    On the colonial side, this was one of the most impressive logistical operations ive ever seen. Within a day of road logi being cut off, we had established an entire water based supply chain to the island. It became so efficient that at one point the colonial troops appeared to be more well supplied, despite being the ones under siege!

    • @RobertLovesGames
      @RobertLovesGames  8 днів тому +16

      That's is what I felt after battling them for so long! I felt like they had more supplies than us even though we had constant logi trucks coming in.
      Well done to the Colonial logi players! Thanks for sharing that!

    I was there for the Colonial side, and you should know we were in dire straights from the combined logistics cut off from the trench line at land, and the 3 barges of wardens cutting off naval logistics route. You even put iron ships as a sea wall to prevent logistics to rush through. We were down to sub 100 shirts across all safe houses and the main building at some points. Our saving grace was some mad lads taking motorboats which could outrun the barges and deliver just a few crates at a time to get us to pull through.
    Also some of the 420th and other randoms eventually mustered a barge strike force that managed to take out the warden barges and resupply us again.
    So your encirclement and seige were just minutes away from causing us to collapse.
    Great battle either way!

    the trench line to block the colonial logi from resuppling Iron Junction was absolutely ingenious! It only costed some shovels, a bunch of men, and some time.
    and if you think about it, it's way more efficient than to just have some men stationed in the south blocking the supply routes, wasting valuable manpower in the siege.
    great job and thinking to the Wardens!

    Iron Junction was an interesting fight indeed. I supplied two iron ships of logi for it myself while also building like crazy with my regiment and other regiments in Reaver's in case blue gets the funny idea to invade.

    Collies are really the most obnoxious faction. I can't stand them. Just today when I was fighting in the deadlands. The collies had highground we couldn't get to, and they'd just sit up there doing annoying voices and shooting at us from a position where we couldn't hit them. After that we flank on the left and were hit by 3 collies, all of them shadow dancing and doing goblin laughs. There were 7 of us, but because they were shadow dancing we couldn't hit them. Form the Warden side, more often then not we're playing with good communication and seriousness. That's why I love the Wardens

    I waited for your Pirates to get tired before launching my own pirate barge, and we sunk a Warden barge carrying a GAC and took out a makeshift shipyard using a shore encampment. Amazing Siege, the Colonial Legion was calling it Junctiongrad. 🫡

      Nicely done! There was quite a bit of pirate action happening in that river up north! I got on last night for bit and just sat on the bridge picking partisans off for while ha.
      GGs!
