Raiding Update

Postby Jakker » Sat Feb 11, 2012 12:05 pm

Attention!

Last night during the last major raid, The Black Hawks took part in the first ever Battle of the Hawks where we divided into two teams and tag raided different targets at times, while combining in joint raids for others. There were some shaky moments, ultimately it turned out to be great fun. The targets captured included:

Outer Heaven Took down a delegate in power for 168 days with 4 Fenda Kills in the process

The Connection of the World Took down a delegate in power for 344 days

The Realm of Dauntsians Took down a delegate in power for 91 days with 3 Fenda Kills in the process

Scratch Took down a delegate in power for 74 days with 1 Fenda Kills in the process

The Library Took down a delegate in power for 81 days with 2 Fenda Kills in the process

Coalition of Leftist Comrades Took down a delegate in power for 410 days with 2 Fenda Kills in the process

Simtropolis Took down a delegate in power for 465 days with 2 Fenda Kills in the process

Troops of The Black Hawks involved include:

Jakker
Spartzerium
Tramiar
Crushing Our Enemies
Saphirasia
Hangeria
The Gray Land

Also involved in the fun were troops from The Black Riders and The New Inquisition. We couldn’t have done it without all of their help.

The Black Riders involved included:

Feuer Ritter
A Million Voices
Captain Apollo V
The Governers Land
The Republic of The Republic of

The New Inquisition Troops involved included:

Afgambistan
British Whiskum


The Black Hawks are now currently holding Outer Heaven with support by The New Inquisition and Europeia and The Library with support by The New Inquisition, The Land of Kings and Emperors, and by The Black Riders.

A short time ago, TBH held off an impressive liberation attempt of The Library by the combined forces of UDL and FRA. They were able to come up with a lot of updaters for this particular mission, but not enough to stop The Black Hawks!

Any invader forces who would like to come read a book or two with us are invited! Defenders, read yours in another region. This one is ours until nation restoration is restored!


Shoutout to Oliver the Mediocre! I totally expected to wake up in TRR!

The Black Hawks
Image
Council of the Hawks:
Commander in Chief: Commander Red Back
Head of Military/Mom: General Tramiar
Field Marshal: Major Jakker
Head of Foreign Affairs: Major Rawr
Chief Military Advisor: General Crushing Our Enemies
Military Advisor: General Halcones
Military Advisor: General Sorenity2
Head of Intelligence: An Obvious Spy



We're back with another update for you! This wasn't an easy month for raiding due to the server switch and the resulting update scramble, but TBH charged on!

Raids!
The Black Hawks have hit NationStates hard this month. Victims include:

New Zealand
Outer Heaven
The Library
Catholic (with DEN)

Tags:
The Atlantic Isles
Baltic States Alliance
Tiberiam
Corellia
Slavija
Lake ilopango
Scratch
The Connection of the World
Coalition of Leftist Comrades
Simtropolis
The Realm Of The Dauntsians
Loosely Held Confederation

We were also proud to have played backup roles in raids by other organizations, such as TBR's raid on Region of Sion.


Battle of the Hawks!
TBH tried something new this month. We staged a team competition between two of our best planners, Jakker and Spartz. Each leader took a team of updaters on a tagging run and competed to see which team got the most successful tags. The Black Riders and The New Inquisition were generous enough to provide troops for this competition.

When all was said and done, the score was 5-2 with Jakker as the winner. He better watch his back though, because Spartz will likely try to come back with a vengeance next time!


Promotions
We hope you will join us in congratulating the following troops on their promotions this month:
Promoted from Private to Private First Class:
South Brittania and Hangeria!
Promoted from Private First Class to Corporal:
Mall and Saphirasia!
Promoted from Corporal to Sergeant:
Spartz!
Promoted from Lieutenant to Major:
Rawr!


Spy catches a spy!
After his attempt to join TBH was denied because we wouldn't let him multy, Talvand, delegate of North Pacific, decided to declare war on TBH. In what we can only assume was a part of this silly attempt at war, Talvand once more tried to join TBH. This time he used a different name and a fishy story. While members of council were trying to get a straight story out of this suspicious newcomer, Spy realized that a part of his story matched the story originally given to us by Talvand.
Spy has received a much deserved promotion to Head of Intelligence. He is trustworthy, right? ;)


Everything you (n)ever wanted to know about Tramiar!
Ready for your second lesson?

Tramiar likes older guys
Briana says:
i really like this guy
Rawr says:
Too bad you just missed Valentine's day! :P
Briana says:
i think he's a little old for me :P

Tramiar can't quit Facebook
Briana says:
I'm afraid of facebook cause i might accidentally like something.
----- later -----
Briana says:
i go on facebook to find out what high school girl is having a baby this week.

Tramiar is a master of the obvious
Briana says:
people are idiots

Tramiar is ready for children
Briana says:
Im gonna have a kid
Rawr says:
That's what happens when good girls go to frat parties!
Briana says:
they have kids?

Tramiar... Um.. Yeah
Rawr says:
perv
Briana says:
I'm sittin here a pullin, but there ain't nothin comin out
Rawr says:
diiiirty



This was a relatively quiet month for the raider world, but the ones to follow are sure to be exciting!
As always, we will continue to demonstrate our dominance over founderless regions while bringing defenders to their knees. As believers in Raider Unity, we look forward to the opportunity to help you do the same. Contact General Tramiar if you would like a joint op.

Due to the server kerfuffle no doubt. How much did that affect/effect your usually very impressive timing?

I would but there may be a conflict of interest :P

Edit: It'd be rude of me not to say good update, I think. :]

Hey, I see that Loosely Held Confederation was refounded? You guys were in control, but I don't see an embassy with TBH.

Also, isn't Nixonland one of your "territories"? It seems that TBH Commander has rejected a request for an embassy with Nixonland, but again, I thought you always create embassies with regions that you control.

What's going on, guys? :eyebrow:

I think someone (I know at least the UDL were watching LHC for a refound) may have beaten them to it.

I wouldn't quote me on that, though. :P

Oh, that makes sense. So I assume that you all moved out of Nixonland while it was locked, allowing it to CTE naturally?

Atheist Empire was successfully raided by The Black Hawks last update, with assistance from The Black Riders and The New Inquisition.

These TBH troops were involved:
Mallorea
Jakker
Tramiar
Spartzerium

One defender was also banned, following an invader who moved/endorsed early. However, he left before update, letting us take the region 15-14.

Congrats all!

You guys need to combine threads. How about The Black Hawk Riders or The Hawks on black horses.
