Collies have been throwing a lot of bodies in to Farranac Coast and DeadLands this first day of the war.

Yeah the Collies walked straight in and now we're stuck doing bridge battles until we get artillery and white whales unlocked. SIGMA regiment held out the longest at Mara but have now pulled back and are preparing for a counter-push.

e. I was worried that the Collies wouldn't have any fight left in them for this war tbqh

"That's right. We've evolved."

I have heard that it was a couple of Warden clans who got into a giant teamkilling fest over a BB location, instead of actually fighting against the Collies.

I hadn't heard of that fight yet. I'll ask around and see if I can get details.

yeah, basically, two coalitions got into a fight over a bunker base at spearhead and started teamkilling each other. Then, in a completely different area, another outfit got mad that someone was building near them, and started teamkilling anyone building around Luxa.

All in all, a total poo poo show.

Two minor coalitions got into a pissing contest over build sites (on day 1!! When building in farranac is stupid as poo poo!!!!) and wound up dragging a huge chunk of the population of the hex into team killing, and vote banning while Terra & Scarp burned to the ground, and now the hex is a shitshow and there's massive waves of partisans already combing through the backlines because of it.

It was dumb nonsense that has nothing to do with us, if we lose this war because of it the Warden community will make sure never to forget it though. I am certain Nine and the good French clans will lay down the sick burns for us so lets focus on the present matter at hand.

Me, Roy and pokchu are pleased with goons despite poo poo hitting the fan of actually falling back across the bridges to set up Bunker Baser Flustercluck with the Order lads. If we lose interest in feeding it and the bridge battles around that front we can give the keys to them.

But yeah it was very dicey before Huskhollow Relic fell, I've never seen break through scout raiders like that. Legit looming out the shadows every direction. The Colonials are not toothless victorian children a cough away from death despite what the weird holdout Reddit faction nerds say.

For now despite the rocky start we shall concentrate on doing the following for the next few days:

1) Build or adopt a BB at Cord or Fading Lights.

2) Keep feeding the BB at Bone Haft, and fighting a delaying action there if you are in the mood for shootymans.

3) Get logi set up to flow through Buckler Sound, as per Pokchu's MSPaint map. (Backline Callums and Tine, midline Buckler, possible frontline Fading Lights)

4) General anti-partisan poo poo in Stonecradle: murder partis, build watchtowers, plug holes in AI.

I'm in SIGMA regiment and we're also focusing our efforts on conquering Farranac Coast and building a second line base up near Cord. Does GOON have a diplomat in the SIGMA discord? It could be worth looking into doing joint ops and mutual logi support.

Yeah, you're welcome in the goon discord (all goons are). A number of people in other clans are both goons and diplomats for their clan, so you would not be the only one that is in another clan. Just a word of warning though, SIGMA has not endeared themselves to the greater Warden faction for a number of reasons, mainly a bit too much ego and not enough results to back it up.... but we're a chill bunch and you are welcome to hang out and just kinda, be in our discord.

The first SIGMA regiment died sometime in the mid 80's and the 2nd SIGMA regiment has been rebuilt from scratch over the course of the last few wars. IDK if the bad rep is from the older incarnation because the Australian TZ crew at least seems pretty chill.

We're regaining ground in Farranac by inches. These early war period often feel like were just holding the line until artillery unlocks. Arty is such a force multiplier I think one of the big factors that won us the last couple wars is that Wardens seem to be better at getting their big guns up and running than the Colonials.

I'm not sure if there's something wrong with me, but this is the second time I've read almost an entire thread about a game that I do not own.

Hoping I can pick this game up in the not too distant future and introduce myself by accidentally running some of you over with a truck.

The end of last war I outdid myself with 12 roadkills in 30 seconds (FMAT were having a TK battle in front of a town hall they were supervising and I joined in unexpectedly)

The new vehicle physics caused your trucks to gain insane hydrolics if you had your fps over 60. It also was impossible to control. how_disgusting learned this the hard way when I became an uncontrolled pinball truck near the a bb we were building. It was _very_ funny.

Sicness was apparently learning still learning the ways of etiquette of logistics parked weirdly doing logistics and was vote banned. Maybe things escalated, I was not there.

That is still some dog poo poo behavior, no clan should abuse the half assed system for petty reasons. Half the drat toxic accusations in the reviews and the community rep suffers from this nonsense.

I hadn't heard of that one. I heard about a KGG guy intentionally TKing and blocking traffic and got blown up. Plus a V guy dropped a mortar on a Sigma squad for lol random and later got ambushed while he was driving a logi truck. Just the usual Foxhole drama.

The only real incident I know for certain is when we changed our Discord logo to a rainbow one for LGBTQ month. A reserve officer disabled a bot and broadcast to all the servers using it that as he was a Christian having a rainbow logo was against his religion. He got banned from the regiment for being a oval office.

e. apart from the discord banning I wasn't there for the other two incidents and don't know what actually happened

Essentially Sigma needs to look into that and punish those that did it.

This is a very taboo thing, abusing the half assed punishment system to troll new players.

We usually have some officers running logi in Callums Cape so drop a whisper to any high rank sigma member about the incident or bring it up on the Sigma discord. It would help if you have screenshots of those involved.
