Haha good to see you old friend and not too long ago I was trying to track you down. The round just started and Bundy already has 3k tech so with a wrc he can ZI with a single nuke. lol

Defcon 1 are drinking ale in the halls of Valhalla.

I'm assuming its like SE and there are 6 aid slots? So 300m every 15 days you could potentially pump into a single nation. Even if there were only one round of aid slots that'd give them a huge advantage. Now whoever can pump the most aid into someone wins the game making most of the games tactics and team play redundant. This is what made this game truly fun for those of us who played this game like a chess game. Rerollling can be an vital part of the game especially for newbies who bill lock. You're trying to solve one problem and inadvertently creating another.

Still after years of no updates I don't mind seeing this just to change it up after all its been repetitive and quite stale for years.

A blind man could see it was a bad idea a mile away, 50m and 2.5k tech still breaks the game if anyone actually tries to take full advantage of this. There were so many good ideas proposed over the years that weren't even tested but one of the worst ideas ever suggested is implemented. lol

dude he's just not into u anymore

This generation of players don't even care about retaining players and you want more perks. Don't abuse veterans and new players and expect special treatment.

What did OP do to earn my admiration? lol All you did was survive and survive you did, like a UFC fighter who only takes safe fights. In our final rounds a lot of SE players joined TE to challenge D1 and we loved to see it but we knew they were going to discard every te norm to win and that they did. We were fighting top dogs for +5years and loved challenging ourselves with up-declares. We were very close to retiring, in fact I called for it the round before due to time restraints. D1 was getting tired and weary so that kind of dirty gameplay was the final straw that broke the camels back for us, they made it easy for us to hang it up. But all of us are still tight brothers today because of everything we experienced together and I'll forever be grateful to this game for that.

I mostly observed TE last round and I think some of the current players are mostly gaming the award system to gain an advantage in SE whether intended or not. For example Ordo Paradoxia split their alliance and form New Paradoxical Order last round and both would cooperate to win mdw, most land, and you could make an argument for most soldiers killed and most infra lost. Wes never denied both didn't share resources or OPSEC channels so I think if you did share these then its this type of collusion that damages the game even if your hand is forced to try to create competition. The other problem with the game isn't admins lack of dangling more carrots for SE players, its that you've abused veterans and noobies alike and created an environment where many don't want to play TE anymore. We use to respect other players and allow a grace period for the defeated to recover but now its a free for all while many turn a blind eye and veterans/noobies are bullied out of the game. Create a fun and competitive game if you want new players joining. Anyway thats my 2 cents I probably wont sign in again for awhile so if I don't respond you know why.

Old post but hi Sot Long-term strike teams were probably more exclusive to D1 and probably why this thread didn't get any responses but mine would be the "flat like a tennis court" crew that consisted of Alexandros, Hagdang Bato and Son of Taper. This crew won wars for D1 at the blitzs countless times. Anyway just stopping by to say hello!

Do you own nukes?

No one cares

Then tell RR to keep his TE grudges from SE.

My error, i meant NpO* and you attacked D1 nations that didn’t trade with you so it was never about trades. You just wanted to get revenge for D1 crushing you in TE. You took it far too personal for a game that resets every 3 months and still do. Did you know in SE if you attack a protectorate usually the protector gets involved? And NPO told us you had exhausted all diplomacy with them and so the only option left was your destruction. That of course had nothing to do with us and was never our intention, everyone only wanted you to back off. We didn’t want to see you get pushed from the game so I gave you an opportunity to deescalate and I knew you’d take it. Do I regret saving your dumb ass? Nope. D1 has never supported people getting pushed from the game regardless of their actions or words.

You are still trying to justify your massive down-declare but the figures don't support your deluded theory, you can spin it as much as you want though. No point arguing with ignorance.

We dropped our NDO trade circle due to us forming our own alliance and trade circle but claiming it was to spite you is a lie and it was only used as your excuse to try exact revenge for us destroying you on TE. Even NPO asked why would anyone declare war on an entire alliance just because they dropped a couple of trades. lol Two years later and you're still peddling your bs.

You getting moderated for a ToS breach has nothing to do with me if you're in violation, those are your actions not mine but are you really upset over getting a warning from a moderator a few years ago? Poor snowflake lol You took your beef to SE because you were getting rolled by us in TE and you thought you could get your revenge in SE. Try not to rewrite history again. Only salty sweats pursue sanction wars and we could've jumped on black and did the same to AW but we're not salty sweats. You also had the members to sanction us on day 5 so we'd have been forced off anyway. The difference is you settled on 24 tech and not 30. Show us all the guides AW and RE are using then we can put this to sleep. AW had all our guides and were actively using them, Tehol infiltrated our alliance a few rounds ago and got our updated versions. Lets see our own guides?

Why would we want your fake peace? There’ll be no peace for you.

No one in D1 gives a damn what you think. Lol You have always been disliked in D1 for cowering behind the protection of others when it protected you from us. You’d still be a member of Aw if you didn’t get pummelled by us all the time.

24 tech wasn’t standard, are you serious? Most major alliances had their own starting tech level and I still have all the guides of all the alliances i was in to prove it. Why do you constantly make up lies? Lol

If you want to encourage people to stay then help create a healthy game environment and balance but instead you’re all on the same side. Your one sided bully tactics only push people from the game and pretending we’ve been bullies is hilarious when majority of the time we’ve fought bigger alliances and fair wars were also pursued unless they had wronged us. D1 is only hated for being good at the game and there is no other reason. D1 sure as hell doesn’t need to stick around for all the toxicity but prove us wrong that you can build a fun environment for everyone, I highly doubt it judging these actions. Most of you are disgruntled former players who got rolled one too many times and you’ve finally found your calling to return but the game is on its last legs. You’re 3 years too late.

I did hear Bats is bringing the heat with all his Filipino mates. Lol He’s one of the best to ever play the game and also a TPC legend to boot so good luck to him.

SUN? I was a member. 😉 You can claim you’ve done what D1 but you could never prove it because the reality is it simply doesn’t compare. You can’t have accomplished much in your two year head start and RE under Mittens has been relatively quiet these past few years. D1 use to dance a lot with RE under Staccs but it never really accomplished much. The game died a long time ago, there are only grudges to pursue now and most if not all of D1 will finish when i do so your game will be truly dead when that happens. No one in D1 is here for all your tantrums and drama.

I am aware RE existed before my time and I am also aware a few faces from back then have returned. There are no longer any rules so I am also aware this was was never intended to be fair, i only find it amusing this side would brag over winning a war they shouldn’t lose. I never said anyone else used our tactics.

The attacks on AW are pre-emptive as we figured they’d tail in on our war and we didn’t ignore any threat, RE is double our size and attacked right out of the gate so we defended. This little fantasy world you live in sure doesn’t correlate with reality.
