BetaBlocker Alliance
From Astro Wars
|
What is the advantage of being a BBA member? We like to meet people and our forum is the black box to AW knowledge and fun fun fun. It is simply the way we organize things. You'll soon find out that the BetaBlocker team is trustworthy (due to in-game actions and personal contact via pm, ICQ, MSN, etc.) You'll become involved in all rulings and facets of Astrowars, e.g. intergalactical diplomacy and intergalactical wars, choosing a race within a team, attack/defence tactics, trading and general use of artefacts as few examples

The BetaBlockers History of Astro Wars
Golden Edition 9
Eating up the galactic poutine [TGP]
At this state I want to thank TGP for their ongoing offensive Astrowar against BBA. BBA was able to grow nice until a state TGP decided to fight us. We were warned and able to defend good. our new member v3t3r got damage a lot due to his starting position too much out of the core of BBA and their allies fom start FBSP and WHF.
Many veteran players of BBA switched to FBSP alliance,a as they saw a lower motivated core of BBA veterans and a high motivated FBSP leadership.
Dumbeline, KonradP and the phantastic swedish team Lasse and Tommy left. TNR demobilized and therefore mannix become BetaBlocker.
Members of edition 9 - small but smart team of 7 members
Saratoga also known as vir2l had a flat movement, so Dassel took over the control and he had several nice interception fights.
[XR]Xtasis Rebellion once again close enough to become the key for success. BBA and TGP at the point break of war - XR turn the balance and TGP ruined, several members resign or turn idle - BBA relax, fill culture slots ... the end among top 50 alliances possible.
Golden Edition 8
Alliance rank 41 - started as return of the BetaBlocker Alliance. Veteran members as Bartosz and KonradP returned, TD gave the BetaBlocker Alliance a new chance. Log in with several partner alliances and thus a clear stronger position against opponents from [SJ]Space Junkies. The number of members raised up to 15, but the war and the discussions of TD made 2 members quit.
KonradP was voted to be the best fighter among 100 allies, as he did not only gain a simple player level of 40, but did amazing, fast moves and defence plannings as well as offense damage.
Golden Edition 7
... alliance rank 93 ... only ceraphim and odichris held up the flag duststar left Astrowars Bored of the wars, as many others members of edition 7
Golden Edition 6
The BetaBlocker Alliance was log in together with The New Republic to repeat good old times (see Edition 1) The Black Sheep [BLA] alliance was close and from the beginning on it was clear: BLA and BBA will stay the course of war - Astrowar. BLA united with [CPO] alliance. Luckily TNR had many trader fighters, that were equipped with BetaBlocker trade partner %. Thus they were able to ruin BLA and even blast to dust BeastlyBoom. [CPO] attempts to win with single ranker were a joke - as a trade off [CPO]WhiteNinja came with way too much transporters for a short trip throug our systems.
Actually real good fights and some nice team work. 16 members
alliance rank: 49
Golden Edition 5
The BetaBlocker Alliance fought against SKY - funny but true the first alliance that gave starcatcher insight view of alliance live. An overall high PL was result of ongoing fights. While [RATS] later jumped against us for expected knock down we were setting up several traps. Our allis of [DAT] did even better and thus [BBA] was able to get biology level 25 and grow strong enough to give a challange to intruders to the very end - at least. Members: Lasse, ASSASS1N (player level 51), ST0RMTR0OPER, Virl, ST0RMTRO0PER, KonradP (player level 42), STORMTR0OPER, odichris, ST0RMTR00PER (player level 42), wamba, STORMTR00PER, dramac
The stormtrooper suite was worn by Levitikus, duststar, starcatcher and ceraphim The ASSASS1N was Tommy64
Alliance rank 73
Golden Edition 4
[TNR] vs [BBA] sounds dangerous, but wasn't. TNR just a shadow of its own, BetaBlocker in the end bored again. But then duststar, legendary mamber among the BetaBlocker Alliance managed to kick [BLA]BeastlyBoom out of the count down for single rankers. Nice incomings and finally some action was the result. That is the Astrowars we love to play. The revenge of [BLA] was to drop us and nearly kick us out of the top 50 alliance ranking.
Golden Edition 3
A big AstroWars federation between Solar Forces [SF] (including several former Sesam Street Seperatists [SSS] ), Drunken Horse Squad [DHS], and the BetaBlockers logged in 10 days after the AstroWars Galaxy Edition 3 big bang. At the border to the outer rim growing is easy without much fights. Having more than 90 allies makes the whole spot very save - thus it turned out to be booooring. Many useless actions done by bored BetaBlockers.
Golden Edition 2
Hard times, outnumbered by far. OCB, TIM, BLA, +++ = together 7 alliances were fighting the BetaBlocker team. Some from beginning, some later. Therefore the BetaBlocker alliance was vanished and only few could survive. The final ranking is not worth being mentioned. But the experience showed that diplomacy and luck make most of the game. Therefore we bought some cans of luck for edition 3.
Golden Edition 1
With the knowledge and experience of many galaxies (betas) the BetaBlocker alliance became the 2nd force within the galaxy ... only few parsec from our systems was The New Republic [TNR] - winners of GE1, the Sesam Street Seperatists [SSS], TGD and XR ... therefore this galaxy spiral became a powerful place in space ... CoRE alliance was vanished ... NIAI alliance could be stopped ... 2 days in count down were survived ... massive attacks of NEMO could be shoot down and some MOW be stopped ... the fun was perfect.
Beta 10
Invasion of the STxRMTRxxPERS ... perfected organisation ... results are ...
alliance on rank #3
Beta 9
Some of the beta 8 members joined again, while some of the core real world friends joined other alliances. The alliance was created by starcatcher this time.
Very early attack of NEMO alliance against fentoozler. Thus started a war with BBA fleets on one side and NEMO, TM, [EU]Sajuuk and later some TZAR player fleets on the opposite side.
BBA had up to 31 players and NEMO together with TM had around 70 players, therefore we had lot of nice battles and good player levels, even while loosing more and more planets due to the outnumbering. Final ranking was #138 in the alliance list, with several BBA members only surviving in the far outer rim of the galaxy.
Beta 8
The Beta Blocker Alliance was first created by druss - the legend was born.
It all worked very well for the BBA and more players were invited to join - basically everyone around that did not join another alliance or was fighting one of the members. Soon an international crew established a nice 'n safe place.
AstroHocke made it up to the #1 ranking and countdown was running when some friends of a player we killed before came by and had their revenge - our aim to win the round was over. The final alliance ranking was ~38.
Real World background
A group of real world friends decided after beta 5, 6 and 7 to play closer together and make an alliance. The name was one option of a poll list inside the BBA forum.
During Golden Edition 1 was a real life meeting of many AstroWars enthusiasts. It was a fun BBQ party and a chance to meet each other and get to know many other players whom we had only 'met' on the battlefield until then.
