Gibsonator21 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 [quote name='Charles Stuart' timestamp='1317792439' post='2816803'] Funny jokes only. [/quote] Didn't make a joke. Simply stated facts. [quote name='magicninja' timestamp='1317792497' post='2816805'] So what you're saying is all that Tetris' side has to do is put alliances on Legion that are somewhat connected to the more powerful elements of Bob and Polar (and apparently all of Legions other allies) will do nothing for fear of getting rolled? Sounds about right. [/quote] Did you read my post? I'll make it real simple: Legion doesn't (or shouldn't, at least) need help from their allies at this point in time. If they decide they do, they won't bother having Polar come in against the likes of NSO, NsO, or Tetris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jgoods45 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 [quote name='Unknown Smurf' timestamp='1317792056' post='2816795'] The declaration was because tetris condoned spying upon the Legion.

[/quote] I wouldn't be so sure and at the rate Polar is putting nations in PM those might be the only alliances they could help with in the end. Also I mentioned Legion's other allies who are also absent thus far. I heard Invicta and Europa did a complete 180 for fear of RoK. As I said, if Tetris keeps drawing small but connected alliances how far will it go until one of Legion's allies has to hit one of them and not worry about the consequences? Seems pretty !@#$ that Legion, even if they can absorb the damage, has to eat nukes alone because their allies are too scared to act.

Maybe they were expecting someone worthwhile to hit Legion? I don't know their motives, and I'm going to take an educated guess and say neither do you. Fear of RoK. I smiled. They backed off, but it wasn't for fear of RoK. Besides, if Legion and their allies were scared of losing, why would they have declared in the first place? Eventually, sure, they will probably need help. But as of this moment, why bother? And if they keep getting "small" alliances, why bother pulling in a sanctioned alliance?

[quote name='Farrin Xies' timestamp='1317791761' post='2816789'] The difference here is that Legion has now been directly attacked, hence their MD-level treaties *should* have activated.
