Micchan Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 To the world: if you dislike this you can kill IQ with few simple moves, create the orbis united nations and a giant MDP with all the relevant alliances in orbis, the MDP is activated only if one of the UN alliances is attacked by the IQ Can IQ beat the rest of Orbis in a war? No, so IQ has 2 options, split or accept the fact that they will never be able to attack an alliance without having the entire Orbis ready to counter, at this point you can play the game as if they didn't exist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BK's FA is basically "Ally with NPO and Friends then ayylmao around." Only person you'll get any kind of decent convo with is Curu.

Sure there's friendship, in many cases with paper, in some other without paper, but nothing stronger than IQ There's a lot of "I would fight you if only...", "I would like to split if only...", "I would like to form a new bloc if only...", and that "if only" is IQ, so you are the cause of your problem In this thread you said that you will never stop expanding IQ until you win, wainting to win is good an everything but having fun is more important, if you continue with this strategy you will certainly not be sympathetic while many others showed the intent to do something So the day of the great gangbang on IQ the get rid of the "problem" is very distant, but we are getting close every day, how many days do you thing we can stay without a world war or a big war who isn't a dogpile? 3 months? 6 months? 1 year? Sooner or later something will happen, you have that amount of time to try to get that long-awaited victory 49 minutes ago, Buorhann said: Actually, they could if their activity was high.

No way At best it ends like the Trail of Tiers with a war of attrition until no resources for IQ and white peace, and only if IQ can keep a very high activity to create a safe range between 1000 and 2000 score, Orbis is pretty big 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The games current neutral alliances are some of the most cowardly pixelhugging useless blobs of nation score in the last 2 years. What are they gonna do, scold IQ to death? Don't expect them to actually nut up. If you are banking on all these alliances banding together in order to "gangbang" IQ you are living in some fantasy land.

The pixelhuggers are pretty much all upper tier or whales, the score range where it is hard to find a free war slot in a war with IQ, the score range where IQ lose after 2 days, so why they should not join in a easy short war where after the initial blitz they are outside the enemy war range? Why risking to be hit for not joining the Orbis side? But i know that your point was "hey pixelhuggers do something!" Sympathy matters a lot, when you have a balanced war it takes very little to tip the scales on one side or the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sympathy matters a lot, when you have a balanced war it takes very little to tip the scales on one side or the other I wasn't talking about whales. I'm talking about leaders. The ones who control what these alliances do. Sympathy and PR matter when the scorn of neutral alliances matters. If neutral alliances don't actually do anything besides sit and whine then sympathy is inconsequential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
