Boo. I'm a ghost. But shall I rise again riding magic dragons into the fray?

This treaty existed for a long time. I remember when =LOST= signed a treaty with GOONS way back when I was Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs of the League of Shadows Treaty. That was back in October 2009 and the treaty announcement can be found here. Yesitsbobby did nearly all the work on our end. But over the years and even into my years in The Last Remnants, GOONS and especially Sardonic became one of our closest allies. I am in no position to comment on the current state of TLR politics as I am practically retired at this point. But I hope the TLR triumvirs made a right and courageous decision go against so many years of tradition. o/ GOONS o/TLR o/=LOST= o/ CNG

Does this mean GDA is not part of Equilibrium? If so, you may send your surrender terms directly to the New Vegas Complaints and Grievance Annex at the Three Dragons Hotel, Casino, Brothel, and Government Offices.

While I too, like Rush, do not agree with the target choice here, my long time friendship with Deinos allows me the benefit of knowing that Deinos chose this reasonable action thoughtfully--to answer the call to arms from an ally. I wish this conflict between our allies to come to a swift resolution with as little pain as possible.

allarchonu akbar!

Equilibrium's Epic Failure War

So basically what I'm getting from NEW is that they are admittedly awful allies. That's just a beautiful sentiment. But getting back to the topic at hand, TLR is my home and boy oh boy how much I love my allies. Good luck Sparta, Polar, and the other refuse piled upon us.

I have never said once anywhere that I liked what UMB did nor would I try to influence TLR policy into following their lead, but attacking a specific nation for specific reasons following a specific policy is surely different than the mass direct attack perpetrated by LSF and the alliance-wide aiding of an alliance at war like NEW.

I love it when people not in CnG tell us what CnG said to each other in our government to government channels. Has any alliance in CnG ever been threatened with expulsion? Never. CnG bickers and comes to a decision that is best for the bloc. Always. That's why we're a bloc and a bloc that's still around. LSF went rogue like idiot terrorists and all you guys wanted was for INT and CnG to strap on the suicide vests. NEW did the same thing. CnG does not support the actions of idiot terrorists who intentionally put us at risk for no valid reason. If your ally all of a sudden declared war on any alliance for no reason other than to get some kicks off, would you follow like a lemming off a cliff or would you think about the merits of optional aggression clauses? That's what the LSF situation was when you boil it down.

You know Dajobo, I think TLR and NpO are in agreement that an attack on an ally means that the alliance in question is required to come to that ally's defense. But TLR and its allies all agree that it is our joint responsibility to provide for the *best* defense of each other using strategy rather than going off half cocked.

Who? What? Huh?

"The Last Remnants." tLR is "the Last Republic." Because we say so.

It's TLR, thank you very much. And it's only because we are so scared of the Spartan masses. Woe to the Remnants and their soaked underpants!

My congratulations to the TLR Foreign Relations staff for picking the greatest set of allies in the world.

GATO, you make CnG proud.
