There's that little problem where the preemptive attack backfires. Then what?

I laughed extremely hard when I read this. BRILLIANT political move. o/ C&G

This. All parties involved will be seeing more combat soon, I guarantee you. Also, glad to see this trainwreck end sensibly.

You really don't seem to know what side of the war we're on, Moo. GR wasn't even in this until YOUR allies hit us for no apparent reason.

It's actually directly written in the Harmlin Accords. This is a supremacy clause if I've ever seen one: o/ Harmlins

Friends without treaties > treaties without friends. o/ Harmlins

I don't see how ANY treaty chain got you to declare on us. Whatever. Goodbye IRON.

At some point, you're going to raid GPA and realize that that was a terrible mistake. Good luck hanging onto your delusion that most people on your "side" are fighting on your behalf. You really need to realize that whatever the outcome of this war, YOU LOSE.

This seems happy. o/ Vanguard

This doesn't describe the situation with \m/ and NpO. However, it does sound like what \m/ did to FoA to get this whole ball rolling. EDIT: can't spell at night.

Even if the message is legit, Marcus Brutus isn't WF gov, so he can't offer peace for them. So the offer is void. Got it?

I'm sure PZI is acceptable for a rogue attack. Talk to me when you get rid of the P from the sentence. Edit: Never mind, looks like you did.

No, based on what I hear a more likely timeline is like this: Grub goes to \m/ about their tech-raiding policy \m/embers make off-color remarks about Grub Grub is offended, and thus sees \m/ negotiating in bad faith Grub leaves and gets Polaris ready for war The entire discussion about what's offensive and what's not is pretty moot. It's just a stupid idea to do anything possibly offensive around someone who isn't a friend.

Not sure why you would tech-raid ANY established alliance, but ok, have it your way.

No, it really isn't. The blocs in the next war formed well after this treaty, and for that matter most treaties were signed. Strong allies stick with their friends in wartime. The alternative is ignoring half your treaties, which makes you look like a jerk, or sitting out the war in neutrality, which IMO still makes you look like a jerk. Regardless, sad to see old bonds unfurled. Good luck to both parties.

Oh hai there Arsenal. Whoops.

Dunno what you're talking about Drai, you're still Minister of Trains. o/ GR

We aim to please. o/ C&G

While I agree with the sentiment, don't try to hide that you declared many hours before the peace deal. I'm not going to hail a common rogue like you.

Looks like you people missed this: Good luck to you sir.

Well I just got an offer from him. Thanks for confirming my suspicions. B)

Today is an excellent day. To great friends! (Especially ones armed to the teeth. ) o/ MK o/ NpO

This is the start of something wonderful. o/ NpO o/ IAA

I believe Hell Scream answered why we have a DoS and not a DoW.

No, I'm pretty sure white has a slight advantage in chess. Try chicken instead for an analogy.
