(Ireland about his IC-history, from Harkonnen forum Dec 2002, posted in here by Altruist:)

I started late in Beta 2. I orginally joined Milky Way but saw that people had like 200 planets and I was starting with 1 so I didn't think this was fair. I heard that they were opening Triangulum. So i joined there and landed in the family with Altruist. Went by Ireland back then. 23 Ireland Quantam 16 37780 Was still learning back then. If I rememer correctly none of those planets had portals as I was just building them because I didn't know wha they did.

Beta 3 moved to Milky Way still a newbie and learning. I took over leadership at the end of the round. So Altruist wouldn't leave us. Since he wouldn't marry me, that was the only other choice.

Beta 4 was my round. Started as leader however I missed the first two weeks because I was on vacation and I got a race I probably wouldn't have normally picked...oh well. Did quite well despite my very late start. Engaged in a personal type war against HH forced him into the all famous HH mode as we dubbed it or better known vacation mode. 36 Ireland Celtic Druids 128 9667580

Round 1...I was ending my senior year in high school and about to ship off to the marines. So i started the round not really caring about my own personal empire that much. Was leader once again. It turned out to be a mistake about not caring. As it turned out to be probably the biggest war in IC history numbers wise. I was able to build over 6 mil droids. Which brought me up to 2 in nw which after a few attacks by the enemy had me lol my head off because from the reports I got back from my loses meant they had to have been losing a crap load. It wasn't too much later...that lol turned to tears as I watched my 6 mil + droids quickly disappear. It came at the right time though as I had to leave for the marines...I handed my account over the harks that were left and went into my retirement.


Round 4 i made my return... I was not planning on it. I picked a small galaxy because I read about the crap going on in the mw and I didn't want all the headaches again. Just something simple where I coudl be a self sustained attacker type thing. Well the family I landed in had 2 very active people that was it besides me. Though us 3 combined 4 Last Argument of Kings (611) (x:23,y:60) 18326908 1238 which was us. We lost quite a bit of planets though in the last days of the round in a war. I personally gave over 200 planets so our biggest guy could finish number 1 in size. This was me 10 Leisciuil Diabhal Gaeltacht 5012012 232 that is size the only thing that matters....I dropped about 3 or so mil before the war so the enemy we were fighting couldn't hit me, which turned out to be a mistake on my part because my air fleet the part I disbanded was much much bigger than his. Oh well you live and learn. I was once again leader.

Round 5....I got drafted into the Thugs family as they were the only family besides the Harks I would probably ever play with. I took over role of leader once again. Though we had some conflicting conflicts about how things should be run. Our first war started out bad...I am going to steal pie's post....

our first war was against 39, lead by morgul and 41, they asked us for a nap, and we did not want to give them one... we later agreed on a 24 hr ceasefire until a nap decision was made. after the ceasefire ended, we hit them full force....

the war started *just* against 39, and just lazy devils and myself fighting their families... after him and I cleared 39 out of our systems, we decided to go ahead and start our attack on 41...

hellraizer joined us a few ticks into the war, and for much of the beginning of the war, it was just the 3 of us vs 2 families... and we were creaming them. The rest of our families later joined in cleanup attacks and a nap was finally reached. i remember that 39 and 41 ended the round strongly, despite having been bashed consistantly... i tip my hat to them

We were growing very fast up to this point. We slowed down a little bit still being very landfat. A very common problem with harks and hark recruits... . The pirates aren't that bad of attackers either. Anyway The Gods dediced to come after us but we found this out before hand. We saved and prepared and the tick we were about to do a premptive strike with none of them were on....IC went down. When it went back up time was reset two ticks so my fleet was still building and they had declared war. So I immediately declared back and when my fleet was done I went about decimating every single air fleet they had. This was still not my entire air force either I had more coming. Our ground guy was Hellraizer who was not on and his fleet was still building. But then on one of my attacks my entire air fleet disappeared on me. After that the war went to shit. Since they were so much bigger than us. However Hell managed to give them a decent fight with ground for awhile till they jumped someone. The problem was that was our entire savings poured into me and Hell. I was really pissed about this and considered quiting as an outrage to all the crap the mods and admins pulled that round. I stuck it out until blocked and deleted by lizzy vowing never to come back to IC again. I then went back into retirement and promised some people if there were custom games I would play or if somehow the Harks could be reunited I would play.
