Hyperion321 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 [quote name='WorldConqueror' timestamp='1313281708' post='2780130'] Like I said before, I found it amusing that you speak of losing a war and disbanding in the same breath. I can only go on what you say, not what you meant to say. You put it in that context, not us. Next time you're raving about !@#$@#$ farriers and their families and rolling people and disbanding perhaps you should choose your words more carefully. Also, why are you waiting to roll us? You're obviously all worked up, surely glorious and powerful Sparta can find a way. [/quote] 1- I shouldn't need to contextualize anything for you. In fact I know l dont have to. You have been around long enough that if you honestly believe we are going to disband, then you are a grade A idiot. Losing a war has marginal long term effect anymore anyway what with modern warchests and all. We'll all be rebuilt in a few months anyway, so losing a war isn't that scary, if at all. 2- We have an actual relevant war to deal with at the moment. Rolling you isn't conducive to having success in the coming conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You mean that large alliances CAN actually keep mandatory treaties they sign with another large alliance for over a year?! With all the treaty shuffling I've seen between the big guys on all sides since paying the slightest attention, I thought there was some rule somewhere that said otherwise:P Learn something new every day!

[/quote] I loved the line when Ardus admitted he wanted to get away with as much as possible before Planet Bob imploded. And I echo that sentiment. Because by treatying NoR here, MK is getting away with the most dreaded and dastardly political move known to Planet Bob: Making a new allied friendship. How dare they! o/ MK edit: Spelling mistake.

[/quote] Hearing and listening are two different things. Clearly when Ardus said that he's going to be doing as much wild stuff as he can for the foreseeable future he was as insane as OWF commentators who observe that Ardus is pulling stunts. Ardus is an alarmist pinhead. It's almost funny that Fark and GOD were dumb/ham-handed enough to piss off an unambitious bloc like Mjolnir enough to push them into running into MK's arms, plus piss off most of the rest of the world into sympathizing with NoR in a situation that--if they knew the details--is unconscionable.

A 2 or 3 month war while you are being pounded badly by several alliances leaves a residual effect on your top tier that takes much longer than a few months to rebuild. Especially while the others that were not involved are continuing at the same rate of growth unaffected. NPO, NpO, MK, and TOP are all evidence of that.

You could be the worst fighter ever, but it doesn't take any skill to nuke me once a day. Large update blitzes are completely irrelevant because they rarely result in anarchies, and against an opponent who is even remotely prepared they dont do a lot of significant damage anyway. The only use for hitting close-ish to update is to get the nuke cycle in order, and even then most alliances blow their load on the war screen in a pointless show of force and leave nothing to work the cycles down the road. Also, the vast majority of damage comes from hitting a single button every day. Seriously, this game isn't that hard. The only hard part is planning treaty chains, match ups, working cycle control with nukes, and making sure the token retards in your planning channel don't do something stupid. That is the kind of stuff that coalition chans involving NSO have never done right, and that is why they haven't been a challenge. No, we haven't fought them face to face, but we have faced the products of their efforts and I am sure that MK's plans will far exceed anything the sith have ever conjured up.

At the end of the day, we are going to fight, we aren't going to disband, and who knows, we might even pull a win out of our ass. God knows we'll try.
