Pennsylvania has fallen to the EBA and Delaware! Additional MBT's and Minefield in the Chesapeake Bay completed. Using production slots to build 5 more MBT's, and 4 F-18's (using 2 production slots). Doc, your submarine can return to the main battle group. No resistance was encountered in Pennsylvania. I would like to request a full transfer of my two Missile Cruisers over to your control as commander of the naval task force in exchange for 5,000 of your 25,000 infantry. I'm rather short handed in the Infantry department. Current EBA Territories: Florida (Doc) Penn. (Viva) Del (Viva). EBA Battlegroup: 1 Submarine, 2 Destroyers, 3 Missile Cruisers. Current Delaware Unit Totals: -6,000 Militia -4,000 Paratroopers -6 Coastal Defense Batteries -6 Guided Missile AA Batteries -1 B-2 Stealth Bomber -2 B-52 Bombers -2 AC-130 -2 C-130 Transports -2 Warthog Ground attack planes -12 F-22 Raptors. -10 Abrams MBT's -2 Missile Cruisers Currently flying my F-22's around Western Alliance Airspace in Virginia and over Kentucky, controlled by Nova.

Full intelligence on navigatable routes through mine fields has been given to Doctor. Any EBA Naval units, regardless of ownership, are clear to enter the bodies of water surrounding Delaware.

I have no idea how many of you guys no or care but info on the upcoming sequel to relics WW2 RTS Company of Heroes (its called Company of Heroes 2, imagine that) was leaked by a User on NeoGaf who got a PC gamer mag early. It will revolve around Soviet troops fighting the Germans on the Eastern Front. Heres hoping they pull no punches and paint both sides as totalitarian ******** which was exactly what they were (take that Communazis!). LINK!: http://www.escapistm...e-Eastern-Front

I'm not gonna venture an opinion on what happened here or how justified you are beacuse I dont know what happened. Could someone give us some exposition on what exactly happened here? I get that he was demoted and it might have had something to di with the Youtube account but is there anything more to it than that? I'm not going to say Im sorry your leaving beacuse honestly I don't know you. Would be curious to see what happened here though.

MBT and Minefield Production completed. Producing 5 More MBT's and placing Mines in the Chesapeake Bay. Once they are completed any and all Naval Battlegroups will have to spend a day removing the Minefields beacuse all Ocean access to Delaware is covered. Half way done siege of Pennsylvania. Will be in control by tommorrow at 10, placing a total of 3 states under the EBA (and 2 states under the Free Republic of Delaware).

Ive got a question though...have you been credit banned? Banned from matchmaking in general? If so, why? Secondly, what system would you implement that would be better? Also, I'm pretty sure other games do implement bans.

Yo Super could you update the OP when you get the chance so new people know what the deal is? Great idea for a thread btw.

Missile Cruisers currently in route to rendezvous with Docs Fleet off of Cuba. EBA battlegroup currently consists of. -2 Destroyers, 2 Missile Cruisers Personal Current troop totals are: -6,000 Militia -4,000 Paratroopers (currently taking over Pennsylvania) -6 Coastal Defense Batteries ranging up and down our coast. -6 Guided Missile AA Batteries -1 B-2 Stealth Bomber -2 B-52 Bombers -2 C-130 "Spectre" Gunships -2 C-130 "Hercules" Transport Planes (will use to transport Militia to other states/Alliances as well as deployment of Militia as Airborne Troops) -2 Thuderbolt II "Warthog" ground attack planes -Wing of 12 F-22 Raptors. -2 Missile Cruisers. Aircraft will join the EBA Battlegroup once Doc's Aircraft Carrier is complete and Pennsylvania has been pacified.

You know what I love Az? That the tag for this thread is "not inferior". Hahahahaha. Oh man...really funny joke. Australians. Not inferior. I was lollng my head off at the thought. Beacuse, as we all know, Australians are in fact :crazy: .

Ive been standing up for Black Ops II against rabid CoD haters but how do you figure those graphics beating Halo 4? If anything the graphics look worse than MW3. I don't mind particularly but the textures and lighting are not very advanced looking to my amatuer assessment...H4 looks like its pushing Halos engine as far as it can go on the other hand.

This seems like a really good idea actually.

I don't think Halo simply going back to simply what made it good in the past would allow it to reassert its dominance. Basic truth is 343 could make an excellent Halo game by completely going back to halos past, with graphical updates of course...but its not going to succeed financially beacuse unlike CoD, there is not a huge enough fan base for that kind of game right now. I don't believe Halo has to be dumbed down and I think you can make a good game with gamers tastes being what they are currently...but its a minefield and no mistake. Nontheless, in order to try to be successfull 343 has to push forwards rather than looking backwards.

I am and always will be an Elite Player...but I'm no fanatic neither. Plus I bet Elites will be back in some form or another...certainly seems like they are going to keep playing a big part in the universe.

Based on what I've read on IGN, part of the Campaign is a prolouge of sorts with the old gang from Black Ops 1 fighting the Soviets in Afghanistan in the 80's...the Helicopter seems to be a Russian Hind and the terrain looks Afghan-esque so I'd bet thats the Afghan segment we are seeing.

How do you figure that? Worst trailer you've ever seen? Based on what? Honestly when it came to being an interesting reveal trailer I found the CoD BOII trailer more watchable than the Halo 4 E3 teaser trailer. People just love to hate CoD (somewhat with good reason) but damn...

I just want the Chopper back. With regard to the other stuf,, Theres just no room for big drop ships in Halo's multiplayer for 3 reasons 1) They would take up allot of processing power, them being so huge and bulky 2) You would need to design maps custom made for large scale BattleField style clashes (not a bad idea actually) 3) Even in BtB games theres not enough players to justify a vehicle expressely for the purpose of carting people around Now...everyones been wanting to get Phantoms and Pelicans in game since H3 at least...I would bet if 343 makes a next Gen halo with a bigger max player count you have a pretty decent shot. I'm hoping the next gen halos push up and beyond 24 on 24...having epic BtB playlists and keeping the old classic small scale skirmish playlists too...then maybe we can get a really expansive selection of Vehicles. Who knows? maybe someday they'll be able to put a Scarab in Multiplayer! PS. 343 has hinted at a large driveable vehicle larger than the Cyclops II in Warhouse. No way its a Scarab if its Multiplayer, but hopefully its something big and nasty.

The Rail Gun seems like the kinda thing which they would bring in to replace the Splazer...honestly, Ive always felt like the Splazer was an OP weapon, kinda dopy looking too...so if they canned it and replaced it with a Rail Gun that wasnt quite instant death for me and my beloved Banshee, I'd be happy.

Requesting join to the EBA Doc. If you happen to get Main Battle Tanks, wanna trade for some of my Delaware Guerilla fighters? Industrial capacity has been restored ahead of schedule. Beginning construction of Naval Minefields in the Delaware Bay, will be complete tomorrow. Minefields will require a turn to clear for Naval Battle groups OR encure heavy casualties to Sea-going units. Using my other recruitment spot to construct 5 MBT's. Are we allowed to raise additional infantry forces with our recruitment slots? Aerial bombardment has continued in Pennsylvania. No sign of organized resistance from Undeads forces. Siege will begin at 10:00.

Haters gonna hate...I do think the graphics look kinda stale but the concept is interesting. Black Ops was better than MW2 thats for sure. People just automatically want to gloat beacuse its COD...then again, if Black Ops II has to fail so Halo 4 can succeed that would be a cost I'm willing to pay. Halo needs to beat COD on the Xbox.

Just watched the reveal trailer. I'm not a COD fan, definitely prefer BF's multiplayer BUT the Black Ops Campaign was one of my favorite campaigns of recent years. No pretentious anti American "OMG IT WAS ACTUALLY THE AMERICANS FAULT" plot twist...a few interesting characters, assassinating Fidel Castro...always good. I'm cautiously optimistic after seeing the second black ops trailer. Unlike MW3 I will almost certainly buy this one. Seems like a near future setting is a perfect chance for them to change up the formula...just hope the changes aren't only skin deep.

If you like grand strategy, you can't beat the total war games.

Current Troop totals are the same as last +1 Cruiser. Repairing my industry, should take two days. I am declaring War on Undead in Pennsylvania. Am dropping in 4000 Paratroopers and throwing all my Air units into a bombing campaign...will begin siege tomorrow at 10:00 if no resistance is met, putting Pennsylvania under the Delaware flag at 10:00 Friday. The oil fields in West Penn should restore my Fuel to full capacity.

Haha, you have it sir!
