Update #2:
It seems that Dixie is not so inactive after all. Just declared on one of our guys on this last day of war. I remember someone being concerned about inactives suddenly becoming active and then skewing the stats. Not wanting to ignore those concerns, here is another stats update including the back-from-the-dead Dixie:
IRON: 320,436 NS 53,668 Infra 6,415 Tech [2.1% infra advantage]
NloN: 336,310 NS 52,577 Infra 9,298 Tech [5.0% NS advantage, 45% tech advantage]
Yeah yeah, I know that a guy suddenly showing up on the last day of war should only contribute 20% toward the stats. I just wanted to reiterate that the war was evenly matched as far as stats go.
War is over at update tonight. We'll post stats sometime after that.

That's the thing though. Y'all are assuming that 100% of NLoN is active. I'd be willing to bet that they're not. Honestly, who doesn't have inactives?
Good call. So I went ahead and searched for NLoN wars where IRON lost no infrastructure or where there was no war at all.
NLoN Inactives:
screed from eastcoast - no wars, 14,741 NS 2,844 infra 231 tech
LukeDiamondKing from Dixie - no wars, 14,987 NS 2,717 infra 303 tech
However, I also noticed that NLoN had a nation that suddenly built up on the 27th, Erytria - 20,339 NS 4,170 infra 1,020 tech. I don't believe Brewer's stats included this nation and he's definitely fighting, so I'll add him into the stats too.
Updated matchup:
IRON: 320,436 NS 53,668 Infra 6,415 Tech [7.6% infra advantage]
NloN: 321,323 NS 49,860 Infra 8,995 Tech [0.3% NS advantage, 40% tech advantage]
I don't think that looks like an unfair fight at all. Now, Erytria popping into existence and then declaring on two of our inactives on the other hand...

I just find it hard to believe no one in alliance questioned attacking on the 2nd when tagrets where handed out, they can argue their version of what 2nd means that no one agrees with or they just wanted the advantage in their attacks. But I'm beating a dead horse here and no one is going to post they questioned attacking on 2nd.

Wish I could take credit for the DoW, but that was the work of Brewers.
8 hours ago, malakarlian said:Very nice DOW I have to say!:) however I don’t quite get stipulations on wars in general let alone this one to the extent it is. I get the intent of two alliances agreeing or attempting to have a war that doesn’t include “dirty” spy ops (even that’s debatable). Then blockades are added then no nukes might as well say no ground attacks either.
And we opted to take a lot of the more damaging options off the table because this is a very light war. We were ideally going to have a full scale war with OP+DCS, but you sniped them less than an hour before we could declare.
8 hours ago, malakarlian said:The reason i mention this is because i see it becoming a trend and could give two alliances that agree to this soft war gives them essentially a padded period of time then time normally granted to alliances to rebuild when no real damage has occurred (especially with no nukes).
This would be true if we weren't moving right into a holiday ceasefire. We'll try to secure a better match-up next time.

Merry Christmas from IRON
“Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
War Doves weren’t stirring, not even the Germanic Empire’s boss;
The stockings were hung by The League of Guardians with care,
In Hopes that IRON Santa soon would be there
The alliances were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of radiation danced in their heads;
And Samwise in Kurdanak and SeaBee in a cap
Had just settled down for a nuclear winter’s nap.
When out on Steve there arose such a clatter,
apricotsfoxbase sprang from Tuskauqua to see what was the matter.
Away to the Window, there was a great flash
As IRON Santa covered their alliances in nuclear ash
The flames of War Doves from the guns that did blow
Gave the lustre of a mid-day to rubble below
When, what to College Mom’s eyes should appear
But an IRON sleigh and its nations to fear
What a strong driver, so rich and so quick
They knew it was Talus, their stomachs grew sick.
More rapid than eagles Lord Sunday He came
And he whistled and shouted Sister Midnight’s name.
Now LACHITON, now NELSON, now DrT and TITAN!
On Rhizo! On Bears! On Shawdi and Brewers!
To the top of the leaders! Answer the IRON Call!
Now army's away! Navy's Away! Nukes for all!
As dry leaves that before the nuclear missiles fly,
When they hear the IRON Jets roaring in the Sky,
To War Doves, The League of Guardians and AIRCOM they Flew
With the sleigh full of bombs and IRON Santa too.
And then, in a twinkling, Steve heard on the roof
The pixels dying, vanishing in a poof
They began to run and were turning around
Down the sky IRON Santa came with a bound
He was dressed in all IRON from his head to his foot
And his clothes were all tarnished with nuclear ash and soot
A bundle of soldiers were at his back
And he looked ready for war, a punch did he pack
His eyes- how they twinkled! His dimples how merry!
His weapons and bombs popping the newbs cherries!
His droll little gun was draw up like a bow
And the blood of his enemies covered up the snow.
The stump of an arm and a pile of white teeth
From Doves And German and Guardian soldiers on the ground beneath
His broad shouldered body, and tight abs belly
Other alliances wanted him, they were so Jelly
He was powerful and deadly, an IRON forged elf
And D1 and UN filled with joy for missing evading IRON themselves.
A wink of his eye and a nod from his head
In came the bombs and soon they were dead
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work
And dropped all the nukes, then turned with a jerk
And laying his finger on the big red button
Dropped even more bombs, while chewing his mutton
He sprang to the IRON sleigh, to his team gave a whistle
And away they attacked like the down of a thistle
But Steve heard him exclaim,ere he nuked all in sight
MERRY NUKEMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A NUCLEAR NIGHT!

Update 12/18 12:38 am
We will not perform any of the following except in retaliation of the same: Nukes, econ ops, blockades
tl;dr: IRON declares war on War Doves, League of Gaurdians, and The Germanic Empire.
Merry Christmas!
Lord Sunday, Sister Midnight, and Talus
DoW by Brewers

IRON would also like to avoid hostilities for the stated time.

Where are these screen shots? Show everyone what was shown in private so everyone can judge for themselves. I have nothing to hide but what about you?
Why are you so keen to see screen shots of your own words? Just look through your own logs at the vitriol and lies that you've spewed. You can't hide the truth, and the truth is that you've been gunning for UN ever since they took in Stevie Squad. Even if it means ruining the game for a few genuine CN newbies, you would gladly sacrifice them to run the rest of UN and SS out of the game.

Note that any nations who break the cease-fire are subject to standard penalties for doing so. They will receive a full day of counter attacks from nations that they are currently warring.

After reviewing new information, we have come to the conclusion that the evidence justifying this war was invalid. Rather than continuing our part in an undeserving punishment, we have decided to conclude the war.
The Independent Republic of Orange Nations and the United Nations agree to peace beginning at update today, 12/13. Best of luck in the round everyone!
Signed,
IRON:TE Council

Saw a late hit from NLON. Please confirm that you guys are also peacing out.

IRON agrees to conclude the war by update tonight 11/8 - 11/9. It was fun to see some of the coordinated strikes going both ways. Best of luck for a swift rebuild to get back on your feet in time for the end-of-round wars.

The UI states that we can nuke even though it has not yet been 24 hours. We should see the red "Wait 24 hours" text instead.
Clicking the Launch Attack button still fails over to the red wait 24 hour text, but normally the entire Launch Attack dialog is not available until 24 hours is up.

IRON proposes a cease-fire when the first wars expire at update tonight with no attacks/ops to be performed after 10/23 23:59:59 CT. If Roman Empire agrees, please state so here.
Stats will be provided shortly afterward.

We'd like to leave out "dirty" ops for this war. No need to spoil things before the end-of-round wars. Since there are always questions, here is the list of ops that we would prefer to avoid this war. Please let us know if you agree:
* Incite Government Propaganda
* Incite Religious Propaganda
* Assassinate Enemy Generals
* Sabotage IRS Proficiency
* Destroy Money (this op is so worthless, I don't even know why I bother listing it)
* Naval Blockades

I've heard from all leaders except for RoadRash in NDO, but we should be good to wrap this war up as planned at update tonight. Well fought everyone. Look forward to seeing stats at the end of the war.

Glad to hear that you were sparred from much of the destruction. Best wishes as your community starts the long road to rebuilding.

I'm still trying to figure Tableau out, so some math is required to interpret these tables. Still, this is faster than going through and summing each nation's war screen.
To get totals, you need to sum the diagonals. In other words:
IRON NS Lost = 47,459 + 64,319 = 111,778
NLON NS Lost = 133,165 + 11,198 = 144,363 [+29%]
Since you reminded me that I needed to post this, I went ahead and made one for you too Vianor
Articali NS Lost = 17,443
IRON NS Lost = 22,027 [+26%]
Would be pretty evenly matched if not for the uncontested 5K you got from killing our inactive. None-the-less, good war and good luck rebuilding
