    So page 13 of the Phase 2 document notes: "Meanwhile, it seems that the EI’s forces could accomplish their goal of fully evacuating their local cell if the joint forces of O-12, ALEPH, Ariadna and Haqqislam fail to hold their respective positions."

    Which I think works pretty well. It gives the Combined Army a clear goal to 'win' the campaign as well as giving human factions clear criteria for cooperation and what's 'safe' for internecine squabbling. Additionally, having four objectives and only having to hold one of them is a pretty great situation for CA, as they can pick and choose what to go for, while not being a complete blindside to human players. There's the remaining question of how easily CA high command can focus fire, but I don't view that as an insurmountable issue.

    Also, uh.

    The Warning has been Delivered for all the other human commanders out there.

    Let's not get the Human Edge killed, yeah?

    Yeah, meanwhile it forces the very heated conflict between Ariadna and Haqqislam, as well as O-12 and Tohaa to an abrupt end!
    But I enjoyed clubbering you guys

    Nah. It merely proves the whole campaign's "end result" was written well in advance, and CB doesn't bother with noticing what is actually going on in the campaign.

    We could leave it all to Combined, and the Phase 2 would still look the same.

    It will be interesting to see if Ariadna comes full force against Haqqislam, and if the Combined Army take advantage of it...

    I won't be so sure about that, given the intro line for the new Xaraks zone.

    Let's say I'm pretty convinced, as:
    1. The Phase 2 narrative seems like it doesn't take whatever we did in Phase 1 into account,
    2. Previous two campaigns I've been following had exactly the same feel.
    Though I'd love to be wrong here!

    But I painted my face blue and everything. Made a whole video and screamed at my phone.



    Could have warned the HQs if the mods wanted us to be aware of the stakes.

    It will look like AEC trying to smuggle T2 ammo, antipodes, mines, alcohol through Haqq customs.

    Which again would result in the EI breaking through, causing us all to lose.

    And it's can't be understood. Why Ariadna's control of Customs would let CA escape?

    Because it explicitly says: If we cannot control our locations (read: our locations at the moment, and with we, it means the faction now holding it), the EI escapes!

    As i stated in the IC thread, you already threw the rock, now hidding the hand wont change nothing xD Just think about Tohaa and Haqquislam already did a good trouble in the batteries, so it wont hurt much if we go and do the same at the hangar :p No time for peace now!

    Alright, so Ariadna makes the HS lose, seems like Wotan 2.0. But that was expected.

    It such case CA already wins. Plan B with exploding this rock into crushed stone looks better and better.

    Oh, of course, we did treason again? Please, you knew we were going to attack you since you took the batteries. And, if we secure your base, how is the CA going to win? Its secured anyway by a human sphere faction. You dont know what does it means for CB, so you are not going to stop our play because of "i guess x means y".

    Guys, guys. Leave IC banter for the IC threads, okay?

    This one is OOC.
