I used to post quite a lot on these forums. There were a few reasons for this; the main one being that early in my CN career I was on the winning side of a couple lopsided wars and found myself bored to tears by them. I decided it would be more fun to try the other side, and you know I was right. Probably why I'm still here, but CN warfare against the odds is actually pretty fun. I'm also a fast typer and good at coming up with controversial remarks, especially crazy-sounding but technically pla
On January 24th, the Mushroom Kingdom, as a part of Doomhouse, declared war on the New Pacific Order. On January 26th, two days later, a group of alliances countered with the bulk of their higher NS nations in peace mode.
At the time of the counter-declarations, the following Mushroom Kingdom nations were in peace mode, and have been in peace mode continuously since then.
Infrastructure: 8,999.99 Nation Strength: 67,404.359
Infrastructure: 15,500.99 Nation Strength: 65,616.456

The general lesson here is that aiding rogues is only bad when they're hitting Ragnarok.
I don't know what role LegendoftheSkies plays in \m/ - possibly he's government, don't know.
This is dumb. It just isn't, unless you want to argue that peace mode is bad for the game.
What's more, none of you guys complained about it when C&G did it in the TPF war.
A recap of the TPF war: C&G hit TPF, then we ordered our lower-tier nations into dove, then C&G ordered their upper-tier nations into dove.
C&G used exactly the strategy that we've been using in this war, and the reason was that they did not want to fight TOP's upper tier.
Just like we don't want to fight
I know where your signature image comes from.
You should try to act more like Guts and less like Casca. And realize that Junka is more than a little bit like Griffith.
For those who have no idea what I'm talking about, Galerion knows. Also you can read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Berserk_characters
Once upon a time, you guys signed a treaty with IRON.
The relevant sections follow.
Preamble:
We, the alliances of R&R and the Independent Republic of Orange Nations (hereby referred to as IRON), sign this pact in essence of orange unification, friendship, and stronger bonds of faith through security, defense, intelligence, and finance.
Article I: Mutual Defense
A declaration on one signatory through military means is considered an attack on both signatories. A 24 hour notice will be gi
Once upon a time, there was an alliance of sorts called The Rebbilon.
I remember them often these days. If I compare you to them, it probably means you're both amusing me greatly and not very important in the game.
They were an offshoot of a bunch of wannabe spies in the ODN, led by a guy called Pete McAvoy (I think that was his name originally; his only real spying effort I know of was this thread about Polar). Anyway, they were a bunch of anti-ODN rogues, and back then
For the Love of God, Think of the Casualties! Convention
Preamble.
The undersigned alliances, wishing to prevent the de-escalation of conflicts into peace mode, and the horrifying devastation it brings to casualty counts, proudly commit to the For The Love of God, Think of the Casualties! Convention.
Article I.
Each signatory joins this Convention individually, as a unilateral solemn commitment to its principles and intentions. This document does not constitute an alliance or pact between th
That is NEW's alliance graph.
NEW has 69 nations out of 158 in peace mode. Roughly half the alliance is in anarchy, presumably largely due to nukes.
However it is clear they are not getting mauled.
Meanwhile, FEAR and UFF, the alliances who entered to defend them officially, are getting destroyed.
Much as I hate to admit it, at this point it seems clear that the deal PC and iFOK made was sufficient for their ally to win this war. The alliances of International, TPE and Fark do not have the n
There appears to be a lot of confusion over what it means. Many people seem to think it just indicates that the surrendering party is defeated.
This is not the case. It indicates a transfer of control; the surrendering party gives something over to the conqueror.
Here are a number of links to online dictionaries explaining what the word means.

Want to go out with a bang, but don't want to feel guilty about it?
If you've got a fairly big nation, go join IRON or DAWN. You can help Planet Bob while on the way out, no guilt attached.
Yes, you did !@#$ on practically everyone. And I take it from this that you're saying you tried to make it up to everyone.
So I guess I missed the delegation you sent to Legion to apologize to them for supporting threats of OOC criminal actions against their members in GWIII?
I collected the aidscreens, war screens, and spy screens connecting to Sedrick before the alliance war began, and sorted them all in chronological order.
That's the hard evidence. It shows that Sedrick was a happy member of TENE, selling tech to Ragnarok, on the afternoon of August 4th. Something happened between 3pm and 6pm; in roughly 3 hours Sedrick has become an MHA applicant and is being targeted by a TENE nation for spy attacks. A bit over 48 hours later, Sedrick responds by launching a
The current opposition is too small.
C&G was able to unseat the NPO not because of any great foreign policy ability, but because the Superfriends and the Citadel decided to change sides, combined with a large number of boredom deletions among the ruling alliances in the old older.
Now let's look at the list of the top 40 alliances and where they sit in foreign policy terms. I'm counting treaties to the three ruling blocs plus Fark and Sparta, as those two alliances tie together a lot of th
I noticed your declarations of war reasons. It looks like it was your intention to quote Harbinger. Was this because he was the guy who lost the war in Mass Effect 2 despite having massive odds in his favour?
I'm really not sure videogame villains are who you should be going for as a model, they have a nasty habit of turning up dead.
This is an intriguing statement.
Offline, I play and run roleplaying games of the traditional sort quite a lot. Sir Quote's claim here that the point of having an IC/OOC line is to prevent people from using knowledge gained out-of-character in-character runs into all sorts of difficulties in actual games. Several of the people I play with refuse to talk about games out-of-character for fear of learning things that their character doesn't know, because it's too hard to play knowing the context t
Megabyte, you closed the thread. You fiend. Of course your reasoning is quite correct.
This statement is the lol.
When TOP entered, everyone in Purple was doing what we wanted to. Our large nations were operating with no defensive wars all over the place.
TOP changed all that.
If it hadn't been for their intervention, the peace terms I would have been going for would have been white peace for Orion. The rest of the Invicta-NebX-Orion peace deal would not have happened.
And yes, that's ri
