Aphilas Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) 31 minutes ago, ajffighter86 said: As has been stated in other threads, the only purpose of the Swedish-America coordination efforts was to get conquest marks flowing for the USA again by flipping Wilmington. However the Swedes and the Americans had no idea the developers would completely change the system the very next day or we would never have bothered to work together on that. When a pirate fleet showed up outside Little River to interfere with the hostility-raising, it only made sense that USA and the Swedish clan members who offered to help with the effort should work together to sink your fleet so the plan could be completed. We have ships and buildings to liberate at Ays, nothing more. Once that is over you have your war with Sweden, the USA has no alliance with them and will not interfere. However this latest development between Sweden and Denmark might make it very interesting and I would say that pirates have a better chance than ever to reclaim some of those lost regions.. Over-expansion will ruin any nation regardless of how large they are. Perhaps if pirates had been in the Bahamas instead of poking their noses into business far north at Little River, the Swedes would have had a much harder time even raising hostility around Morgan's Bluff and Nassau to begin with, but it is hard to defend something when you are on the other side of the map.. Simply put, pirates have noticed swedish movements before Little River and we knew they are coming for our shallows. Once we saw Swedes raising hostility for US we knew we'll be facing 2 fronts (not counting MT side, since it's been decided over a week ago to abandon deep ports arount MT). Hence we decided to intervene in the north to delay Swedish progression as much as possible, which was a mistake - we estimated Swedish preparation poorly and did not expect 50+ swedes with shallow ships are already ready since we mostly saw 4th rates and up while spotting very few movements of shallow ships at that point. Generally speaking, swedes prepared and played very well on tactical level. And no, even if some of you claim it was coinsidences, I'm not buying it. Timings of events were to damn good to be accidental. Division of Swe forces was also close to perfect - just enough that combined with US forces could defeat Rubli/Podw/std and just enough at morgans that with Rubli/podw/std busy up north remaining pirates could not bring serious resistance. Well played. But you gained a long term enemy. Edited July 19, 2017 by Aphilas 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abram Svensson Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) I have the feeling a little bit, that we are getting blamed for playing the game. Like Havelock said, dont take it to personell. We are still all players who like to play this game. I hope in the end all sides can say with a smile on their face: "Damn, that was interesting!" So all i would like to say now is: Have Fun! Because thats why we play this! Edited July 19, 2017 by Abram Svensson 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bart Smith Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Indeed less stupid politics more fun guys!

Guest Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) As has already been stated by many others - let's have some PvP.. I'm too lazy to sail to Belize, clubbing "seals" (that apparently all start at rearadmiral) near KPR is getting dull and the pirates needs a breather after SORRY disbanded and LV (thankfully) found some other game to ruin. So I welcome this! Swedish meatballs are right around the corner, too long have I traded with all the capitals in the carribean without fear of losing my cargo, too long have I crafted ships with supplies, which deliveries I could always depend on, too long have I grown fat and lazy on the bloody weak brits, the dull dutch, the perfidious pyrates and the feeble french! Now I'll eat my swede and have their meatballs too! Â EDIT: Gl to everyone involved btw, this is by far the most exiting development on the server for a long time and I'll look forward to the struggle!

Ole Pinelle Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Huh, a game about naval warfare suddenly turns out to be something about naval warfare. Who would have thought. BTW: Who is this Hornblower guy writing all day about the bad Swedes? Smells like a bad personal experience along the line long forgotten or is it LV`s forum Alt?

Guest Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) 5 hours ago, Intrepido said: I just dont like this kind of aggressive attitude of Sweden. Find quite weak the argument of "just testing the game". We've always been going to different places and fighting various wars, other nations just preferred it when we did so while still being small, and would've preferred it even more if we sat in our little corner and did nothing. Doing nothing, or fighting an endless war over the same ports over and over, is awfully boring. "Just testing the game" ? What? Would you prefer it if we did what others have done already? Conquest marks introduced - fake opposition in PBs abused to maximize conquest mark gain. Conquest marks changed - most PBs ended up being arranged non-attacks, and then people mostly sat on their ports doing nothing. Would you have preferred it if the next part of that story was "Victory marks introduced - largest nations take turns flipping ports weekly, everyone else screwed over, RvR dead"? No wonder why development keeps going in a loop when the first thing we need to look for is how players will mess up or circumvent the system as soon as it's implemented.
