This fortress war was the first one I've ever been to. I wish I would have went around killing more people, but other than that It was awesome. And what makes it even more awesome is that now we know that those retard bots cant even defeat us using bugs and exploits. We practically gave them the west gate and all the outer towers and they still couldn't cut it. Way to go bots! Glad all that gold buying and botting 24/7 payed off for you. Now you can go back to afk grinding so you can lose again 2 weeks from now along with all the cape wars in between. L.O.L.

Ill be back for the next big FW. It was a blasty-blast... its shit like that I look forward to in gaming. Great job Avalon & Union <33

Gratz on the FW win Avalon & union. Way to go, kicking the bots in the nads even when they know the glitch and came at "full strength". Excellent work!

Glad you could finally make it Spank. It was definitely a interesting FW this time around. Sitting on top of the wall watching the bots run to the corner and hump their way in was pretty entertaining. Too bad no matter how many of them filtered in, they couldnt accomplish anything worthwhile. They would've had to take down all the towers and then still be able to take out our whole union in the center. Good Luck with that considering the idiocy that was shown at this FW.

Play by play version of how this fortress war happened:

1: bots outside the gates, us on top guarding like always. That lasted a whole 10 seconds until the **** were humping away at the bugs.



2: the bots from the glitch area start pouring in. some members of my guild keep urging us to hold the gates cuz they think its vital to hold. I disagree but i go along with it. As you see, the bots fill in our center and begin spawn camping our noobs, whacking at towers, and being pests.



3: we dump the gates and begin our battle plan. We fall back to the stairs and keep holding south gate. There are 0 glitches that can get you passed the stairs. by holding the stairs instead of gates, our center was cleared of pesky bots and our noobs were enjoying themselves once more.

As for the bots, "OMG WE BROKE A GATE!! VICTORY IS OURS!!! ONWARD TO THE TOWERS!! YEEEEAAHHHHHHH. FACKKKKK AVALON MATHERRRRR". Check out that map! they attacked and destroyed every single tower EXCEPT the 3 ones that matter! Watching them run around hammering the useless towers was a blast. We would egg them on and encourage them. "oh nos its over for us! look at our towers falling one by one!". roflcopter! Considering it took them 1 hour to take down the gate which was undefended most of the time, and another 30 min to take down all the worthless towers, we only fought them hand to hand for about 30 min. most of that time was us at the bottum of the stairs, them on top, and us slaughtering them. The stairs became our "gates".




and here is a funny pic of botter teamwork:


the avalonian reich stood strong in defence of the fatherland

lo..?
u stood there, killed them, reinstated obstacle and ran behind~

You're able to shoot through the baracade just like you're able to shoot down from/up to the fortress walls.

Off Topic, look at my smexy blueness :X I still skeetskeet when I see it. </gloating>

OOOoooo Fly has me targeted. o_O

Too bad my party was split up all over the fortress for the first half. But once we got organised it was great, running around flanking the bots. =]

Fly strictly from a tactical point of view I'm curious, was it ever discussed within Avalon to send one party to go outside the walls while the bots were busy trying to hump their way in and attack them then? I don't know how long it takes to hump their way through, if it was only a few seconds, then I wouldn't see the point, but from watching the vid clips of the bug, it seems like it could take quiet a few attempts to get through and thus they would be sitting ducks.

in some places its 1 or 2 humps. in other places it takes a while. considering there are 4 direct glitch areas and 10 or so other glitch areas, its alot of ground to cover for 3 guilds only.

running along the top of the wall and attacking down was more effective. but even that was not faster then there glitching.

lol @ trapping your own guild mates.

putting the wizards inbetween was the only way for them to hit anyone on the top. u cant nuke from the bottum.

hey im kinda a nub to the whole fw thing but ima guess you need to destroy those 3 towers to att the heart?

Still kinda funny seeing them be trapped in there.

You already know more than those bot guilds did.

the idea of using the stairs as bottlenecks is brilliant, very nicely done.

and putting the wizards in killing range was a good idea, too ... i assume you could still heal/res them from below?

Fly is a brilliant tactician. It was one of the first things I ever found out about him.

Ramon Bush?
no ill pass :p

Yesssssssssssssssssss... Fly should be a president!!!!!

Fly is a brilliant military tactician, I'll give him that much, but he lacks in the political/ally tactics department.

War is only half the battle.

Well calling the botters glitch/exploit may be correct. But be honest to yourself: Why the most of your defenders always stand in the right or left area of a gate? Cause you know they are unable to attack you from the floor. This is glitching too in my opinion, cause you/your mates do it cause you know this "trick"...

Most times Avalon runs and destroys their CPs.

i should not need "tactics" for my allies. A real ally is a friend who has your back at all times and in return you have his back. "tactics" are for enemies.

Not in the world of politics, my friend.

We didnt know we werent dealing with friends and needed politics till it was too late.

Friendly rivalries usually involve political and military struggles, sometimes small scale, other times; large.
