Vote: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/12NUeelrfsGEh81miZAk8b3uz5dHtYOK-dbegR5rqNTg/viewform?usp=send_form Results so far: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/12NUeelrfsGEh81miZAk8b3uz5dHtYOK-dbegR5rqNTg/viewanalytics I will definitely also be looking at comments on the form and in this thread. I'm keeping the vote itself somewhat simplistic, but I'm very curious to see what sort of consensus might emerge generally. |

Alright boys, this is the moment we have all been waiting for. The moment we slaughter bilgewater, raise their traitor corpses as the undead, and march to glory in a bright flash of death! We may die again today, but we shall raise a battle so grand that hell itself trembles in our wake. |

Hypothetically, if we catch out and slaughter Bilgewater can we have their undead sailors use their navy to blockade and separate Ionia/Freljord? |

I think the first thing we have to consider is whether or not the other three competitors have ways of nullifying our army in some fashion. Any ideas on how they can do that, or are they unable to interact with our forces? |

Also, to everyone who's saying we need to attack both Blige AND Frel, remember that our army's the only thing keeping us in this game right now; we spread it too thin and we'll end up getting nothing done other than inconveniencing the other teams. Choose on or the other, not both. |

we will intercept only one of them, you just pick which ones you prefer. And we should get bilge since if don't we will be in deep shit XD Edited by StormRevolver, Dec 19 2014, 07:15 AM.

That's good to hear. We still need to figure out what to do with Freljord, though. Attacking Bilge, even with superior numbers and a sneak attack, will diminish our forces. Will that be enough to scare off Frel from the mainland if they don't bring us along for the ride? And if they decide to bring Ionia with them, what then? We (or at least some of us, like myself) were hoping to ally with Ionia sometime in the near future. We'll have to have a plan if they're chosen and we deny them both access to the island, |

this will depend entirely on our match performance. if we win 2 matches from 3 we pretty much destroy bilge. IF. But i still think we should get stormhaven after it and then we can dictate. Edited by StormRevolver, Dec 19 2014, 08:57 AM.

As long as we can win 1 featured match there is a good chance we beat bilge. About ionia its to late into the arc to really make an allies at this point there was a time when we pushed for that idea but things fell through. Also I'm curious the preemptive attack vote is that decided by whichever one gets the most votes? If that's the case we should vote no for preemptive attack on frel and yes and bilge. Also does the blockade for nyroth go up after the attack? Edit: Nvm answered my own question Edited by silencermage, Dec 19 2014, 09:21 AM.

I would really like to know the military strength of each faction before voting on anything. Also, if we were to vote for multiple preemptive strikes, would we be taking their armies on 1 at a time, combined, or be splitting our forces? My guess would be that we would fighting a combined army of the multiple factions, but I think those that are voting for Freljord attack and Bilgewater attack are assuming they would be 1 at a time.

Meanwhile in Top Lane...

I highly recommend we go after Bilgewater and Bilgewater only, spreading ourselves too thin will end up with us winning nothing at all. If we can take Bilgewater out of the picture, both Ionia and the Freljord will be unable to resist us. We should also concentrate everything on Bilgewater because despite our advantage the battle will be tough, we can expect to go 0-3 in the battle matches against them. Concentrating everything against them will mean that we can prevail regardless of our performance on the fields. |

Seconded. Pretty sure the listings on the Military page are pre-Krocylea. Edited by ChroniclerC, Dec 19 2014, 02:15 PM.

Also, I think that if Freljord actually lets us into Yoroth, we should not do a preemptive strike against them. Would kinda send the wrong message, "Do what we want or die! Oh, you did what we wanted? Die anyways!" So yeah, if Freljord lets us into Yoroth, or if we have to split our forces/take bilge and Freljord at same time, we should not attack them. If Freljord doesn't let us in, Blockade after we wipe out Bilge, or preemptive strike if it turns out we can take care of Bilge and then fight Freljord without splitting our forces.

I agree. On the off chance that the Freljord does want us with them (perhaps for protection against Bilgewater?) we shouldn't preemptively strike them. Focus all of our military might against Bilgewater, and that should hopefully allow us to control the rest of the arc. |

Just thought of another idea, what if we called the void for some backup? |

I think no matter what at this point we preemptively KO bilgewater. We really don't want to deal with the possibility of a team up, and the Pirates have proven their willingness to attack us. If the Frejlord wants to take us along, then I think things can work out between us. If not, well we have an army, and they really don't. |

I don't think that will even be made an option for us. The factions community has gotten pretty tired of constant void invasions. It is getting pretty repetitive and dull. Which brings me to another point, factions needs some new antagonists other than the Void, so we can have a more in depth plot than the bad guys are trying to destroy the world when ever there is a failed danger check. Also, I think we should do our preemptive strike on Bilge somewhere other than Stormhaven. I know people want to take it over, but if we fight bilge at a port city they can bombard us with navy, if we fight them deeper inland they lose their main advantage in combat and we can always just march our army to Stormhaven afterwards.
