I like your defense guy haha. Best of luck out there guys.

Also did they just call their allies "peasant alliances"? Pretty sure they did.

If there's one thing I will not tolerate,  it's peasants on my lawn.

Congrats comrade Marx on our win!

 

Certainly a strategic victory if the goal was to buy cheap Mars and moon wonders. Otherwise it was a good ol fashion beat down of the communist faithful. 

[A peaceful resolution]

It must be lonely up there on your soapbox. 

 

I do hope the UCR has learned to stay in the kiddy pool.

Glad to see peace rear it's ugly head once again.  Hopefully all parties involved have learned something from this and become better rulers because of it.

 

I have learned nothing and consider myself a worse ruler. So, there's that.

 

 

Thanks for the good fight Starschwar. Blaist... thanks for doing your best potato impression, surely it confused some of my nukes. 

 

Best of luck to all those still in the field wrapping this bit of business up.

So don't be a senator? You could be one of the 2/5 votes making it 3/5, if you were active enough to vote and influence things. At least be active if you're gonna hold a seat, takes a whole minute to login and check my dude.

 

There's a more important aspect to being a senator than voting on events. Anyone on black that doesn't like our senator is welcome to campaign against him.

I couldn’t tell any of you were alive when your Senators never cast a single vote.

 

I’d say welcome back, but it seems rude to be happy that anyone is still playing this game.

 

 

We decided long ago that our Senate seat exists for our purposes. Icheliebebrad Has always been available to DT and our allies. Our activity since 2017 hasn't been anything to brag about but we have been here the whole time. Functioning quietly away from the public eye.

When there's someone on the other side of that freeway getting curbstomped by a savage gang of thieves and bullies, looking both ways is not an option, and stopping the attack becomes the only priority. 

 

Looking both ways is always an option. You can only ever truly help the down trodden from a position of power. Not from the position of pancake duck on highway. 

 

 

Further more, these nations requested aid from UCR... Why not just feed them cash, tech, soldiers. Give them fighting tips. Defend them for a day or enable them to defend themselves for the duration of their stay on planet Bob. Because you could settle things with DW today and next week it'll just be someone else raiding them.

Please continue to lecture me as to how WE are the bullies for standing up to this crap. Please. Enlighten me. Tell me how I'm actually the big bad bully because I'm tired of folks like DW ganging up on defenseless players for no reason other than their own boredom. 

 

For what it's worth. I don't see you as a bully here. 

 

 

Just a mama duck that didn't look both ways before trying to lead it's flock of ducklings across the freeway.

DT has been embedded in the doomsphere for quite a long period, it is astonishing to me that you or anyone would find us helping our allies surprising or unjustified.

 

 

 

There is an argument to make that is surprising we did anything at all because while many alliances have perfected the art of turtleing these past 5ish years we've been working on the art of potatoing.

 

But we're ready to come out of our gritty potato shell. No longer shall they look upon us and see starchy carbs from the bosom of Mother earth. For today we are French fries! Beautiful! Crisp! Golden! 

 

Sadly in the near future we'll probably be soggy but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

 It's great DT are active again, good for them but this approach to warfare where any aggressor is immediately shut down with excessive force is extremely detrimental to the political dynamic of this world.

I mean... slipknot is okay. Though if I had to choose a Corey Taylor act I would say Stone Sour is more my pace.

So if we had individually signed treaties with each of the nations who requested and and posted them here for all to see, our defense of the defenseless would be acceptable to you?     HA!     And just last week every thread on here was decrying the act of signing treaties. What a joke. 

I would find your cause a little more relatable. As you'd just be doing right by your buddies. Kinda like how DS is doing right by their buddies. 

 

If you get a chance, send my best to ComradeV. He's the only guy I still recognize from your group. Wish him well!

[Disappointed, but not surprised]

Yeah. I mean we can grand stand all you want (I encourage it in fact, makes for some lulz) but at the end of the day you attacked a protectorate with only moral cause which many would argue to be unjust cause. You gotta protect your protectorates. That's the bottom line.

Many years ago, The Dark Templar stood tall. Through power of will, and no small show of force, we solidified our place in this world. In time, we built a mighty empire with our allies. 

 

For too long, The Dark Templar sat back. The fear and cowardice of others allowed us to do so, and the world decayed. So many faces have been lost to the annals of time. 

 

It is time to stand once more. Our eyes are open, and we can see. 

 

We see the rhetoric against imperialism. 

 

We see you, UCR. 

 

We see what you’ve done. 

 

And we’ll see you in the field.

[DT-Sengoku joint announcement.]

Eh. I feel like you really half assed this. I expected better. I'd threaten to roll you but I think someone else may already be doing that and I'm no fan of bandwagoning. 

[dont go to sleep tonight]

Good to see you and Hasan still kickin it together Hardin! 

 

Uh, good luck? 

[Royal Proclamation of Doom Kingdom]

I wanted to drop a quick thank you. DS/DK were a very impactful group as far as DT is concerned. Hershey and WC, you two have been great to work with. Thanks for everything over the years. If there is ever anything you need, feel free to call on me. If I can help, I will.

[Operasi Puputan (Nusantara Declaration)]

If they're on Brown & don't want to fight, I think you should leave them be. Also a bit uneven handed to ht some barely active alliances for it and not DK, although I do see the legitimacy of the AA switching argument; however TIR has a long history of being a peaceful alliance and helping others out. So I think that should be taken into consideration.

It's completely uneven. That said TIR have seemed pretty cool thus far. I can't imagine any of us will be too hard on them if they decide they want out. Until then though, they'll be answering for the actions of their senior members that decided to attack Sengoku.

[Wff, Aw And Monsters Inc Shake Hands]

I understand you are trying to take the fall for your mishaps- however, it's also WFFs responsibility for representing them and they apointed you.

And now since it's out in the open, let me be frank with you. You do not belong in FA or gov for that matter; unless it's putting together trade circles or initiating tech deals. As your friendliness is a weakness.

I could smell that blood when you guys Warred selio but it wasn't our fight.

And while your fall is in a dramatic fashion- it's simply business, reference lord Hershey's bio: "politicians are worse than criminals" and when your side is set to purge our sphere; I assure you that we will pierce yours in the process.

Damn dude, that post is fuckin cold. I mean it happens. We have all seen it. And I'm sure we've all experienced it, most from bothe sides. But you don't gotta rub it in the guys face in a public forum. Could just call him a dumb shit in private.
