Topic: Is it just me or are we supposed to have more alliance pilots?

[Capt_Bearslayer_XC]

b/c if we are not, what exactly is the use of hosting a slaughter in the making?

Friday night & we have 5 alliance to 13 coalition.

So if you guys don't want to play, tell us so we can save J'inn & DH the trouble.

[Cleaven]

Waaaahhhh, waaaahhhhh.

I had a look at once stage and it was me (just looking) and Vs 3 Feds and a Kzin. Talk about the Coalition being outnumbered,

[Holocat]

all the times i've been on with more than five people puttering on the map it's usually been the red plague, hee hee.

It's pretty fun, once you get past the fact we're getting our asses handed to us.

In war, loss is always bitter.  Then again, this is just a simulation of a war that doesen't exist with weapons of improbable design and dubious manufacture.  Let's try not to take it too seriously and just do what must be done, this being doing the best we can with what we have.

Hasn't been a good red plague in ages anyway.  Kinda neat to see.

[FireSoul]

yep. yep.


But I made a commitment to stick to coalition all the way to the end of the server, sorry.

I dunno, I've always preferred a challenge towards a goal that CAN be accomplished through hard work and skill.

But this is only for those who like spending time playing SFC just to kill time. Kill time with hard work and skill since nubers have clearley set the game.

To me the former is more productive than the latter.   

I still play, still have fun. I have yet to have seen an 'even' D2 game, probably since I haven't played it much. So this is my only gripe about one aspect of the game.

Not a huge enough gripe to cause me to lose joy in it.

I'll be on I need to eat dinner.

You know, I think its also becuase some people just like to play klingon becuase it such an easy race to master as compaired to Feds or Kzin.  

   Or have I just stuck my foot in my mouth?

Well, Firesoul,

Someone better switch or these last servers are gonna be useless.

Cleaven,

I am gonna be polite.

If you actually were out-numbered it was probably b/c the server had just gone back up.

Until about 2130 this evening, it was 4-6 alliance against 12-15 coalition.

Last night, prime time 2100 EST, there was all of TWO alliance pilots on for over an hour. 

So spare me the blue plague routine.

[Strat]

Hey, I think we're actually making them work a little hard for the win!

I was one of the really late nighters on yesterday.  Practically morning at that point.  Only four to five of us at that point, a fed, a mirak and a couple klinks, though it would drop to one at some points.  The feds or kzin might rise to two for a bit or so at times as well.  Not like four people are going to paint the map anything in any reasonable amount of time, hee hee.

That reminds me.  Lizard Hunter, the Hunted Lizard told me to tell you to <BEEP> off.

It's colourful language, hence the colour.

I wouldn't argue against that. I think you guys' performance has been impressive at times.  Additionally, there still a good 7 days left....that's right, we're all of half way through. 

[Reyam]

Well, Is lop sidedness a issue. No so True in some respects. Those who are Loyal to their Race of Choice are always the Winner to me. I have more respect for a Player who is True to Their Race. All those who Vacillate to one Race or the other ,or Has not made a commitment to one side are the other, are those who are weak, with the one exception that one is unable to Play their Race 0of choice due the Server or campaign provided.  I've seen and witnessed those who are not Loyal. It is always an honor to play win or lose to one who is true.  Also I have found some of the posts about battle and Glory  to be enjoyable. Its all the way you want to see it. Although If I had my way, I'd just hunt down the Traitors and the Renegades and Kill them again and again.  

[Hexx]

Hmm fly Fed eh?

Pro's - Get lotsa PvP

Con's - Lose lots at PvP, go on TS to hear DH screaming at me,ships don't turn, ships still don't have any ESG's, never in a zillion years get my hands on a SCS or CVA (well actually that goes for either side), just bought a FDW


Are there actually any decent Fed ships aside from the CLC that have a turn of <shudder> 3 ? (Two would be ncie but I know I'm dreaming)

I could not disagree more.  I believe that those who fly multiple races get a better view of the balances and imbalances within the game.  A pilot who masters one race is to be respected, one who masters more than one is to be honored.  Those who can't get beyond the Coalition/Alliance dogma are missing 1/2 of the fun of the game and taking the risk of condemning themselves to closeminded opinions.  Nothing wrong with having a favored race which you play most often, but never to venture out of it and test the meddle of you fleetmates from the opposite side of a war seems quite limiting to me.  Those who are willing to do it all have my utmost respect.

I agree with ya, Chuut...I always enjoy flying Klingon the best, but it keeps the game fun when you move around a little bit..broaden your horizons, etc.  It's educational, too.
