JimKongIl Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 The micro alliance named There Will Be Blood declares war on Umbrella. If you are wearing the There Will Be Blood alliance affiliation and you are not ok with potentially being counter attacked I would get off the AA now. If you want to step into war and most likely get pounded you are free to ghost the There Will Be Blood AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] My mistake regarding your intentions with this announcement; I didn't not think of ghosting as a likely explanation. I thought the peace offer should have been clear? Actually, it was a joke, as explained in the reason for peace; glad you didn't take it, because someone else had different ideas apparently.

JimKongIl Posted August 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 (edited) I'll never understand the mentality of nations in the top 100 with a +13 nuke advantage that choose to turtle. Three of my combatants were in the top 25 a day ago and now they have just rolled over and sitting at zero troops. Most rogues seem to be like suicide bombers once they launch their first volley they have little left. I expected more out of Umbrella TE. Edit: correction two are sitting at zero troops... the other just refuses to fight. Edited August 7, 2010 by JimKongIl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You don't know them you just took orders from the same master this round, right? I will say that I expected a better fight. 4 of you, including yourself have stopped buying troops even though you have cash and are active. Just lobbing the occasional nuke to keep me from DoWing others. One of the guys said that you all are not buying troops in the belief that will stop me from getting top casualties. I find that pretty laughable. Its obvious you guys have no intention of fighting for 7 days or longer, your only goal is to knock down someones NS in the first day or so. Kinda funny since I have no use for a flag and I never seek it. I would be appreciative of your attacks if you were committed to fighting for 7 days not 2.

Thomasj_tx Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 (edited) I wonder what TE would be like if there was no flag pimping. I bet it would be totally different and a lot more fun.

I thought that the dissimilar motives of the flag runners, the spoilers and the fighters made things more interesting but now I've changed my mind. The suicide attacks just make the game less enjoyable. If they were willing to bring a real fight it would be different. But now in their current form they are as dishonorable and impersonal as an IED planted by an unknown enemy. It has become just an SE alliance fighting a proxy war with little respect for TE game play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like any real TE players care about the flag any way. IED's, no. Strategy, AA building and inter-alliance banter. That is TE. And time to shed the SE ties. This is TE. Let's play THIS game.
