Recent assault on a cyborg base.
Posted: Thu Mar 20, 2003 4:06 pmLast weekend I was sitting in West Athens when a clan mercanary ((GM or ARK)) marched in from the direction of the Grid. I made a comment wondering if he was another patrolling guard, to which he replied he was in fact on a mission.
He then announced there was to be an joint-faction assault on a borg base in Wailing Wastes, and that he was organising the Clans. Omnis were also being gathered and all would amass outside the base.
I talked with him a little on the matter, before he started shout out for people to assist ((there was also a zone notice)) and many flocked for information.
I decided to help stop the cyborg threat, and in the absence of our president and other advisors, took it upon myself to organise a group of RKFFers.
Soon it was time to move out. Some took the whompahs. Most followed the mercanary west from WA to the zone border. Alas, something foul was at work there. ((As you can imagine, in typical GM event style, a mass attempt to zone resulted in huge server problems. No one could zone into Athens Shire and eventually the server was rebooted)).
I and a couple from our team became incapacitated, but others managed to arrive at the location in Wailing Wastes. Some reports came through across guild-channel of heavy fighting, but there wasn't much information. We also heard of a borg leader swearing vengence against West Athens!
I'm surprised there as been almost no talk of this assault since! Does anyone have any more to tell? I don't think we should be so placid if there is such an imminent threat!
