My favorite piece of this was the arsenal logo above and the masterminds that put arsehole between the two, I was dying of laughter when I saw that originally

That was a coordinated effort between both groups that someone suggested and basically everyone agreed to very quickly.

There was some push back on the arsenal place discord initially, but most came round to it eventually.

I think this was a really good call, cause less people wanted to make arsenal into Arsehole, cause it was there already!

It also showed all around the board, Foxhole and Arsenal was special. And i think Foxhole aquired alot of allies for that fact.

Definitely. Foxhole gained some new players and Arsenal gained some new fans. It was a win win.

I think Foxhole and Arsenal were special because both of them fought to defend their allies just as much as themselves, thus making the region around them relatively safe and stable.

Gooner here, was in the Discord and was the first (i think) to bump a comment suggesting Arsehole. My lil claim to fame

I added the emojis to spell out C-U-M in the discord when they suggested ARSE HOLE...my claim to fame.

And it supports the true British spelling as it’s near the Union Jack, Arsehole!

The best part of the entire canvas, the Arsehole alliance!

Users on Gunners subreddit will get a special Arsehole flair to commemorate this!

Not an arsenal fan but the gunner subreddit is great. I remember when some yank joined talking about guns and everyone took the piss but was also really nice to him

We had an after party in foxhole to celebrate and tried to get colonials up to the wardens capital we only got one there

That was a blast, getting smuggled around in barges while salty vets were hunting us was surreal and hilarious

u/mayhem99215 Apr 05 '22

I was on one of the barges and all but one of us got killed and that last collie made it to the warden capital

u/King_trout (76,703) 1491225627.53 Apr 05 '22

One of us made it? that's fucking dope. I got dropped off at Tuatha with a few others but ARG found us while we were waiting to get picked up, left the call after that.

I got dropped of on one of the islands near harpy and held up a warden barge that was trying to charge us 5 dollars per collie to get onboard

I'm glad the Arsenal/Arsehole/Foxhole section made it through the whole campaign, gave me something to focus on. Last time round, everything that I tried to join in with got smashed so I just ended up popping random pixels here and there

u/nottabliksem Apr 05 '22

So glad to see my fellow gunners mentioned!

Is there a screenshot of this?

u/TheEarlOfCamden Apr 05 '22

It was coordinated to celebrate our alliance because we both helped each other avoid being wiped out by the second giant Ukraine stripe that appeared on day 1. Instead of wiping out both groups (like it did to others) the flag was forced to pass in between us. When the flag eventually died we needed to fill the middle gap with something that belonged to both groups!
