Colonial Victory War 97

[Iskander]

Congratulations, Colonials, on your victory in war 97!

I usually do a bit of reflecting after each war, write down a few memorable events that happened during the war and share them on this forum, inviting others to share their war stories as well. It helps me differentiate between the wars and prevent them all from merging into one collective memory too much. Another reason I do this, is to provide a bit more positivity to this forum.

Having said that: I have barely been active this war, and only did some scrooping and logi in the early days of the war. So, while I don't have any memorable war stories, I invite everyone else to share their war stories instead. And while I play on Able shard, I invite players from the other shards to share their memorable stories as well. These can be heroic, silly, inspiring or funny: lets hear them!

Well my experience on Baker has been that wardens know only 2 things. Tanks and artillery shells. How many? Doesn't matter keep making them.

You kill a tank and 3 more show up. You get artilleried for a solid 10 minutes. Other video games are suffering from a lack of tanks due to the sheer amount wardens are pulling in Baker.

My experiences as a Warden tanker are the opposite: no matter how many Colonial tanks we destroy, they just keep coming. Especially since 1.0, as the Colonial faction seems to have fully embraced the doctrine of using swarms of Spathas/Falchions to counter Warden armor. (It is a good tactic, mind you: play according to your strengths)

As for artillery: my experience is about 60-40 in Warden favour, but there is a Colonial super-coalition of several regiments that include Asian regiments, who are notorious for "24/7" shelling capabilities, as they seem to co-orindate their OPs to take advantage of their 'round the world coverage'. (Again, great tactic: play to your strenghts) I believe the name of the coalition is MSA, but I'm not sure.

Able shard Collies can shoot art 24/7 with China Logi.

Baker shard is much more calm and relaxing in that matter

It's very small but during war 97 we were getting hit by fire rockets, the fire was put out before I got back with my bucket of water and I saw a guy just barely get missed and set on fire, he stood waiting for the obvious outcome, he's going to burn to death he knows it, everyone does, but my bucket was full so I threw it at him and put him out. Literally the first time someone hasn't just ran around screaming on fire so I could actually attempt to hit them with the water. Saved a burning mans life.

I have yet to see fire in action, was just never around at the right (wrong?) time.
