lol - proof everyone likes picking on the goats :P
most of what im seeing here is how i feel about war on horus
I rarely enjoy taking a Syrtis fort though i don't discourage it and will try to get the group to go to herb instead of Alga ( im 1 of those people who will argue in realm/general chat about it
)
(Syrtis High Population Time)
if Alsius takes herb with 10-15+ players - 5-10 minutes we will lose the fort too 25-30 Syrtis players - basicly kill us off 1 by 1 then mass on the door
(Syrtis "Night Crew")
it's grown alot from the 5-6 people who use to sit at the gate trying to stop ignis everynight
If Alsius takes herb at night normally have 10-15 players - Syrtis will start off small and take a few minutes to regroup too actually reach our numbers and on few ocasions outnumber us by a few - while there fighting i always notice that there not interested in Fighting the Players there just trying to force there door down and recapture as fast as possible - so they stack auras, mod and more - they will try this 5-7 times before trying to actually fight the players.
If Alsius is holding there fort for more then 20 minutes - Syrtis becomes lazy and either log off, camp bridges, even had a few camp the Alsius CS, - they will try 1 or 2 more attacks on a fort then we wont see any Syrtis Players until "
Trelleborg fort is under Attack" we all laugh at them and normally head to trelle because we know IMP is next - they lose normally trying to capture imp and then run to empty herb and we all end up with no forts (boring)
now for Ignis i enjoy most fights with ignis just about anytime of the day
Ignis's Population is alot more Balanced threw all hours of the day not massing in any special timezone - Alsius can almost always enjoy a good fight even if only for a few minutes
now Alsius has a few "Noob Leaders" (low lvls leading other low lvls around :P)
which normally leads to Alga/Meni Fights and most of them constantly lvl aggers to lvl 4 (FUUUUUU)
part of the reason for taking empty forts is because of lvling forts.. there almost impossible to take unless you either have a zerg or the enemy is very very few
