    Congratz to PHLX on NA32. The anti comforting contingent weren't against changes for HC's on Age 2, but all others should've been left alone

    Question is, I wonder how long PHLX will keep Atlantis .

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    Phnx will prob keep atlantis forever, as protecting atlantis has kept people playing and not to let friends down. This is the incentive many needed to leave the game, NA32 was getting to be dead server. Now that many of the top players have retired today, wonders what will happen.
    HHx60 12x2 14x7 16x1 18x1
    4x15 set

    Ouch not much of a war game if there isn't much competition left. Kinda gives PHNX an empty victory then.

    i wouldnt call misnomer a top player, many quit because of his habit of taking hcs in states with his accounts and holding them indefinitely with warehouses while drafting all around him. him with atlantis was an awful choice. probably contributed heavily to a lot of players simply leaving.

    as for phnx, i doubt theyll lose it, ghost is a shadow of the alliance it was, with all but 2/3 of the originals remaining, and theyre largely inactive

    I will post a blow by blow a bit later when I have recharged so people can see how it went down.

    But I would like to comment on the "top players" leaving the server.

    One of the most difficult aspects of the game is leading an alliance. This is something that can not be scripted, coded, or shortcut. It it a tremendously difficult job, both in the face of adversity and often success. Motivating your players, keeping them involved, recruiting new ones, and negotiating the diplomacy of the server is by far the most challenging aspect of the game - and in my opinion it is this human element of the game that make Evony by far one of the best games going.

    Anyone willing to step up into a leadership role should be commended for making the effort.

    That compliment being paid - the "top players" are still on the server. They are the ones who didn't give up. This victory was 90% made by breaking the morale of the player in Atlantis, and the morale of his team. It was a failure of leadership instead of a failure in game mechanics.

    I understand that one or more of the "retired" players dismissed accounts with HH, 15 sets and over 40 million archers with plenty of mech. I submit a truly "top player" might offer a different response when he or she suffers a setback. A counterattack? Guerilla warfare? economic warfare? Or even going out in a blaze of glory with all guns firing.

    The servers are what the players make them. My path has been starting in Nemesis which grew to 9 branches in the early and mid game, then became too unwieldy to manage. We were willing to reorganize into Bob with a crack team of heavy hitters and some promising up and comers. GreenGiant and the Madness crew joined with us shortly thereafter (after some aggressive negotiation I recall - but really its ok we are the best of pals now). Bob, with the help of RR and PHNX held of the great Nemesis/Ghost/FightClub/Fallen/Hardride Revenge War of Thanksgiving 2011 and the battle lines for the server were drawn.

    Finally When it was time to chill a bit the leadership and actives of BOB merged into PHNX - whose host BQ has shown consistent and stable leadership since the get go. It is the willingness of our core group to reinvent ourselves that will allow us to reinvent the server. Every move I have made on this server is to allow the largest group of people I play with to find fun how they want to play the game, to invent possibilities, and sometime just to kick some heinie.

    I would also just like to say again that i think the comforting change is a good one, if anything i think the cap limit could be raised higher than 10 million.

    ****WARNING****
    Time to defend your cities with troops and stop hiding behind a comfort button.
    ^ yeah what Gamble said

    Doubt their team will loose it anytime soon the enemy lost quality leadership long ago.......but with the new change it is definitely possible.

    I say the comforting change is a step in the right direction, I argue facts and real ongoing situations of the matter...
    You dream up ideas that don't exist and STILL blame botters and STILL feel it's fair to have something forever in a war game...
