Love my guild, hate my Kurzick alliance...
Lishy
I think that instead of worrying about kurzick poetry, the luxons and kurzicks should team up to stop and even bigger emo..
Nerel
So one group (the Luxons), mine an area that is dead, sterile and devoid of life? While the other group (the Kurzicks), mine amber in an area that is fragile, damaged with life struggling to re-emerge?
That is an interesting point, thank you sir.
Kurzicks are reckless environmental vandals!
Save the environment, END a Kurzick today! You know you want to...

Technicly amber is just dried sap, so they are just recycling
Nerel
Actually, it isn't sap... it's a form of fossilized tree resin, but I do understand your point about it's origins and the issue of recycling. I also understand that to mine 'amber' one would still need to destroy the fossilized trees, essentially 'mining' in an area that you yourself had pointed out is struggling with the re-emergence of forest life.
I think you're just looking for excuses not to do THE RIGHT thing, go on, slaughter some Kurzicks... you'll feel better for it and the environment will thank you.
By the gods, won't somebody think of the children... err, I mean baby turtles...

Those baby turtles would have grown up to kill them. Of course they're going to kill the damn turles.
...am I actually arguing against this?

I'm in a canthan guild and I will annihilate all kurzicks AND luxons, we have gaint stone turtle statues and stuff
We will take over the whole freaking world!

Think of it this way, those baby turtles would have grown into seige turtles that would have been used to kill your own, so which do you value more the life of a turtle or little kurzick timmy?

Serves them right for being so damn slow

Luxon is the best imo. Never enjoyed playing on the Kurzick side of anything.
This is just another example of kurzick inhumanity and cruelty. I mean the best they can do is sacrifice own their citizens and turn them into monsters?

gogo guest invite to luxon guild and play AB for them
then just donate to them - 2 birds 1 stone...

My guild and alliance isn't so good either, but at least they are good to dump faction to lol. Most alliance chats are this: "anybody for MQSC?", "Can I get a price check on ____?", "+__K [__]", "Welcome ____ to the alliance.", or people policing chat and making fake drama because they have a stick up their ass most of the time (am I allowed to say that here lol).

I love this thread. Just kind of hilarious, well maybe not the killing baby turtles and all.

Is it wrong that when I was in a Kurzick guild, I tried to betray the Luxons in Gyala Hatchery?
I was disappointed that Unholy Feast didn't work on the pathetic creatures.

Everyone in this thread that isn't a Kurzick is banned in 3...
FengShuiDove
So... let me get this straight... you have more of an issue with the Kurzicks trying to kill baby turtles in the Gyala Hatchery mission than with the Luxons trying to kill people in The Eternal Grove?
...
Sure, baby turtles are cuter than adult men in most cases, but if we're talking general value of life here, I'm going with the Kurzicks have higher priorities. Oh! And don't counter with "Well the Kurzicks kill people to get to the turtles!" Sure, but the Kurzicks kill people to protect people, whereas the Luxons kill people to protect baby turtles!
P.S. My girlfriend is a major animal lover and we love to tease her (in love) about being a tree hugger and stuff. The irony of that title, of course, is fairly obvious in this situation.

I had to go look up my password just to post what FengShuiDove wrote. It's why no one takes PETA or the other extremist animal groups seriously; they literally value animal life more than human life. Of ALL the things to be horrified in this apocalyptic game, you're worried about the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOin' turtles.

Luxons rule
Luxons have turtles with huge cannons on their backs. Kurzicks have...trees.

As for the Kurzicks being happy go lucky, tree huggers that are 'merely' defending themselves... yeah, that's why they're trying to invade the Luxon's Jade quarries, send raiding parties deep into Luxon lands to way lay innocent travelers (Maishang) and are waging an offensive war against all things good and decent... oh, that and the bad poetry and emo kid make up.
Edit: Oh, and on the tree hugger front... you'll note that the defenders of the forest, the guardians of nature... THE WARDENS have turned against the Kurzicks too! Sure, you'll pretend that it's some 'dark influence' corrupting the wardens, but wake up and smell the decaying Kurzick corpses... the Wardens are sick of seeing INNOCENT trees being MOLESTED by these perverted Kurzick tree huggers. No means NO.

@ OP: Well you got it all wrong!! The Kurzicks are killing the turtles (out of love for living creatures) to save them from a whole life of Luxon slavery!!!
Did the Luxons leave a choice to the turtles??
Nope they just use them like tools

Cool.
Kurzicks are made into Juggernauts, mindless automatons meant for only one thing, DESTRUCTION of others... by your logic it would be far kinder for those Kurzicks to be brutally murdered as infants, than to allow this horrible abomination of an existence.
Fight against slavery, uphold human rights, save the poor Kurzicks from a fate worse than death! Murder Kurzick children... they'll thank you for it.
Won't somebody think of the children? I did, and I brought my battle axe!

not like it really matters both factions get rolled by Emperor Usoku.

Yes, probably due to Kurzick treachery, no doubt.

Juggernauts, like Protoss Archons, represent the selfless sacrifice of a nation to defend their borders and people at any cost.

Looks like I need to change my guilds alliance.
We are called "The Turtle Moves [DISC]" with a turtle on our cape after all.
I say "we", but it's really just me. I was playing around looking at the different cape pictures and was hit with inspiration when I saw the turtle. I have to say, I'm a little disappointed that in two years, I have never received a whisper or any other sign that the reference was appreciated. I guess GW players just aren't fans ('cept me).

Turtles are cute. Juggers are not. Turtles have massive cannons on their backs. Juggers have stupidly, oversized hand-glove things. Turtles move nice. Juggers move funny. I'm Kurzick btw. But Turtles are simply better. End of.
I think we've gone off topic.
