You realize he's still outdamaged you thus far? You might want to fight longer than 16 hours in you're entire history before you start acting like you know what you're doing.
Also get a trade circle. Would you like my consulting services to teach you how?Got a trade circle underway, thanks for your offer in this area all the same.
As far as him outdamaging me, are you using mark-to-market accounting or traditional GAAP to assess that number?

I've just been attacked by a nation in The Legion. While, normally, a war is a wonderful thing to have, this one gave me concerns. The nation in question has been in The Legion for over a year and was remarkably inept in his warfighting abilities. I mean, he attacked at 12 minutes to an hour after midnight, and only got off one ground attack. I had two thoughts on the root cause of this. Either, one, The Legion has no effective training for its members on how to fight a war or, two, folks in The Legion aren't paying attention to the training that's available.
That's where The Bobs comes in.
We are a full-service consultancy that can offer the following benefits, among others:
- We can show a way to double, even quadruple ground attacks in the first wave. With just two easy steps, your nations can really step up productivity and performance.
- We can demonstrate industry best practices in having cash on hand when fighting a war, so as not to be bankrupt at the end of a series of battles.
- We can unlock the secrets behind the best way to deploy an air force, including how to handle level nine planes!
- Introduce a simple, three-step plan to right-size your organization, built around a core of nations whose leaders actually read up on how to fight wars.
I don't mind the fact that The Legion is at war with my nation right now: business is business, and The Bobs are here to assist all potential clients. Reach out to us today to find out about our strategic, synergystic services that can give you leverage.
The Bobs... We're on YOUR team!

This thing has strategic synergies written all over it. Good to see this officialized.

Love to see a new startup. How are you kids fixed for ERP and workflow systems?

What would you say ya DO here?
That is a great question, and one that everyone should ask of himself from time to time. Myself, I'm a consultant. From just a few days of observation, it is clear that there are a number of alliance organizations that would benefit from a variety of products I offer, from personnel evaluations on over to ISO 9000 compliance.
If you know of anyone that could benefit from some best-of-breed world-class business process solutions, I would be very thankful for the referrals.

Finally release from the eternal blue balls...
Better out than in is applicable in oh so many situations.

I think the point is to make your enemies less capable of causing more damage to your alliance by removing their tech and infra faster.
Making them less of a threat to you and your alliance mates which plays a part in protecting your warchests as faster tech loss harms your spy operations while increasing the odds of your enemies successfully removing cash from your nation.
If you can't see the benefit of the WRC in war then you should not be anywhere near a war.
Helping one's alliance more is a pretty convincing reason for most players including me, I bought a WRC the other day.
I have to agree with your conclusion. Ironically, his nation was the first one to get into the fight for MHA. Maybe MHA should consider an outsourcing solution for its wars. That, or they've got a strong need for some ISO 9000. Define the procedures, follow them, enjoy the benefits of doing things the right way.

Who are you again?
I'm on your team.

We're leveraging our core competences to maximize delivering real return our counterpart's inflated ns-stock portfolio and establishing paradigmal relations with positive through-put.
You're missing out on some strategic synergies if you're not smart-sizing your priorities.

Alright, you guys are making me update the Wiki too much, can we lay off these Nordreich declarations now? :v:
Just keep track of the alliances not at war with Nordreich and put a line through them as they announce their declarations. Streamlines the process.
-
Just so everyone knows, E is an excellent fighter, but I think he has too much of Planet Steve mindset stuck in him.
The WRC is far more effective on Planet Bob when it comes to war because of the much larger warchests to support it, and the ability to destroy tech faster. A cost/benefit analysis would show it cause the enemy to lose money faster then yourself, which supports the latter part of your statement. But the first part of this comment was dumb. :|
Also, what's up, E? Long time, no see.
You can't argue with a straightforward efficiency assessment. Someone give this guy a bonus.
-
Here's something you don't see every day. A declaration against Nordreich.
Buy on the rumor and sell on the news if you don't want to be caught holding the hot potato in a bubble market.
-
What an idiotic video to post. Do you even watch the show? Are you planning to get your asses handed to you by Nordreich or something?
Different strokes for different folks. And, correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the asses at war with Kaskus?
-
last i checked we had 50 wars before update. not bad for peace mode warriors right?
Looks like you're doing neither war nor peace effectively. You need to decide which one is your core competency and focus on that.
-
Nordriech seems to generate some deep hatreds here. There's a difference between you can't please everyone and despised by all, and it looks like Nordreich is leaning towards the latter. Serious PR issues here, and there needs to be some re-strategizing in the Nordriech boardroom. I would strongly recommend a Trinity HR review procedure implementation so that you can get to the root of your process issues that lead to quality control problems.
-
So I'm wondering, and maybe you can help me out here. Is this a declaration of curbstomp, in which you end the fight with the other parties at war with Nordriech, or is this an actual two enter one leaves Thunderdome thing where the war stops only because the enemy is out of range? Because I, for one, think you both should opt for the latter. It's what you want to do, it's what you're capable of doing, and, frankly, it's what you should be doing. Because if either side has an ideology worth clinging to, it's something you prove to each other, independent of entanglements with interlopers.
Right-size the war so it's the war you want, not the war you're willing to accept.
-
Well, now that you have a war, you need to define your deliverables and project milestones, or it'll just go nowhere in a big hurry.

Starting a new nation is a tricky business. There are two ways to go with it. One is to read up, check resources, hang back, observe, get to know the feel of the place, and to not do anything rash or precipitate.
Then there's the big splash approach. Much steeper learning curve, but the lessons learned are valuable, valuable experiences. Honestly, I lack the courage for that approach. I salute Buckaroo13 for rolling that hard six and taking the hard road. He's willing to take the tough choices, and that sounds like executive potential, I crap you negative.
I think he should join another alliance not so he can learn there, but so he can run it. This is a take-charge guy with a can-do attitude that belongs at the top.

Don't care much for the Zeppelin. You could say I'm more of a Michael Bolton fan. I celebrate his entire catalog.
Anyhoo, you're going to want to make sure your vinyl is in a secure, refrigerated location if you're likely to be attacked with nuclear weapons. Unless you like warps and skips, that is!
-
Looks like you guys could benefit from hiring a copy editor that also handles title work.
But I do see you have a nation involved in the conflict. We all start somewhere, am I right? There's always the second and third wave, if I understand correctly. Possibly a fourth wave, and so on. Point is, you are engaged, and you can always improve what you can measure.
-
We cleanse with nuclear fire. Gets those hard to reach spots on the molecular level, vaporization and all.
Clarification is always welcome.
Now, how many nukes do you anticipate using in this conflict? One assumes your opponent will also use nuclear weapons, so I'm sure your bean counters have done a cost-benefit thing. Bottom line, I'm sure you stand to gain a significant amount in this conflict, or you would not have engaged. Best of luck in your efforts.

Clear. Clean. Simple. Informative. Synergistic. The guys in the boardrooms are eating this up, of that I am certain. Well done, AndrewHG. I for one am loving this graphic you've put together.
-
You mentioned having a clean and honorable fight. Honorable, I get. Clean, though, is another matter. Knowing the regulations in manufacturing sectors that involve clean rooms, I can say with some certainty that a battlefield is hardly certifiable as a clean facility. If you have some issues down the road with expectations you set now that you can't deliver on, don't be surprised.
If you meant clean as a synonym for honorable, then that's just redundant. You can realize a substantial savings by right-sizing your sentences. It's worth looking into.

Doesn't seem like it would be cost-effective in the long-run. That alone would discourage the literal application of the practice. There's also the issue of having to have one or more nations at near-zero infrastructure in order to keep the PZI nation at zero. I doubt anyone would really want to volunteer a nation he's running to stay near zero just so he can continue flailing away at a nation sentenced to PZI.
So, you don't have to tell anyone directly and cause a confrontation over it. The problem takes care of itself.
The Legion Could Use My Services

Not at all. The timeline went like this:
Update --> His attack on me --> Him getting nuked.
I really could use a Gantt chart, here, so bear with me while I do the brown-paper thing on this whiteboard...
What I'm suggesting, and I'm not giving away too much free consulting when I say this, but it should have gone like this:
First attack on me --> Update --> Another attack on me --> Him getting nuked.
Simple process revision and productivity increases. And I'm not saying that the nation is particularly bad. There is, however, room for improvement, and that's where consulting comes in.
As far as my personal professional prior experience goes, I've got a number of NDAs in place, so I'm not going to get into discussing that aspect. We'll put a pin in that and, when the NDAs are expired, we can take that topic up again, no problem. Until then, hey, if anyone wants to throw rocks, well the heart wants what the heart wants. The Bobs always has a policy about taking the high road and keeping communications professional and upbeat.
Kind of like the music of Michael Bolton. He's the top-selling adult contemporary male vocalist in our nation, and I just can't get enough of his professional and upbeat songcrafting.
