Battle Chronicles
Sher Singh
Fellow soldiers,let me share you some past experience of myself with you. There are no screenshots,since this is purely historical.
Skipping from how I entered this game,how I managed to go-through the basics,the mentors ayush and deadley ,let's skip to main part.
It all began when I had just done my q2 training ground to max. Life was easy,and I began to earn 19 gold monthly only by training. XP was rare,so I forbid working in companies.
I had 14k strength then,when I saw that 50k strength was the highest in d1 ,and one could easily win lots of gold from BH by just 5 kills and 1 GF . Minimum q7 weapons and xp was burnt and life was so easy. I tried some BH with my low strength and with very hard luck and hours of scouting I managed to get 4 BH . I thought I could go on like this,but then my BH got sniped 2 times and I had to quit fighting . It was fair,since my strength was extremely low,and one needed an average 30k strength to be a tank.
Then after months of 2-click and managing to get all my training grounds maxed,I thought it worthwhile to fight again since I was 30k strength then ( seemed enough to start hunting now. ) I had taken a loan of 60g to upgrade my TG,so had to return that too ( which I am unable to do until now)
I began with same routine of myself. Scouted possible BH for hours,fought and got it. It all seemed very easy. All I needed was to hit early , with close to 3M damage and minimum kills possible with the help of GF . I won 1 easily,next day another,and another and another . I gained very less xp,much rank points and most importantly BATTLE HEROES . Well,money kept rolling in ,everyday I used my maximum recoverable energy,gained a BH,and then repeated it daily monotonously.
It was getting so easy. I thought I may be rich in a year.I could even own q7 eapons factory at d1. I fought like a boss . I returned some gold too . 20 days 20 BH.......... UNTIL........
APOCALYPSE HAPPENED
Plato introduced infantry kit as the brand new pack . It had the special feature of xp inhibitor . Being a non-pack buyer,it was nothing relevant to me. I fought as usual,scouted for hours,chose potential battle and hit.
Well,I got into a BH sniper and eventually raced with him to last minutes . He was twice my strength so I had to use a booster . I even used few EB ,only to find that he cared of nothing . No point of stopping him. He didn't care how much xp he was burning and just kept killing . I had to let him take it off course, but I found him again next hour,and again ,and again .
Disappointed ,I called the day off . Next day,I lost 1 BH ,next day another ,and after that,it seemed there were no potential battles left. Suddenly,the BH damage had gone too high .
Since then,a pool of d1 players with similar strength , hit every battle ,of every country,at every possible time . 2-clickers I never even heard of, caused havoc every campaign . I have been reduced to a poor 2-clicker ,with negligible damage ,and no chance to get back to those glorious days again.
My friend's feed is flooded with battle hero messages ,from same names ,daily. A battle hero medal,but really a HERO ?
Not many can think of BH hunting other than that group. Not many can enjoy battles and wars other than pack buyers.
The only way to claim a BH now is,brute force method. Hit first,hit hard ,and have a greater strength .
I have to either 2-click indefinitely and hope this game dies or force myself to buy a pack itself . Division 1 is reduced to very few players,who decide who will win the battle hero in dead battles and which battle is to be made epic .
This regiment competition adds more wound,its clearly a message for everyone to leave but the pack buyers .
Ask your inner self . Do you actually deserve to be a hero in the battle ?
Back to hibernation,
signing off,

infantry kit changes fighting mode,Visacard is stronger
Or...make you damage count...win points for YOUR COUNTRY....not bh for YOURSELF...senior players will help with resources when needed...ask most D4 players how many BH they win...or when was the last time they won one...
None in many months as I have low strength and do not care about BH, etc.
Since I was born, for the first time I saw you writing an article.. Great bro.. 🙂 I seriously liked your writing style.. Do write if you get time in future, not only for an Article Contest.. 🙂
Its not that these fighters didn't exist before . They were supposed to fight in selective battles because of xp thing,but now they can hit anywhere any number of times
Heart warming article 😃
Please do write more in future.
Good article, Sher. I know the IK & a lot of things have changed the game a lot.
But here's the thing. While tanking is an integral part of the game, it is NOT the be all, end all of it. I joined the game in V1 back in 2009; was one of mid-level tanks at one point. Then I quit for over a year & when I came back, I was pretty much insignificant as a soldier. That however did not stop me from being one of the key players in India for quite some time & in was the time I really grew in experience and skill, especially in foreign affairs. I was even in EDEN HQ for quite a few months. I've taken another break and when I came back again, same thing - the stats were insignificant, my talents to do what was necessary for India, were not. We were wiped out at the time; we got back all our regions within weeks. Not to say I did it all; but if we as a community can work together, there's much one can accomplish beyond the battle field, & trust me, that counts way, way more - especially for small nations like us.
So I do hope you stick around, find ways to contribute more, get inspired & get involved ! Heh sorry for the long post. 😉
don't be kejriwal of erep ranting like that.
join the govt, be the change, win elections..... oh wait.
I am inactive only in terms of fighting.
Good account of your personal experience! Keep writing!
