Nice thread
Travis.
(
Grinds me to say that, lol.)
Get ready for an epic read, lol.
First experiences...
I started playing TW on w39.net in the June of 2009.
I stayed there for 11 weeks, before my tribe -
SANE, who i Founded and was Duke of, were ruined by another tribe 10 times our size. (
Lowkey)
I took what was left of that tribe and started
Virtus.
We left soon after...
UK2 Start up...
I come here: 07th September 2009.
Started as the Duke/Founder of a small pre-made called
Virtus.
We had an epic line up, mostly unknown/under alias to UK2, easily a match for likes of
Shots,
Smack! and
PoR.
Some of the
very best players playing TW today come with me here,
Petar,
Elise,
Lisa and
Tan to name a few.
I also brought with me, the last remaining of my tribe, from w39, which was destroyed by a tribe called -
Lowkey, a tribe with stong links to
TEAM's leadership,
which i never knew at the time, lol.
PeteTurner. - Now enjoying a new start in
L.I.
Dazhama. - Quit March...
NornIron. - Quit December...
4r7hur. - Quit October...
And my good friend/co-player
Marc (Otti Opao.)
We come here, full of hope and promise, fresh off the back of an ass-kicking and
looking for a new start.
I started badly as usual, lost my first farm to a spike, which i blamed on
Juke Airlines, at that time he was playing as the account
Nemesis666, right in my 2x2, lol.
Still do. :icon_razz:
We had an epic early battle, dodging and trying to clear and farm each other, and i was lucky to catch him with a 500ms back time, and took him out.
Having seen his skill, i offered him and a few of his tribe a place in
Virtus.
He joined, and 2 weeks later when
Petar quit to start the tribe
Rumble along side
Pervis and co, on UK3 -
Nemesis666 took over the
Juke Airlines account...
A while after he become my most trusted Baron, moving up to co-Duke after our split from
TEAM...
We had a few early wars and had the first of the several '
Noob Alliances' try to take us on...
They all failed.
Strike days...
I was approached by a tribe called
Strike and their Duke -
Skarloc, who asked us about the possibility of an equal merger, but myself staying as the only Duke and their leaders becoming Barons and a while after we did merge to secure K46.
Then we had a few scuffles with
TEAM in K36/K35 and i manged to snipe a noble train for one of my members sent by a player called -
Anakanampucha.
My first ever snipe. :icon_biggrin: - It was successful also.
Team days...
Things after that quieted down a bit, with us still growing fast in points and ODA, maybe the fastest ODA growth on UK2 at that time.
I was contacted by the leaders of
TEAM about a possible merger, with myself becoming co-Duke along with
DeAdMaX.
We merged into them, for reasons i still wont divulge, but it was for a valid reason.
We entered the
first '
World War', against
Enzyme and
Smack!
Alot happened, while i was
TEAM's co-Duke, along with
DeAdMaX... I had my nose severely pushed out of joint with several arguements with
DarthCalais,
P.Chan and
Traviscoob's co-player -
Scooby and when i left them, i actually
deleted my account.
I was gutted... I put a HUGE amount of work in...
I tried my absolute best to make us the best tribe...
Juke Airlines, kept me here, kept me going.
Chess days...
A while after that, I started speaking to
Chess.
Originally speaking to
StellaPolaris, then being directed to their other Duke -
Khan the Master.
Myself and my new co-Duke -
Juke Airlines, got on like a house on fire with
Khan the Master.
Having regular laughs in the Skype.
We started taking out the various tribes in and around our K, which was K46, and started pushing into K36.
It was a while later, approached by a
VERY good player called
Woundweaver, she asked me to help her save her tribe -
Chess...
Khan the Master was close to quitting, due to RL strains and needed help, with a commited player taking over the leadership of his tribe.
This resulted in the merger between
Virtus and
Chess.
I become the Duke of the worlds most powerful tribe...
Various wars and Ops followed, with us gaining more and more villages/ODA and ground.
Including our famous hit on
M8s, who we made disband after 1 expertly timed attack.
KIA/Levian days...
Due to our position, we started speaking to a tribe called
KIA.
They also eventually merged with us, but left several weeks after, after a row between myself and
Easterlights. - (
Their old Duke.)
They left and started the tribe -
Levian.
We started attacking
TWM, while this was going on and i myself threw all i had into that Op...
I took 11 villages myself in a few seconds, which was a massive gamble and i also sniped several trains...
I nearly lost a village, but got a nice snipe that was
22ms before the attacking nobles landed in my village, lol. --->
Lucky eh? :icon_cool:
We was declared on and attacked by
G.F, after they agreed to us recruiting 4 ex-
RAC players...
They hit us hard, but for the most part, were poorly coordinated and they concentrated on our mostly inactive and smallest members, with our bigger better, more active members still waiting to recieve a single attack. :icon_rolleyes:
Inactivity is hitting us hard atm, as most other top tribes, but we're bouncing back and in the middle of a fight back against
G.F.
Watch this space.
Thats about it really, lol.
I hope it wasn't too long, but its kinda good to get stuff off your chest every now and then.
I know its just as much about
Virtus on UK2, then myself, but i cant really talk about my own stuff, without mentioning
Virtus, lol.
