An Announcement

[Miraj]

Hi all BC forum goers,

I would like to announce that AlphaDelta has officially been removed as an active member on Broken Crescent.

As of late AlphaDelta has been displaying non-responsiveness to any of our requests and total lack of communication. This came to a head when he began withholding the Strelac's ERE units and refusing to send them to the team after installing them into the main BC build. Hence the reason why Ahiga was unable to create the ERE preview.

As of this moment, AlphaDelta is no longer a BC team member. He has left the mod under pretenses of a "CTD" issue. A common technical issue every mod faces in far worse force than our own. Me, Ahiga or Strelac, fail to believe this is the real reason for attempting to deny Broken Crescent.
Ironically, the CTD was solved within the last day or two.

However, the BC team is bigger than just one man. Mod progress WILL continue and we will ascertain and discuss the situation pertaining to denial of use for AD's units with moderators. Strelac, Ahiga, and GrandViz are still on board and there will be many great units coming from Strelac in the future.

We would appreciate your continued support for the Broken Crescent team in the coming days and weeks.

Thank you and our Apologies

Someone's gotta ask these questions, and I feel since noone here seems to like me anyway it should be me.


1: Will AD take his work with him?


2: how far back will this set the BC team?


3: Did you(Mirage) actaully curse him out or is their more to this than we ae being let on to?


4: Is Strelac ready to take up the extra work?


5: will nothing change at all?


6: are you guys ok?


7: do you think Im an Emo?




Sorry that last one was to just lighten the mood.

[Miraj]

1) That will be sorted out
2) Not sure yet, but we sure as hell wont let it sink the Project. We'll move to our main website if need be.
3) Yes I did, but thats after much discussion and where he basically told the entire BC team to **** off on MSN. Needless to say, what I said was true.
4) Strelac will do as he pleases. Just like ALL members of BC. If he's up for it we're up for it.
5) Things will change. Not dealing with AD's incessant negative attitude for one.
6) We're fine. Just puzzled by these turn of events. Pretty much a giant welcome turd after my exams.
7) Aren't we all...

We may move all our operations to our own forums soon. So just keep the above site in mind.

Backstabbing would probably be an understatement.

Thanks for the support guys.

whatever happens I will always support Bc

I hate myself, I am going to kill myself, AD was amazing!!!
This is the worst day of my (non-real) life

[warluster]

It's sad to see him go. saw the thread in the Modding Forums, and I wish both groups luck with modding endeavours. (Though if AD is stealing BC work, where hsall this case be taken?)

[Son of Mao]

I was reading the thread Middle East:Total War and this is very saddening, indeed, it was so close to being done.

[Miraj]

AD nor BC is stealing anything. All work done during Broken Crescent's progress belongs to Broken Crescent. So we're not losing any work or material or stealing anything. All of AlphaDelta's work will be credited to him of course and we appreciate his work. We're just saddened at why he would intentionally choose such a path of destructive behavior over nothing.

However denial, of any work done for and during BC will not be accepted by the team. That is known as sabotage and we will fight it till the very end.

[Son of Mao]

Ok, AD is John, Mirage is Paul. I am really tired, so that may not make sense, but I am dead.

[IrAr]

At least most of the work is done.
Awww. This makes me sad. Very sad, very, very sad.
Why he akin' like a ****?

[Miraj]

I wish I could console you guys and give reasons for why this would happen. But, frankly, there are no real legitimate ones - aside from the fact that certain people do not understand what it means being on a team.

[IrAr]

According to his logic, aren't the Ghulams the sole property of Strelac? So, if we were to use that thinking, he's stealing from Strelac?
And we loved him! We really did! He was amazing, he was one of the go-to-guys! We never insulted, nagged, hassled, nor waiver in our praise. We need a betrayal emoticon-- that would be the summation of this thread.
You know what, **** Medieval: Middle East and damn that bland, unoriginal name. I never wanted this to happen, no one did except I get the feeling that one did.
I call a boycott on this M:ME.
This is kind of like the Darth Vader becoming Darth Vader plot, no?

[Joker85]

Call me crazy, but isn't EVERYTHING property of CA? Meaning neither BC nor any individual members can declare who can use it for what. So long as none of those uses violate CA's legal IP rights and terms of use. Of course it is common courtesy to not take the work of others without their permission/credit. However in a situation like this where one person has taken the collaborative effort of an entire group and tried to rip it off for himself, I'm of the mind that in this situation going by the letter of the law servers both that and the spirit of it.

It's like a marriage. Just because the house is in your name doesn't mean you can kick out your spouse.

The units are the result of the effort of the entire BC team, therefore they should be able to use them for any and all BC work. I also think however that he has a right to use them for his mod as well. Because as I said, in the end it all belongs to CA, and given that it was a collaboration, both sides have equal rights to use them.

Anyway that is my 2 cents. I have been eagerly following this mod for a while and it is a shame to see such pettiness interfere with a great effort.

1. Does strelac know about this yet?

2. Does this mean the end of BC?

3. Is AD doing the ME:TW thing seriously or just to get back at you guys?

4. How is AD going to do all the other parts of the mod by himself?:hmmm:

I hope all combined work goes to the BC project as a team

[Ahiga]

1. Does strelac know about this yet?

Yes.

2. Does this mean the end of BC?

Not in the least. We will continue as planned.

3. Is AD doing the ME:TW thing seriously or just to get back at you guys?

Who can say but AD? We are in contact with Moderators to discuss what pertains to our Mod. Whatever mods AD does is up to him.

4. How is AD going to do all the other parts of the mod by himself?:hmmm:

Up to him how he will do it, how he will depends on what he wishes to do.

[Miraj]

3. Is AD doing the ME:TW thing seriously or just to get back at you guys?

Lets be crystal clear on one thing. AD is not getting "back" at us - we have done nothing for him to retaliate about anyways. Our worst crime was basically asking to send the ERE units that Strelac did so we could finish the preview. So basically he has no legitimacy at all trying to claim anything against us.

He has betrayed the team, the fans and the project for his own personal desire to control everything. Those are his very reasons he told me for leaving BC. He dislikes working on a team. He's a talented guy - don't get me wrong. And I still have nothing but love for AlphaDelta. But like a brother that does you wrong we need to put our foot down somewhere.

We did nothing to incur any of this. We, and all you fans have been 110% supportive of him. We've cheered him and to this day - I appreciate him and would wish he never took this unreasonable, baffling and irrational course of action. And to repeat: All work done for BC, stays with BC.

[Tadzreuli]

This event does mod more intriguing and serves as even more advertising for it ............

Very sad news, AD was the real expert in 3D graphic arts ....


.......but this is not finish of the world !!! .... we, fans are with BC team and we will conquer glory in a place with you !!!! and I hope, that after that happens, the command with greater energy will finish the mod, what to prove: Strength is in Unity!!! GOD with us, we carry power !!!!
