I mean here is my suggestions lol. 10 day war, why you ask.... are you that uncultured TCW party time, why you ask it was a party to me at least compared to the last war lel. TCW emu wars, why emu strong of course Between a Swamp and a Hedge, this legit sums up the war for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

namukara Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Thanks to everyone for a good-natured, enjoyable and non-toxic conflict. Long may the ooc drama be banished from pnw wars, and may we never return to anything like the state we were in in the last global. I'll now go rebuild the infra tcw nuked out of existance and tcw can go rebuild the infra my infra removals fleet confiscated, both parties safe in the knowledge that we don't hate one another. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have agreed to the following terms for peace between our Spheres, which will take effect starting at update tonight. 1) tCW sphere formally surrenders to Hedge and Swamp Spheres. 2) All existing wars will end to conclusion, (peace will be granted if both warring nations agree), no new wars to be declared after peace officially takes effect at next server update (aka 2 hours). New wars declared after peace is declared, will be worked out amicably between alliances. 3) 3 month nap between Hedge/Swamp, and TCW sphere, which includes all protectorates less MicroPock. This NAP will end at update on December 1st. Signed, Members of Swamp, Hedge, and TCW's Sphere... I am too lazy to get signatures for everybody. On behalf of the members in Hedge, I want to thank Swamp for their hard work and dedication to this fight, and I would like to thank the nations we fought in tCW's sphere. Despite your overwhelming odds, you were all classy opponents, and its nice to have a war where we are not at each others throats and can fight with at least a little bit of humor and grace. Let's hope this becomes the norm and not the exception in orbis going forward. Note: Morningstar is not included in these peace terms. Umm who u? U want some rum?

Grave Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) I do want to clarify that the length of this war is purely a mechanics and numbers problem. The tank changes just make it even easier for the side with more planes instead of the side with less planes and the number advantage us and Hedge had added on to it. From start to finish our opponents made the best possible tactical choices that conserved 10s of billions of unnecessary losses during the war and much more if they had been more interested in stroking their ego than the well being of their members and anyone laughing at them over it is simply too ignorant to see the bigger picture.

Kamala Khan Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Props to all parties for their conduct and the lack of toxicity, I’ve got to say, I’m impressed. Given how the buildup to the war went, I was expecting this to be way more toxic than it was, glad I was wrong. Props to both sides for not dragging it out forever out of spite. Hoping this is the start of a new era of wars! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While we absolutely needed to correct away from 8 month globals, this seems a tad bit of an overcorrection. Where were the twists? Where was the counterplay? Adaptations to evolving situations? Evolving situations at all for that matter? 😕 Meh, I guess I shouldn't be expecting quite so much from TCWsphere, especially with how outnumbered they were. Well, GG, hope the next one's a bit more interesting. At least it wasn't toxic, outside of the inevitable small dramas of course. I'll agree with the general sentiment that that much is a very welcome improvement You are right. Hedge should have switched sides to spice things up abit. Next time. In all seriousness, I do agree with you there wasnt a big "wow" event for the viewers. I personally, didn't forsee one happening this war simply because of how the world is now. It was important to us in Hedge to show the wars don't have to be the mess that we had before. We went in, achieved our goals and got out. Was it shorter than expected? Most definitely but thats ok. So thank you to Swamp for all your hard work. It was truly a pleasure. Good luck in the future. TCWsphere you were fun to fight against. Thank you for keeping it classy and respectful. Hope the rebuild is as quick as this war. 3 FORMER LEADER OF COTL. PLEASE GROW INTERNALLY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kosta Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Awesome war guys. Large thanks from TF to our allies at The Swamp (+ Hedge) for a great performance and to our gracious opponents over at The Commonwealth sphere. This was a quick, classy and non-toxic war which has set a precedent for the wars to come. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartarus Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 5 hours ago, Seb said: over 1k players across more than 15 alliances. This is definitely a global even though a good deal of alliances didn't participate. Shrug, e404 accepting 150+ people inflates these numbers. I heard that the technical definition of a global is 10 or more alliances in the top 20 involved on both sides combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"For an alliance war to reach Great War/Global War status, it requires at least half of the top twenty alliances to be involved" That is the current wiki standard. Probably needs updating, especially if we remain in a multi polar politics. 11 alliances were in the top 20 when the war started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably needs updating, especially if we remain in a multi polar politics. 11 alliances were in the top 20 when the war started. I've always believed since Paper's Please that we should have a three tiered system of minor wars, major wars and then global wars. Globals should probably be upped to 15+ of the top 30 alliances fighting. 7 [11:52 PM] Prefontaine: But Keegoz is actually bad. [11:52 PM] Prefontaine: He's my favorite bad leader though.
