Great read.

Well, your Plan A never made much sense. Good luck with this one.

My thoughts, exactly. You can tell who is losing a war by the amount of inconsistent babble they scamp through the Forums. And DH is surpassing all previously stated limits. Some of them try to look cool and funny. Others try to claim the moral high ground ("u are hypocrites", "u show that our way of playing the "game" is right"). Others rely in trash-talk ("u-sux", "u are the worst coalition evar"). Others brag about how strong they are ("our warchests are over 9 thousand!", "we have lotsa tech"). Others rely on numbers and data to justify how they are winning the war ("despite the fact our alliances are lossing more score than yours, our hand-picked battles show we are destroying you"). Etc. But the restless and nerviousness is patent in them all. The other side, is just concentrated in doing their work.

I have to disagree with the OP. I don't find MK, TOP, NG, GOONS and Co. cute at all.

The Equilibrium doesn't seems to care about burning their top tiers, as long as yours are dragged down to the NS range where they enjoy overwhelming numerical superiority. :popcorn:

That's the great thing about DH's mass-dove tactic. You don't need to guess whose enemy nations are inactive tech farms, they have already planted a big target sign for your convenience.

Mmmmmh... a Steam Roller for guerrilla warfare? Interesting weapon of choice. :popcorn:

You are still living in denial, I see. How was it? Denial leads to anger, anger leads to grief, and grief leads to inner peace. Or something. You a long way have to walk still, young one. :popcorn:

And still, they are curbstomping you. I understand your frustation. After years of building up your Ego on the stomping of those weaker, it triggers a lot of insecurity to find that you are now even weaker than them. :popcorn:

Good to see you guys involved. Hope you'll have stocked your bunkers with enough cyanide pills. :popcorn:

Go on. Make my day. But if you do, please avoid the egocentric mentality of certain guys in NG who think that the world revolves around them and people cares about NG's Foreign Affairs agenda. The world has come once again into a divide. Choose a side, or don't. But do not whine about people "forcing" you to attend the ball.

About time NG gathered enough balls to join the side it belongs. Now that all the scum is lined in the same field, the Equilibrium can take the trash out. :popcorn:

Mind your language. Very soon you'll have to say: "3rd GOONS, just like the 1st GOONS and the 2nd GOONS" :popcorn:

Enjoy the tech-raid o/ NPL :popcorn:

With so many guns pointing at so few targets, fire discipline is needed in order to avoid friendly fire. We don't want a clusterfuck there, don't we? On the other hand... let's see, GPF began to shoot at VE and basically told them "oops, sorry, wrong target. If you don't mind, I'm gonna fire upon your friends over there, while my friends come here to resume their shooting at you". And DH is acting here as if they had scored a decisive victory. Comedy Gold. :popcorn:

You mean that the victor will still be whoever goes around bulling alliances until he annoys so many people that everyone agrees to join forces and dogpile on his ass? Well, the reality of what has happened to any hegemonic bloc that has degenerated in such course of action, proves your premise wrong. But, also, to call that juvenile course of action as "Realpolitik" is... well, insultant for the term. "Realpolitik" implies achieving your objectives and still coming up clean and with a smile, close to a White Knight PR rating. On the contrary, the "deal with it" doctrine is just plain inmature bulling, doomed to failure in a place like Bob, where war is economically inefficient for the most part. Many of you, moralist-loathers, fail to realize the true power of morals. Nations in Bob are more than just a bunch of infra, tech and land. They are his leaders, and behind those leaders, there is an human being. Alliances are more than just bunchs of infra, tech and land packed togheter. They are communities of human beings. You may force them to do your bidding at the point of a gun, for a time. But whoever wins their hearts and minds, wins on the long run. And when your Hegemonic bloc acts in the stupid way you are defending, they pave half the way for the so-called "moralists". So, there are indeed two kinds of politics in Planet Bob: The good ones that let you survive and maybe become a power-player, and the bad ones that get you destroyed. Your "realpolitik" belongs to the latter kind, as the community of Planet Bob is once again on the way to prove. Respectifully Me

Enjoy the tech-raid. :popcorn:

Finally, you gathered enough balls to get into de fray. Enjoy your execution. :popcorn:

In my town, if we are playing poker and we discover one of the guys in the table cheating, it's tan and feathers for him.

Good to see that the Equilibrium will scatter your last remmants. :popcorn:

Honorable move, as it's your tradition, VE. But it's sad to see a fine alliance like VE throwing itself into a meat grinder in defense of a bunch of scum. Sad, but inevitable.

That was a good read. :popcorn:

Great. Help yourself, then. [img]http://www.atfreeforum.com/agp/images/smiles/mw_partytime.gif[/img]

I miss the Hegemony. They knew how to get !@#$ done.
