DECLARATION OF WAR

=LOST=
(LEAGUE OF SHADOWS TREATY)


It is a dark time, my friends…those of you that we can call friends. As we look out across the plains of Planet Bob, piled high are the carcasses of our fallen soldiers, stabbed so brutally in the back. Those that would once reach out hands in friendship, now stain their hands with our blood and revel in the heat this blood brings to their cold skin.

Long have we watched, as the different factions choose sides. While the weak continue to flock to those perceived as the stronger, circling like cadaverous vultures, striking at those that hold the true strength in this world. We, the members of =LOST=, view this act of shameful aggression for what it truly is: A veiled attempt by jealous factions to steal power and cut the upper branches of our mighty tree so that they, the unworthy low shrubs and moss, might taste the sun that our canopy enjoys.

=LOST=, the League of Shadows Treaty, while few in number, condemn this coalition of aggressive bandwagon jumpers, and we shall use our forces to stab into the cold hearts of our enemies. It is with great honor that we activate our MADP with the righteous Mushroom Kingdom and their noble allies, by declaring war on the New Polar Order.

Our only regret is that we can not rip from your rotting corpse more putrid limbs than what you already possess. The cowardice that seeps from your growing ranks festers like an open wound on the flesh of our planet. We gladly join this battle to cull the weak from the herd. The scars we gain through victory in this war will proudly be displayed as badges of honor among our true friends.

Onward, =LOST= warriors, to victory!

Signed
General Vengeance
Emperor of =LOST=

Johnny No Legs
Vice Chancellor of =LOST= and Minister of Internal Affairs

Grugbug
Minister of War

Barron Von Hammer
Minister of Intelligence

Oberfurher Stevens
Minister of Foreign Affairs

Sinister Minister
Minister of Public Relations

Several FAN DoWs (Operation Overlord and VietFAN particularly) were good as I recall, but I can't be bothered trawling the documents to find them.

Operation Overlord in FAN-NOV war is the best declaration ever in my opinion.

Dear FAN,

When did you decide that it was a good idea to try to overthrow NPO without calling us first? Maybe if you'd been a bit more circumspect and a bit less gloryseeking you could have come to your excellent friends the GOONS and we could have betrayed our Pacifican overlords together. I mean, if we went, it wouldn't have been just us; we have a bunch of satellite alliances we could have brought to the fight, like Genmay. I mean, the invincible warriors of FAN could cripple the top ranks of the NPO without any serious effort, but without the critical low-end support your larger nations are going to get surrounded and obliterated by the mindless Pacifican herd. Since you've closed all your communications channels, we haven't been able to co-ordinate a synchronized betrayal, so the only option have left is to continue toiling as the NPO's wretched servants. Now we're going to have to wait for Polar or GGA to come up in the rankings before we have another opportunity to launch a surprise coup again.
Yours in Christ,
The GOONS

P.S. With much love: http://cngoons.googlepages.com/jihadibear.gif

The video versions of the FAN announcements done by Arcades are pretty funny.

It was too epic for a small war, but it looked so cool.

A boot stamping on Legion's face...forever! :lol:

This was an individual declaration. This was just a suicide march into a bunch of nuke nations, may as well have fun with it.

Ah, finally found it.

Maybe it's arrogance, but I've always liked this. Maybe it's because of the almost universal support in the replies, in large part from people would in the following months switch to condemning Vox and supporting the Continuum, and then go full circle come April. Either way, I always find it enjoyable to, on occasion, take a walk down memory lane and read that thread over again.

What hath Hell wrought that no man should stand and gape at the horrors unleashed lest he be driven to madness; clawing eyes, rending clothes, shrieking insanity? I say to you, it is we. From the screams for mercy, for the laments of those lost, to the cries for respite...where seeks one shelter and splendid silence and succor for the soul from these? I say unto you, no such place shall be found. Touched by the hand of wrath, drawn close to the bossom of vengence and having lain on the plank of nails called anger for so long, =LOST= summons its duty, its strength, its bloodlust and its malice and declares war on GGA.

We bring to you the tortured souls of past transgressions mounted on steeds of burning fury. We will deliver you into the dark, fetid tombs of your complacense. Ye shall know only the warmth of sackcloth and shall feast on but ashes and salt henceforth. You're end is nigh. Hearlded by booming drum, screaming trumpet, wailing woman and crying child. Meet your end tall, for from memory, from history, from existence, you will be erased. Consumed by fire and trapped in the grey world of eternal unrest.
You will know fear.
You will know pain.
And then, you will know death.
You will know =LOST=.


Wargarden: Emperor of =LOST=

The writhing masses scrape and claw, climbing over one another, doused in the blood of their former friends and allies all hoping for the momentary favor of their master. They allow themselves to be blindly led, force themselves to believe that they will be different, that they are the truly loved, the favorite sons and daughters.

Bob is a barren wasteland of misery and cowardice. The well of honor has all but run dry. Momentary wisps of honor remain but quickly vanish, sad reminders of a past forgotten. They are the ghosts of the few souls who dared stand and believe in something bigger than themselves, who dared believe in something beyond their infrastructure.

One of the last bastions of decency and individual, the Mushroom Kingdom, is under siege. It is with great pride I activate our oldest treaty tonight, our MDAP with Mushroom Kingdom. Forsaking all else, we defend them tonight, to whatever end.

We strike at the very heart of the beast, =LOST= declares war on the New Pacific Order.

We fight and we die because we cannot bear to watch our friends and brothers in Mushroom Kingdom stand alone, and to remind the few honest people left in this world that all hope is not yet =LOST=.

To NPO: We salute you, prepare to fight

To the inevitable bandwagoners who will DoW us: We laugh at and pity you (do you really believe they need you? You have no honor)

To MK: Now and forever, we fight beside you

To TPF: We figured you wouldn't want to fight alone so we're bringin in your friends

Operation Overlord
Re: Operation Overlord
FAN Response to VietFAN

For Bob


mpol memorial thread

That is most of FANs announcements with mpol

Gremlins entry into GW3 was pretty epic, too. Unfortunately, our DoW in the Karma war sucked.

The GOONS declaration of war against FAN in FAN-WUT war is pretty amazing too because of what happened with GOONS after in UJW.

I am kinda sad that no one mentioned UCN's DoW on ODN in the Karma war. http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=55348

It was a relatively annoying and bad attempt at humor.

Maybe it's arrogance, but I've always liked this. Maybe it's because of the almost universal support in the replies, in large part from people would in the following months switch to condemning Vox and supporting the Continuum, and then go full circle come April.
