Heracles the Great

Well played Sir Paul, Well Played...

You guys didn't even wait for me to be on when you made this announcement Now let's go put these "stats" to good use...

You mean the select few that do it like PC, NEW, Kronos, etc? If you do it properly (basically follow the guidelines I gave) it's profitable.

So it's seperate treaties, not a bloc?

I believe the poker axium comes into play here... "It's immoral to let a sucker keep his money." - Canada Bill Jones But the morality of tech raiding isn't in question here - you tried to claim it wasn't profitable - I'm living proof that it is

You do konw that if 4 nations are fighting you, you can still only be nuked once per day, right?

Or you could do both and make ~1,000 tech a month more

You have inspired me to research this ancient theme and I do appreciate it. My squire was able to re-create what those before us once called a Nintendo Entertainment System and I have no had the luxury of enjoying this great game known as Mario Brothers - I send my many thanks to you and your alliance for blessing me with this gift of knowledge [ooc]I busted out the ol' NES from the closet and cranked up Mario[/ooc]

Congrats OMFG - It comes as no surprise that you are finally able to conquer this giant only after you harness the power of time - may you continue to grow and prosper

Says the guy with no harbor... Seriously? I would have to eat quite a few nukes to destroy half the profit I've made off of tech raiding

I thought GR was the NAAC in disguise...

Took a while, but we finally pulled it off

That, my good friend, is quite easy to answer. Invicta can see the many war-hungry alliances hiding behidn SLCB waiting for Invicta to attack so they can jump in and destroy them... as can the rest of us.

You're kidding right? The nation of AncientGreece is 70k and can do 6m in damage in one attack... please don't mock the intelligence of the members of this community

Well this has been an interesting evening...

Just to give you an idea - Prior to Karma I was only up to 50k NS, had never raided, and was very limited in my growth. During Karma I dropped to about 20k NS and while I had a solid warchest afterwards, it wasn't that which put me up to 70k NS as much as it's been raiding. To have a 150+ efficiency after losing more than half your NS is thanks to raiding. As for how the targets are, they are far slimmer the higher up you get, but I still find some here and there. Most of my targets are in unprotected micros - 5-15 man alliances typically.

Congrats on this promotion - a great move

Like war ever comes without a good 3 month warning.... You're better off growing as fast as you can and then building a war chest when war is on the horizon

As long as you have 20x bills to cover a b/c you're fine

You're trying to tell me raiding in CN:SE isn't worth the "hassle" zzzptm?

I come before you today to announce that Kronos has completed it's 7th election and Vesalius has been chosen to represent the alliance as it's newest Harbinger of Light. I'd also like to publicly thank Lazarus Long for his time and effort as he served as our Harbinger of Prosperity up until a week ago before stepping down. He has been replaced by Porkers who will serve us going forward, and has his work cut out for him. The Government of Kronos: Harbingers of Light (FA): Heracles the Great Epiphanus Vesalius Harbinger of Prosperity (IA): Porkers Harbinger of War (D): Masterof9Puppets I'd also like to take a moment to announce that since our inception, several amendments have been made to the original Charter. Our latest and most up to date version of our Charter can be found here along with a current list of our treaty partners and government officials.

Dang it Rupert, you beat me to it

Fantastic announcement Archon - Well done... I do expect MK will be working on it's ability to leak logs as your lack of doing so thus far has proven quite disappointing. o/ Trevor o/ Potato o/ Free Speech

Are you sure you'll actually do more in damage than you'll give up to them? Something tells me you won't... o/ TSO

The bond you two gentlemen share is matched by few
