There's a link to my nation if you hippies want to stop cowering in peace mode and actually live up to that declaration of war you were all so proud of.

Going solely from a propaganda point of view, the peace mode argument has become cliché: it's been used way too much to try and degrade so many different foes in such disparate circumstances that it just comes off trite now. Doubly so with the specific situation of the NSO who I believe is outnumbered. I think going with another theme would be better. Again, solely from a quality of propaganda point of view.

It's too bad I can't use the nukes I've rebuilt on you. See, I actually fought in this war.

Focused to much on Infra, seems he'll take plenty of infra damage worth but won't fight well.

Edit: Just be glad its not the opposite and he has a ton of tech,

http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=196523

Technology 7,994.69
Infrastructure: 3,779.12

That's after 4 days of nuking he is just under 8k tech, tech makes a huge difference in nuke effectiveness.

He has 1.4 billion so he could have purchased himself a nice amount of tech, but didn't.

Would make sense to even buy himself up to around 1.5k tech during the war just so he can do so damage, although I guess if he wants to save money...

Most of it wasn't responding to your directly, most of it went off to talk other things.

tldr: I haven't just been launching nukes, but done another attacks as well. Also I was showing the difference in damages taken in response to CSN saying we don't have enough nations out of peace, but just showing how what we're doing is more tactically sound.

From my wars today,
Alliance and individual who took most money worth of damage today going by my wars and did the least amount of damage so far - CSN and Goose, Leader of CSN
Alliance and individual doing the most damage - NSO and Methrage
Alliance taking the most damage and doing second most damage - Fark

Unless you didn't CM or Nuke the others fighting you, I took the same damage as them. Monetary wise, I suppose that's likely true as I have more infrastructure than them, so what I lost would cost more to replace. I also have less tech. than them, meaning their two successful air attacks (you have no planes), two successful CM's, and two successful GA's will do more damage than mine. It also means that I'm not the one doing the nuking. So, please do continue to brag about how well you're doing when you haven't launched a ground attack in days, haven't had a navy for days, haven't had planes for days, and are limited to two nukes per day now with your warchest running out.

I'll give it to you that it is tactically sound to limit your exposure and do as much damage as you can on the way down. However, you cannot delude yourself into thinking you are doing anything but prolonging the inevitable. Your infrastructure disappears at a rate of 600 per day. You have no land, little tech, and no hope.

Now if you're suggesting I'm not fighting just because they declared peace with my opponents, it doesn't work that way. I was at war with everyone I could find in my range. I just peaced out several opponents. I'm in anarchy, so unless someone attacks me, what would you have me do? If you're alliance wasn't filled with cowards, I'd be at war right now. I'm not in peace mode. Tell your alliance to bring it if you think I need some new wars.

Unfortunately, the only alliance we haven't defeated that we were at war with is you. Just as unfortunately, everyone with any NS left is afraid to fight.

According to NSO, they entered the war while outnumbered to take slots away from their allies, to protect them. The truth is that if NSO would have the nads to actually make war, we'd have been in huge trouble after the GDA/UBD blitz. But all of us got to get ourselves reset and out of anarchy and declare on targets because NSO who actually had the NS to keep us offbalance put all their large nations in peace mode and allowed us to focus solely on the largest nations in the now surrendered alliances. Thanks for that, NSO. It's good thing you aren't the allies you said you were or y'all might have done some real damage.

[Ryuzaki]

I may not be a mod but still, knock it off. This thread is not for you all to argue about how much damage NSO is doing or anything else like that.

I was referring to monetary worth due to how high it is, so that's where my conclusion you were taking more value worth of money. I've been out of a warchest for a while, although the many Fark nations I'm at war with I manage to raid a good bit of money each day. True I haven't bothered with airplanes and navy anymore.
