So PGI are you going to give us IS players something to attack except ourselves? The last few days have been really boring with not being allowed to attack clan worlds.

Nothing stopping you from attacking IS worlds except foolish truces.

Remind me again about all the massive clan on clan action that has occurred in CW so far?

It appears that the attack lanes between clans are cutting off the IS from attacking certain planets. I'm not sure if it is random which faction gets to pick first or if it goes in a particular order every time.

Nothing stopping the clans either except extremely low population I suppose.

Well why would we attack eachother when we have a common foe.

Well if you don't have attack lanes to the clans, a match against the IS is far better than no match.

And matches against any opponents are far more rewarding than ghost dropping.

CW has been boring since tukiyyad, hardly any players on, atleast not the levels like pre tuk. no one playin for clans making them look weak so PGI has a reason to nurf IS.
There are too many attack vectors atm, should limit it to 3 lanes IS v CLAN, IS V IS, and CLAN v CLAN. Who really gives a **** about the map when its decided on one battle at the end anyway.

When I read your topic title and your OP, I thought that you are planning to attack Strana Mechty and Clan Homeworlds. :D

That would be interesting ...

if you want fights , attack another IS faction. Clan players don't play anymore. So attacking clans will mostly get you ghost drops. that's probably why PGI isn't allowing you to attack. Personally I mostly do public matches now, dusting off my old IS mechs and taking them for a ride

The clans barely got the population to handle Steiner at the moment, yet you wish to throw in FRR and the DC in the mix once again as well? Please no, just attack each other if you want some CW. Far too few Clans playing CW atm to handle 3 IS houses, especially with Mercstar being in Steiner currently.

IS vs IS is no Option due to that they have to face Huggin and other Monster due to that case..no no. Clanmechs are much easier to handel as enemy..... :ph34r:

This. You get nothing for owning a planet and then they reset it. Not going to waste my time fighting for something that means nothing and then lose it anyway.

I don't see why the IS can't attack the clan homeworlds whenever they feel like it.

PGI has already rewritten the history to the point where it doesn't make sense anyway.

The Federated Commonwealth never happened, Hanse Davion never married Melissa Steiner...and hence, Victor and Melissa Steiner-Davion never existed.

Instead of Comstar offering to fight a proxy battle for Terra on Tukayyid, the IS houses are doing it.....

None of it makes sense anyway, I say let them take Strana Mechty, too.

lol lore means **** right now, lets get some decent battles consistently going, then tie in the lore.

Really we should be able to log on and have a CW battle anytime of the day.

Why Play CW?
1. It is fun.
2. You make a lot of C Bills.
3. You get Mechbays and other stuff. (MCs, Cockpit item, GXP, titels...)
4. It is more tactical than the public games on those small maps.

You may do that right now at any moment. Oh wait...

Well, random matches for all of us then. Not that it dis-COURAGE-d me or any of us Clan players during Tukayyid though. But tell you what, we have yet to see the quirk list for Tuesday patch, and there is Wave 3 coming in a month. And then...

Let's see...

- Clans aren't attacking Clans because that would be what...like 1 world? Pointless.
- Clans gave up attacking Inner Sphere because every Inner Sphere faction comes to the defense and can outnumber the Clan attackers EVERY TIME.

So Clanners are pretty much stuck with attempting to fight each other over 1 world, or pointlessly wasting time attacking the IS all day to still not win a planet. What's the point?

Did you really just QQ about the Huginn in CW? Seriously?

fail +10


Matches take too long to find in CW, Defense ghost drops are such crap they make me rage-quit when I get them. And regardless of what PGI says, it feels like cheating is more common in CW than they admit.
