Ivan Moldavi Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 5 hours ago, Mogar said: If you are talking of the first great war, then it was simply their size compared to other alliances, they were the biggest on the block by a decent margin, if you are talking of later on it was Moo and other leaders who eventually formed the coalition of cowards steadfast belief that they could not be betrayed into a losing battle that caused Pacifica to get steamrolled. I agree with this summary. Several of the events that happened after GW1 ran contrary to my policies. Different Emperors had different agendas. Also, if Legion had honoured their treaty then GW1 may have gone differently. As it was, the aggressors were able to get a personal apology from me and nothing more. Hardly a steamroll.

Mogar Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 The dissonance between now and that era is that back then an apology would be worth it, where now you'd have to give up 2+ years of tech to make the war "worth it". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and Vol Navy seem to be the only ones in TPF declaring max wars whenever you get the opportunity, so Kudos for that. After almost a year of constant war and little else going on, people's interest and warchests, among other things get hard to maintain for many. I have to say it's been fun to just fight and not worry about there being nothing more than a curbstomp once in a blue moon passing as something interesting.

Haflinger Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 18 hours ago, Lord Hitchcock said: My history is funny here, so forgive me if I'm incorrect, wasn't it your doctrine that caused Pacifica to get steam rolled? Not really. The Moldavi Doctrine, and its followup the Revenge Doctrine, were both objected to and forcibly cancelled by Karma, yes. However, honestly Revenge was a bigger deal than the Moldavi Doctrine. (For the uninitiated - the Moldavi Doctrine laid claim to Red by NPO. No other alliances were allowed to form on Red. The Revenge Doctrine forbade tech raiding against any nation on Red. Both were named after the NPO Emperors that instituted them, although Trotsky's Revenge is better known as Moo.) Neither were nearly as important as the desire of C&G for revenge, along with the support of Citadel and Superfriends and their associated alliances, all of which were concerned that NPO was plotting against them. (It wasn't, but it did make a series of terrible mistakes which could easily lead a sensible person lacking insider information to that conclusion.)

smurthwaite Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 I just awoke from a slumber. I don't know what the hell is going on, but Ivan, with whom I have never had any real conversation, declared war for NSO on Legion and then Joe declared NSO going out by hitting a sanctioned nation, the RV said they weren't going anywhere. So, I hereby declare that I may choose to protect the NSO and the NSO AA at some point between now and forever. That is all. Return to your plebeian existence.

They have a long history and are still here as an alliance. It is something they and the other old and well established alliance on Planet Bob can be proud of.

Our nations are growing? I thought we were fighting to the bottom. I thought we were doing so well in our endeavour to deplete ourselves. 'Going well' would imply an agenda beyond just fighting to destroy pixels - we're having fun on our way. So yes, 'going well' ..
