It seems to be an angry thread indeed.
Simple truth about Harpoon is that they had a bad start, landing in four different oceans, and became early targets for PL and Juggernaut. I personally give them great credit for their resilience under fire and for relocating to 53. It would have been very easy for them to fold.
As for our pact with Harpoon, it wasn’t ended by us. I know that Harpoon were disappointed by a perceived lack of support from us, but we did what we could under the circumstances. It was a difficult time for us also, as we had Juggernaut, Polish Legion and 2 Freaky 2 Handle all allied against us. Ask rkh1 and Erik about their defensive cooperation during that phase of the server. Stirlo will remember the cities we tried to defend together. As it was, we were losing cities of our own and we had little to no defence available most of the time. We had to rely on our skills as snipers and roundabout where possible.
Later in the game it became obvious that Harpoon and SI would come into conflict in north 44/54 and that’s fine with us. This is a war game after all and sometimes you fight players you like and respect.
As for our relationship with Slackers – these guys only wanted to leave The Grim and play their own game. Many of our players and theirs have played together on previous servers and they have been true and loyal friends through some very testing times. Being the only allies we have that border the core, without their support I hesitate to think where we might be.
I agree with Stirlo that the world is far from over. There is plenty to fight for. Personally I think Helorus has been one of the most competitive servers I have ever played and I’m thankful to every player form the alliances that are here fighting it out for making it so.
May the best team win…
