RWZ Ship Raid - Friday Aug 14, 8:30 PM EST

Okay, I'll be running a Rikti Mothership Raid on this coming Friday, August 14th. Start time will be 8:30 PM EST.

FYI, the person shouting on the Request channel will not be Ironblade this time. An alt SG needs the beacon so I'll be there as Dark Devices. I imagine a dark defender might be useful.

I'll be there...with TimeLord's Companion. She's a lvl 50 MA/SD scrapper.

Thanks for the heads up!

I'll try to make it with my Fire/Dark Corr, Apocalyptica Noir! =)

Yay, I get another chance!
DCed and came back in to RWZ 2, then never got back into the first zone.
Fingers crossed this time =D

I'll see if I can make it, I'm working that day, but I should be home waay before 8:30.

Xegreny - Blaster|Level 50|Energy Blast Energy Manipulation Force Mastery|Vigilante
Taxibot REBIRTH - Defender|Level 50|Empathy & Sonic Blast & Psychic Mastery|Hero
Acton Blake - Dominator|Level 15|Electric Control & Electric Assault|Praetorian-Loyalist

I should be there, I like punching monkeys ... with my fists

Lan-kun SS/EA will be ready to smash face.

Are you running multiple runs? I probably will not make one ran exactly then, but can probably make ones after that one.

I can probably make it out in time on my scrapper. I do love killing aliens.

Sigh, never mind, got ganked by work for mandatory overtime friday night. Sigh.

I have RL plans, which is too bad because I like talking in request when I'm not supposed to. Best of luck.

I'm not sure if I can make the first one, but I will try - bringing Isotope 167, most likely, but may be it will be Maurya.

MSGT Morris will be staged on site at Point Du Hoc.

I'll be there!

Well, that was informative. I now have six names written down who I am NEVER teaming with again. I think that's a first - usually I get good people on my team. I should get a badge for the crap I pulled off. Got shot down way too many times, basically crawled into the vent, and planted a charge under heavy enemy fire with no suppressive fire from my mostly useless squad. Mad cred to Herc, though, for sticking with me.

Good Raids Ironblade

And Ticonderoga if you were the MSTG we did not follow cus you were not leading right. You went deep in the ship before anyone and expected us to follow? No it does not work that way. We move as a cohesive unit as Iron lead in the 2nd raid and please ignore me

Okay, in all seriousness, no offense intended, what exactly are you talking about? Everything I've ever learned is that battles are not won by standing around in a giant cluster, then jumping into another section without first clearing and securing an infil and exfil route, they're won by always moving forward, taking ground, laying down suppressive fire around the target and destroying the enemy. I've noticed none of that. There's no advancing on line, there's no organized push through any sectors, its utter chaos. The only part that made any sense to me was the destruction of the pylons. And at a certain point, without completely clearing out the infil/exfil route, everyone basically makes a break for the bowl, leaving our position extremely vulnerable to encirclement, which is tactical suicide. Even paratroopers don't jump into a surrounded position without a planned exfil route.

Umm OK, play this game much? or are you a newbie that has no clue? Raids are done a certain way and they do not relate to real life. As I told you in game on team we were with the raid leader and he wanted it done one way and his way worked, you bucked your General Son

Yes, I am basically a noob. Started playing with a friend who just did farm missions, then he got banned for cheating, I learned basically nothing and I'm still flying by the seat of my pants. Saying I've got a LOT to learn is an understatement.

So I'm overthinking this whole thing, aren't I? Makes sense, I guess, as it is a very unrealistic game, probably why I play it. So I guess next time I'll put down FM 7-8 and SH 21-76 and just shoot randomly. Probably spent too much time doing the real deal, I think like that even for games. I'll make a note of that and apply it next time. Thanks for the pointers.

One more thing - do NOT call me 'son'.

I apolgize to the son, as I do not know you but as a 40 yr old vet, I do know military from others, and you did not follow the clear chain of command as stated on request channel, which I as many leaders use. Otherwise you may not have died as much. I was on my emp, a new test for me or I would have been next to you in the trenches. I do not fear debt but I follow orders.

Goodness gracious!

In my ever to be humble observation, this is a game and the goal is to have fun and take our minds off of the "stuff" happening in our lives!

RWZ Ship Raids are utter chaos except for the pylons. Same goes for Rikti raids in zones. All you do is gather together and hit what you can. If the lag doesn't mess you up, something will. But the benefits to all the chaos are: Vanguard Merits, getting some xp and having fun teaming (even with the villains ).

No boot camp required!
