Seerow Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I am sad it took 2 pages before Diskord's name came up. That guy was the best CN has ever seen, and I hope he comes back to full activity in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercyFallout Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 The best fighter in CN is [whoever has access to the best guide]. Also the ones with the best luck. Lavo_2, I'm looking at you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mixoux Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Most of these responses sound more like what you would expect from a popularity poll. In this era, that's all it really can be. Every nook and cranny of the war system has basically been discovered and polished for some time, and now, 90% of the alliance war guides out there say pretty much the same thing. So in the end it really comes down to who has gotten mention of their skills, not those who fight well all the time but are never discovered.

DogeWilliam Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Most of these responses sound more like what you would expect from a popularity poll. What do you expect? It's silly to say who the best individual fighter is. Best military alliance is the question that is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Virginia Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Rebel Virginia!The only person to ever beat me in a duel, or even come close to me in number of individual wars. Your acknowledgment of my greatness has been noted, but my vote still goes to Doitzel. Not even the mighty ODN could ignite his Hindenburg.

kerschbs Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Back when it mattered, Diskord. He had a great mind for cn warfare. Nowadays its mainly preparation that wins wars, not skill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alter Leader Nabla Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 (edited) Diskord in his time, Matt Miller for this war. 519nigras was quite good as well Edited May 27, 2009 by Alter Leader Nabla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enderland Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Matt Miller for this war. Somehow I don't think he would agree with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayOvfEnnay Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 While I agree that it takes some degree of skill to be "good" at war, and a lot of preparation (along with building your nation by infra:tech ratio's that you see adequate), it seems much easier to judge the best alliance at war. Military prep, general ability of all members, avg. NS, and a little bit more intelligenceis required for this. In terms of a single nation, if I had to say, it'd probably be Franzjosef.

defroster Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 can you click buttons, determine which number is bigger, and remember a 6 step list IN ORDER? Then you too might be the best fighter in CN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Republic of Roma Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 This is easy. Doitzel. Without him NPO would still exist today. He took down NPO and fundamentally changed CN. As for physical damage, I'd say DaleGribble from FAN for surviving so long and launching so many nukes, even if he fought a little dirty and deceiving, I'm pretty sure he went further in a single war than anyone else including Diskord. But I don't think anyone has survived as long as I have without going into peace mode, nor launch as many nukes in a 60-day period and having all of them hit with precision against even large nations over 10k infra.

Sal Paradise Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Simple knowing what to do when a war pops off. Being able to sacrifice everything to strip down your nation for war. Knowing how to do neccessary actions to give yourself an advantage in both air and ground. Being dominant and using the game's war mechanics to your advantage.Yeah maybe a lot of it is dictated by luck but you need a fair degree of skill to be able to pull off wins in battles now. I know it's hard to fathom a simple question being taken as just that, a simple question but I don't think we should take every single thing philosophically either. There is a lot of taking what I would call "the basics" that's been excessively parsed here to make it look more complicated. Yes, many people don't do a lot of the things you've described. But that's not a lack of skill; it's ignorance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, many people don't do a lot of the things you've described. But that's not a lack of skill; it's ignorance. Not quite. Think about it as a poker game, a lot is predicated on luck but playing your angles correctly determines whether you are a good poker player or not.

You haven't drawn any comparisons between poker and Cybernations. The analogy fails. I can't think of any adequate comparisons between the two games that wouldn't be either so superficial as to be meaningless or require huge stretches of logic. Perhaps you could clarify what you mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermes Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 It does, doesn't it? Attacking casualties? That is how many soldiers of yours that died on the attacking end. Defending is how many soldiers died on the defending end. Total is the combined number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of any adequate comparisons between the two games that wouldn't be either so superficial as to be meaningless or require huge stretches of logic. Perhaps you could clarify what you mean. Well, in poker you have to be able to trick your opponent and keep the advantage while looking as innocent as possible. Shielding your moves and intentions you know when to fight or to back down. Similarily in CN you should know who to attack and when to attack. Exploiting holes in your enemy's game is no different than finding the weaknesses in your opponent and taking advantage of it. Although in the end the cards you get are based soley on luck how you play those cards are ultimately the keys to success. Hope that makes more sense.
