First of all, mid tier is between 40k and 80k.
If you are going to do a mid tier thread, provide stats. This has no content and pointless.
There are a few important things when discussing the mid tier battle. For instances the amount of nations sitting at 12k tech but low infa. These nations are the super mid tier nations and will eventually cost equilibrium the mid tier. You simply won't out damage us and that is the point of war. It's not about saving pixels, its about destroying your enemies pixels.
And yes, I'm having fun destroying equilibriums mid tier. I don't even need to pm for nukes; buy um and burn um gets her done.
