  1. Don't be so sure, i would have said the same thing about danish ships if i hadn't seen the poll. Personally i'll be voting for either Dutch or Swedish ships in the next ship selection, since i believe all nations need to have ships from their own nation available.
  2. So after a months turmoil VIE has seen alot of changes happen to our clan. We had disagreements on how to proceed, which eventually led to a change in leadership with some members deciding to try their fortunes in new places. However VIE is still going strong and with our new focus and determination, we hope to continue being one of the top clans in the Danish-Norwegian faction. Our new focus means we'll be slightly more casual than we've been in the past. So although PVP is still one of our focuses, we now hope to continue in a way that won't require our members to spend their playing time simply holding areas, but instead we plan on actively looking for fun PVP situations or try and create them ourselves. We are as always looking for new members to help us establish the Danish-Norwegian empire as the major force in the caribbean as demanded by God and our King.
  3. VIE is looking for able sailors and brave captains to defend our waters and expand into new territories, in order to claim our god given rights as a major naval power. Should you be interested in signing up, please visit our website http://navalvie.freeforums.org/public-announcements-f9.html Or feel free to contact our recruitment Officers ingame. Daniboy3000 Bartas11 Teamspeak is required since we work hard to keep everything organized in both Port Battles and major engagements.
  4. I've always considered Denmark to be a greater power, so i thank you for confirming this.
  5. Dude, he mentions the exact same thing in the same post.
  6. Yes, i believe his plan was to shove it onto AGermanGuy's chest, or maybe into a nicely carved wooden box so AGG could take it home with him You've clearly never been awarded a medal for bravery, please do pay attention.
  7. From where i'm sitting, it's all a matter of strategy. We've been fighting on 2 fronts for a long time which means we've gotten used to it. We have several clans communicating in order to make sure we have the right amount of people defending each side. We have almost everyone on TS in order to keep it organized, we spend 2-3 hours every night in order to make sure we hold on to our territory, even though attacks only come 1-3 times a week which means we're bored out of our minds most of the time. Is it fun? Rarely. Is it necessary? Damn right it is. And that's not all, we spend several hours a day just figuring out where the attacks will come from, and then hoping we got our intel right when the defence timers start, and even then we have to accept we might not survive a full and well organized attack from either the Brits or the Swedish/French alliance. In our nation we deal with countless of people who don't speak the same languages, but we make it work because we have to. Now neither Sweden or the French have had to deal with being forced on the defensive, and keeping all your forces split up in order to defend both ends of your territory, so last night when we took the risk of leaving our entire western side undefended and combined that with the amazing support of the Dutch, you had to experience an entirely new situation, and lost because you weren't ready for it. This isn't a "Broken Mechanic" but us finding a way to break through your defenses, and you not having an answer to it. There's several ways that you could have avoided this. You could have made deals with the Brits/Spanish just like we have to with the Pirates. You could have organized defenses where the entire french force weren't focused on 1 end. You could have limited your expansion into dutch territory if you weren't ready to defend your back towards Sweden. The Swedes could have accepted our peace treaty if they didn't think you could stand against us. There's several ways where both Sweden and France could have done SOMETHING, but you didn't think you had to after being on the offensive for so long. Now you're in a new situation where you have to work to keep what you have, and hope to reclaim your lost territory. Don't despair, it's very possible to survive against greater forces, or even make deals with other factions to make sure you remain the greater force. But please try and accept this new situation instead of complaining about damn near everything. You lost, it happens, now get together and do whatever it takes to get it back. We suffered through boredom, not being able to communicate, overwhelming forces and etc, just while we were waiting for the moment where we could strike back, which we did in a way none of us had ever expected. Please don't try and diminish what we've done in order to make this possible, but instead try and find your own way to accomplish what we did.
  8. Well i can give you the facts, but the entire situation made about as much sense as an Ikea manual. Basically they decided to attack Macao which is our port the furthest away from their territory, and then attack with a few Belle Poules, renomees, cerberus and i think even a Niagara. 9 people in total. Tonight it happened again, but this time i think they brought as many as 14 people. If their plan is to keep us guessing, it's working. If they keep this up, maybe in 2 weeks they'll make it past Haiti.
  9. I don't see any mention of the 9 man frigate attack on Macao here? Some sort of explanation about that would be very interesting.
  10. Does anyone know if it's a maximum of 3 of these ships that'll be added? The race between Christian VII and Admiraal de Ruyter is so close, it'd be a shame not to add both.
  11. Gentlemen please. If you look below the picture you'll see the words "Inspired by...". Haven't Hollywood taught you anything ?
