Victory Status on the different servers.

You do realize if you save them up you can get better stuff.

Congrats to Anitgua's Spanish on first map victory.

Campeche is Spanish, dunno what your server is like but on Roberts there are twice as many British as Spanish, so Bartica is a harder target. As for exploits, not a bit of it. It was a hand in/NPC grind en masse (an opposed one to boot) to get to the first red zone, then it was an absolutely biblical massacre, dozens of player ships slaughtered. I very much doubt any other nation has done anything like as audacious or successful.

Bartica went down to the Spanish in a similar fashion on Antigua. Turn ins to 5K, slaughter noobs to 6K, 3 simultanious 6v6's with the British Heavier Ships (Spain 14 - British 1) and the port flipped. The whole operation was over in 45 minutes.

Something close on Roberts, but the slaughter was so complete that France was at 10k conquest before the hour was up.

Yes. We did it before you.. and so effectively it broke the spirit of a nation. In hindsight, I think given the reaction we would have chosen a different target.
