What a sappy ass way to say good-bye.

Sun, 21 Jan 2007 01:56:25 +0000

But theirs nothing to it, but do it. Or something like that.

Over the past month, I've been dodging full time work and school. I tried my best to be active and discuss matters with Broli, but I have it to give it up him. He did a great job in my inability to stay online. You were deserve this man, you did a great job, seriously. Anyways, I worked my ass off during this whole month trying to pump out whatever I could. I honestly don't know if I'll even be able to make a RP for a while, and even though I'm bummed for losing, I still feel like it was all worth it to see that we actually pulled it through.

We were all dealt with problems, but we saw it through to the end, and I'm proud of everybody. Anyways, congrats and all that jazz. It feels nice to have won, even though I didn't see it QUITE to the end.

*dance*

Team MIA ftw.

I can't believe we won.

Sat, 20 Jan 2007 10:11:04 +0000

Ok, I'm going to try to get on by around noon today to see if anyone has posted. I'm hoping Burter has an update regarding the shot at Paragus by then, but if he doesn't, sucks to be me. I will have to leave for work by about 2:30, and will be getting ready for work around 2, so I won't be on between then and midnight at the earliest. I will do everything I can to follow up after work, if I'm still alive, but I heavily expect some post whoring to occur while we are gone. Its alright though guys, we've busted our asses and I expect a good end to come from it. So either way, I'm happy with our show regardless of whether we actually walk away with the victory or not.

Other thread was getting lengthy, so let's keep the battle info here.

Basically what's going to happen is that we're going to have our catapults in the formation that Reijin described just pounding down on the fortress. Our army will wrap around the catapults on three sides to prevent flanking from the east or west and to prevent any United from just rushing out at the catapults.

We basically chill at the catapults and let them do their business. Once the fortres is so torn apart for us to just run in, we'll begin the charge into the fortress.

The time is now.

Thu, 11 Jan 2007 23:17:57 +0000

Really, I just wanted to make a thread like the one in the United forum.

They're probably making some post about how this is their chance to win it and how they need to step up.

Pfft, please. Someone just tell them to bend over.

It's the Four of Us

Sat, 06 Jan 2007 00:59:43 +0000

Well, after over a month, the four of us have made it this far. We've got United left to deal with, and I think the fact that they're in the final two has inspired some sort of activity in them.

Unfortunately, I know that we're all burnt out. I've asked you guys time and time again to go all out, to give it your best, even if subpar was good enough for the win. I've asked you to take the time to write not one, not two, but sometimes multiple posts. I've asked you to trust me blindly when it's come to making movements, decisions, strategy, and the like.

So here we are, United against Dante. I won't lie. I'm burnt. I'm beat. I really don't have the motivation in me. The fact that I know Raditzu is going to be an issue for us really frustrates me, considering he didn't do anything all game and now he's suddenly jumping to United's defense. I don't feel much better either knowing that United has literally been in only one fight, if you can call it even that since they retreated and it was Outcast attacking them anyway. They've turtled the entire game.

I guess what I'm getting at is this. We deserve this win. We deserve to win Conquest, regardless of who we're taking on. We've done all the work. Who ripped into Syntech territory only days into the game and demolished their entire force? We did. Who took on Outcast, ultimately defeating them regardless of having to sacrifice a significant amount of our own troops and PCs? That's right, we did. What's United done? What have they done to deserve this win? I don't know about you guys, but I don't want people to look back at this event and say, "Man, that whole doing nothing strategy really worked best."

I want people to know that we deserved this win and that we earned it because of all our hard work. I don't want United to be remembered. I want people to think of Dante. I want people to think of Outcast as being the real opponents. I want people to think of United as the force that huddled in its corners like scared rabbits and waited until the end of the game to actually do anything because they lacked the backbone to make any real actions.

I've asked you guys to do so much, I know I have. But I want this win. I want it so badly I can taste it. I want people to know that when we said we were going to win, we meant it. I want people to know that our efforts weren't worthless, that United and their tactics isn't what mattered.

We started out with nine people. Now, it's just the four of us. Alex, Rei, Akane, and me. We're it. There's no one else coming to our aid. For the first time, we'll be facing a superior army. United has turtled the entire game and has gained 2000 troops because of the fall of Outcast and Syntech, so we're facing up to almost 4000 troops. After our allocations, we'll have just over 3000.

We're outnumbered, both in terms of PCs and troops. I want to say that we've done all the hard work, that all that's left is an easy win. But that's not the case. There is no easy win to this. We've done it 100% the entire game, and we're going to have to keep it at 100% for the rest of it. I want to tell you guys that we can slack off with this, but we can't. I know you're tired and burnt out; I am too. But do this for me. Be active when I need you to be, and I will be too. Find the inspiration to get the posts up when the time calls for it. We've earned this win, so let's go out there and take it.

It was really nice RPing with everyone here =)

Since we're all in the same alliance anyhow, I look forward to RPing with every again sometime =)

Wondering.

Mon, 01 Jan 2007 19:02:31 +0000

I'm incredibly unmotivated. I can't even seem to motivate myself to write a RP right now due to the lack of posting right now and the fact that I feel like I've been doing the same thing for a month straight. I really, really, really hope that in two days that a large majority of United goes kaboom for collar explosions. I'd like to see this whole thing ended, ASAP. I just wanted to post this to inform everyone on WHY I haven't RPed that much lately. Also I'm pretty much wondering also if this is the same reason why no one else is posting much.

I realize though why Akane and Reijin haven't RPed due to the staff issues and all. I'm also not trying to come down on anybody you know since I'm obviously to share the blame here. Anyways, post in here, it's getting quiet =O

Strategy for Sanguine - Burter Read

Fri, 29 Dec 2006 06:35:09 +0000

Here's how it's going to work for Sanguine.

We're going to construct 10 towers on wheels, like the ones in Rome: Total War and in Lord of the Rings. These are the towers that you push towards a wall and then climb up the inside to the top, where you hop onto the castle wall. Five of these towers will attack the portion of the wall to the south of the main gate, while the other five will move to the part of the wall north of the main gate.

We're also going to make 5 battering rams. One will go for the main gate while the other four will divide evenly between the top and bottom sections. In other words, two battering rams will attack the wall north of the main gate while the other two attack the wall south of the main gate. They will do this at the same time as the towers are moving.

Meanwhile, we we have several dozen ladders.

The idea is to attack them from so many points on the walls that they won't be able to defend each one equally. Putting more defense in one area will cause another area to leak. The main objective is to merely penetrate the wall, whether by use of a battering ram or tower.

Once the wall has been penetrated, everyone will focus on that area and getting on top of the wall and securing a perimeter, much like we did at Hyperton. Once we're on the wall, we need to get the gate open from the inside, and then we need to begin a push towards the center of the Castle.

Does this make sense to everyone? Once the battle begins, we need every single one of you, Vejita, Reijin, Akane, and Grandpa Gohan to be as active as possible. This fight won't be easy, and it's not going to be kind to our troop count. I expect a large amount of soldier losses, but we really have no choice but to fight them. Be active so that you survive. I need all of you for when we fight United.

Burter, could you read over this and tell me if any part of this plan won't work? Thanks.

Rei and Akane

The two of you have until tomorrow night to clear up the IC development you want to happen while buried under the rubble.

I'm in the process of rebuilding Hyperton back to the fortress it once was. These repairs will be complete tomorrow (Friday) night, so get your stuff done by then.

Let me know if this is not enough time.

I had fun

Wed, 20 Dec 2006 22:27:41 +0000

Damn, and I was about to RP. Hell, I was writing it and I found out the bad news. Well, I guess this is it for now... Dante is definatly going to win this, even if I won't be there to embrace the warmth of the victory, I will be proud.

Good day, and Long Live Dante.

Sorry if I seemed unclear with what was happening in my post or locking you out, but Burter said he was updating later so I thought this might be my only chance to do this before getting home from work late tonight.

I have a feeling that Outcasts, judging by their normal tactics and knowing a few of them from past events, will have someone attempt a suicide explosion in hopes of taking a large amount of our soldiers with them. Pan's done this before in the past, I believe, and I think a few others have. Judging by their complaints regarding this battle in general and the "dishonor" thing, I expect them to resort to that tactic of "if I can't win, noone will" again, not that I blame them.

So in anticipation, I am covering the two of us with Reijin's Ki Barrier move to lessen the chance that we are destroyed if such a blast occurs. I mean, its a huge party, such a thing would devestate by sides involved, there's a large amount of soldiers running around here and the blow could cripple us... 17 apparently ran away from Broli... So why not, know what I mean?

My Last Fight

Wed, 20 Dec 2006 02:07:33 +0000

Well fellas, I've engaged Android 17. I'm going to attempt to hold him off long enough for you guys to finish Super Buu and the rest of the forces in the fortress. To be honest, I'm rusty. I haven't roleplayed anywhere near my maximum potential in months. In short, I don't know if I can beat Android 17, and if I can't, then I'll be dead.

I've put so many hours into every single bit of planning in this game. Putting up buildings, planning offensive strikes, flanking strategies, messages, assassinations, everything I've put hour after hour into making sure that we're the best team out there. I have to say that, regardless of the need to be humble, I think I've done a pretty great job.

With that said, if Android 17 kills me, I don't want Dante to fall apart. I'm not saying that I'm central to our force, but I am the guy doing most of the behind the scenes work. So, I want you guys to know what I think would be the best thing to do if I die.

Reijin needs to be promoted to General. With KV working as much as he is, he could use another helping hand. Everyone needs to respect Reijin and his leadership just as you would listen to my advice. I have full faith that, even if I die, you guys can easily finish off Outcast.

United and Dante have an alliance that will be upheld until the Outcast is finally finished off. When that happens, you need to be quick to catch United off guard. They've turtled this entire game. The weakness to their building strategy is that if you can get them to fight outside of a fortress or on some other location, you can beat them. Try to lure them to a village, a fort, anything weaker than what they're trying to be defensive is.

Flanking and encirclement is the key to any strategy. Try to find ways to trick Garlic's units and get around him. Just when he thinks he has one angle defended, hit him hardest where he's not expecting it.

I have full faith in you guys. I said it from the start that Dante would be the winners of this game, and I still think we will be. I know that you guys can achieve this regardless of if I die or whoever else dies. You guys are the best in this game. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Don't let anyone else make you think that you aren't good enough to take on United, Outcast, whoever.

Roleplay to your best ability. Do it actively. Win this game, with or without me.

You guys are awesome. I've loved roleplaying with each and every one of you, and I wouldn't have changed any of you out for another player. I came into this as the Commander of the best bunch of roleplayers, and if I must, I'm going to go out as the Commander of the best flipping writers at this RPG. You guys got this covered.

Sexy Muffins, is that a Pigeon?!

Wed, 20 Dec 2006 00:40:02 +0000

Yeah, so if I can sex up Burter to let me stay alive...

I'll be roleplaying a lot later tonight/tommorow/next day <3!!!!!!!
