How long will the AD-DC truce last on Thornblade NA?

LonePirate · March 2015

Neither faction experiences any success unless they work together to form a united front against the far superior EP forces. Will this truce make it 24 hours in the new campaign? Place your bets!

When EP has double pop of either faction, what do you expect?

Edit to add: I dont play under a flag of truce, personally.

"“Dead men are not friends to living men, and give them no gifts.” - J.R.R. Tolkien

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend." - Ancient Proverb, Dates back to 4th Century BC

“Enemies may unite to eliminate a common threat, but never without a wary eye fixed on their ally.” - Richelle E. Goodrich

"There is only one thing worse than fighting with allies, and that is fighting without them.” - Winston S. Churchill

"War can create many bizarre entities, and many bizarre events. But what war succeeds at doing best, is creating the most unlikeliest of allies." - Unknown

I could go on? It's simple really, AD and DC hate EP more than they hate each other, and will ally together until something happens which causes them to hate each other, more than they hate EP.

Were you in the lagwar or Ales tonight? That was epic. They should have the keep collapse on everyones heads.

I bet my old cat with his favourite toy. I can also predict that after EP start capping the scrolls during the off-peak hours those remaining AD/DC will attck EP.

The thread is absolutely hilarious. Is EP the victim now? Wonder if any of EP start playing DC (AD) and make similar QQ threads.

Honestly I welcome the double team, it "could" be fun if it wasn't for the broken lag riddled system we currently have in place. This being stacking entire factions onto flags to flip keeps because the server tech can't handle the combat that was promised to us pre-launch. Hopefully, the changes in 1.6 especially considering the target cap changes.

Send bait to @hammayolettuce. I am particularly low on guts.

This applies to most AD/DC players I think. But when it is time to kick EP in the nuts, both factions gladly hold hands and take turns.

Ah Havoc. Do you guys realize you do this? I'm not going to accuse anyone because I have seen it happen from our side as well and it wasn't like we were trying.

Last night at Ales for example. A lot of EP was on front flag and we were at back, then we traded flags it seemed and people just sat there lagging watching health bars go up and down and up again. AOE heals flying, novas and meteors crashing in, bats! Bats everywhere. Pulsars and oils for a while but think they bugged out. Think it went on for half an hour.

Lol. The only time ep's forces are superior is when they're pop locked capping empty keeps while ad and dc have 1 bar.

If you fully read what I said I never said we didn't. No one "doesn't" do this. Every guild and every faction does. Simply because it is a game design flaw and there's no reason we should have to avoid keep takes to prevent lag. What I merely said was that due to the double team, which I'm fine with btw, EP has been dealing with it double than most other factions encounter it.

Cody · March 2015

I fully expect AD and DC to continue to "double team" EP until EP losses some numbers. whether that means it lasts another week or another year; it will continue until the numbers are more even.

"the enemy of my enemy is my friend" is a very wise proverb to follow in my opinion. It is only smart for two enemies to team up against the more powerful enemy. that is one of the best things about a 3 alliance war in my opinion.

However, know the difference between a "truce" and an "alliance"

there is no "green alliance"(or whatever color yellow and blue makes. lol) it is simply a cease fire of a sort. Once EP is taken down a notch, DC and AD will go back to murdering each other like nothing ever happened.

What truce ? AD attacks us even when we have no scrolls and EP is taking all their home keeps . Truce ... Pff I fart in your general direction Sir .

I never said it was an alliance:D

It is a truce, and it appears to have been broken.

oh, and one thing you must know..

NEVER, fart, on someones balls. It will cause a thermonuclear reaction that will destroy all of tamriel.

@Cody What in the actual f***? As far as truces go, they're almost always specific to certain guilds and what not, not like the entire alliance agrees to it... I for one only have truces with Vortexman, when we see each other it's our goal to shield bash one another to death, or die trying.

Meh, not really a fan of South Park.. or many Comedies for that matter, no humor is as good as my humor.

JDar · March 2015

There's no need to call it a truce, it's just common sense. Us Bananas have no reason to attack Ash, (on Thornblade) and blues should not attack Nikel.

Rylana · March 2015

i still lol @ this "truce" as you will.

Spent most of the night beating the crap outta blues at Ash milegate. No lag. Unlike the other side of the map....

JDar · March 2015

Well after what blue did to TB tonight, PvDooring before maintenance, I do believe it is on like Michelle Kwan

technohic · March 2015

Shots fired?

I have no idea what happened over night, but I do know that before I logged, I saw EP making a push into AD area leaving them with just one emporer keep and they probably would have pushed more for that if it wasn't for DC drawing some off. At the same time; some AD was trying to take keeps deep in DC.

The story of AD. Run from big fights and look to try to sneak something in on DC while they focus on the real threat to the east.

DC ran the map (again) and grabbed all of the scrolls before today's maintenance. AD and EP both managed to reclaim a couple of keeps each before the downtime; but DC will be soaking up free points for several hours today.

PLEASE!!! Now we are gonna hear EP crying cause DC did to them what EP has been doing since launch , AND is the ONLY way they have EVER won a campaign. Suck it up buttercup!
Ya DC took the map. But remember, we took your scrolls and got emp AND pushed you back WHILE you were at high pop. After that we just held it! We didnt lag it, we didnt wait for you to log off. We took it by force. DEAL WITH IT!
Just more proof that EP cant hang when the pop is even. The ONLY time all night that EP's pop was lower than us was AFTER we took everything. Then EP started logging off.

This post is hysterical. EP supposedly can't hang when the pop is even but we owned about two thirds of the map during the height of prime time last night when all three factions were pop locked. I guess it is easy to dismiss facts and reality when they do not match the propaganda you are peddling.
