[/quote] Indeed, a member of BOC carried out what I assume is an unsanctioned attack on FORa. While this might not seem like The government of FORa instigated a sanctioned attack upon BOC. That is not "response" to BOC's attacks. Also, you might have noticed that FORa clearly stated that the raid is out of boredom and not really defense so I wouldn't consider this a "response" to any danger.

[/quote] Of course not, but perhaps a different method of response would have been wiser. I don't predict Alpha Omega making an issue about this, it's just something to consider. It is worth noting that the BOC member mentioned in the OP (roadkilla9) [i][b]is[/b][/i] government. Taking his actions as alliance actions is reasonable.

Ernsters Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 FORa could have responded differently had it been an attack of retaliation, however this doesn't seem to be the case. It seems to me that FORa is the aggressor in this war, by their own choice, regardless of who shot who first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingNai Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Sure, FORA and Saja had disagreements, but the game gets boring without a war right? I do think Sajasabie would do the same to a raider raiding our alliance member, just saying. So I can't support FORA cause of differing sides on raiding, but I support their reason for waring. A good show of power. Just be careful, don't anger the powers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TsarPrinceps Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 We are defending ourselves by establishing an example of what happens to people that attack us.

Captain Enema Posted March 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Oh, good.. I'm doing just fine then, survived two ground attacks. Going to be a fun little dust up.
