Invasion Battle Plan

[Tuefenhandel]

Got to try it again last night on a quiet server, with a full crew. Not nearly as many other pirates around. Did find out that people can still TP to you once the invasion begins (wasn't too sure about that previously).

Lag was still bad, but - it had been an issue for me all night. Using the guide from POTCO I reset my graphics to low and unfortunately it felt like the performance was worse.

Having only a limited number of pirates was brutal. We 'won' in the end, but lost all six barricades (and, the rep bonuses).

Still think that a fairly large guild that can round up five or six full crew's will be the ideal arrangement to take on an invasion.

Also found that staff with flame was very useful. Aligned myself along the front of a barricade at one end and shot the flame along the face of the barricade. Would hit four or five (or more) targets that were stopping to assail the barricade. Lots of kills, good rep.

Came up behind a group attacking the middle barricade on the right side of PR and took out a clump with a satchel charge - and then pistol for the leftovers. Kept having to remind myself to use the correct shot for stumps (as opposed to all the undead).

This is definitely the most fun I have had since they came out with privateering.
