Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184: War of 62. Second day, recon in force.

(By Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184) War of 62. Second day, recon in force. The first day of fighting had brought the warring Commanders a plethoria of recordings from the fighting, in many cases perhaps too much info. The faction leaders had an even worse job, trying to ascertain how those Commanders they didnt know so well would fare against the second days opponents. Trying to keep an eye on how the faction mates did was not an easy task either, as combat reports piled up faster than they could be read. So in the end, it came to how well the Commanders knew their opponents, and how much risk they were willing to take to get definitive strenght measurements. After nearly ten hours of fighting, the scores stood: Div 1 LEGENDS 324 - 0 House of Romulus The Romulans are defenseless, the LEGENDS are blowing them up Sith Lords 371 - 255 Bouncing Blue Berserkers The Berserkers are hitting hard, but the Siths have won 60% of the engagements Div 2 Sharks with frigging laser beams 366 - 22 Deaths Unicorns The Sharks are ripping the Unicorns to pieces, and their opening offensive have given them a 15-1advantage. Mercenaries FW-RW 189 - 230 Bouncing Blue Brigade The Brigade had a strong opening, and managed to got in front of the mercenaries, but who have most staying power? Div 3 Deaths Dawn Faction 181 - 43 Psycho Squad DDF have won better than 80% of the engagements we have seen, but surely the Psychos will improve their score? House of Strategoi 0 - 100 Independent Players Group 1 IPG is busy devising new and interesting ways to blow apart Strategoi`s Ogguns. Div 4 Faction War Dragon n NWHL 74 - 1 Faction War Clan The so far least violent conflict, -and the most loopsided. Metal Grinderz Faction War 188 - 97 M&L A.R.S.E. The Metalheads are trying to grind the Smurf formations into the dust, and so far they are succeeding pretty well. Div 5 Independent Players Group 2 154 - 25 Dawg Patrol AFF FW IPG have had the strongest opening, and have managed to gain six wins for each loss. **Raging Vengeance** 150 - 9 Indo Nusa Alliance The strong R.V. formations have met little resistance so far. Of course, the Alliance are in all likelyhood planning a late counteroffensive.

Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184: Mountain Climbing Mecha Combat #1242

(By Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184) Mountain Climbing Mecha Combat #1242

Brought to you by ANN

Highlighting the November 3358 Triple Rainbow

This time the Gaming Authorities decided we were to have a Triple Rainbow event. You know, the one where we are not allowed to have more than three Mechs of a kind in the lineup.

As we were to compete on K3 where the all the regulars would outlicence us, the hopes of a top placement were not especially high, but Bruno, -my chief Tech, was tasked with preparing a formation that would give me a fighting chance.

That took lots of time, but a few minutes before the scramble started, we could wait no longer. Ready or not, it was time to get to the Mountains.

After some close calls and repeated tries we actually managed to grab the lowest slope position. From there the going would be much worse. The crowd above me consisted of my clanmate, -Mark Cassese, and blue on blue fire is deeply frowned upon in the Star League. The others were KiloToneRcoil of the Brotherhood of Arcane Dragons + David Sifford and Darryl Proctor from the Northwind Dragons.

I am not saying I cant beat any of them, but it does in general take a (high) two-digit number of tries before they are downed, and the number of Hatorades one can bring to the fight is strictly limited. I think the highest number of fights I have ever done is around 90 during a especially long furball of a Point Mech Panic, but others might have managed to do some more. But I digress... After feeling out the allowed trio, it was obvious that I would have to bribe the RNG Gods significantly to have any shot of taking them down. And, really. Any Silver, whether you place second or fifth gives the same payout. So after launching another dozen failed strikes at the top, it was time to husband the remaining hatorades in case some other contestant dropped me to the foothills.

I was not dropped, but roward of the Black Star Lycan Rangers displaced my clanmate Mark. I hoped he could come back, but as I could do nothing to help him in that endavor, we concentrated on getting footage from all of the tops.

So when the light flashed we knew the winners had been:

Div 1 345+ (27 Commanders): Dexter Berry, Warlocks HQ (2m,12s) 2: Jaime Beltram 3: Gary Muenzel 4: Ben Rail 5: Fabio Favaro 6: Claude Poirier 7: Roy Cheah 8: Shawn Wretham 9: Jeff Haas 10: Bernard Johnson Div 2 -344 (10 Commanders): Ken Fuchs, Northwind Dragons (21m,42s) Div 3 -262 (20 Commanders): David Sifford, Northwind Dragons (4h,10m) Div 4 -189 (14 Commanders): Willie Walton, T.B. BlackWatch (4h,24m) Div 5 -143 (23 Commanders): Grego, Renegades (6m,35s) Div 6 -102 (20 Commanders): Robert Pawulski, Ronins (14m,34s) Div 7 -76 (27 Commanders): Mike Andrews, Renegades (16h,25m) Div 8 -48 (17 Commanders): colehatesme, M&L A.R.S.E. (5h,12m) Div 9 -32 (12 Commanders): Cathy Goetz, I.N.A. (13h,44m) Div 10 -20 (17 Commanders): allanbrainstorm, I.N.A. (1h,15m) Div 11 -12 (15 Commanders): laiskottelu, RED AXE (16h,44m)

Total Contestants: 202 Total medals claimed: 156 (of 165 possible)

Compared to the long Chrono we just had, the number of contestants were reduced by fifty-two. And the imbalance between the tops became more obvious as well. This time a total of nine Bronzes from a trio of tops ended unclaimed and were returned for resmelting.

The last half-hour saw four Golds being fought over. Six other Golds were held for more than two hours. So some strong winners, and some close matches. But was the strugges for the lesser prizes more even? To find out we look at the number of medals held for more than 30 minutes in this event:

.............Silvers......Bronzes

Div 1 ....1 of 4.........6 of 10 Div 2 ....3 of 4.........2 of 5 Div 3 ....2 of 4.........3 of 10 Div 4 ....4 of 4.........2 of 9 Div 5 ....3 of 4.........4 of 10 Div 6 ....4 of 4.........8 of 10 Div 7 ....3 of 4.........7 of 10 Div 8 ....4 of 4.......10 of 10 Div 9 ....4 of 4.........7 of 7 Div 10 ..4 of 4.......10 of 10 Div 11 ..3 of 4.........9 of 10

This time we had two tops (K9 and K10) without any successful medal attacks, and K11 had just one silver strike. On the other hand, all the five highest tops saw at least half the medals change hands.

Three clans managed to bring home double Golds from this event: Northwind Dragons (K2 + K3), Renegades (K5 + K6) and Indo Nusa Alliance (K9 + K10) None of the unaligned Commanders managed to get a win, and the sole repeat winner was Northwind Dragons` Ken Fuchs on K2.

Upcoming event: 10 Red tons

One might wonder. What is the difference between a 10 ton Max and an Red Ant event? The answer is that in a 10 ton event you can only use 10 tonners (of which the Red Ant currently is the only model), while you in a Red Ant event sometimes is allowed to use one or two other Mechs (in general no heavier than 15 tons each). But this time it is Ants only. Any Mech heavier than 10 tons will be disqualified and treated as an empty spot in the lineup.

Event ends May 5 between 1500 and 1530 New York Time

Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184: War of `53. Last day, -fighting to the bitter end.

(By Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184) War of `53. Last day, -fighting to the bitter end.

As the last battleday drew to a close, many clans decided they had given all they had to give, or that the score was to heavily skewed in their opponents favor. Other clans fought on, doing their level best to change the outcome, or at least manage to even the score and get into overtime.

Overtime is where the clan that did the most mistakes in the regular time (hopefully) have learned from their mistakes, and one expects to see far fewer attack losses there.

One figth turned, and two fights went into overtime, and at the (extended) end of the day the scores was:

Div 1

Warlock 25 - 10 中臣氏 The Warlocks got a last win, and arestill the reigning Champions.

Brotherhood of Arcane Dragons 76 - 76 Leviathan The score stood 40 - 40 at full time, and another bout of fighting was launched. The two teams were closely matched, and as the time ran out, and the score still was tied, the Gaming authorities declared both teams winners.

Div 2

Northwind Dragons 107 - 50 Spirit of Bunny Another handful of engagements were fought, but in the end the Dragons had won twice as many as the Bunnies.

Avengers of Bunny 34 - 45 P.F.U.D.o.R. The Unicorns kept vigilant, and the last Bunny probes were mostly repulsed.

Div 3

Black Star Lycan Rangers 104 - 10 M&L Team Banzai The Rangers outclassed the Banzai team better than 10-1.

Star League 42 - 13 Slaughter House 5 The Leaguers won a last engagement and further fighting was suspended.

Div 4

Death`s Brethren 34 - 49 T.B. BlackWatch Both sides were exhausted by the fighting done so far, so an armrestice held in place until the light flashed.

Heroes 47 - 6 Holliday Special Another fight where the contestants were plain tired of the slaughter and just waited for the war to end.

Div 5

Phoenix 76 - 0 Death`s Stalkers The Phoenixes put a last nail in the Death Stalkers coffin.

P.F.U.T.C. 29 - 44 Defenders of Bunny The Bunnies launched another wave of attacks, and the Unicorns was unable to reply in kind.

Mad Scientist. 7 17 - 37 Heroes Support The Scientists were left as spectators when the Heroes hammered home a bakers dozen additional wins.

M&L B.C. 13th A.D. 85 - 41 Alpha Legion A last dozen engagements were fought, and when the dust settled the Cats had outscored the Legion better than 2-1.

Div 6

Smurf Platoon 9 - 57 Diamond Dragons The Smurfs might have thougt it was over, but the Dragons kept up the pressure and ended up outscoring them 6-1.

Death`s Revenge 38 - 19 HF Dragoons The Revengers got enough additional wins to crush the Dragoons by a 2-1 score advantage.

" Raging Vengeance" 73 - 113 Emerald Dragons R.V. was caught of guard as the Dragons launched a massive offensive, in the end the Dragons had won more than 60% of the engagements.

ARMORED CORE 56 - 40 Guardians of Bunny The Bunnies were a spent force, and had to watch as the A.C. pulled further apart.

Div 7

Black Star Bandits 65 - 54 Ronins Disregarding, the weight disadvantage, the Ronins went on the offensive and nearly managed to to beat back the Bandits.

Death`s Disciples 82 - 30 today and tomorrow Another couple dozen engagements were resolved, and the Disciples won most of them as well.

M&L Brigade of Patrol Smurfs 64 - 22 M&L NecroManiacs The Necromancers flexed their muscles, but were drowned by waves of Smurf attacks.

HF 110 C.C. 13th A.R. 32 - 19 Heroes Ranger Raccoons The Cannon Cockers landed two final blows against the Raccoons.

Div 8

***R.V.*** 47 - 92 T.B. 1st Kearney Highlanders The struggle continued, and both sides got a bakers dozen additional wins. This left the Highlanders as winners.

Behemoth 19 - 78 M&L A.R.S.E. The behemoths managed to get some additional wins, but so did the Smurfs as well. In the end the Smurfs had a better than 80% success rate.

Sacrificial Lambs 123 - 111 JC`s Rowdy Bunch This fight turned into the bloodiest of the war. As the endtime neared the Lambs managed to even the score to 60-60, but both sides continued to land blows, and it was not until the end was in sight that the Lambs managed to pull in front.

Heroes Light Brigade 77 - 24 MurderMechs No additional attacks were launched, and the Heroes won by a 75% success rate.

Div 9

Major Steel 15 - 72 **Raging Vengeance** R.V. landed one more blow to remind the Steelers that they were ready to crush them if any offensive was mounted.

Active Sleepers 42 - 0 Jagdstaffel 2 This Battle saw no forther engagements, so the Sleepers won unopposed.

Mad Scientist 1 15 - 42 Indo Nusa Alliance Another dozen engagements were fought, and the Alliance won all but one of them.

ICP 4 - 33 *Raging Vengeance* R.V. had a superior position, and neither side saw any point in further bloodshed.

Div 10

Karma 21 - 0 Horsemen Squadron No further attacks were launched, and Karma got an unopposed win.

Raven`s Wing. 12 - 2 Dawg Patrol Exhaustion claimed both clans here as well, and in the end the Ravens outcored the Dogs 6-1. ... So how much did the weight of metal decide this war? Let us look at the Clans in each division, their average and placement:

Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184) NIODES UP FOR GRABS.

(By Sten Hugo Hiller - 627184)

NIODES UP FOR GRAB.

Well, at least if you have the knowlegde and are willing to take some calculated risks.

As usual when there is a war coming, Nicks Casino offers a friendly wager.

If you can correctly point out all the division winners for the coming clan war, then for a small Investment of 5 Niodes today (or 10 niodes for the first 12 hours of tomorrow) Nick will give you a payout of 200 Niodes. If you have all but one of the winners correct the payout is 30 Niodes.

-As usual, those participating in the war get an automatic correct answer for their own division, yet another reason to sign up.

The clans fighting in the war this war is:

Name of clan, members (average lvl of all) specialists

Division 1

.....................………...Warlock, 7 (434) 2x 25, 70, Laser. ...…...…...……………...中臣氏, 7 (400) 10, 30, DR, Laser. .....................……….Leviathan, 7 (409) 30, SR, TR, Laser. Brotherhood of Arcane Dragons 8 (422) 80, 2x 1200, Laser

We have a new challenger here (中臣氏), but I think the Warlocks may win this.

Probable round 1 setup:

Warlock - Brotherhood of Arcane Dragons 中臣氏 - Leviathan

Division 2

............………..Spirit of Bunny, 8 (303) 10, 40 TR, Laser. ......……..Northwind Dragons, 11 (220) 10, DR, TR, Laser. ……………Avengers of Bunny, 7 (195) 10, 30, 1200, Laser. Pink Fluffy Unicorns Dancing .., 7 (198) 10, DR, TR, Laser.

Despite the much higher average of the Spirit of Bunny, I hold the Northwind Dragons as favorites.

Probable round 1 setup:

Spirit of Bunny - P.F.U.D.o.R. Northwind Dragons - Avengers of Bunny

Division 3

Myth & Legends: Team Banzai 14 (207) 70, 2x 1200 Laser. ......…………Slaughter House 5, 8 (188) 2x DR, TR, Laser ……..Black Star Lycan Rangers, 8 (189) 40, 65, Ice, Laser. .........….....………...Star League, 7 (184) 10, 30, 90 Laser.

The Black Star Lycan Rangers are the reigning champions and my favorites to win

Probable round 1 setup:

M&L Team Banzai - Star League SH5 - B.S.L.R.

Division 4

.........……...Death`s Brethren, 7 (185) 2x DR, Laser. The Brotherhood BlackWatch, 9 (177) 90, SR, DR, Laser. ........................……….Heroes, 8 (167) 20, 30, 70, Laser. ..............…….Holliday Special, 8 (149) 40, 70, SR, Laser

This will probably be a close struggle between Death`s Brethren and T.B. BlackWatch. I think BlackWatch will manage to get a narrow win here.

Probable round 1 setup:

Death`s Brethren - Holliday Special T.B. BlackWatch - Heroes

Division 5

Myth & Legends Black Cats.. 10 (140) 40, SR, TR, Laser. ...............…...….Alpha legion, 10 (140) 25, Cannon, Laser. ...........................…...Phoenix, 10 (137) 80, 2x DR, Laser. ...............…...Death`s Stalkers, 8, (138) 25, Laser. ….Pink Fluffy Unicorn Training ..7 (123) 10, 2x DR, Laser. ........................Mad Scientist. 7, 9 (131) 3x 40, Laser. ......…...…..Defenders of Bunny, 7 (134) 20, 30, 40, Laser. ......…………….Heroes Support, 8 (128) 30, 55, 70, Laser.

Phoenix seem to be the favorites here.

Probable round 1 setup:

M&L B.C. 13th A.D. - P.F.U.T.C. Alpha Legion - Mad Scientist. 7 Phoenix - Defenders of Bunny Death`s Stalkers - Heroes Support

Division 6

…..Death`s Revenge, 8 (127) 90, SR, Laser. "Raging Vengeance",11 (122) 20, Laser. ...……...HF Dragoons, 8 (121) SR, DR, Cannon, Laser. …..ARMORED CORE, 8 (106) 10, 20, 1200, Laser. ...……...Smurf Platoon, 7 (107) 55, 2x 1200, Laser. …..Diamond Dragons, 12 (105) 70, 90, Fire, Laser. …..Guardians of Bunny, 7 (99) 20, 1200, Laser. ……Emerald Dragons, 12 (94) 30, 40, Laser.

After their performance in the last few wars, the Diamond Dragons must be considered one of the favorites. But Death`s Revenge will be a major stumbling block for them, so this division is pretty open. , Probable round 1 setup:

Death`s Revenge - Smurf Platoon "Raging Vengeance" - Diamond Dragons HF Dragoons - Guardians of Bunny ARMORED CORE - Emerald Dragons

Division 7

……………..Death`s Disciples, 11 (91) 30, 55, DR, Laser. .…Myth & legends of Brigade...13 (91) 950, 2x 1200, Laser ......……….today and tomorrow, 10 (88) 25, DR, Laser. Myth & Legends NecroManiacs, 11 (89) 20, Sr, TR, Laser. ............…….Black Star Bandits, 13 (82) 55, 2x 950, Laser .….HF 110 Cannon Company... 7 (81) 20, 30, 1200, Laser …..Heroes Ranger Raccoons, 10 (80) 30, Laser. ......………...............….Ronins, 11 (79) 2x 70, 950, Laser.

The Black Star Bandits have been solid Gold winners for a long stretch of wars, and I think they can win this year as well.

Probable round 1 setup:

Death`s Disciples - Black Star Bandits M&L Brigade of patrol Smurfs - HF 110 C.C. 1st A.R. today and tomorrow - Heroes Ranger Raccoons M&L NecroManiacs - Ronins

Division 8

...…….***Raging Vengeance***, 8 (75) 20, SR, DR, Laser. The Brotherhood 1st Kearney...16 (74) 20, 40, 55, Laser. ...............…………..Behemoth, 12 (60) 10, 55, Laser. ..………….Heroes Light Brigade 8 (60) 20, 30, 40, Laser. ............………..Sacrificial Lambs 7 (61) 2x 30, 40, Laser. ...…..Myth & Legends Angelic..16 (53) 630, SR, DR, Laser. ............………...Murdermechs, 12 (49) 2x 30, 630, Laser. .........……..JC`s Rowdy Bunch, 12 (48) 2x SR, TR, Laser.

One should never discount JC`s Rowdy Bunch, but here they are badly outmassed. I think The Brotherhood 1st Kearney Highlanders will prove the strongest clan here, but ***Raging Vengeance*** might have something to say about that.

Probable round 1 setup:

***R.V.*** - Sacrificial Lambs T.B. 1st Kearney Highlanders - M&L A.R.S.E. Behemoth - MurderMechs Heroes Light Brigade - JC`s Rowdy Bunch

Division 9

……......….Major Steel, 8 (47) 20, DR, Laser. **Raging Vengeance** 11 (46) 2x 10, Ice, Laser. …....….Active Sleepers, 8 (32) DR, Laser. …...................……..ICP, 8 (27) 10, Laser. ....*Raging Vengeance*, 8 (27) 30m, 2x DR, Laser. .......…..Mad Scientist 1, 8 (23) DR, TR, Laser. ......Indo Nusa Alliance, 14 (23) 150, 230, 420, Laser. ...…..........Jagdstaffel 2, 11 (23) 20, 2x 30, Laser.

The weight of metal and past performance points to **Raging Vengeance** as the most likely winner.

Probable round 1 setup:

Major Steel - *Raging Vengeance* **Raging Vengeance** - Mad Scientist 1 Active Sleepers - Indo Nusa Alliance ICP - Jagdstaffel 2

Division 10

......................Karma, 9 (22) 20, 2x 230, Laser. Horsemen Squadron, 9 (17) 150, 230, SR, Laser .........Raven`s Wing, 11 (15) 150, TR, Laser. ..............Dawg Patrol, 7 (14) Laser.

Karma should have this under control.

Probable round 1 setup:

Karma - Dawg Patrol Horsemens Squadron - Raven`s Wing
