[sRH] vs [HD$] | Alliance Conquest | Season 23 Round 4

Hey guys! Today is the fourth round of the 23rd Season of Alliance Conquest. We face [HD$] HARDTOKILL. It is a strong alliance and has seen nearly 40 participants per battle. This will be an interesting and tough battle. We won 2 of our last 3 matches. We knew that we would have to fight such a strong opponent due to our high rank. Hopefully, we can minimize the cost and reach 40,000 or 50,000 points.

Chapter 1: Tough Opponents

Once again, we aim to capture the tower of the mother. However, it will be difficult to hold it. We will need to capture the first points from all the buildings and trap their top player in one of them. That way, we can capture at least one of the two mines. Now that we have an action plan, I began to check the enemy roster for information.

Oh my God!!! Lol. We are not winning this. Robszy is incredibly strong. He is one of the top 25 players in the B League eliminations ranking. This match will be incredibly hard. We have faced a similar player [VHC] Benicio9 in the previous match, and it was a very costly victory.

However, we did win against [VHC]. But it was not cheap. All three of our matches have cost us a lot of healing. I have very little left. We will have to ration our supplies, or we will have none for the next two matches.

Chapter 2: Incredible Luck

We were unable to find any information on Robszy before the match. I assigned our best rally leaders for each troop type to the important buildings. His second accounts use cavalry. If his main account is the same, we will have a hard time. Only Nomad would be able to counter him. I hope that Robszy is an infantry player or something. That would be easier for us...

As the clock slowly ticked down to the start time, I could not help but look anxiously at the enemy camp. Something in me hopes that Robszy forgets to play and does not join the match. What a silly way to think... but it would be awesome, wouldn't it...?

30 minutes became 10 minutes. 10 minutes became 2 minutes. 2 minutes became 30 seconds. Wait a minute. Why are there so few?! I rushed to check the list of [HD$] players who have joined. There is no Robszy! In fact, only 19 players have joined from their side! What is going on?! What luck! I nearly started dancing with joy. We have been incredibly lucky.

Chapter 3: Underestimating the Enemy

Seeing that the enemy is weak, our racers have become complacent. The enemy's racer was very slow to capture the tower of the mother, and it still took us 11 seconds to send a march. What is happening? We cannot miss out on an easy win like this. If we keep underestimating the enemy, we will not make it to 80,000 points.

We have captured only half of the initial four buildings. This is bad. We are giving free points. Quickly, I began sending instructions to rally the tower of the mother. The defender, Mr X BB, is a cavalry player. VICTORIA does not appear to be too strong. A solo attack might win. We must not underestimate them simply because they have half the number of players as us.

Chapter 4: Control

I prepared to send single troop armies to spy on the stats of the player. Rudi decided to test out the defense and quickly launched a solo attack on the Tower of the Mother. The small defense army capitulated. Yes. Finally, we are back on track!

Let's go! Nomad's solo attack captured the Lannister Outpost. We now hold all four buildings. But we must be careful with the next three buildings. The ports and Casterly Rock will be important. A combined 600 points per minute. I began tagging rally leaders to prepare them. We must not make the same mistake twice.

Chapter 5: Ports and Casterly Rock

This time, both the rally leaders were quick to capture the ports. However, Tum92 arrived before graycon. So we had to swap quickly. The process was quick, and we had no trouble. Before [HD$] could react, the Targaryen port was filled with troops and graycon's powerful commanders.

Once again, I am the fastest player to reach Casterly Rock. We own all the buildings on the map. Finally, we are able to relax in a match and not worry about reaching 80,000 points. It feels nice, haha. We have been immensely lucky with today's match. However, I cannot help but feel that we deserved an easy match after the first three costly ones.

Chapter 6: [HD$] Fight Back

We were able to capture the stronghold as soon as it opened. We have learned our lesson. No more mistakes. I decided to message the top player from [HD$]. If we reach 80,000 points, we will let them collect the rest.

Hopefully, they make it to 20,000 before the timer runs out. However, this will depend on whether we get both the mines or not. In a show of courage, [HD$] refused to back down and captured the stronghold. Mr X BB's strong army destroyed the weak defenses.

I cannot help but feel a sense of respect. Despite heavy losses, they refuse to give up. We must honor them and give them a fight. When I see Mr X BB attacking, I refuse to back down from the challenge. We have been messaging each other for the past few minutes, and I can already feel our friendship growing.

Chapter 7: Mines

Swiftly, Marcellus captured the Targaryen mine. However, we missed the opportunity to take the second one in time. [HD$] successfully captured the second mine right under our noses. I quickly marked it for the alliance. We have to rally it immediately.

Even though the commander lineup is weak, all our rally leaders are locked into the other buildings. We have no strong rally leader to break the defense. Quickly, I messaged all the available players. We have to time the rallies. Eventually, one of them will break through. I asked the other members to attack player castles. We have to make sure that they do not send reinforcements in time.

Chapter 8: Success

Finally, after several minutes and many rallies, we are able to capture the mine. Quickly, everyone sent their cavalry. We have to have a strong defense in case they try to rally it. As I suspected, Mr X BB exchanged control of the Lannister stronghold and rushed to capture the mine.

Yes. Our defense held strong against their attacks. Finally, we are guaranteed 80,000 points. Slowly, I watched as our points increased from 65,000 to 80,000. With 7 minutes left on the clock, we achieved the milestone. Quickly, I sent messages in the alliance chat instructing them to leave their buildings.

We have to let [HD$] capture them. Their players slowly began capturing the empty buildings. I began sending messages to Mr X BB. It will be close. I watched as they did not send enough players to the mines. They will not make it!

Wait a minute! I realized something in the last few seconds. They have not attacked our castles for points! I hurriedly sent a message to tell them this. They can get more than 3000 points from us. I watched as the clock ticked down. Only 700 points left. But it is too late...

Chapter 9: The End

Finally, we have an easy victory. We recovered well from our initial mistakes. It is unfortunate that [HD$] lost out on milestone rewards by 700 points. I wish I had told them about attacking player castles beforehand.

We have our first three-match win streak. What a day. I hope our winning streak continues. Perhaps this will finally be the season where we reach the playoffs. Fingers crossed!
