Daniel Storm

If you're going to flamebait at least try to be comprehensible. 3/10

Hitting Empyrea only and expecting you guys not to counter for them would have been the naive option. The biggest threats were eliminated first and thanks to that GPWC has faced near-zero resistance carving through Coalition A's low tier and bathing in your loot and burnt steel. You need to take a step back if you think the path of entry most beneficial to TKR (Only hitting Empy and giving TKR et. al. the option to counter) is the correct one for GPWC.

I'd like to take this time to remind Coalition A that you wouldn't have had to fight GOONS or GPWC if you hadn't attacked them first. There sure is a lot of !@#$ing about them on here considering that y'all literally dragged them into a war they had no intention of joining. Imagine sacrificing the low tier just so you could have another thing to whine about on the forums ?

You're welcome ?

Micro Affairs subforum when.

In answer to the OP I'll fight for as long as it takes for Coalition A to be defeated. I'm always thirsty for blood, and the Guinea Pigs are always hungry. I don't particularly care how Coalition A is defeated, it can be by their own admission or by the rolling going on for so long that they cease to be relevant. I also don't care if it takes 2 months or 2 years. War is the only time this game is remotely interesting anyway.

2 weeks? That's pretty optimistic chief. I think 2 months is more likely.

You say that as if the impact on recruitment is equally spread across both coalitions, it might be if this were an even war, but it isn't. Naturally the Coalition that is getting absolutely slapped below 4.5k (you guys) will feel a greater impact on low tiers and new recruits. Once again, that can be ended at any time by DMing Sphinx or TheNG and admitting defeat. From what I've observed on this side of the pond our recruits have been absolutely thriving on the plunder your coalition provides. Take the current #1 for Soldier kills in the entire war, a green NPO recruit 4 months ago who has amassed a fortune of pixels and experience tearing through all the yummy targets y'all provide. imho War is the crucible that forges the best recruits an alliance can get, provided you haven't lost tier control and can give them breathing room. If your argument is that we should make concessions to Coalition A because Coalition A is feeling the weight of defeat and can't recruit I don't think you're going to get far unfortunately. Ultimately its a free market and recruits will go somewhere they can have a reasonable expectation of prosperity.

If the war isn't enough of a burden to overwhelm other aspects of the game like your loyalty to your alliance then how can it be damaging to the health of the game like you were spouting earlier? I wouldn't leave my alliance over a little rolling which is my point. The war is a completely natural part of the game that has continued for so long with the consent of all parties involved. All these moral appeals to Game Health from your Coalition are baseless and hold no value.

I don't see how the game suffers from Coalition A voluntarily being rolled for 6+ months. Player choice is an important part of every game and your leadership has clearly chosen that they want the war to continue for the foreseeable future, and you've clearly chosen to endorse that decision by remaining a member of a Coalition A alliance. If war was truly untenable for your leadership they would surrender, and if it was untenable for you you'd leave the alliance. Neither outcome has occurred, which means that both your leadership and you as an individual want more war. There is absolutely 0 onus on Coalition B to make concessions or capitulations to Coalition A when we've won the war and gain economic ground against you every day. It's on your leadership to admit that they've been defeated and that this set of circumstances is no longer acceptable to them.

It's interesting how many Coalition leaders, mostly from Chaos are in here talking about how peace is possible if only the terms were revealed. Meanwhile KETOG leaders like you and the guy that mass spied GOONS and told them to get bent have taken actions to drag outside alliances into the war against you, and in your case outright stated that you want a permawar. I'm not sure what kind of crazy-ass good cop/bad cop foreign affairs strategy Coalition A is running, but maybe take a step back and reevaluate lmao.

Well you're right about one thing at least.

I get that your posts are basically memes but post more real memes and argue less thx. We have dozens of other threads for the exact same conversation we've been having for 4 months, this one must remain pure.

Did you forget Rose or did we finally stop pretending that Rose isn't a part of KETOG?

War is peace.

That's a lot of words from someone who hasn't fought an offensive war in over a month. If you truly believe Coalition B is a game killing hegemony that shouldn't be allowed to win then you're being a pretty bad citizen of the game by not fighting us at all. Mil up or shut up.

It's been 4 months, how long did you think you set that VM timer to chief?

How about having the 50% resource production bonus only apply if you have enough Infra for your improvements. It would be a significant cut to the productivity of improvs without even destroying them.

This guy was able to conduct 10 MAPs worth of attacks on me with only 6 MAPs. Your 3s timer doesn't seem to have fixed things.

The irony of these changes is that all the power players @Alex is trying to nerf have already made their money. All you've done is make sure nobody else can catch up. Personally I only baseball to get out of bill lock so this doesn't affect me. But the fact that your solution to baseball power players getting rich is to give them an unassailable head-start is hilarious.

I'm proud of you for not posting this in Alliance Affairs, baby steps.
