Step1 Arrack Batavia is a type of Indonesian rum made from fresh sugar cane juice and fermented red rice. It is a distinctive spirit with a rich history, particularly in Europe, where it was a key ingredient in traditional punch recipes. Step2 The tradition of Swedish Punsch originated in the 18th century when sailors of the Swedish East India Company discovered Batavia Arrack on an unplanned stop in Batavia (now Djakarta) on the Island of Java, Indonesia. They created a “punch” for the long sail back to Gothenburg, Sweden, and the tradition quickly took hold. The arrack is combined with lemon, flavorings and sugar to create a warming drink. Initially, socializing around a flowing bowl of warm, heady “arrack punch” was a pastime for the wealthy, as sugar, spices, and citrus fruits were luxuries. Step3 Limo is an extremely fragrant and very rare citrus fruit similar - but different - to Bergamot orange. Step4 Limoncino liqueur is a traditional Italian lemon liqueur, characterized by its bright yellow color and sweet, citrusy flavor. Use Limo (Step3) in place of lemon to make a special version of the Limoncino. Step5 Use SPECIAL LIMONCINO MADE WITH LIMO in place of lemon to make a very special version of the Swedish Punsch. Replacing the lemon with the very fragrant LIMO liqueur increases the alcohol content of Swedish Punsch and significantly alters its flavor, creating something completely new that is sweeter, warmer, much more aromatic and more powerful than traditional Swedish Punsch.

Because according his feelings just only Old Guard and FTW have nations over 100k NS Quote Additionally, we are announcing a new policy: a No-Fly Zone at high NS levels. The aforementioned alliances are hereby prohibited from having an upper tier. (This is defined as whatever we feel like at that moment - to be safe, I'd recommend having all nations sell down to below 100,000 NS.) We find Old Guard and FTW to be in violation of this policy. Trimming commences... now. See? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Guard was openly warned that aid was an act of war. They made the conscious choice to directly aid Armen. I'm not sure what they expected the results would be. I think you're trying to shift the blame since it was your VEP software that directed Old Guard to send that aid to Armen, and thus it is largely your fault that @Lan Mandragoran will be going to 0. Always blaming everybody else instead of taking accountability for your actions. It's what got CCC here in the first place. I informed our allies in Old Guard that we were rogue busting a couple months ago, they asked if they could help, we informed them we had it covered. Arminius also has access to all NATO non governmental channels. They were informed what was going on. Although i personally have enjoyed the chance to use you and your cohorts as target practice for alliance members that are varying degrees of rusty, I don't consider the alliance itself at war. We are just doing pest control. You're going to have to get more Doom Sphere people to "rogue" us for that to become the case. Unfortunately for Lan, Javier decided to grow a pair and actually attack someone instead of running back to Doom Squad immediately like he did two months ago. My hope is the big nations are able to make him pay for that choice. And I am increasingly regretting my vote for you for Triumvirate last year and pushing you to run again the next term. Seems like I would have maxed out GasX purchases but it would have been exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not really sure those nations have the capacity to bleed him. It's also important to note, that while Doom Sphere is not involved in this war, we don't recognize Nukes^6 as rogues, but a sovereign alliance airing out a grievance as many have before on planet Bob. I would also like to note, that Non Grata has consistently had its members do the same by ghosting or 'joining' The Wolves. And at present, your side maintains that it's justified and that their members are free to act as they wish. I'm certainly feeling as if there's a double standard here. Javier's actions are Javier's. The honest truth is he was advised against joining and eventually elected to do so anyway. He's a grown up, and he's allowed to make those choices for himself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are missing the part where OG had every opportunity to avoid Lan being blasted, but based on last minute advice from NATO and Polar Arminius denied it. Hopefully he see's the error of his ways.

Yeah well fortunately/unfortunately the highest proportion of NATO nations you all can hit is about a quarter and you’re sharing your affections with other alliances (I do appreciate the level of chaos you’re causing with messages and spy attacks though). There’s no point in filling the moat and adding alligators if it’s not likely alliance members will actually get action. I am also not the sum total of NATO government. I highly doubt you or anyone involved actually care about Armen, the alleged OOC attacks, or the supposed victim. You’re just jumping on an attractive CB to get some excitement (Which I have no issue with. I enjoyed my round with Cosmic Chocolate). If you actually cared about the subject of the attacks, you’d stop Streisand effecting it all over the airwaves. That is why I personally was reluctant to get involved at first.

Then you have no idea what you're talking about. Armen's OOC attacks have been an ongoing issue I have been concerned about for some time. It nearly ended in war on September 10, 2023, but I was able to handle the issue with AO from CCC. Unfortunately, before this most recent incident, he retired. If he hadn't, I think there's a high likelihood it would've been resolved diplomatically again. Quote If you actually cared about the subject of the attacks, you’d stop Streisand effecting it all over the airwaves. I generally avoid the content of the attacks themselves for just this reason.
