AnCapistan Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Really? So let's look at the numbers. You attack the the weakest alliance in the Doom House coalition, GOONS, an alliance with a staggering 13k ANS and 900 nukes but you leave the two biggest alliances (Umbrella and MK) who have 90k ANS/2000 nukes and 50k ANS/3000 nukes respectively, the ones that will do the most damage to the NPO (the alliance you swore to protect), virtually untouched? Why? You wonder why everyone considers your side to be a side composed of paper tigers. This is why. I think I can speak for a lot of people when I say, is this the best you guys can do?

oinkoink12 Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 There arent any allies left, so who cares. Let them kill goons, what we can rebuild for about 150 mil total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supercoolyellow Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Yes, a mediocre general will attack his opponent where they are weak, but a truly great one will just bend over and take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandwich Controversy Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 General PapaJacky literally believes wars can be won simply by ignoring the upper tier.

legion-x Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Ive been playing this game for almost 5 years now and the one thing i can say is though many have a bad history with the NPO, they have never been stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moridin Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Why does anybody think these sort of idiotic callout threads will actually bring about some meaningful change from the other side?

Take TPF, we have 1 nation that can fight anyone in umbrella's top 10. I'm sure you guys would love to have us take a suicide run at it, however we will fight the war the best way we can. We presume you guys want to make this as close to a war of extermination as possible, so we have every right to fight to our advantages and play for the long term goals.

Letum Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) Look, I understand the point of taunting and calling people out and all, but do you really think we are going to base our strategy on what (mostly our opponents) decide to say in a public forum? You will have plenty of time to evaluate our strategy when this is over. Also, if it really bothers any of you, are we going to see another "pre-emptive" strike?
