looks like SoF is gonna be quite outnumbered. even the fact that they are fighting netters if they can pull off the W ill be impressed. a 24 country disadvantage is rather significant i would think.

I think so too considering how well the netters can follow a good strat. It will really help if they can pick better targets and really pull off some good chats.

You have to expect the netters to have countries who won't attack and won't restart. Warring tags usually have 100% restart rate. Evo and NM are strictly netters, so some of the guys will not want to bother attending chats or restarting. There is that factor that a lot of people overlook, as well as the communication barrier that we're still working through. Very difficult getting 3 tags all on the same page, when they all have different ideas and opinions and have different online availabilities.

So I don't think the 24 countries will make THAT much of a difference, considering all we're up against. SoF has it easy in terms of organizing.

actually thomas i feel like everyone on your side has alot of motivation to run good war countries, attend warchats, and restart. i think everyone on your wants to beat big bag sof and try to prove we bit off more than we can chew.

now that you mentioned it, i was just wondering how you guys are structuring your warchats?

otoh thomas I'm in EVO this set, so clearly in any situation EVO is likely to dominate=)

note to all: This is a joke.

Also Chevs sucks and he will be the one getting pooped on!

Chev's

Sof needs no motivation, but you also have the added part of SOF the big bad war alliance can't be beat by Netting alliances who are taking a set away from netting for a casual fun war.

It'll be fun, as long as we can find the time to attend all the mandatory warchats each alliance has, it should be a good fight.

are you saying collab will have 100% restart and chat attendance? cause it sounds like you just put down your allies in this conflict

I think he's more alluding to the fact that in comparison to NM and Evo, we tend to war on a more regular basis. We usually see around a 90% restart rate, still not the 95%+ of the strictly warring tags.

Also, we'll likely be trimming our fat in order to make the numbers more representational before the war :)

well i suppose there will be a lower restart rate however i think it will be much higher in this war. i think typically the reason netting clans fall off is usually cause they have been FSed and were not planning nor interested to war that set. since this is an arranged war and everyone knows they will be fighting there may be more effort put forth by members since now they have something to prove (beating SoF).

thats purely speculation of course. i certainly wouldnt say every member in SoF is better at warring then every member in the opposing clans but if members get lazy and slack SoF will run through them.

FYI, we got our senior veterans back, though most of them don't have a lot of time to play due to university/education.

The other new members applied of their own volition rather than us sending messages out or actively recruiting. Probably some SoF spies :P (joke!)

*bangs head on the wall to stop laughing*

I remember in highschool year 9 (years ago), it was in one class, and there were a lot of guys in our grade at the time playing earth (eg. 100). There were Solers, Lafers and maybe camelot? discussing strategy, when one of our class mates joined in and they asked what clan he was in, and he said He joined Sof, and the other guy replied "you better be careful who you say that too, you might get bashed"

hahahahaha omg its funny, the next year these were the guys that tried to go full ganster. Some of them did end up in jail (gaol) though :X.

If the word 'Evolution' or shorthand form 'Evo' is posted anywhere in a thread, it's guaranteed to attract long, trollish/joke responses from surrounding community members. It's kinda an unknown law of physics, really...
I am a troll. Everything I say must be assumed to be said solely to provoke an exaggerated reaction to the current topic. I fully intend to bring absolutely no substance to any discussion, ongoing or otherwise. Conversing with me is pointless.

I agree. This should be a lot of fun. And more to what Thomas said, I think the advantage in countries will even out to a great extent with the organizational advantage of using one website. It will be a great contest.

To put it out there ahead of time, I think if SOF is able to win you won't see a real turn around for the first 2 weeks. Restart rates more than anything should prove the contest.

From my experience coordinating with other clans, if Evo leads the warchats and all the other clan members turn up and do as they are told, then its less of an issues. However cracks always start to occur particularly due to style and preference.

When coordinating with netgaining clans, they are sometimes not willing to trash their country to take down a large target. Or working with smaller clans, their attendance and restart rates are lower. Working with warclans they have different preferences for missile use, target selection, troops or jets etc.

I'd say it would be two weeks before cracks appear all over the place due to pressure from Sof. I believe Sof will have an attendance and restart advantage over some of the clans fighting against them.

Who the hell are you? Evo doesn't even have a war leader involved right now. So I'm curious how they are going to lead the way and tell me and my guys to do what we are told. That's going to cause the "cracks" you speak of before anything else does.

To be honest, right now my prediction is it will look like a draw in the end.

SOF is the superior fighters,
They build excellent countries top to bottom,
Major orginizaton/familiarity advantage (don't underestmate this.)


Collab/Evo/NM
Will have incredible countries top to bottom
20ish country advantage.


SOF needed/wanted to be pushed to their max.
This IS going to do it.

I think it'll look close to a draw, but if it isn't, I think SOF is more likely to pull it out in the end,
but, that is due to experience, and orgnization, not frm quality of players/countries.

I expect this to be one of the best wars in years.

well we are slowly tagging more countries by bugging old vets after we saw how many new players evo had, problem is they are 2 weeks behind at this point.

honestly I think Sof will win handily by the end simply due to the fact they enjoy warring more and will have more to prove in their eyes... I could be wrong :P but I guess it all depends on how much time the netter side is willing to dedicate
