Turbo Discussion / Re: A Challenge, and tryouts

In response to this, someone should make a very offensively minded clan designed to crush Shadow's.
I'll aid anyone willing with knowledge. University is becoming more and more hectic--expected of course. But contact me on Reg and I'll funnel knowledge and strategies into playing offensively, just to see if Shadow's defensive techniques will be of any use. Perhaps a competition is in order: offense versus defense. Pure leader strategies will have an upper hand against defensive leader and indy strats, though I am very much prepared myself to launch into a defensive Stoat strategy.

OOC: I've been busy recently. Classes are picking up. I am now a student of the Honors College as well, so time will be at a premium. Trying to get a job as well. Anyways--I'm a little bit behind on this RPing--but I'll make time later and RP for the current.

his net dropped 200mil without any attacks on him. I could understand net going up because he is gaining taxes, but a drop? odd. Maybe he is getting negative taxes if people are making - per turn?
Or maybe Shael hit the recalculate-NW button. Hes been collecting tax, seemingly without gaining NW from it. The resources still go there but not counted in NW until an admin recalcs it.

wow that looks disgusting. Snare cakes are disgusting :-X

The city bugs are just display glitches. As long as the dynamics work as they should (and they do), I don't think it's too much of a glaring error. 
The dynamics are correct--but the readout issues make it look like Electronic Arts developed and published the code release. :wink:

Too bad bandwidth is checked back so much... they are so against P2P but it also slows down stuff like Windoze update.

OOC: Keep going with your plans and plots. This role-playing brings a new life to Redwall. I will be  disappointed if at any point in the next few weeks, that your plan falls apart. Keep it together--I enjoy it and I know a good number more people enjoy it.

IC: General Bob-sama stands again on the hill that afternoon. He received a messenger from his friend and ally's messenger. General Obliterator had broken through Ereptor's lines and broke the reign of they tyrannical Ereptor. However, he knew that this would not be the end of Ereptor and Ereptor's allies.

Quote from: Gorak on September 09, 2008, 09:04:12 PM
*A large armored rat enters the tent*
"Sir, I bring news from the frontlines in Mossflower!"

"At ease Deathmaster Snikch, now, what of the rebellion?"

"Sir, while you were away, The rebel leader Wolf Snare, and his minion Bob, attacked the fortress of General Volkov and general Holby. General Volkov was caught unprepared and suffered greatly, General Holby lost much lands, but otherwise faired better.
The rebel Bob and his forces also attacked The Emperors fortress, however, the imperial guard has held fast."

"So, trying to where down the Imperial Forces by bringing down the Generals of The High Council, eh? So it has begun."
*mutters under breath - "finally"

"The rebels shall be dealt with. The Imperial Guard will stand fast. Justice will come in due time.
Rally the men. Tell them that I, General Gorak, will personally lead them to battle and fight by their sides!
Death to Cowards!
Dismissed Deathmaster Snikch"

"Death to Cowards indeed sir"

* The large rat salutes, and exits back out the way he came*
OOC: I should be rebel leader Bob-sama and Wolf Snare my general--they're my plans and Wolf Snare agrees with my strategy. Please adjust for the purpose of this roleplay.

IC: The night was cold but bright. The moon shone in the cloudless sky over the counties. A thick fog would be rolling over the river in the morning.

The hill was covered in a thin sheen of dew, and the soft grass was crushed at the feet of ten approaching souls. Four wolves and three wildcats surrounded a messenger and the primary commanders of the rebellion. General Bob-sama and General Wolf Snare were present this evening, and a messenger a few steps behind Bob-sama.

"My good Cody, tonight we will repeat our efforts."

"Agreed, Robert. Tonight will be particularly bloody for the Guard."

"We shall make sure of that."

"Messenger--prepare to go to my encampment. I need a message sent immediately to my own commanders."

The messenger bowed, saying "yes, my lord!"

"Write to my commanders that they are to temporarily transfer to the complete and total control of my opposite here, General Bob-sama. Effective immediately, I want two thirds of my forces to immediately leave for his encampments." Wolf Snare waited several minutes as the teenage fox inscribed his instructions. "Now off to my camp, messenger. Return immediately when this transcript is delivered."

"Immediately, my lord!" With that, the young fox ran off and to Wolf Snare's camp in Southsward.

"Now then, Cody, over the river is of course our benevolent emperor. Tonight we shall pleasure him again with the presences of my messengers."

"Indeed, Bob. I am anxious of the result."

"Guard--send for another messenger. I have orders effective immediately."

The Wildcat guard replies, "yes, sir!" The wildcat then makes his way towards the small encampment behind the prominent hill. Several minutes pass, and a messenger sprints to the side of Bob-sama and Wolf Snare, bowing to each.

"My Master and Lord; you have requested my presence?"

"Yes, I have," Bob-sama responded. "I have orders for my commander."

"Yes, Master." The tall Painted One messenger removes a large sheet of parchment similar to the parchment carried by the prior Fox messenger. "Your orders, my Master?"

"Prepare my legions of leaders. We strike at the Emperor Ereptor in one hour's time."

"Yes, my Master." The Painted One hurriedly scribbles orders to his parchment.

"Begone!" Wolf Snare says, and the Painted One scurries off, making his way quickly to the main camp of Bob-sama's army.



An hour's time passes without event. By the time the hour is up, legions of Bob-sama's leaders are on the ground behind the hill. General Bob-sama turns to inspect his armies, and then instructs a group of his primary commanders on the plans for the following battle. Within another hour, the dawn is on the sky. After a short address, Bob-sama with Wolf Snare beside him sends the leaders into the territory of the Emperor.

The battle raged for several hours. The sun was just over the horizon upon the report of the remaining commanders. They reported and then dissipated back to their huts with the surviving and newly-recruited veterans of this bloody rebellion.

Good luck. I would suggest you heal by raising your shields in Regular and Turbo. Many good players have been taken down because they forget until it's too late.

If they forget something like that, they're not that good.

QuoteMainly statements of how pathetic you seem when you do this, and how it does not seem to benefit you in any way.

It benefits me greatly because of the entertainment I get out of it.  And it's a good thing my self-esteem doesn't depend on what you think of me.

It's actually a common error--too common really. I've seen it at least a half a dozen times during takedowns and disruptions of plans. Ereptor forgot them prior to emping last time. Your own Volkov forgot them following that. I have hit Conor and quite a few others without shields as well in the past few months.

Anyways--I've forgot them too--just not at really critical times. For indies--they should always have shields raised. For leaders, it's not THAT necessary if they don't have NW.
