wtf is with everyone in this kd and speaking in gifs

So the Alba collective eh :D

Last era Abydos allied MAD, Dark Riders allied Knights of Royal Order, why is anything different this era? Half the map is usually allied every era. 

Binh's ghey and over rated.

i think someone would remember him if he was decent

i think really the real question is... who is Wilberforce? =P

I just call him twat

Admittedly, Trogdar aka Lathan had a very awful, nasty, brutish personality. A bona fide Texas redneck! :P

But god damned, you wouldn't want to be his enemy when he is in his element. He is the very epitome of the words brute force. He brings "shock and awe" straight to VU life.

I should know. When I started the game, he and Greg (and maybe Adakis) were the two players I saw crushing armies, cities and kingdoms left, right and center whenever they played. Including Legacy armies :D

Protip 1: The map Shattered Worlds, was created and made by Trogdar :)

Protip 2: Wilberforce > Binh > Trogdar > everyone else! Fact!

Dude got a point, from next era, Collective will not bother with blockers at all, our core will be free for everyone to walk into. So, nothing different than what all other kingdoms are doing. Blockers do not block.

Im happy to take his spanking if you going to dish it out.

"Half the map allied"....really not hard to do with so few Kingdoms.

friendly bottoms dean?

 Fix the blocking bug or bring back great walls

- Go to Zetamania newb =P


Won't help in oop wars with amount of Slaves needed to drop a wall, but seriously. Need to fix this somehow. 

VU maps are buggy as sin......and the game administrator is not earning enough money (actually, now, no money) off the game and thus is too lazy to do anything about it.

What do you expect of a free game after all? I was screaming in the forums and in the admin's ear many ages ago on how all he had to do to make VU a better, more popular, and thus more profitable game was just iron out the little bugs that litter it. Or *shrug* if he has really lost interest, just sell it. There are some of us here who can afford to take a punt on turning this game around. But he ignores me (and us) (and granted, I have not been exactly polite to him, in typical loser fashion) and proceeds on as if everything is hunky-dory and fine.

On the blockers.... many of the blockers placed in this map at this stage of the game still have not grown to full size, so of course they do not block. And for those properly placed and do not block... yes complain, but work together with your teammates and your mages - conduct multiple spell-casting, multiple hits, etc.to stop any incursion. Have an AOTDable army waiting at the blocker. Have a strong mage backing him or her up. There are so many things that can be managed.

Or do what the worst and most useless kingdom in Valhalla has been doing. We have a critical blocker that does not block... and is also not controlled by us anyway :P. So we parked the most powerful AOTD-able army in the game in front of it with three mages as our defensive measure :P There have been a few incursions. Some got 99%ed. One or two got slaughtered.

:)

it makes sense in terms of realism. you wouldnt want to go to battle unless you had overwhelming odds cause a little bit of bad luck can cause you to lose
losing a battle when youre less than 3x their strength isnt that outrageous

...maybe there was some shiznit of a rainy day, or some big malfunction occured in the gates...or some of the attackers got lucky when they were sneaking in and took over the walls and let the whole army in before the larger army was ready for it etc. There are many books about storming castles and defeating enemies with smaller odds. It is what makes legends, heros, and wars all the more victorious to be worth putting into books in the first place.

Albatrash abusing bugs? Nothing new there, TBL.

A bug? Really? Its ok to walk across a forest bypassing an Albatross City that looks like it should block, that is just Alby misplacing a city On the big boy world of Fant.?

You mean you pulled away because the city has GT's and you can't take down a decent amount of GT's? ;)

Either way, bugs like these, river jumping and blockers that block visually but actually don't should be fixed. As long as they're not, they're fair game because you can't expect everyone to abide by the "unwritten rules" of not abusing this. So everyone might aswell use it.
