Making and breaking the alliance of doom.
As we usually do, my discord clan was running a dual-galley alliance on a server.
As we were still gathering supplies, our sister ship got sunk by a brig in spawn.
We all chased after it, and as we were closing in, a reaper brig started going after that brig as well.
At that point the original brig told us over their megaphone that they attacked our sister ship because they mistook them for the reaper and they didn't want to fight.
So all 4 of us anchored, talked, and eventually decided to form a 4-ship mega alliance.
The gallies would do legend of the veil and the brigs would do the FotD.
Initially we were planning to steal the FotD, but it took them so long to get it up that we finished legend of the veil, did a FoF, and as we were loading that up they finally brought the FotD up.
It was getting too late for a few of our people, so they logged off.
We decided that instead of a proper attacks we were just going to do a meme strat, and rowboat all the way from Sanctuary to tuck on the fort.
On the way we picked up a third rowboat and a keg from an island.
The plan was that one of our guys would swim over, keg one of the brigs to cause a distraction, and the rest of us would grab some loot, load the rowboats, and we would scatter in different directions.
We also overheard the brig crews mention they were piling all of their kegs in the middle of the island.
So we sunk on brig with the keg, went in to steal, but couldn't find where they moved most of the loot.
One of our guys grabbed an Athena keg to rush the other brig, but he got shot on the way and they detonated the stash.
I started getting away with a chest in a rowboat but got sniped.
Ultimately we didn't get anything but it was still funny.
