[Genesis] Siege War 7.30.08

Posted in: 07-31-2008           by: Acacia

Lately, there has been a sense of hopelessness in the Dynasty camp when it came to winning siege wars. With the move of some of Dynasty’s top players to Empire many felt the scale of balance tip towards the Empire camp. This week, the scales reversed and tipped towards Dynasty’s favor likely due to the absence of several prominent Empire characters on the Sky City Battlefield.

Though the Dynasty turn-out was much smaller than wars past, the presence of high level characters like thra, Cosmic, and Raff made breaking through the fences child’s play. Though Empire put up a good fight, they were no match for the speed and power Dynasty brought. At the end of the night, Dynasty had won 3 rounds.

Questions still linger in the minds of players from both camps about the fairness of the siege war. If it only takes a few high level characters to tip the scales to one side, why should anyone else show up? Since the siege war is a time trial, is it geared towards one class? I strongly encourage anyone who has any ideas on how to make siege war more fun to post them on the MWO Forums.
