It started with 70 Good Guys in KC. Good Guys had the position/ numbers advantage, along with every one of their 60 alts camped out fully buffed and ready to go. Their casters are on the superblock, and it's a nearly untouchable rez station.
60 Empire zone in. They move to the right moat. They clear out the right CY from where people swim to Verix, and move the entire raid into LCY and up onto the walls. VS is up, so it threatens Good Guys' ability to fight their fight. They're forced to move forward and charge Empire, while still trying to retain the superblock rez station.
The battle ensues for 2 hours, with both sides taking control of the zone back and forth all night long. It's unclear who will seize control and ultimately win the encounter. Trains are coming from both guilds. The trains instantly go haywire when healers heal people who have agro on them. It's mayhem, and the only true and best determinant for who gets what raid mob.
130 people (probably 300 unique toons altogether) fighting for 2 hours straight in KC and DL. Empire eventually takes control, buffs, and takes VS.
Terrible time to fight - 12AM to 2AM PST, but it was an excellent representation of what Red is supposed to be/ what most of us hope to retain/ foster in the future.
Come on over. Be good pals.
