatever border is weakest. "The Clans are not a big deal. Davion is almost all pugs right now. We're going to ignore the Clans and attack Davion.". " Davion is fill of mercs now. The Clans are a threat to everyone! We must fight them! Didn't you all say we need to fight the clans? Cgb is dogfood without ms/CI there, we're farming them now. Leave us alone, or we will ensure the fall of Terra. At least until the Clans are hard again, then we attack whatever is border is most vulnerable."

It's not just that you run from the hardest fight facing you, it's the you indignantly wan everyone else to leave you alone while to do it.

just a heads up, we were fighting both davion and the clans before MS showed up. it was maybe one or two 12 mans on davion front and the rest on clans shifting depending on the situation at hand

but blah blah kurita is baby liar man *vomits up garbage*

I love the way you make up stories to fit your narrative. Is still a useless faction and will always be weak. MS and CI represent a very large force, it is incredibly stupid with the current CW mechanics to fight them both head on. Hold territory matches don't give you points.

What happened to your "100+ faction loyalists" per night?

musashi didn't have much to say about ghost drops


An oversight on my part, apologies.

As far as I'm concerned, ghost drops suck.

Thanks.

Weird ... never would have dreamed this thread would still be around I guess some -MS- posters haven't shown up yet to get it locked and um altered.

If you want to actually beat those units, running is exactly how you do it. Big forces like that seem to stick together. Picking the same faction to work for when it comes time to pick a new employer. If everyone would stop dropping on planets they are playing on, then they would get nothing but ghost drops. It would not take long for them to either take opposing employers so they would have opposition, or for their groups to fracture when they can't get games because of their unit tags. Either way helps level the playing field for smaller forces, and it's not like you're going to lose any more planets than you would have if you fought.

It ties into our logo history. The first logo for the company was a cow skull sitting on the ocean floor with a pair of eyes peeking out from one of the eye sockets.

At some point we changed it to just the cow skull.

It's going to be going for a fair bit longer now that we have an attack lane.... (at least from my perspective. If FWLM leadership gives orders not to start banging on Kurita like a shutter in a hurricane, I will have to begrudgingly abide.)

I always thought it was from the story of piranhas picking a cow clean within several minutes?

I think that what it was. I seem to remember seeing an older logo that was a cow skull in a pool of water with a piranha.
