There really is something to be said about preparing for a counter attack, and sending minions to eat your nukes for you.
I believe the appropriate action is:
Offended nation A attacks Offensive nation B
Offensive nation B's allies attack offended nations A.
Offended nation A's allies attack Offensive nation B's allies
*shrug* just sayin.
I think maybe you guys are tired of talking smack about 6 alliances beating our a**es, waiting for a potential counter attack.
"baww where are your allies! baww you gots no one protecting you. bawwwwwww. "
I haven't seen a post from my government pleading for anyone's help, have you?
I mean, I know we're pretty ba over all, and I applaud you on knowing it would take at least 4 alliances to take us on.
Edit: Love me some typos!
