SHADOW

I myself will b sending a thousand or so hopefully.

SantaHoe

I'd help, only my planet was attacked by about 10k+ ships this past few days, but by next week I might be able to gather 1k or so of my own ships to pitch in.

OSiriS

Keep the attack date as the 28th, I have a couple hundred other planets interested, so unless he gets help or clears out before the attack he is toast.

Ladies and gentlemen....
I got word from our ISP today that our 2Mbit line will be about a week late for the reset. There is nothing we can do about this, so I am not going to whine, but here is the exact day by day plan of how the reset will work:

The current round will end on the 6th of July, at 10.00 server time (CET).

Then, the game is stopped, taken down, and totally offline. We spend the day moving, and open up the server as soon as we can, hopefully at the end of the day.

On the 7th, the server will be up for joining. Then, no ticks will start until the 10th, leaving a couple of days for people to sign up properly.You can start building, electing an SC and minsters and such, but time will not pass.

On the 10th of july, the time will start to go by, and the game is on!

We do apologize for this delay, but it was out of our hands. We do look forward to the next round, and hope you all will be there.

the Attack date has been changed to the 3rd of july

Check in #fortress.ie for further updates

Shiminay

3rd of July is good!

At that stage, I hope to have 1500 serious ships or there abouts - 1025 ATM (700 of which are just fighters so that hardly counts)

GreenHell

I am slowly rebuilding my fleet after some ****head raped my planet and nicked all my roids.
I prolly won't be back in full force before the reset but some ******* is going down.

OSiriS

erm we go tonight I think. Look at the first post.

Pretence

3rd July I'd say by Kharns post

GreenHell

but when is the reset going to happen then.

Pretence

Check Montys post above he seems pretty sure of the attack for the 3rd..............I dunno

GreenHell

the Attack date has been changed to the 3rd of july
this indeed

ButcherOfNog

you do realise you'll barely get a shot off before his 1000+ Destroyers open up and wipe the lot of you out?

Hobbes

Thats when you log in Butcher and mop up the remains of the lot of them

Why is it whenever I play and log back in I've been wiped out by the locals ?

GreenHell

I am bring some of the heavy weight from my galaxy along for the ride I dunno how much that will bring up the amount of hardware at the battle but hopefully it will help.

Shiminay

It's gonna be such fun having our fleets wiped out by this guy

I've finally got my score up to over a million and it'll be plumetting again in a few days
Ah well

Wheres your heart wheres your passion.

Hold on your right aaahhhh.

/me jumps out a window

OSiriS

Butch, you fail to see the reasoning behind a large scale co-ordinated assault. there are going to be about 300-500 attacking him at the same time, most of whom will be sending 200+ destroyers so i do believe our 20,000+ destroyers will make mince meat of his 5000 before they can blink. If it is done right, we could actually murder this guy. What will be the problem though is that concordium may not see the funnt side of this, and go into all out retribution mode. In which case he will have more defence than he could possibly need, and all who attack him will have their fleets return to a smoldering rock that used to be their planet. Why the hell do you think we are doing this now. the reset comes 3 days later, so it's not as if we will have any use for your riches and large fleets. nI do hope you will be joining us Butch

GreenHell

Come on lads what time we lauching this attack.

SantaHoe

Huh, eeem... isn't the attack underway right now?

Monty - the one and only

ok that went kinda weird.....

Ive been getting reports from the other planets in the assault. most got did no damage and left....this includes jokers fleet. most are very confused as to how this happened as Shayol Ghul only has 121 emp pods.

Only 45 of my ships survived, 14 of them are distroyers.


Post your reports here

Shiminay

I'll have in the region of 4000 ships attacking tonight. I'll let y'all know how it goes
