Steve Buscemi Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 The reason why wars are so lopsided is very simple. No-one sets out to start a war they will lose, before pulling the trigger and starting a war, coalitions try to ensure victory before it starts, otherwise why on earth would you start the war. Making the situation more uncertain and unclear just means that coalitions will now "factor in" the uncertainty, and the only wars that would occur are ones where it is a complete curbstomp. The reason for this hesitancy is that losing a major war can set your alliance back years, sometimes never to recover. Spot on Ogaden. Wars are preplanned months in advance, like Disorder. Nowadays you have such a huge bandwagon that all you need to do is secure it and you win. So many alliances just sit back and wait to be apart of this bandwagon and avoid being targetted in any way (and by that I mean not doing.....anything, i.e. the MHA effect). With warchests what they are I would say that wars aren't the costly and that's why people bandwagon in. Sure, you lose a ton of tech in a loss, but I fought for nearly 3 months nonstop and took over 75 nukes and I'm still a decent fighting nation now. Many in NG are the same way. Can't say I have the warchest I once had or the tech levels, but I can easily fight another war already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvon Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 The Disorder War was not planned months in advance lol. No, they planned it in a matter of weeks while using a 6 month old CB and factions were just coincidently engaging in discussion with IRON "to arrange a brawl with TOP" for NG a couple months prior and just happened to come to fruition by pure chance during the Disorder War ... :facepalm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Zigur Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 The war was waged because neo-imperialists were planning to go on the aggressive. I know I supported the war wholeheartedly knowing the aggressive desires of NSO firsthand. If we did not do what was necessary there was a strong chance that the stability we enjoy today would not have come to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are literally retarded and every time you post you turn people away from whatever position you happen to be espousing. Takes a special kind of person to be that obnoxious.

AlmightyGrub Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 Don't think about war, think about love. I think of almost nothing but loving myself a good quality hippie until he or she can not see out of their crater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll sing "kumbaya my lord" in your doorstep until you change you mind about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
