DREADFORT

Revision as of 21:46, 13 December 2018 by Admin (talk | contribs)

The DREADFORT was the primary base of BMW during the 2015 Era of BMW. Although the original architect of the DREADFORT was Kimsemus, Taylor Swift and Rejdukien both heavily contributed to the later revisions, adding to its flow, defensibility, and stability.

History

Pre-BMW

The DREADFORT was originally envision by the clan leader of GM, Kimsemus. He chose the name based partially on his avatar of Roose Bolton from Game of Thrones, whos family seat in Westeros was the same. The original concept came on the heels of the infamous FORD raid against GMs satellite base. The original DREADFORT was only 3 stories high and made of stone.

1st DREADFORT

 
The first DREADFORT, foundation raided while Bimmers were offline by an unknown streamer.

When BMW formed and began playing on PsiSyndicate, it was realized that the increased manpower would need a much larger base to use. First and foremost, a starter based was made to use to farm the resourced needed for the new base, named PIZZA HUT. This trend and tradition would remain throughout the years for BMW, naming a starter base after a popular fast food chain and including it in the final compound.

The first DREADFORT fell to ruin however when it was offline raided by a streamer. BMW based out of the Pizza Hut for the remainder of the wipe, until Kimsemus and Taylor were banned for stream sniping ThatConleyKid.

2nd DREADFORT

 
The Second DREADFORT, not long after being repaired following the semi-successful PANDAS raid.

With the move to Rusty Bottoms, BMW again rethought the layout of the DREADFORT. With the false positive ban of Kimsemus, the construction and design fell to Rejdukien. The first major change was the focus placed upon the starter shack, oppossed to the typical small shack that was near the DREADFORT, the starter base was built heavily upon and was many more yards away from the DREADFORT than usual. This scheme failed heavily when PANDAS boost raided the starter shack before THE DREADFORT could be completed.

PANDAS would again strike, this time at the complete DREADFORT, managing to completely foundation raid it. The few online Bimmers managed to repair the foundations before a server restart could take place and disaster was averted.

The DREADFORT would come under attack once again at the hands of FUKBMW who managed only to breach the first set of exterior walls of the compound before they were routed.

3rd DREADFORT

The 3rd iteration was almost a carbon copy of the 2nd, with very few minor revisions. It was located almost in the exact same spot to, as the weeks wipe had not changed the map seed. The starter shack was placed within the walls of the compound (Which later backfire when KRAKEN used it to mount several raids against the DREADFORT, all of which were unsuccessful). Also featured on the grounds was iRoguebots nerd pole, which was also taken and used against the DREADFORT at several points before it was torn down. Prude later in the wipe built a second smaller DREADFORT to the northeast that was connected by a skybridge that was widely mocked due to its usefulness in a theoretical raid situation.

The northern part of the compound was not fully walled in and instead was peppered by a sea of wood traps and barricades, which actually turned out to be strangely effective.

The 3rd DREADFORT was the first fort that was not once breached by a single enemy. KRAKEN launched countless attempts against it however, never progressing past taking a few out shacks.
