We didn't

A 31 city TEst nation that rebuilt to 2900 infra/city just got beiged this morning to the tune of about $300m in damages so there's another for the tally.

A TEst nation rebuilt to 2500 infra/city and then three of us hit him and ship beiged him and did 100m infra damage and 100m loot apiece.

Sorry to hear that. Too bad you guys are too proud to change your surrender terms.

The amount of damage I'm doing has only been increasing in the last couple months as I'm fine tuning my strategies, and Guardian's activity has also gone up in the last couple weeks. At this point my weekly net damages are about 5x what my weekly income was before the war. I'm curious to know why you devote so much time to arguing why TKR should surrender. You seem really pressed about the fact that they haven't. Are you saying that IQ are frustrated at the fact that we haven't surrendered but just don't want to admit it for fear of looking soft? I just don't understand what you're getting at. Alliances not involved in the war can feel free to go on about their business.

We were outnumbered around 120-60 in the upper tier and 40-10 in the whale tier by ParaCovenant during those wars (Proxy War, Oktoberfest, 168 Day War, NPO's First Time) and were still outnumbered in the upper tier during Silent War although not quite as much. ParaCovenant lost their upper tier advantage because Rose joined our sphere, most of VE's upper tier left to form Grumpy and were joined by several of UPN's upper tier, others joined Pantheon and GPA where they got rolled, and others fell behind because they had to rebuild their alliances' mid tier, took heavy damages themselves, or didn't manage their growth properly, and some quit the game.

I do think one important distinction between the wars you're referencing, and this one, is that in those wars, the loser was the aggressor, and wanted pre-mature peace before our side had a chance to take out their whales through submarine warfare (this was at a time when our side was outnumbered about 3:1 in the upper tier). In the wars that did not end in white peace, the additional terms were essentially in exchange for sparing their whales' infra and tanks.

Did this Acadia nation go into VM mode to get out of me kicking his ass for the 7th time? https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=12832

EMC funds obtained from raiding Acadia, Pantheon and UPN, so really just another sneaky way for Roq to leech off his allies, nothing new there.

It's not being counted in the coalition stats. Toggle between Conflict = All and Conflict = Knightfall and the last 3 weeks aren't counted towards Knightfall. https://npowned.net/pw-war-statistics/conflict/1/nation/147

ok cool. JtTeE and Synthesis just did a ton of damage and it's still not being counted towards Guardian's stats FYI.

Not sure if you can retroactively add the data about wars JtTeE and Synthesis were in from late October to mid November which is missing (they're running Guardian satellite AAs) , but can you add their data for the last few weeks since that's also missing?

I'm not going to read the whole thread, so I just want to say that out-damaging my opponents is fun. I also don't really care if it gets us better terms or not because it's not a means to an end, I'm enjoying this much more than peace time.

Can JtTeE and Synthesis get added back into the npowned war stats? They should be taking and dishing a decent amount of damage for our side.

Seems like someone in Godfury wasn't having fun being blockaded with no gas.

Great minds think alike!

The down-declares were mostly to make sure all of us had opponents we could fight to ensure we used our offensive potential as efficiently as possible. We did have several of us go 1 vs 1 against opponents to use our limited offensive slots more efficiently too. Whoever was hitting us with espionage was also keeping us busy... I lost 1233 planes to that, mostly in a 4-5 day period in round 2-3.

Might be a mistake with how you accounted for VM nations? Anyways, it was definitely more than just CoS and TEst keeping us and Grumpy busy. Guardian's bottom 40% or so were kept busy by IQ and our top 30% or so quickly got free of CoS/TEst and kept busy downdeclaring on Rose, Syndicate, Pantheon, SK, WTF, DB, Fark, UPN... From Oct 20 to Oct 31 (after which our ability to launch effective offensives was limited), Guardian launched 55 wars against CoS/TEst and 72 wars against other alliances, and had a total of 197 wars against CoS/TEst and 288 against other alliances. Grumpy's wars probably skewed even more heavily against other alliances.

It's actually an average of 22 for Guardian and 23 for both CoS and TEst. Close to half of Guardian (ie the 21 & below) were fighting IQ on the initial wave.

Only 3rd on aircraft killed. Gotta get back to work.
