[quote name='Penlugue Solaris' timestamp='1325990877' post='2895304'] Yeah..mate having seen the warchest data you don't have a place to talk. [/quote] Huh, we had similar discussions about many of our opponents. WAPA in particular.

[quote name='Woref' timestamp='1325978015' post='2895129'] WAPA is both smaller than the two AZTEC alliances and until recently was fighting the most enemies... so it kind of makes sense you'd see us the least. I also notice that 4 of your top 5 are in PM and 2 haven't fought any battles; I think they're the party poopers . [/quote]No worries mate, I'll join the party again soon enough, simply taking a short break to stock up on nukes. See y'all soon.

[quote name='Wishywashy' timestamp='1325812491' post='2893609'] Wayne, if we allow any of you to escape anarchy it's only to trick you into attacking us. [/quote]I chuckled at the Gretzky referance.

[quote name='Auctor' timestamp='1325727076' post='2892877'] KoH aren't being asked to pay reparations, merely to refund the rebuild aid send to them previously. [/quote] Rebuilding aid from when?

I know one person in our alliance who has met several from our alliance in RL, that could be kinda cool I guess. But tbo I don't want to meet anyone from CN in RL and even less so at a convention. Remember the time that guy from NSO did a DOW on skype or something back during bi-polar, the guy with the hat and suit... LOL. And all these people started popping up all over the place. Yeah... I don't want to meet any of you.

Congratulations OBR and House Baratheon!

Good luck Argent. Sparta has had this coming for a long, long time.

[quote name='William Bonney' timestamp='1322535513' post='2855331'] I suppose after they pay out the same amount of reps we did we could call it even then, assuming they even have the logistics to do so. [/quote] As far as I know you didn't pay any reps last war. Perhaps you recall sitting around while MK and pals were wondering when big red was coming out to play before they pre empted you. Ring a bell?

[quote name='Farrin Xies' timestamp='1322459830' post='2854434'] No, I don't imagine that we will find that. Hey, Legion/SF/et al... will you stop beating around the bush? This war is complete crap right now. [/quote] Jesus... it never gets old watching NPO calling out other alliances when not so long ago the big red machine was on the other side of the fence and doing the exact same thing you are calling people out for now. Even better coming from IO's.

[quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1322369121' post='2853329'] [color="#0000FF"]The Federated Allied Independence League, the ultimate moralist alliance, is disgusted by the unwarranted and unprecedented aggression by the Siberian Tiger Alliance against the peace loving Independent Republic of Orange. We cannot stand idly by and watch this evil take hold of our world. As such, under by authority as God Emperor of the Federated Allied Independence League, I, Rebel Virginia, have no choice but to declare a state of war with the Siberian Tiger Alliances. Your days are numbered, Siberian Tigers, for I am a vengeful God Emperor.[/color] [/quote]*Yawn* Starting to run out of material I guess.

[quote name='Khyber' timestamp='1322370769' post='2853413'] You guys are disbanding after this? [/quote] I think our world is disbanding after this. If so we are going out in style.

[quote name='The Warrior' timestamp='1322368059' post='2853287'] Welcome to the field STA. Big mistake though. Enjoy. [/quote] It's never a mistake defending an ally. Cheers to a good fight all around!

[quote name='Crymson' timestamp='1322291460' post='2852051'] Hmm, let's go over this one final time. It was predicted (successfully, as it turns out) by those of us in high milcomm (Polar included) for that coalition that the enemy's plan was to draw TOP and IRON in on the Superfriends--via a disproportionate number of declarations upon GOD--and then drop CnG on top of us. As such, it was decided that spoiling the enemy's plans rather than playing directly into them gave the better chance for our coalition-at-large to win the war. This was a plan agreed to, and endorsed, by Polar. STA neither agreed nor disagreed with the plan, for the record; pezstar said that, if asked about the matter, she'd pretend to never have heard about it. After the plans were finalized, Grub and pezstar leaked them to CnG almost immediately. Grub then took steps to deliberately leave TOP and Duckroll in the cold once those two entities had declared war on CnG, and some weeks later declared war on TOP. That explanation is for the benefit of those unfamiliar with the situation. Tyga already knows what happened. He's currently playing dumb in an effort to bolster a claim that nobody anywhere is going to be dumb enough to buy. [/quote] Always wanted to ask a someone from TOP this question. How could you ally an alliance that was instrumental in forcing you to pay 270k tech or whatever it was. You guys don't like Polar fine, how come you don't have the same hate for those who imposed those reps on you?

[quote name='AirMe' timestamp='1320460774' post='2839257'] Has anyone yelled "WORLD POLICE" yet? [/quote] Yup. [quote name='Corinan' timestamp='1320452095' post='2838996'] I've been AWOL for a while now. When did MK and VE become the World Police? [/quote]

[quote name='Flonker' timestamp='1320459798' post='2839222'] The Legion won this one. Everybody knows this. So, for our sins (i.e., winning this) we're gonna get rolled. [/quote] Hold out vietfan style, make it a PR nightmare for VE/MK. The longer this drags out the worse it gets for them. Admittedly it's easy for me to say sitting on the sidelines but I can't think of a better way for the Legion to shed the "WAE" reputation and gain a few admirers along the way.

A moralist crusade against despicable posturing and e-peen waving... brings a tear to my eye.

Very happy to see this. Admired from afar for so long we are looking forward to building a great relationship with our new friends.

[quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1320000329' post='2835139'] [color="#0000FF"]Other alliances had posted information about Legion long before Tetris, yet you did not retaliate against those alliances. Tell me, what changed in that period? Aside from the fact Tetris was much smaller and much less connected. Would Legion have even dared do what it did against MK or IRON? Doubtful.[/color] [/quote] Why is it doubtful? Legion had every right to believe they would get rolled for declaring on Tetris. VE and PB could easily have brought themselves into the conflict as Legion had no way of knowing they wouldn't before declaring. I beleive they declared when they did because they were finally pushed to the breaking point.

[quote name='Farrin Xies' timestamp='1318566689' post='2824614'] This is not the NpO announcement the OWF hungered for. [/quote]Indeed quite a few alliances are more than a little disappointed, including Pacifica?

[quote name='Jaiar' timestamp='1318565380' post='2824591'] My nation is small. Investment in it should be during peace time. Smart members will realize how this world works and that their tiny nation will not win the war. I realize it. I rather send 300 tech to assist large nations in my alliance to build up than have my nation grow. I can buy wonders, build a war chest, and assist my fellow alliance members more effectively this way. Members are family and should realize that the family comes first and not their nation. This war and all its AIDS are futile puff. [/quote] Assisting micro nations during conflict is not about winning the war, sorry you don't see that.

[quote name='Heft' timestamp='1318564245' post='2824563'] Well Polar won't actually get off the sidelines and do anything that might make a material difference to the war effort, so making a show of sending aid and posturing about "making it equal again" or whatever other nonsense is pretty much all they are left with. [/quote] You believe Polar coming in will make a differance?

[quote name='Jaiar' timestamp='1318563975' post='2824558'] They cannot delete from not paying bills. They can sit and collect and make do with what ever they can raid from an enemy. They are better off getting to peace mode than crying about needing aid. Larger nations where the war is really fought shouldn't be bothered with having to send aid to fuel useless skirmishes. [/quote] Where I come from members are valued regardless of NS. Completely disagree for a couple of reasons, 1)Members are family and deserving of support 2)Should be considered an investment for the future growth of the alliance
