Ardus Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 [quote name='Grey Fox' timestamp='1320467323' post='2839355'] Nice job MK/VE. I'm all for you intervening in something that has nothing at all to do with you. [/quote] While you are free to disagree with our chosen course of action, your government has been petitioning the Kingdom to intervene in the matter since its beginning. Though not militarily committed, we've been involved in the conflict from day one. It has everything to do with us. Such is the burden of power, as it were.

Ayatollah Bromeini Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 I don't disagree with the premise of what VE/MK are doing, I just disagree with the way they're doing it. I mean if you're going to play god here, why not threaten Polar with war if they don't defend Legion in 72hrs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Humphrey Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 It is pretty clear that the MK/VE intervention benefits NSO, and furthermore that justifying it based on Tetris' involvement is tenuous, given that Tetris has the opportunity to exit independently of NSO whenever it wants. Nonetheless, the subsequent escalation to a genuine DoW on [u]both[/u] Legion and NSO would be interesting to observe. I presume their treaty partners would be prepared to honour their treaties against such aggression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illusion Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) After them seeing that the community wasn't fooled by this announcement that carried an alternative motive to make war instead of peace, I would love to be a fly on the wall on the MK and VE boards right about now. I hope that they are blaming each other for what clearly appears to be a mistake on their end. The CN community is composed of some very bright people. We are smart people, but MK/VE thought we would fall for this deception...and they were wrong. If power leads to being stupid and doing stupid things, then I prefer to stay right where I am at. I will see my nation dragged to hell before I come up with an idea as dumb as this. Edited November 5, 2011 by illusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] So in other words the negotiations between NSO and Legion have failed and you are at least partially responsible. So what's the OP then? Letting us know you'll be burning the evidence soon? You see, if you want the power, you also get the responsibility. That is how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the targets will be Legion, and I'm willing to bet most NSO/Tetris targets will only get token attacks. Legion, on the other tentacle, is bracing for the upcoming roll. MK/VE will think of something, [b]anything[/b], to take action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I assure you, the "community" isn't just Legion, Polar, STA, and a few other random moralists. The vast majority of the community is likely giving this a solid "Meh". Some of the more vocal are frothing at the mouth about it, and another chunk is giddy with the prospect of war, and touching their nukes in a NSFW fashion. Basically, don't mistake a few pages of rightous indignation for some sort of referendum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMC123 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) I love how people still think this is beneficial to NSO. Will Legion take a bigger hit than NSO? Yeah, probably because they are bigger, will NSO be treated lightly or receive "token" hits? You are freakin' high if you think that. In case you aren't aware, which is appears most of you are not, NSO and VE have a very interesting dynamic, namely, they absolutely abhor each other. Do you really think Impero is going to let NSO off easy? Also: for largely the same reason as I just mentioned, I can guarantee you NSO did not know about this, nor did Tetris, so nice try, better luck next time.

[/quote] Sure, but no matter how much VE hate NSO, they physically cannot do all that much damage to them, most of NSO's remaining strength is out of reach. So unless VE are going to demand reps or something like that, there really isn't much they can to right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
