AoW Guild Wars - My words can't do it justice.

So I'm not going to try to be fancy, the scope of the event is wider than my field of view. Think kingdom, now think kingdom divided. South West, South River, Central, North West, Northern.
Within those regions are towns, and schools
and most of all land.
Land with open world keeps. Keeps larger than Iron Forge, or Stormwind. Keeps for your guild to put their name on and build on, if you can take it, and defend it. There are only 30 or so of these keeps. There are hundreds of guilds. Guilds with hundreds of people. On top of that one guild can hold more than one keep.
This is what is being fought for. This is why alliances are formed, this is why money can't even break these ties. This is why murdering and camping a newb might cost your guild something they will never get back.
Goon Tang and allies went to war tonight with Magnum Opus and Allies. Magnum Opus took a beating, but held their land.

For those who don't the lower level of these keeps are so big you need mounts to get around.
Man, I totally missed this fight, when was it?
Stupid AUS time zones.
About 10 pst. Not to long after the War. It was as wild as I've seen Chengdu.
Two things, first, we were the ones that camped shinobis and goontangs in chengdu with killing order for 1hour and 30 minutes, till they broguth every single one of them and it got kinda even. Second for the last two wars we have completely abandoned the upper levels. Theres no use defneding them because they dont really delevel if they get burnt and with their superior numbers it makes hard keeping the buildings that connect to the underground alive. Therefore we go straight to the throne room and spam spin to wins and pulls and turtle like mad because the space is so narrow their numbers mean nothing. They die like flys there.
We keep winning because goons have no strategy, we keep three 6 man arrays up at all times and 3 music players. On the other hand goons try to zerg rush us without stop. To be honest last one was kinda pathetic. I always stay near the throne to kill any stray goons that happen to get in. Last time i got 16 kills, now i got 1. Thats how bad they were this time.
@ Above
Ganked 2 demiz for 2 books tonight. I got ganked too, atleast they didnt get it
Goons usually do... They are known as canon fodder... ^^ Or is that little bees?... ^^
The wars are fun, but mechanically terribly broken. I'm fairly certain what we consider to be "guild wars" now, will be vastly different come release.
The specifics I'm not sure about, but I was under the impression the current Chinese version works in a very different way from ours.
I know AresPL understands most of the CN version, perhaps he would be so kind as to clarify?
They're a few EVE guilds here. They're streaming videos, passing out keys and recruiting other EVE players.
Thats been my observation as well. One tends to find Goonies in the oddest of places. I've no doubt some are in Hello Kitty online adventure, if they have a chance to ruin someones play experience... ^^
No the plot and structures are there. So no physical building. Your guild can activate/build those structures up so they can use them though. This is the one place I can give an edge to Archeage(from what I hear). It would be nice to construct from the ground up. They lose me with the questing for levels stuff though.
On the 10th, the tax system will be in play. Own two keeps in one area, your guild can then tax that areas sales.
It's free. It would be a good idea to learn a little before launch. There will be no wipes. You could end up falling in love with your dry run toon though and keep going. I think there will be a new sever at launch though.
Guild wars are actually a massive joke - they are probably the single worst thing about the game...
But heck, if it gets more people in the game - fantastic. Just do a couple dozen, you'll see what I mean.
The guild war play could be better. Just like school war. What goes into them though, the polotics are amazing.
While I enjoy reading your posts and agree with them often I find you enjoy re writing history.
1) magnum opus is a larger unskilled guild. You have never beat our defence . Your alliance lost so many times many of you turned to pve. I submit your alliance is the unskilled guild. With that said you have many good pvpers. Your gm is infamous for only fighting with a obvious numbers advantage.
2) shinobi / goons have many members that seem to enjoy exploiting bugs and weakness of the game engine.
3) Your alliance uses cheap tactics such as attempting to block other guilds from participating in guild wars (failed btw)
4) congrats on beating dead or nearly dead guilds in guild wars.
now on the other hand your alliance has many good points. Grithok is a good organizer and comes up with good tactics attacking so many of our allies in 1 day was smart. (note took nice advantage of Your alliance size)
but please try not to re write history it's beneath you and your obviously good writing skill.
What are you talking about?
Oh, is it a MO/TDH/DGZ player? If so, move along folks - nothing to see here. :P
I mean they were so last month. I really haven't seen much Magnum Opus for the last couple of weeks. I find Invictus to be the intriguing new guild on the block (at least at the top tiers).
You can pretend anyone is last months all you want, that coalition of guilds is still the strongest one. MO are kings at defending guilds, they singlehandely repelled atacks from your alliance last night, you couldnt even destroy all lions, much less get to the throne.
But then again you and Bully are basically part of Goon overflow guilds so what does it matter....
There's been a shift in power. The people have come together. Last two wars went what, 3-1, LASTNIGHT 3-1 us? Plus Shinobi wrecks atleast 20+ of your carts daily.
I see you guys have been ramping up the rhetoric too. Wont work though. Our bound runs deep. We fight for the people.The people are tired of being exploited by the Viet block.
Do not fool yourself, MO is carried by DemiGodz and TDH.
There's no one in Magnum Opus that I even care about in the slightest. I at least have some respect for the rest of your alliance.
Lol OK
Remember I mentioned re writing history. Remember if you can't take the castle YOU LOSE. You can call it w/e you like.
Shifting of power against the viet bock? Thats goes along with the borderline racist / political incorrect nonsense perhaps not you mmorpg guys but many of your alliance mates enjoy so much.
The latest is apologizing to viets for agent orange. Care to explain that one away? Should be good
as goons are famous for such actions.
Your bonds are deep with Goons lol sure they are But are goon bonds deep with you !
Notice the eve goons treatment of their allies Good luck long term. Your being used if history of goons is any evidence.
Folks the reason for all the disparaging is the Goon and allies realize they aren't the top dogs. Hence all the smack talk.
Lets compare TDH, Demigods, Magnum-opus vs Goons, TangChao, Shu, Shinobi, Kakis and god knows whatever smaller guilds you ally with.
You certainly have the number advantage. I am eagerly awaiting your spin on this
