I have fallen into the pay bills, improvement swap, and collect taxes rut with some tech deals in between. I was not happy to see this little tech raid when I logged in today, and was even more upset when I retaliated and didn't plan it at all. My war skills are obviously a little rusty since I haven’t joined in on the TE fun for a while now.
Anyway, I don't think I am going to roll over and just give my tech away. This may be just what AGW needed. War declared by a much larger alliance with significantly larger nations and higher numbers, I think we need to decrease their nation strength a bit. Anyone else out there with me? Seems to me if they could fight they wouldn’t be “raiding” someone they thought would be such easy targets. I would find it hard to be proud of a battle I won when the other nation was sleeping and 1/3rd my size. But I would take the free tech all the same.
