Guys, please. This is not a best ship thread, this is an RPG. If you want to talk about #3 or its rules, go to the thread I made specifiaclly for that. This is for continuing the game only.

Post Fri Dec 10, 2004 9:33 pm

sorry, just passing time. So what about the strategy thing? less work all around for everyone, especially you. Plus its more fun--strategy on strategy as opposed to mere force on force.

Post Fri Dec 10, 2004 10:40 pm

Well it's my system i'll judge

Post Sat Dec 11, 2004 7:01 am

retiring from the cyof rpgs, cause it was fun at first, now it's just tedious.

All assets transferred to hispania, they'll have to find out later where my systems came out at.

Post Sat Dec 11, 2004 7:18 am

It's only tedious, rich, because you were wiped out and became a completely irrelevant faction

Thanks Omega Chief . You can't judge the battles, tho, until jacob gives the results of my reasearch from 2 TURNS (LF FAx4, LF FDx3)

Movements for today:
Pending victory in all systems, all forces minus a small percentage of Light Fighter wings to proceed to Bering and attack non-stop all Liberty troops with complete offensive tactics. Pilots are also warned to be on the look out for enemy traps, and forces of LF wings will be flying along the bottom of the fleet checking for any approaching Liberty ships from underneath. 5 LF wings to be on the lookout for torpedoes and mines, and to shoot them down as such. In order to irk the Liberty pilots, all ships will be flying upside-down.

HAHAHAHAHA Liberty suffer my wrath. First Bering, then the whole of your systems...

Rhineland turn 36

1. Odin shipyard in Dresden and Thor shipyard in Stuttgart are complete.

2. I build 25 LFs, and terraform Planet Aalen in Hamburg.

Ummm... Wilde?
I thought you had maxed out on your LF FA and FD. I had locked it, remember?

Post Sat Dec 11, 2004 7:46 pm

I am against the bringing back of the strategy idea.
Sounds like another Omega Chief/Wilde half-baked idea.

In all seriousness, the system has no order to it. You guys have never tried to judge a battle when you are looking at two strategies and two ship lists, and trying to figure out who will win and by how much. It is very difficult. The reason I invented the new battle system was to make a standardized way to do battles that was objective rather than subjective. Since I am the only one who has the experience of judging battles using both systems, I have to say that the new way is better. The older system is very archaic, because it was put together as a quick solution in #1 because people were acting like they were going to attack each other and there was no way to do battles.

Post Sat Dec 11, 2004 8:06 pm

I'm all right with that--I just wanted to give you a break from doing battles, especially with exams coming up for everyone around here.

I maxed out the capital attack and defence ratings, not FA or FD. I haven't maxed those out yet. A maxed-out LF would look like this:
FA 7, CA 8, FD 6, CD 7. So far I still have 2 points to go for FA and 1 point for FD.

To Wilde: Since there don't seem to be any other active powers to interfere anymore lets finish that little war of ours.

Turn whatever this is: My entire fleet attacks Rheinland in Sigma 13

Post Mon Dec 13, 2004 6:10 pm

Sure fine, there's nothing else to do until CYOF 3 starts. I'm going to assume I won those battles (dammit jacob get the results up ) If you hadn't noticed tho I'm in the middle of a war with Liberty...dammit. I'm going to have to quit that...

All forces following the defeat of the Liberty blockades to proceed to Frankfurt and New Berlin and prepare as soon as the force in Sigma 13 is defeated to move directly into Sigma 13 and battle the Kusari force.

Post Tue Dec 14, 2004 2:41 pm

It appears that were going with the assumption Liberty and Bretonia had been routed. You two fight it out, I'm going to kill Bretonia off.

Hispania is staying neutral between Rheinland and Kusari, if either attempt to claim the Sigmas in my absence though, I'll bring back my expeditionary forces from Liberty and Bretonia and blow the crap out of you guys.

I'm building

120 C. VHF Wings
4 B. Battleships

Remaining Credits: 40

The battlegroup in Omicron Gamma is reinforced by the 120 VHF Wings and 4 Battleships and push through the Omega Systems liberating them from the stagnating Bretonian forces and makes a final push into Bretonia. The Grand Hispanian Fleet (since its allied with both Rheinland and Kusari) moves out of Sigma 13 and splits in two one going through the Rhienland border worlds and one going through the Kusari Border Worlds for a push on New New York. The Magellan VHF Wings move in on the flanks of both Liberty and Bretonia to take the systems. The Tactical Squadrons used to retake Sigma 19 and Omicro Theta push up through Omicron Beta and into Omicron Alpha rendevousing with the rebel fleets in Tau forcing the Bretonians to flee.

In Hispanian News:

President Triyun Kun is expected to address the Hispanian people over the Victory's against Liberty and Bretonias broken governments. It seems there rulers have fled in panic. The President is now meeting with the Blood Dragon and Zoner allies on the newly retaken Planet Crete. They are expected to be given systems of there own.

Post Tue Dec 14, 2004 3:25 pm

Seeing as the Liberty government has fallen apart, I will help Triyun gain control of Liberty--as long as I get Bering, Texas, Colorado, and New York (seeing as you're going to get all of Bretonia, it's only fair ) Their blockades decimated, I push 450 LFs into Bering. The 135 LF wings in Omicron Alpha to attack the Bretonian force there (25 LFs).

JACOB GET MY RESEARCH RESULTS UP!!!! sorry but it's been about 5 days.
