I come to the Trench Wars board in peace, no flaming like in the past.
Making a comeback to trench wars, I have been inspired to win two leagues at once this season. However, I have noticed Trench Wars isn't exactly the same as the previous seasons. I am going to note some changes what I feel is pretty significant in how Trench Wars Leagues has improved/declined.
1) The website structure is superb. Integrating all those squads and records in the site is outstanding. Wish we had something back in 00 when TWL was updated manually and there weren't any stats recorded or anything.
2) Most of the players in league now, roughly 85% of them I hardly recognize. It could be due to the fact I took a 4 month hiatus from the game, but it seems that most of the veterans from 3-4 seasons ago are now gone. There are new faces and new talent and it seems Trench Wars has evened itself out in terms of talent especially this season. Every squad practically has 2-3 power players while the rest are supporting cast. Unlike before where it came down to two squads, this season will probably be the most fair of them all.
3) I'll categorize Trench Wars into 5 generations of players. You have the first generation with MiketheNose, Akilla, CoL and them. Then you have 2nd generation which is TWE and when i first started playing along with playres like Captain Pickle. 3rd Generation is the beginning of emergence of true supersquads with Rampage and Elusive. 4th generation is the Elusive/Siege players. The 5th generation is nowadays where none of the previous squads still exist (the power squads IE Elusive, Siege, -Final-) but there are a lot of new and talented squads on the rise filled with good players.
Its awkward for me when I try and play because I hardly recognize anyone. Aside from my chats, I dont really know anyone outside of them. I'm afraid my generation is dying. there's probably a handful left..around 5 or so which kinda sucks.
However, with new players like demonfaze, ripper, Merce and other star players, I am excited to see how the season will play out because everything is equal now..well at least in terms of warbird dueling.
