Strike Up the Band! The Kaiser is Coming Home!!

Post by Kaiser_von_Nuben »

Well, after several months of extreme difficulty and worry, my clouds are starting to part. It looks like I will FINALLY have more uninterrupted time to hit ESO and play some clan games!

It might take a couple more weeks before I can play with regularity. But I have reason to believe that my free-time situation is IMPROVING! You have no idea how much I miss the clan games, fellas. It's like I've been away from my family for almost 6 months ;)

In advance of my return, I have fired up the old single-player a few times, just to make sure I remember how to spam uhlans, muskets and skirms. Believe it or not, I could do my old builds with my eyes closed, so I don't think I've slid down the learning curve. I'm sure all of you have advanced UP the curve, however, so bear with me if I occasionally forget to build a vil 8O

I'm also excited about the German changes in 1.2. I think the merc improvements could be killer on some maps, especially Mongolia where you have a gold mine AND a trade post. I learned this game in 2007 when Germans used mercs all the time. Now, it's like I'm coming back home! Achtung, Jaeger!!!!

So anyway, I just wanted to give you all this heads up. I look forwarding to meeting all the people who've joined the clan and been active on ESO since my departure last October. Let's have some fun! :D

great to hear kaiser!
you will still find me there and some other known faces. with a couple of more weeks, do you expect them to be like 2-3 weeks? or like 4-5. that would be a differece.
anyway good to see you hitting the road to ESO soon. :-)

Indeed he is. Thanks for asking, Adam!

And Aaryn, I'm thinking I'll be on at least a few times this weekend. ;) And I can still have 18 crossbows (or 8 xbow/10 pike) defending my base before 6:00 :-P

I almost feel choked up knowing I'll be seeing you all again soon :)

I have a feeling my vils will be butchered in raids... but I think I remember how to raid myself :twisted:
