one of my favorite moments from last year’s Weekend Warrior event, was when we were taking faction photographs and then were released to do whatever.
Well, mine faction, the Rangers, who had done our pics first, decided that we’d “steal” another faction’s war drum, and use it to Cause Trouble On Purpose. That led the other faction, the Sea Lords, who were currently taking pics, to march at us once they were done as we taunted them with several verses of “What do you do with a drunken Sea Lord?”
A few minutes later, our allies for the weekend the Kingsmen, got done their photos and marched down to give us aid... little knowing that us Rangers and Sea Lords decided to join forces at the end of our skirmish. Of course, the Kingsmen were Very Surprised, and they being a tiny faction got destroyed in a 75 vs 25 rout.
And THEN, in my favoritest moment, after we all recovered from that bout... we all, Ranger and Kingsman and Sea Lord, all looked at each other, nodded, and then charged up the hill towards the final faction, the Hearthguard. They, unfortunately were in the middle of picture-taking, but upon seeing a hoard of fighters cresting a hill in very movie-like fashion, quickly as a group abandoned their picture-taking to shield-wall themselves against the onslaught.
I wish I were on their side at that moment, and indeed I wasn’t even in the front of our side, but from what they said it was a very epic moment!
