Listen man I know you have to support your coalition and rah rah we had the stones to attack Umbrella but please be less blindly ignorant. A lot to ask of a Pacifican, I know.

I am not blind. I am quite informed, and I do not have hubris to get in the way of my judgement. Wars are not determined in the first 2 days. You know that yourself.. I hope.

Also, I think the alliance strength charts are much more telling.

I also cannot help but wonder.. how much of those precious billions Umbrella has already spent trying to keep themselves from falling from the heavens.

Re: Zero One

Are you really that short sighted. that that list is all you care about?

I guess not all Umbrellans have given up hope.. albeit, short term hope. Keep flapping in the wind. It will be blowing for a while.

Your name's sake was taken down by a similar sustained bombardment, if I recall correctly.

It is you who are short sighted. It will take a significant amount of resources to take us down. There will be nothing left in our wake. Enjoy your war!

After the initial strikes, tech becomes of greater importance as nukes start flying. Guess who has the tech advantage?

Yeah! All five of them!

Edit: I thought you were referring to the purple text colour, not team. Still though, 2 of those nations are on that list from Umbrella, and 2 from me. None from AI.

If all rebuild from nothing, who shall grow most? The 100.. or the several hundred? I enjoy your prediction.. see you at the bottom!

PS. Maelstroms are notorious for dragging things down to the bottom with them.. it's what we were made for. It's going to be marvelous for my space program as well.

Talk about selective reading... Your side out numbers us 12 to 1. Umbrella members should be filled up on that list being as outnumbered as we are. Yet, it is your coalition's best and brightest nations are up there. Pitiful

Blessed are they who take the first blows on behalf of the comrades who come behind them. Military history has proven to be cruel to first waves. It's just the beginning and you know that Zero One. In your mind, you know failure is the only way out of this for Umbrella. Didn't Agent Smith teach you to be more pessimistic?

No?

I was showing someone why using a 7 day counter in a war that's been on for two is silly.

You seem to be implying that the numbers matter right now.

1) There's a something about Mo9P's slots being filled in the first round which is irrelevant considering Umbrellailures didn't take part in that.
2) There's something about Mo9P being able to escape into peace mode because of the blown stagger, but he's said he isn't even redeclaring after this round.
3) Then there's that thing about you being buttmad about not getting the slots you think are rightfully yours.
4) Like D34th said, you guys don't like us and you've been "looking for a CB" for quite some time now. That in itself says all there is to know about the nice story in the OP: it's just an excuse. It's okay mate, CN traditions and all. You can't break those, because what would be left of civilization then?!
[/quote]

1) Nothing in the CB about Umbrella and the first round of roguery.
2) Yeah, the word of a rogue is [i]so[/i] reliable. Somehow I don't think Mo9P is going to delete after this round. We'll see.
3) The slots that do rightfully belong to AI. They were justifiably angy at being told to pound sand when they complained to Umbrella about it. Moreover, it has been stated in this thread that the nations that took the slots acted on their own accord. That may or may not be true, If it is true, it does not change the fact that AI was justified in taking offense when Umbrella refused to exercise common courtesy in resolving the infringement. However, if BIBO is official Umbrella policy, then it can be reasonably asserted that Umbrella leadership tacitly endorsed and condoned the infringement on AI's prerogatives by virtue of creating/maintaining/enforcing said policy. It is pretty tough to avoid liability in that case and Umbrellan efforts to do so are completely disingenuous.
4) True enough and it would seem that Umbrella intentionally gave them a reasonable CB. If their position is that it was not intentional, then the simple lack of courtesy in cooperating with AI is a valid reason in and of itself. Could AI have passed on the opportunity to go to war? Certainly. Were they justified in taking advantage of the opportunity? Certainly.

Bottom line is that Umbrella gave AI an opening and they took it. On its face, the CB is valid. Now let's just have fun watching the GRL climb to new heights.

Delete? Nah. I'm just not declaring any wars. There's a lot of puppet branded tech that needs to be handed out before my nation actually gets deleted.
