Mored Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 23. of January Member of the Holy Roman Empire sailing under the Flag of Sweden started assaults on the Deep Water Towns of Philipsburg, Marigot, Fort Baai and Oranjestaedt. Swedens presence in the caribeen by owning only one town needs to expand. For this reason the clan of HRE decided to attack Deep Water Harbors around Gustavia and establish Swedish gouverneurs in this towns. We spend around 850.000 gold for buying the necessary flags and prepared this attack by capturing multiple cerberus from pirates the day before. There where no other defence than the Forts of the Towns, but even them destroyed a few of our Ships. In the 4 Battles we lost around 15 Ships of the Cerberus/Renomee Class but we managed it to capture all 4 Towns and free them to join Sweden. If you want to see us in Action capturing one of the towns have a look at -> 24. of January After the success of expanding the swedish presence we decided yesterday also to capture the next neutral Town to convince them to join the swedish empire. So this weekend we expanded from one town to 6 Towns but sadly our war chest is empty now by replacing ships and paying money to the crown for getting the flag to initiate the assaults. So if you are playing for sweden and are interested in expanding our empire it would be helpfull if you can support us. This can be done in different ways. If you plan to attack a town by yourself we would enjoy to help you. If you are only a trader and only want to have more trade possibilties you can also donate/invest some money. Our goal is sweden becomes a major power in the caribeen, so a lot of Money and also Ships is needed to achive that and every help is welcome. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rason Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 This German Swedish Alliance is proving very effective. Well done everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Terkildsen Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Fortunately, during last week, the navy of Denmark-Norway, aided by a Russian expeditionary force, managed to thwart Swedish advances in Puerto Rico by intercepting their fleet and preventing it from assaulting Guanica, which Denmark-Norway is now offering protection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mored Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Guess what Niels Terkildsen means, the danish forces (around 40 Ships) assaulted our aid convoy, which was on the way to the neutral Town Guanica where they should deliver relief supplies. They attacked our Fleet just before we could deliver our cargo to Guanica. We destroyed most of their Ships with only a few losses but because of the lost time, all the supplies spoiled. Later that day, a Danish plunderer party conquested the weaken Town to enslave everyone there. Even if we wanted to help the poor people, we where just not in range to intercept the danish marauders. They have enslaved more towns in that area and we will monitor any further danish aggressions and intervene if necessary to stop these illegal acquistions.

Daniboy3000 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 But for some reason the Swedish fleet going to Guarnica only consisted of warships with little to no cargo space, in addition to carrying an offensive assault flag. It would have been desastrous trying to supply the people of Guernica with a small amount of goods like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mored Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yeah our escorts sunk a lot of your ships during that battle. If you expected helpless traders sailing in the area of danish marauders, you should think about again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Карл Лейфсен Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Yeah our escorts sunk a lot of your ships during that battle. If you expected helpless traders sailing in the area of danish marauders, you should think about again. That's real true. Swedish escort sunk few danish cutters. Denmark was shocked and made think seriously . Edited January 26, 2016 by Карл Лейфсен 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mored Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) That's real true. Swedish escort sunk both lost danish cutters. Denmark was shoked and made think seriously . And all that Mercurys/Snows/Privateers, sadly i have taken no Screenshot, i should do that in the future. But you are still right, there where also a lot of cutters we destroyed. Its hard to do selective shooting if you are nearly 2 times outnumbered. Mostly VIE and RUS guys lost their bigger ships, you should ask them how many exactly (8-10 mercurys/snows?). But that isnt really what is interesting. You managed it to delay our Flagship that the flag spoiled so you won the battle and reached your goal. Second point is that your aggressive actions against sweden is a declaration of war and we will be prepared for further battles in the futur. PS: Offtopic, maybe you guys should open a new thread with "Danish Forces ganked a swedish fleet last week and lost more ships than they destroyed" because this thread was about sweden conquering 5 towns last weekend Edited January 26, 2016 by Mored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mored Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 I dont fear the dutch guys, but it looks like that you fear what sweden can become, if we hold these Towns. Its funny that you, the mighty Russian Bear (yeah i know you are just sailing for them you are not even a russian yourself) call the dutch for help after they destroyed your outpost that you conquered just before.

Yeah, we're cowering in terror call the dutch for help after they destroyed your outpost that you conquered just before. No one calling anyone for help. You took colonies from the dutch, you shoul deal with them. But if they arrive, we'll certainly help them. And who cares about a crappy outpost?

Niels Terkildsen Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Well, that escalated quickly. ^^ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mored Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 just another "danish" assault not even ingame but in the Forum. I dont know why you guys so aggressive against sweden players, did we stole the bone the russians throw at you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allons! Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Well, that escalated quickly. ^^ And will for sure de-escalate as fast. The last days brought multiple strains for all players and as we all know, an officers and gentlemens quality becomes apparent in such situations. I am sure that Mored, whose recent support for the game and for our nation is highly appreciated, didnt want to offend other nations in or outside the map. Best, Allons! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rason Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 After their series of victories, the Swedish fleet had become emboldened and had begun raiding the trade routes between christenstad and its colonies. If the Danes don't start escorting their traders their supplies will soon dry out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xoosch Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Oh Guys be nice. In the End we haven't really a problem with the Danish, only with the Russian Gankers playing on the Danish Side best known from multiple Tribunal Threads like this http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/8088-danish-second-characters-pulling-pirates-at-mt-port-into-battle-using-pirate-character/.

Yea, regarding that: admin: Posted 03 January 2016 - 09:30 PM Dedo does not have danish characters. He seem to be doing it purely to pull pirates into the battles circumventing capital reinforcement mechanics So, feel free to blame them without any grounds^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
