1. Since i started En.72 you have been pretty much on the front lines and have earned apt of respect inside OL and other alliances, to what do you attribute your success?
Thank you Jamo for those sentiments. My "success" I would have to say is derived from two things. One is aligned with our creed, which goes "If it isn't blue or green, it's red." The offensive nature of ZT has shaped they way I play the game, and I love it. The second is most certainly the spirit of those who are in this great alliance with me. I would not be here still if it weren't for them.
. You and Moshey2, any mutual respect there or is it as i think a constant war with no love lost?
I'd like to think that we keep each other on our toes. In all honesty, I do respect him. He has proven to be a resilient and resourceful opponent. We have never been on the same side of this server, but from the very beginning we've been sharing O45. It does make me laugh however, that in the beginning he was in the largest MRA on this server - some of you may remember TFA?? That was over a year ago now... He's jumped around between alliances more than many other long-time players I know, but he's survived, so that counts for something. What's ironic is that now he's in a very small, powerful alliance, which is the exact opposite of where he started.
I wish him the best of luck!
3. Who do you rate most inside ZT as attackers, defenders and all rounders ?name 3 players and why you rate them.
Well, the numbers don't lie -
Gondriga, FFFrank, Spaekhugger and Shanavoher are ferocious warriors.
Our best defenders are 2dukesy2, our leader Jonny, matholwch and FFFrank.
Then some other notable players in my opinion are Sir Dorn, Carneodovadus, Principe Salvatore (who drops DLU nukes like no one's business), and last but not least, the sly Enigmatic Fox.
4. Outside of ZT who do you respect as players and why?
I know it's a bit of a cop-out because they used to be in ZT, but lorimmn, right hand of doom, and TNchicklet have always had my back no matter which alliance they're in. Aside from that, it's hard not to mention the infamous GPig. He's a devastating opponent, but a good guy.
5. What has been your favourite op or conquest/achievement since you started?
It was a grand time for the alliance. We set an outrageous goal to take 150 cities in 72 hours. Our targets were:
The Terran Empire, WRECKLESS Inc, The Immortals, Macedonian Phalanx, and Knights Templar.
When all was said and done, we had taken 87 cities from those 5 alliances. To this day, I doubt such a thing has ever been done by any other alliance. Like I said earlier, the numbers don't lie - ZT is still the number 1 attacking alliance!
6. since the near dissolving of zt how has the alliance regrouped and reformed to get back in the fight so well?
This was a dark time for the alliance, but due to the tenacity of a few select members who refused to give in and sell out, we were able to hold down the fort to provide a place for our players to come back to. The world was undergoing tectonic shifts in power and we knew that if we could just hold on, we'd make it through to the other side - and here we are!
