It took a couple hours, but I finally added all the combatants on the NPO front, using the available nation strength stats. There are still a few gaps, mainly because Unspeakable Evil stopped updating his thread in the beginning of March and I did not start making this until early April.
The losses page for both sides should speak for itself, let me know if you have any issues.
The MK Side line graph has a couple alliances that are the same color. I tried fiddling with it for about 30

Added table of all alliances engaged, their starting NS on their day of declaration, current NS, and the percentage lost. A couple of the smaller alliances I couldn't get stats for because they weren't big enough for UE to track. There is an error with the NPO's side's NS, because I used the 1/24 numbers instead of the actual date they DoW'd. I'll fix it later.

I have compiled nation strength stats for NPO front using UE's stat thread and lately the charts ingame since he stopped updating a few weeks ago. The graph is publicly visible here:

A couple of notes-
1. The NS stats are 1/10000 scale.
2. I stopped tracking GOONS on the 26th of January when our allies hit.
3. Most of the fighting fell out of Umbrella's range after the firs
Besides the excess of "flamboyant tough boy" roleplaying going on at the OWF, a couple of other things have been bothering me.
1. You should all thank me and my passive aggressiveness because it is much much less irritating than another tough guy routine.
2. Every single one of us is a hypocrite. If you deny it, you're a bigger hypocrite than the rest of us. Stop. Posting. About. Hypocrisy.
3. We all like to post about historical events as an "this proves your argument is invalid!" card,
On the eve of another nuclear exchange, we find ourselves facing how absolutely boring warfare has become in game. The outcome is already decided; NEW will do “x” amount of damage depending on: how much cash they are sitting on, target selection, and wonder/nuke nation strength tiers. If any of NEWs other allies hope in, it will be the same, just on a larger scale. I noted the stats last night, but I’m not even going to bother looking at them again for 8 more hours when nukes start to fly. Conve
With final exams coming to a close and with only myself remaining as the lone contributor to GRL*, I remembered that I tried to get into this blog !@#$ and failed miserably. So here you go: I'll type something and then I'll disappear again for a couple months. Why the hell does anyone read a blog about a browser game anyway...but I hope I can make mine oh so edgy like the others.

This blog feature seems to be alright and I'm a firm advocate of keeping the clutter on the forums down to a manageable level. I'm planning on making a CN related entry every Saturday and dabbling in other things relating to the real world on Wednesdays.
So I lost interest in the war. It was probably the biggest strategic and tactical failure in the history of CN. I'll cover that next week as to why I think so. All this fuss did get me reading the forums again. It eventually occurred to me t
