Comeback after lost Keep - Order made it first on 26.01. - 27.01.

[Glorian]

Well in T3 we didn't have a Victory point system.
So yesterday was the first time counterlock with the new system.

I also don't know when exactly took keep. But they took it as some have stated here and in our voicechat.

For the record:Destro was hitting Lord Room when the huge crashes happened. That's the main reason why Order wipe Destro. There was a lot of great fight before we destroyed inner door. Roaming, fighting for supplies, raming the door. And then Lord Room...No thanks.

And we do not crash?

"Crash was on your side. Yes it was"

I needed to add something about crashes because it was big factor in this fight. And nothing about it in initial post. Without it it was incomplete chronicles of events.
If you read carefully my post you will notice that actually I enjoyed most of this fight (except pushing Lord room). Especially I enjoyed how Bitterstone navigate through zone with this small flying ... thing on their back. When you sneak from warcamp glued to the mountains when great Destro zerg stand on Hardwater... man that was hilarious

Yesterday saw some of the fiercest battles in Kadrin Valley.

And Destro was capable of taking the Order Keep.
From there it is usually only a question of time till the Zone lock comes after taking 3 of the 4 BOs.

But not yesterday!

Order hold enough BOs to stall the Zone lock and even took the Keep back after the Destro lord was up.
Then around 8pm Altdorftime Invasion, Beavers and the Bittertone Thunderers roamed the Realm and everything was ready for Order to take the Destro keep. But alas, it was too late. In the East European Timezones it was quite late, so Invasion and Beavers had to call the attack off.

Destro came back and captured in a short order the BOs and locked Order in its warcamp.
Order Moral was at an downpoint and it looked like Destro would win the day. But with Osri and the Radiant Knights a new power emerged and we made it into the keep which was then attacked by Destro. As I said Order coordination was at an downpoint at this moment, so anything like a back and forth on the BOs was not feasable at that time.

Two times we defended the Keep and then after the doors came up we took the fight again to the BOs. AAO was 120%.
But with each additional BO taken it dropped 10%.
Until Order was finally at the keep and sieging it. Outer went down fast and when we were at inner Destro reinforcements came in from the Warcamp. But the Bitterstone Thunderers blocked the postern door and let none pass. When 12 Destros entered the Keep through postern the Lord was already dead.

But fighting didn't ceased after this. On the contrary, Destro was capable of taking BOs back and forth until finally before their last push on Gromril Junction the Zone was finally logged.

That was one hell of an evening and for some of us a whole day.
So as far as we know this is the first time a Zonelock was adverted after loosing your keep and turning it into a Zonelock on your side.

And Order made it first.

Actually Destro did it first at Caledor but due to false vp calculation system, Druin reseted the whole campaign.
Btw which time actually that happened ? Only thing i remember from yesterday is after 18:00 GMT:

-Order was roaming with 2-3 warbands at the same time
-Order zerged us a couple of times.
-I rallied to whole destro.
-We zerged order couple of times.
-Even with similiar numbers, order refuse to come outside of the keep.
-Destro pugs started a keep siege.
-We just roamed around warcamp-hf-n postern like 1 hour.
-After inner is down, we just stay at bottom floor and garden.
-Due to boredom of turtle gamestyle we log off and go to sleep.
-After 40 mins later, i noticed order took KV.

Ah yes, the sneak on the mountain trail.
We had to tell everyone to use no macros for 2 minutes. So no "Dwarfs of Ekrund!" while at that sneak attack.

Order sitting in keep was sadly the only thing that could be coordinated.

We had two half WBs and a lot of fearfull pugs. Not much else you can do then. Also we had our pipe break shortly before you attacked.

This is the truth yo. Check the video Lesti uploaded, you'll see 3 groups with 1 healer each, one of them keeps crashing too. Very subpar setup; this is the reason. Done told Norkalli in tells too as it happened, but you folks refuse to listen Tactical retreat if you're outnumbered and/or scared of Haojun; once we prove to everyone that she bleeds, then we instill courage in their hearts.

Btw which time actually that happened ?

January 26th:
Around 12.30 CET: Order loses keep in KV, preparing to move to next zone.
Around 14.00 CET: Commissarg and his WB manages to get 40% and keep is back up.
14.00 - 17.30 CET: Massive Order attempts at locking this down; good hands on deck in destro keep, attempts foiled.
19.00 - 20.00 CET: Guild events start. There was a 8-12man sized group consisting of pure WE's prowling our walls, for one thing.
The rest is history. Underpowered and unorganized history

It was the Ladies Night!!!! And we prowled the wall only once.
We laughed so hard on TS guys, with Kool and the Gang on loop.
