Everything is always XT's fault so join us on a night often dedicated to podding your local XT. We will run events based on the numbers present; however, often these events will be designed to unleash maximum punishment upon XT, come get even for all the hell XT has let loose upon you. Here are a few of the activities you may see.

Please ensure you bring at least 3 squadded players, Tags required, no hiders or mercs. CDT's are welcome!

Title: Squad Scrimmage Thursdays.
Mission: Gather your squad mates and assemble, evaluate the number of players and decide upon a game below. Match up the teams appropriately and engage in highly competitive team based squad action.
Objective: Highly competitive team work oriented games.
Who: 3 or more squad members sporting their Tags.
Where: Allegiance Squad server, No specific name.
When: Every Thursday Night, 9pm Eastern US. -5 GMT.

Details: Gather on the server of choice and based on player numbers and squad participation organize into either one of the games below or another that is more appropriate for the activities the squads want to partake in. Games do not have to be pure conquest. Coms can talk and if squads desire they can do alternate activities like basic tech vs bombers. Pure on back and forth bomber runs and defense, Miner offense and defense etc... While pure on conquest hell matches will be prominent, mix it up now and then. This is an open time where squads can practice with other squads. Use your time wisely.

Possible Games

1. - Multi Squad on Squad action.
Divvy up into even teams, pick teams by picking squads. Basically each side will get a commander. The commander will then pick a squad to join his side. Basically it’s a pick team style action, except your picking squads and not individuals. Shouldn’t take long. Both commanders can then look at the teams and ensure they are close to balanced, doesn’t have to be by HELO. Then mix in CDT’s to help even out, with or without regard to numbers imbalance. Commanders can then decide if they wish to add players throughout the game or keep it locked sides.

2. - World Game
If the numbers aren’t available for a good conquest game, probably 20 or less and the people available are looking for something different and challenging start a Squads vs. the World game. Basically you would go back to the main server, take over a side and have all squads join that side. Set imbalance to NA and make sure the world has at least double your numbers at launch.

3. - Uneven Odds
Basically one or two squads vs all other squads or one squad and CDT's vs. all others. Similar in format to world game but more controlled. Get the world side to have twice the numbers, roughly. The point is to make it very challenging if not impossible for the under gunned side. This will work great in instances where one squad shows up with good numbers and you have a lot of smaller numbers on the other squads with CDT’s.

4. - Scrimmage or Training
This is basically a squad game but not. Commanders can do things like hold adv tech. pit each side against each other on specific tasks, like Miner D and O, or Bomber runs etc... This will work great if you have relatively few squads available, but both have decent numbers, say 4 squads with 5 members each. Divide into a 10 on 10 and mix in CDT’s.

I cannot say I don't love this new attitude XT has taken, but it has me a little paranoid. XT has always been okay if maybe a little excentric (hey, aren't we all?) in my book.

It would be interesting to see exactly who pods who /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

good ideas though, it would hopefully give people something better to play than the recent pickup games. Kind of like the squadded server idea, but this would give mercs and new players 5 days a week to enjoy the usual Allegiance game.

You really don't know the same people I know on this team.

It's really interesting to hear these stereotypes and have them totally contradicted by the players I talk and fly with each and every day.

Take the time to get to know people instead of regergitating stereotypes and you might be pleasantly surprised.

This isn't a jab or meant to start a flame, just saying, make opinions of your own, if those are the conclusions you come to based on your experience, then right on! Otherwise you might just never know.

On another note, Hope to see alot there, should be interesting since its a Holiday, but next monday should be the real test.

There may be a Euro contingent that plans to organize this, but I'll let them chime in. However, there is nothing stopping anyone at any prime time from just doing it. Seriously anyone that can get a pug going can get a pug squad match going.
