Locke Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 [quote name='Varianz' timestamp='1305667780' post='2713837'] We've been out of the war for quite some time now actually. Our rebuilding ended a while ago. We're above our pre-war ANS. And you fail to even address our higher rate of slot useage. Good try. Edit: Here's an example: LoSS, who's ANS is similar to ours, has only grown 3.4% in that same period. [/quote] And yet you still have tiny nations which are easier to grow, "rebuilt" or not. I didn't address your slot rate usage because I addressed where you are categorically wrong from even a cursory look from an outside perspective, which you were with respect to growth rates. Small nations can buy infra cheaply and quickly inflate their NS, and you have nearly 4 units of infra to every unit of tech. That's paper strength in a nuclear war, whereas GOD's ratio is a much nicer 2:1. Blowing cash on infra is growth, but it isn't strength, which is what's going to matter in a war. But if you want to brag about how weak your alliance will be in a war (which is the end result of this growth you prize), I suppose that's your prerogative, so I'll leave you to that.

STA GOD vs. DT+NoR also you can have some of the more amusing Doitzelesque ones like: CSN v. 'Sovereign' JB v. The World etc. [/quote] I hate to be that guy, but the only alliance I would characterize us as having a "rivalry" with would be Illuminati way back.

Vol Navy Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Actually we were probably as heated with STA at one point as we were with anyone else. But those leaders departed the planet and STA as it turns out is one of the best alliances out there. Atlantis back in the earlier days, they folded up shop though. PC, there was lots of dislike there from certain members and other members thought of those guys as friends even though all the Karma stuff happened how it did. Athens was pretty heated for a while, they've been pretty cool in the current war however. So has LOST for that matter. You guys are alright in my book. Probably #1 on the rivalry list these days is still the former UJP members. Mainly because they never seem to want to get over anything and keep attacking us.
