117 was my first war and i spent a lot of time in terminus doing backline logi. It was quite a shocker seeing the warden advance into the town
I will freely admit I thought this war was lost for us in the beginning. Watching the Wardens dig in our heels, grit our teeth, and turn the tide was truly spectacular. Remember kids, Ogmaran broke before the Wardens did. Great war everyone, we made Callahan proud!
"It was the deadliest war ... Congrats everyone ... for beating that record" This is VERY awkward without a context lol
Terminus? You mean the Warden Yacht Club?
When you're in the middle of a bombardment, absolute chaos everywhere with limbs and hammers flying, you ever think about the warden crew on the battleship chilling out there sipping tea and making casual conversation?
Excellent war. You guys fought hard. Too bad us Wardens gain sustenance from radiation.
Biggest warden clutch ever. Gone from certain defeat to victory within a week 🤝🤝🤝
Quite impressive train station you guys had there in Terminus, it became a warden tourism hot spot.
Damn, the Wardens really pulled it off! GGs to everyone involved, I thought 117 was gonna be another short war and y'all made it a historic slugfest!
This was my first war, and I fought for the Wardens. And it was a blast playing as a medic in Clasthra and then doing some freighter trips to help hexes with no supplies.( I wish it didn't turn like a bus though ). Thanks for the videos that helped me get into this game!
Oh boy. It will be bit long but here is my Warden experience during this war: I joined a bit too late to this war but i still had a lot of fun on wardens team. I didn't really feel tied to any specific front untill I decided to leave frontline and focus instead on backline logi in Morgens Crossing establishing my own little logi stock pile with personal Flatbed and trucks with even 3 LUV's prepared for future solo partisant runs as I have already tried it and had fun in Reavers Pass before I made them. Sadly I never got to use those LUV's as war ended before I could but I did manage to make 3 AC and convert 2 into flamethrower variants as well as making 1 silverhand and 2 HTD's for public use. I assembled something like 14 or 16 containers of various goods split and sorted in such fashion that they made sense and were clear to what purpose they serve so people doing mid line logi could take them instantly wherever they were needed. Sadly for me I collected and refined good quanity of resources a bit too late as i just started to refine them on day 47/48. I did manage to make loads of stuff on day 48/49 but sadly most of it was not packed into containers as that day was very busy and I simply couldn't spare time to pack them and I didn't want to dump it into public stockpile as I assumed that Colonials would hold for at least few more days and taking stuff form public stock takes ages when you are trying to load containers full of stuff. I was pretty angry on myself when I woke up next day and saw on Reddit of all places that war was over meaning that all that stuff that I didn't dump into public was wasted. On a bit happier note I had a blast fighting against Colonials in Loch Mór , it was day 48 if im not mistaken. Im not sure what operation was exactly taking place there but I assume the plan was that the side that I was fighting on was supposed to distract Colonials holding Felmor so that our other forces could hit it from the other side and together with us encircle and destroy Colonial forces in the city. This did not materialize, at least not when I was playing. We were fighting Colonials while desperately holding very badly supplied forward BB. We lost it after hour of fighting if im not mistaken. Our Outlaw tried to fend off Spatha but failed and after more tanks showed up they pretty much wiped that base no issue. We then held a choke point near Relic base "Tomb of the First" with some mines preventing Colonial push along the shore. Our Infantry did pretty good job holding them back and tanks were also reluctant to push. At some point HTD and second Outlaw showed up preventing any Colonial tank push. Its worth noting that Collies had BTD and BT with 2 spathas and Light tank and later on a Bardiche tagged along. They tried to disarm our mines along the shore which they were successful at but tanks failed to capitalize on this , being scared of our AT rifles and AT grenades. We pushed them back a bit and mined that area again as well as setting up a lot of mines on main road. Finally Colonial tanks pushed a bit too far trying to get our Tanks and BTD got tracked by AT mine and finished off with Grenades. Then Colonial tanks were pushed back , slowly and steadily towards the bridge leading to Felmor as we quickly had to disarm our own mines to allow our tanks to push. Our ATR's did surprisingly well supporting the tanks at night managing to track BT and Bardiche allowing our tanks to eventually ether kill them or forcing them to abandon their position holding one of Colonial BB. At some point we got 3 120MM arty raining hell on Colonial positions as well as later on SPG allowing us to mop up any remaining resistance. When I was frontline looting during active combat with Colonial remnants I stole a truck and was so happy with myself that I didn't notice that Im driving into our new bigger tank line. I slammed into SHT leading the charge but fortunately managed to recover fast enough and not cause much disturbance. Resistance was pretty much gone on the road with only 1 last ditch decently sized Colonial Bane and Venom partisan rush but fortunately I was sitting as gunner for a Scout tank that was covering some regiments building efforts. I gunned down most of the Colonials before they managed to cause any meaningful damage to our tanks and later walked into one at night trying to shoot our tank with bane. I murdered him in cold blood with my trusty pistol and moved on. After that position was finally secured we moved on to clear out Colonial concrete base that was pretty much only thing holding us from rolling over "Market Road" Relic which was completely undefended. Had a lot of fun fighting in trenches of that CB with Colonials trying to stop our tanks with mines but they got pushed out from the trenches for long enough that we disarmed them all. They tried to blow up part of the trench that we were using after they pushed us back for a bit with havoc charge but I guess they either lacked the detonator or we simply recaptured that position before they could even get a chance to set it up properly. Brutal trench close combat continued. One time I accidentally forgot to leave my hammer so when I managed to get behind one Colonial holding us from advancing instead of killing I hammered him in back of the head. He blasted me with buckshot after that but we had good laugh about it. More trench warfare later our tanks got close enough to hit the bunker core and it was over. We spent few minutes clearing out AI and concrete and later me and 3 others began to disarm all the mines that Colonials rudely left inside the complex. We pushed without any more resistance to Relic base and destroyed it. Some unlucky logi got there as we arrived resulting in him dying and us getting 6 free shirt crates plus some other stuff. Was amazing fight and its a shame war ended so soon for me. Also shout out to that one random cadet who was calling Colonials " filthy Americans ". Gave me good laugh that did. I hope if hes reading this hes having a good day.
12:45 “THREE SECONDS KEYSER SOZE!” I’ll remember you my fallen comrade! I was too far away and couldn’t reach him in time! It was fun being a medic in the final moments frantically healing everyone. Once the war had ended we healed up and revived the remaining wardens and got in a circle and chatted about the war. Foxhole really is the best.
What a come back from the wardens....I remember one of your first vid on the wardens about them being in strike! Shows that it isn't over until it's over! Brilliant coverage as always Rob thanks 👍
Thanks for your great content this war Robert. 117 will live long in the memory.
what a great war this was. big props to the warden, you guys have my respect for coming back from that. the legion really dropped the ball this war, but it was amazing nonetheless. thank you all that stood and fought to the END!
The warden naval clan won this war. Endless ship production huge factory. Naval victory
I think the mistake was Colonials nuking the midline logistics zones...ticked Wardens off, and prevented the Colonials from getting the final blow against them due to not having a good launching point.
GG colonials. You had us in the first half. Thank you for making my first full war so memorable. Good luck on the next.
I give respect to you collies that didn't give up the fight once the war began to turn. GGs - A warden
