    It's not just about entertainment, but about profit. There wouldn't be much profit in attacking an alliance our size, so there wouldn't be any point to tech raiding them.

    You profit until you hit around 15k. Then people start retaliating. Past 25-30k you got people with nukes who we all know will use them. Profit is gone. One tech raid gone wrong and your back to where you started. With the most likely scenario that you could have grown your nation faster without tech raiding. I never tech raided once and I'm not doing so bad.

    I really wish the "anti-raiders" would make up their mind on the bolded points. It honestly does confuse me.

    "Pick on someone your own size." Yes tech raid an alliance of comparable size to your own and make things interesting. Not the micro alliances who have option 1 take their beating and run away when your finished or option 2 fight back and be crushed. I don't understand how tech raiding people like that can possibly be entertaining. To each his own though.

    Oh, I see you don't understand the situation but somehow have formed a biased opinion on it!

    Congratulations!

    U.S.S.R. was a raid target, one of the members was raided and he retaliated, which is fine. Typically we let the person who provoked the counter-attack deal with their own problems.

    The problem started when U.S.S.R. randomly attacked non offending nations. Which again is a choice they made and the response was to make sure they learned a lesson from it.

    Anything else I can catch you up on before you spout uneducated nonsense?

    Oh, I see you don't understand that if your pack of bullies didn't go attacking small micro alliances that can't defend themselves properly then we wouldn't need to even be having this conversation right now. This goes for those clowns in \m/ as well. You guys start the fights and the problems. Like I said before, pick on someone your own size and then I will be impressed. Until then your just the same old bullies picking on the weak that we know. Someone has to fill that role though. I'm sure eventually you guys will get what is coming to you. Until then enjoy the tech raiding of the baby nations.

  4. Thats not at all what he is saying. Hes saying that these alliances are known, throughout their existence, for being God awful at war and incompetent on the battle field. Because they are. Stop the spin whenever you like though.

    God dammit you beat me to it again. :(

    Interesting how an alliance such as TFD can win 2 tournaments in TE and still be considered "God awful" at war. What does someone need to do to get some respect around here? If the answer is beat yourself down in a war just let me know and I will be happy to on my way down (Your nation is almost twice as old as mine. I have almost 4x your tech level.) You really sound like someone I want to take advice from lol.

  5. Yeah sorry about that, I was one of his attackers roflmao. His SDI blocked my first nuke and hten he bribed me not to try again :lol1: .

    Now we both know I didn't bribe you. I told you to wait because the current #1 guy was definitely slot filling and we both didn't want him to win. By the time he got deleted you were out of the top 5% and couldn't buy nukes anymore. Not my fault. You received nothing from me so don't try and make it sound like I gave you something in return. Lets at least say what actually happened.

  6. It's a lot easier to stop infra hugging in established alliances by simply having war. MHA would have gone to war with TPF had we not gone against OP (head on might I add, we took a comparable amount of damage as LE did) and then get sidewiped by OB/SWAT as we were rebuilding to somewhat respectable levels (What alliance that gets decimated has time to rebuild a real war's chest a few days after getting out of anarchy?)

    It's the small AA's that hide away and save their infra all round which are the huggers.

    And yes, it is a vicious cycle, one which won't stop but can be lightened if we stop seeing alliances protecting many many other alliances. TPF and RE are the main culprits here, still clinging to old ways of holding plenty of protectorates and MDoAPs and secret pacts, etc. Which is why I challenge BG to stick to his word and hold a respectable amount of treaties, and to conglomerate those protectorates or drop them to maybe have 1 or 2 TOPS. Tiberius needs to prove he's a leader even though I still don't trust him being back at the helm.

    If both of Tibs and BG change RE/TPF towards loosening the reigns on the protection they give, we'll see less hidden alliances with infra huggers surviving until now, popping out and build blitzing everyone because they will be hunted down freely or they will have gotten into some war like the old TE days and it would involve the most cunning player in terms of both nation building AND fighting,

    Want an example of such a player? Definitely not you, I've got you pinned with a thousand less infra. It would be NeoGondor. Never liked him being #1, but he's got skill, he kept #1 admist full round wars. Sure he never won because ~40 days of warfare will take a toll on anyone, but he played TE like how it was meant to be, warefare and building hybridized.

    You guys at TFD have nothing left to win, yet you still hamper the game down as much as RE/TPF do with their treaty web. Stop building all round, get involved in a mid-round war and prove why you had the name The Fightin Division when all you did was cower the last two rounds.

    This also goes out to every alliance out there, because ya know what I saw? I saw 3 specific alliances, somewhat a 4th who all sat on their rears while the rest of TE fought. RE, TPF, CTA and MK/TFD. TPF did have the trouble war early on, it was a curb stomp but it was somewhat of a war. RE did curb stomp RD a good bit, but peace pretty quickly. CTA... uh you stopped SWAT? MK/TFD made a lovely rogue target for sure. And yet, at the end of the day, most of yall have the strongest nations not by skill but by sitting around the most. Please don't bring up the most recent warring, I've ignored that in this post.

    We sat around just like many many other alliances. It just happens we are better builders then most. You don't notice the others because they don't build as well as us. If our NS was 5k and we just built like idiots you would have nothing to say. However, all of my alliance know how to build as well as the best around. Neo is very good I agree. But if you looked at his casualties before he was attacked you would have seen he did not do much warring either. And to say we have nothing left to win; did you ever think that we want to win just for the challenge of it? Winning is not easy. It is a challenge to win and one that when accomplished you should be proud of. I can build nukes and drop them every single round no problem. However, getting to the #1 position is where the real skill lies. We will continue to strive for that goal. The flag is not what matters anymore. The challenge of being the best is what really matters. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But you can be assured that we will give the fellow TE members a challenge every single round for the flag.

    And on my losing of 1k infra. I declared on 3 other of the largest nations. I am in a total of 5 wars. 3 being offensive. Obviously you don't declare 3 offensive wars with guys with nukes if you plan on winning. I know you are more intelligent than that.

  7. ~ TL;DR Quit protecting your friends and let the infra huggers be mugged.

    You do realize that anyone who has made it to the top is infra huggers? Those in TPF, CTA, etc who were ranked up the top were there because they did not go into war. Swestburg from TPF was always up the top and even when TPF and Ordo are fighting he wasn't engaged in a war. If you want to actually win you can't be involved in major wars. Everyone knows that. Infra huggers in return build more infra huggers. It is a vicious cycle.

    I am Dragonslayer. What are you guys possibly complaining about? As far as my old post. I planned to take the round off. However, building a nation in TE is easy and I have to check it only every few days. Something that no matter how busy you are you can make time for. Check your facts before you make stupid comments.

    I know most of you have never heard of me. I am also known as General Raam of LastDitchEffort. I am making this post to give a congratulations to my friends and fellow members that made my win possible.

    Round 7-

    Divisioners, you guys did awesome. Canuck, PJS, Lusitan, gpn777, tgsx, MrAnderson, Parasite, Koala, Tag, Viper, Herbert and anyone else I may have missed. Without you guys our victory would not have been possible. You did everything I asked of you and more. It was an honor fighting and leading all of you in battle. A general could not ask for a better group of soldiers. I thank all of you for your hard work and loyalty to the cause.

    To all the other TE participants. Here is the story of The Fightin Division. In round 6 we started with a large target on our back. We played to win, but at the end to many people knew us. We were defeated by the rogues by the time the round was over. This round I decided to try something different. Knowing the target would still be on our back, I decided to split The Fightin Division membership up. The new alliance we created would be known as The 40 Sippin Panty Grippen Gangstas. Thats correct. The Fightin Division and The 40 Sippin Panty Grippen Gangstas were the exact same alliance. My "minions" as they have been called took down the main competition 1 by 1. All in silence. All without ever being detected. Hypertechnologies and SameOldNation you guys did great for the majority of the round. The "rogue" you received was compliments of me. TE my friends is not only a game of nation building. Strategy is equally if not more important in TE. To those who plan on winning in the future my words of wisdom to you are this. Think outside the box. I don't care if you are the greatest builder around. Without taking into account strategy you will never win a round. Neogandolf is a perfect example of this. An absolute amazing builder. Better than myself no doubt. However, he lacked the dedicated troops around him to make his victory possible. Remember, having a large alliance is not always a benefit. Being in the spot light does not get you a flag. If you want to win a tournament you will not do it alone. Teamwork is the key.

    Special shoutout to Burning Glory. Your a good guy BG. We appreciate all you did for us behind the scenes. I am sure in the future we will get together again.

    Shoutout to toasty toast of the alliance UJA as well. Toasty, here is a link just for you. Also, next time you send a rogue on someone make sure that they do their job.

    A sad song to accompany the complaining

    Round 8-

    The Fightin Division and The 40 Sippen Panty Grippin Gangstas are hereby disbanding. We have accomplished our goals. TFD now has a peace and war flag now uploaded. We are the first alliance to have a war flag uploaded. We had a good time these past few rounds. In round 8 some of our previous members will be joining different alliances to have fun with the rest of you.

    Our custom flags are now 61 (Peace time) and 64 (War time).

    Good luck to all of you in round 8. I personally will be taking the round off. Have fun guys.
