HAHAHAHAHAHA... I comanded Black Company on this battle. Kudos to Kesh for a brilliant maneuver. Trip down memory lane. We had very few ladders and siege equipment to start the battle. It was a field army who attacked a castle based on timing of events at large. Someone wasted huge amounts of the construction material we had available etc etc. In short we had one advantage over the opponent, a group of archers, mostly clan members. None of which were individually great but the unit was cohesive, followed orders, and gave us a weapon. We used it to burn tickets and equipment at the stairwell once inside the castle. We didn't have the infantry to push walls, nor ladders to create new flanks. Our only option was a battle of attrition. After punching a hole through the center of the castle and capping the right wall (where we built a lone spawn as someone wasted our equipment) we began a death struggle for the stairs. Much like the Germans at Verdun we hoped to keep the enemy there and use directed archer fire (artillery) to make up the difference. It was much more effective than the video represents. During the course of such action Kesh, the opposing commander, pulled a brilliant maneuver. Recognizing that our spawn lay even with their flags he stacked up and jumped down from the castle walls and capped our flags. I didn't anticipate it. We lost. I enjoy strategy. This game, was probably my favorite game of all time. To this day, I don't think I've found another which creates same feeling. It was necessary to work together because the system was rudimentary, the stakes were high, months of planning and effort went into these battles. Negotiations, clan affiliation, logistics, and personalities played a huge role in what happened to the map. It was a lot of fun. Hope everyone is doing well. Hope your families are well. Much Love.
