Things that made the New Year Right

Well I admit New Year hang over is quite messy when embracing the new year. And as for Rembrandt there are cool things to be known. First stop, the official announcement of the new community crew who resides from Rembrandt server. Next is the execution of Novia wherein the allied faction Eminence and Symbols Faction impressively defeated the nemesis of the Ice Wizard's Tower. Blood donation drive also took place in Singapore and help lives through this glorious act but the pioneers also have something in hand, GE goodies! Another thing is, the GM's made their first in-game event called Trivial Question and Answer wherein the pioneers will respond to questions using microphones to broad their answer. And for those pioneers craving for item of the month, IAH made an extension til 30th of January. And congratulations to Destiny Faction for making the first sunday of January, because they hold the highest colony point after an exhausting war. Lastly, the hidden civilization of Zeia is on its way to the new found world so are you ready for this?

We have a good new start this 2009 and I hope things will be better as time goes by. So again I'll keep you posted pioneers!

Colony War? Duh think again!

Am not posting just to report yesterday's colony wars but instead am here to rant about this slime tactic. And besides am seething with annoyance with this dirty use of spinelles on the so called colony wars!

(Hell to the yeah at Bona Vista River, eight legged freaks)

This is the first 15 mins before the war at Bona Vista river and Pradera Ceniza, the opposing faction already stormed the respective colonies with numerous spinelles. Actually, the alliance where my faction stood aim for spin-less colony wars but what would you expect the opposing alliance is use to find ways of dirty tactic. I don't know, if this opposing alliance is really used to be the bad guys in Rembrandt and there is no new to that. So in the end we let them eat their own spinelle tactic, but unfortunately the opposing alliance bagged many colonies because we are caught unaware.

I don't care of what they might say because this entry of mine is a rant! I really do hope IAH or IMC might consider 1:1 summon of spinelles or might consider removing it completely to avoid abuse.

I'll keep you posted pioneers and as I say if ever spinelles are still available in weeks to come, you might change your mind not to go colony wars.

(Memoirs of the miserable idea of Colony Wars)

Well all in all the war of the factions is a total mess, the essence of defending and attacking colonies are insignificant in this event. It's more of I break the colony, then I will spam a horde of spinelles and lets see if you can withstand the lag and abrupt disconnection. This is considered abuse and I hope again they will reconsider removing this spinelle on those bellem boxes sold at the item NPCs. Eitherway, congratulations to all colony holders and I'll keep you posted pioneers!

Update: Faction Wars 3rd week

The colony wars yesterday was abit predictable in terms of defense and usual tactics. But it was great to check on the results because there are movements in terms of colony occupation. And here are the results.

Bach - Colony Holders
Anything Faction (7)
X Faction (12)
Baron Faction (2)
House of the Cross Faction (1)
Aggressor Faction (1)

Tetra Hill Colony - Silver Hammer x100

As you can see some of the factions in Bach managed to secure some colonies for them and at least fighting the big factions in two hours are worth their glory. In terms of Rembrandt, the colony wars was normal in terms of no specific target colony. And again the colony wars in my opinion for the past weeks is not nice at all. The colony wars is now like, we occupy the colony, face the wrath of the mini boss spinelle which wear off the essence of colony wars. I hope the people concern about programming should be aware that this spinelles are not of any help anymore. So again I'll keep you posted pioneers!

Update: Faction Wars 2nd week

The colony wars today was pretty unusual because there are no movements of ousting occupied faction in respective colonies from last week. But for the update here are the results of today's War of the Factions 2nd week session.

The colonies were tightly defended and some where lost due to some surprise attacks from faction who just show up.

And I hope they disable the increasing number of spinelles due to further abuse during the colony wars. Then again I'll keep you updated pioneers!

Blood Fest for Rembrandt

(Holders of 1st CW in Rembrandt; All Stars -5, Osiris -4, Destiny -4, Le Conquistador-3,
Templars -2, Symbols -2, Outcasts -1, Resonance -1, and Eminence -1)

It seems the new pioneers of Rembrandt knew their target in this Colony War. And the results are pretty obvious as you look through the territories.

I agree on the idea that in this server merge, the pioneers along with their factions will unite to try and take down their former server tyrants. And I think most of the pioneers love the result of this first Colony Wars for Rembrandt. But the next question is, will this result be consistent or they will try another path to change things up? But do take note - a good alliance is better than good equips because numbers still count.

Well who knows, its for you to decide pioneers so good luck. Congratulations to the first Colony holders of Rembrandt Server.
