Dave III Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Sometime last week: Kru: "Things are going well in the Stratosphere Marine Corps........too well.......as heir I don't have enough to do........guess I'll fricking make my own alliance." Now I'm sure many of you may be reading this internal dialogue of the former heir of the Stratosphere Marine Corps and thinking, "Why? why would I care?" I share this change in government because the story around it is quite amusing. Earlier today I received This message from the Captain of Theta squadron, "I think you should see this." along with a screenshot of a conversation between Kru and that captain. In which, kru begged for him to leave SMC and join a new alliance he wanted to make (United Nations Federation), he even said that the SMC Head of Econ would be joining him (lol this was a lie). 10:31am Kru reached out to try to hurt the very alliance he swore to serve, 15mins later he was banned from both the alliance and discord. With no one on his side he set out to start another micro born from the inability to work with others. Kru will not be missed, during his tenure as heir he attempted to implement policies such as, strict discord nickname regulation........that was it.....yea he was an old vestige of the merge between UNMC and TKTS, he was an honest to god displeasure to work with and my shoulders are nothing but lighter with being given a reason to eject him from SMC. There are few people that can get under my skin, so I congratulate Kru on his achievements in that department. To conclude, The Stratosphere Marine Corps wishes that things go well for Kru in his decision to forfeit his position as heir of a great alliance to start a 1man alliance with no protection or connections whatsoever. See you on the battlefield Kru ;) 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mergers often go wrong, and I've seen people try and un-merge alliances in the past. Given that he was the leader of one of the alliances that merged to make yours, it's natural that he should want to bring some of the members from his old alliance with him in a new venture. If you couldn't contact a few friends when you want to start a new alliance, I struggle to see how new alliances would ever get off the ground.

Dakotan Empire Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 He could've couped our alliance by making himself leader and removing the others that can get rid of him, so he definitely didn't have a plan to coup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly I didn't realise this was a DoW against a one man alliance. Regardless though it doesn't change much. This would have been better to work out privately rather than going public in the most salty way possible, which was the crux of my point. Even more so if it's an issue of post-merger tensions. Now both sides look pretty bad which probably isn't the way SMC intended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely agree that this could've been settled in private, but when an heir acts in the way that kru did and is subsequently banished, it is definitely out of the ordinary and warrants a public post.

Guest Zephyr Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 So this Kru fella wanted to make their own alliance and you shafted them for having said ambition? Am I the only one that thinks it's pretty normal for people playing a nation sim to talk about starting alliances with their friends and allies? When I think poaching, I think of some rando spamming recruitment messages to people they've never even spoken to before, not someone just looking for startup support from those around them. Even then, I think we're overselling the offence of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything other than what's been said in this post, so what has he done? He had the opportunity to coup as heir but didn't, and now you're refusing his safekeeping. You said he poached - what does that mean? Does it mean he approached members of his pre-merge alliance to see if they were satisfied with the merger? If so, I don't think it's that bad. Mergers don't always work out the way you'd expect and attempts at undoing them happen. So is that what happened? If not, care to share? Or don't. It's a slow day at work hence why I'm here 😛 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Kru was the bad guy here, he wanted to make an alliance with a few friends and now his previous alliance have stolen money and resources from him and are attempting to roll him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
