If you don't know how to river jump, look at Dionysus ready to do it in the North of Radar!

That is not very informative. Not everyone has vision there and not everyone is on Fantasia. Its easier to post a picture of it:

See? Now everyone can learn from it. Not only those with vision on Fantasia.

HaHa, Look out Carnage, I am going to jump into your core and take over your cities just like Condihino.  Oh wait, already been done.  Guess I will pass up on that. 

"I guess moving part way onto a river tile to jump is bad, but moving part way onto a river tile to pass a blocker is just good strategy."

Duh!

ok.  river jump is complete.  Did someone get screenshots?  For posterity?

I jumped back into our area, not into Zeon teritory.  Zeon snuck around a blocker that I guess did not fully block the river.

Yeah it's funny they bring it up when the jump was to go back INTO Carnage area, not into Zeon/PKS/Carnage. (it's a bit disputed atm =P )

Trying to tell me KD's with huge areas don't set up common jumps in their own lands to save ticks to the other side? This really is no different.

@ Lord Eleutherios

Nahh i m ok with riverjumping. Its possible ..its part of the game and i would use it too. But since Zeon doctrine dictates not to use riverjumping i wont do it. If  ya got riverjumped into the core u have done something wrong ( ignored the scouts ( except for the halfers .. thats a nuisance) or build a city too close a river). These things should never happen and if yes ... well then .. the next time the kingdom should pay more attention to it.

just my 2 cents ...

Oh and with your blocker .. move away the armies defending it and we will raze it so that you can build a new one  ... i promise :-D

river jump !!! everyone lets riverjump ;P

LGC and Carnage realy lick river jumping. And also Phi.

If we are gonna have a list LEGACY WILL BE TOP OF IT!!

I don't think anybody in Legacy ever denied we riverjumped, unlike 'some' kingdoms I could mention.

Letting BoW out to attack us while locking you ALLIES out, thus preventing retaliation...you vould see where that forced our hands after a few days.

Alternative would have been to simply raze your blocker, would PHI have prefered that?

BoW didnt riverjump in the same sense of the terms, never to get troops across the river, as a last resort, we would drop walls and set them up as armories, or a scout drop point, never to shift troops into an area, different, yet the same. Not saying its not bad, so lets not get too flamey everyone. I say we just solve this and set up a ferry system.....

what's the fuss with riverjumping?  i have tried mountain jumping and nobody gives a damn about it

It is possible Bruto. Please take Great Wall Jumping 101 with Professor Drakos. He'll be more than happy to teach you that ineffective tactic.

Otherwise, I love Riverjumping threads. :-D

Die Hitman, die!

River jumping..

Is for pussies who need exploits to win.

Sad your always the loser Kland :(

And fizban, great wall jumping isnt ineffective, can actually work quite well. Taken more than my fair share of cities by dropping a great wall armory in someones core.

What's riverjumping and how do you do it?

Thanks.......though I don't understand why all of this commotion? I mean armies crossed rivers and stuff like that so why would it be different here.

Its hard to defend whole rivers instead of a few points (Though its not that hard). Your not supposed to be able to do it, but Zeta acknowledged the bug and allowed the use for it. Some Kingdoms see it as a tactic and see nothing wrong in using it (Carnage for example) Some see it as bug and are of the opinion such things shouldn't be used. The commotion is due that difference

Some just whine that others use it while they do exactly the same (No need to name names here)

Lord Hermes, Please take the propaganda elsewhere. We're immune to Goebbels-speak. Red Hand did not break any Naps. What happened was a classic case of two kd's with a Nap ending up on opposing sides of a much bigger war involving many others. We'd also napped Jester as well as Falcons, remember? So when we started receiving messages blaming us for all and sundry, the Nap with Falcons was already broken in spirit...and not by us. What followed was the usual legal business of serving notice, etc.

I find Red Hand to be a very honorable kd, and am proud to have been invited into it for the rest of this era.

Keep to the terms? To which kingdom? As was stated there was a NAP in place with two kingdoms..... so, what we keep to the NAP that benefits Carnage the most? Think not. The decision was made as a kingdom, some opposed the act, some for it, in the end, a decision was made. We are sorry that we did not ask permission from our obvious parents of Carnage. I apologize, please, ground me for a week, take away my allowance, do what ya need to, oh, yeah, go ahead, do the 'tactical' riverjumping, its ok, ive seen worse in the game.

Just do not dare to call us dishonourable when YOUR kingdom had to resort to a childish, pathetic, and oh but sorry, still 'legal' move (keep telling yourself that so you can sleep).

As you stated, Zeta admits its a bug, well when I signed up, I remember clicking a little box stating that if i found a BUG i would REPORT IT and NOT ABUSE IT...... oh, so wait, just because its a bug thats not fixed, you still abuse it, alright go ahead and do so, as i stated before Mr. Honorable......
