  1. I was extremely vocal about that (mostly on IRC), fwiw, but this is a slightly different situation.

     

    Pantheon's allies were mostly involved in war already when they were hit.  Valyria's allies were not.

     

    Hence why I said somewhat similar ;)

     

    Saying that, I believe Pantheon's allies would have fared better against TEst last war than Valyria's allies would have coming to Valyria's assistance in response to this latest attack.

  2. avada kedavra!!!

     

    crucio!!!!

    Thank you for reminding me I am in a hogwarts influenced alliance.

     

    Feel my suffering, it's almost as if I'm being punished for disagreeing with cynic's vision of turning the syndicate into a sons of anarchy themed alliance.

  3. Anyone that wants to cry about the election go someplace else Donald Trump is going to be your next president if you live in the United States of America the greatest country this world has ever witnessed. He says he is going to make america great again and by god I actually believe the man ( Dont get butthurt atheists ) but our country isnt at its peak which is 2 times if not 3 times larger than it should be. Our military could be alot larger (It doesnt need to be but its a thought) technology wise. Our economy needs to improve. These are just thoughts and opinions of course because either way whichever candidate you chose one is going to be our next president and the other is going to prison (I hope). Cough Cough Benghazi.

     

    Hate to break it to you but the US never was great. It was just some lie told to gullible people 50 years ago which is perpetuated today in order to get gullible people to vote for anything deemed as being "great".

     

    By all means though, please reveal the specific time when the US was "great".

  4. The cap as far as I knew was common knowledge. Your econ minister should have informed you of it.

     

    Probably better off selling some of that food and providing monetary assistance to your fellow alliance members.

  5. You forgot the 4th option of where former paracov alliances and affiliated alliances either implode and reform new alliances aligned with the current ruling sphere or current paracov alliances do much like what Rose has done and align themselves with the ruling sphere. Such an event would see inevitable internal tension occur within the ruling sphere which would only be exacerbated further by the lack of an opposing sphere. Over time such internal tension will naturally and inevitably end in war.

     

    The nature of hegemonic spheres is largely cyclical, two spheres battle it out, one loses and the other becomes dominant, the losing sphere eventually implodes or becomes a fringe remnant, the dominant sphere becomes larger on new found success but inevitable internal drama and rivalry creates tension leading to the sphere breaking apart into opposing sides thus starting the cycle all over again.

     

    Now, by my guess we are in our roughly third, perhaps fourth, such cycle already and sure the current ruling sphere's dominance is certainly more pronounced but it still falls within the general cyclical pattern all the same. It sucks to be on a losing side opposing the dominant sphere but that is just the nature of the game at the end of the day.
