  1. Oh hello. So sorry if this took a while, but I've been a bit busy..

     

     

    According to article 4 of the Plan B Accords, TOP managed to declare on TIO when it declared on NATO.. even if they tried to avoid us for some reason.

     

    TIO hereby acknowledges TOP's declaration of war.

     

    TIO also hates R&R for filling Skippy's slots >.>

     

    PS: I'm sorry if you don't find many targets TOP. We have been taking a look into your peace mode strategy.. so far, it's quite boring :/ You should bring out your nations to play with and I'll bring out mine ;)

    As Bcortell has aptly pointed out;

    Article IV: Us against them

    In the event of a declaration of war against a signatory, all other signatories will consider themselves at war with the aggressor, and the defense of the attacked alliance will take priority above any external military commitment.

    No. 

     

    The fact that you have a mandatory defense clause does not mean we declared war on you. It means *you* are declaring war on us, albeit automatically. This "an attack on one is an attack on all" idiocy needs to cease. 

  2. Finally, there is a true existential threat to bring to light just how petty our political squabbles are. However, I don't think the world has what it takes to stand up to DBDC. Divided, it will fall.

    To be honest, most of us are already in other wars / wouldn't care too much about DBDC's raids.

     

    OOC: Even if people fought back, for the very large nations, it'd be a pointless endeavour. They are too big to fall. The game was never designed for such massive nations. It'd take years to take down a nation with over 30k tech. Also, the only other alliance with that concentration of very large nations is OBR. And I doubt they'll move.

  3. Why would our coalition need to sow something that already exists?

     

    Current alignment of interests will end soon, and current short term interests will give way to new ones. Perhaps, this is just Hereno driving through his point from previous rather then an action of a coalition side where some dont even acknowledge their belonging to it. 

    Or it won't and we will stomp the same people for years.

    Who knows.

     

    I find it absolutely delicious that we have a thread about us keeping tech farms in peace mode. Heck, even a few of us tech farms decided to fight.

  4. Damage is, NS isn't, you should be ashamed :|

    Not really. I haven't seen the NS stats from before the war but it's normal for an outnumbered enemy (up to an extent) to do more damage, now that everybody is pretty much nuclear. If I'm facing two opponents and I'm their only target, odds are I will do more damage to the two of them than they will do to me. Just because nukes can only be deployed once per day on a target and it does the largest ammount of damage.

     

    I didn't intend to turn this into a debate. I merely commented on the numbers provided. In terms of NS damage, this is the closest global war we've seen.

  5.  

    Didn't you guys just cancel a treaty with them in the last year? Maybe I am mistaken.

    We cancelled our treaty with OG during the eQ war (or at its end? not sure anymore), for various reasons, mostly linked to their inactivity. We offered our protection for an extra sixty days, given that we were their last treaty partner.

     

    However, since then, they have been more active and have signed a few treaties. Nice for them and nice to see they still have friends out there.

  6. Aside from STA (can't be bothered to check the entire history, though), all of the alliances commenting in this thread have entered wars on oAs in the past.

     

    I mean, TPF, are you really going to complain that someone is entering on an oA? What did you do during the eQ war? AI, NPO, IRON, TIO, NATO declared war on Umbrella. TOP declared war on AI. You then somehow proceeded to declare war on us. How? Via your oA with NATO, who was already chaining with others? Or are you going to claim that "an attack on one is an attack on all" and try to e-lawyer it as a defense of NATO? 

     

    You used a "coalition warfare" justification to get your attacks in (without actually explaining the treaty chains at any moment, tbh) during last war. Now, you're outraged that others are doing the same?

    Please.

  7. I know FAN. LoSS is no FAN. FAN at least manned up and said "we don't need no stinkin' treaties." LoSS... who had long time treaty ties to the losing side, wanted to be on the winning side.. and MADE UP a treaty that got them in.

    The result is the same.

     

    While FAN is now completly out of the spotlight, for a while, they had "friends" in various alliances. One could most definitely argue that keeping their real intentions as vague as possible was done for realpolitik reasons.

  8. I would love to see if you maintained that exact opinion if your coalition wasnt the beneficiary of the clearly moronic move by LOSS. Deep down, I know the answer. And you, my friend, try too hard.

    To be fair, his comment is right. People *did* approve of FAN's way of doing politics by acknowledging their entrance as legit, despite the lack of visible treaties.

     

    That said, I do think it's an incredibly retarded way of doing business and hope it doesn't become the norm.
