Popular Post Placentica Posted April 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2019 (edited) Recognition of War So, I guess welcome back. That didn't take long. But you gotta admit, hitting Alpha seems pretty lame. We've been irrelevant for years, don't you know? On top of that, doesn't look so good when you can't handle your own business against an alliance who hasn't even existed for the better part of a year, and you have to call in extra help. Not mad or upset, just disappointed in you Oblivion. I thought you liked to fight or something? Anyway, we've noted your 11 nations on your AA and also will keep watch on those two 3000k infra whales that left after the war started. https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=24900 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=63120 But it's fine, we expect them to say in that AA, and not use another AA's protection for any other purpose other than pixel hugging. This includes jumping back after bulking and declaring wars. On a serious note that is purely OOC: Hitting nations who are just coming back to play a game is in poor taste and reeks of cowardice. When I was lobbying to have the SA folks rejoin the game, one of the selling points was a new political environment and not the same boring ones. If you want to further the dynamics of the game, this isn't the way to do it. Edited April 28, 2019 by Placentica 5 35 Quote Hello!

Popular Post Buorhann Posted April 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2019 While I'm indifferent about the situation, do remember that SA bailed with a mechanic to avoid a war. This isn't TEst or anyone else that you have a history with, this is Oblivion. I don't recall you guys having any beef before. It could possibly be that Oblivion saw fully built up nations and wanted a fight. >one of the selling points was a new political dynamic and not the same boring ones >still tied to the same people since years ago 2 1 8 1 Quote Warrior of Dio https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfPCFQfOnLg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want us to hang banners and welcome you with hugs? This is just what your alliance needed since your member base are like dead weight, they need a little shake to get them into the game they log into every couple weeks. Our community has a near 100% daily activity. You will see that ingame come wartime. So maybe look into that shit before you post about things you know nothing about. I'm going to give you a short history lesson, seems you need it, will most likely be a waste of my time. Go back and look at our contributions in Oktoberfest, in 168-Day war, most of our guys date back to those days. Then, go look at damage ratios in all proceeding wars we were involved in along with SA. Go ask GOB, your allies even. Now net ratios have a limited value and loss is a loss. But dead weight is one word that doesn't apply to us. Just because you get dogpiled and can't keep planes against 3 attackers, doesn't make you dead weight. We've always fought hard, using weapons that do the most damage in both wins (conventionally) and losses (targetted conv strikes and nukes). And for the love of Alex, which is it, are we plotters building a coalition or dead weight? 4 2 2 Quote Hello!
