isupreme Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 you ride across the battlefield in your tank. there is death everywhere and you know what that means. But once the battle has begun fear subsides. Your thoughts hover around one thing and only one thing. Where is the Enemy Tank? Is it hiding behind that bush? Is it aiming at me? Who will shoot next?

isupreme Posted July 21, 2020 Author Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) I don't think there is any reason i can't share this material. It was included in the response to my being recommended to the group. I found it an interesting read overall. Full of lots of GoTeam! and enthusiasm for the battle. But in the end i think it is a bit subversive. After all. It calls to mind a credo that is Higher that either faction of GDI or Nod. Some Calling that says the action is more important that who wins. . .. That REP players see themselves more as playing in the conflict than swearing allegiance to a particular side. This ... joy? is that the word?.. this......... fascination with turning the hands of fate. It is somewhat bitter in mouth. I am not sure i can stomach it. Excerpt REP Guidelines Introductory. Spoiler When REP players are forced, due to circumstances to play the role of basic repair, it is accepted that death is probable. This is in opposition to the Responsibility one has as a Hotwire or a Technician to Protect Your Ass! Often in battle the simple act of a basic repair can sharpen the point of any advance or blunt an advancing menace. BUT Prepare Yourself To DIE!

isupreme Posted June 8, 2021 Author Share Posted June 8, 2021 Why does the world keep changing? I am born to fight. To DESTROY the enemy. I take my succor in domination. Retreat annoys me. My joy comes from crushing the Enemy and Holding the Field. There is nothing better. But sadly, so often lately, my world is confusion. No sooner than I am alive and on the field and punishing those that oppose me... but then!... Then there is a Change Map Vote. BAm! The world is ripped apart and I am forced to re invent my life again. Do other Tankers actually enjoy this for some reason? It makes no sense to me. When the battle begins... from that first moment... The possibilities awake. But when we start a match and then go straight to : Change map, -- Another world of possible fun collapses. Another world that I had committed to engaging in - dies. And along with it a little part of the tanker that is in me dies as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
