Rozalia Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 What situation? We're losing some wars, boo-hoo. Been there done that before, it's no big deal to lose some infra. We've learnt new things within Vanguard, we've also learnt that our opponents lack spines, as per hitting an alliance like 1/3 of their size. Also fyi, this announcement is totally serious. No disrespect but it just comes off as a form of whining to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Mustang Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) What situation? We're losing some wars, boo-hoo. Been there done that before, it's no big deal to lose some infra. We've learnt new things within Vanguard, we've also learnt that our opponents lack spines, as per hitting an alliance like 1/3 of their size. Also fyi, this announcement is totally serious. Can we be honest about things for a second? You joined a bloc with the #1 and #2 alliances (or was Rose still #3 when y'all joined? Can't remember). Any meaningful conflict you would have gotten into would have involved you taking on alliances double or triple your size (I assume you're talking strictly membership numbers). You;d have to get down to SK at #8 to get an alliance that was a similar number to you, and their ANS was substantially higher than yours anyway, so still not exactly the most even conflict. I'll give you guys props for fighting on in the face of some terrible looking odds, but come on. You had to realize this sort of scenario would likely happen at some point, even if you didn't think it would be Mensa. EDIT: Also Saru's right, you started off closer to half their size both in membership and NS. I have to admit there's just no escape from reality I really think you should... open your eyes Edited August 23, 2015 by Roy Mustang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By what metric are you 1/3 of their size? I'm just going to assume it was a hyperbole.

Spooner Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) You have 60% of our members, that's over half, and surely not a third. Before we declared war, our alliance was 62,000 in score versus your 32,000. You're making yourself appear to be smaller than you are to score pity-points. Yes, we're bigger than you, so why use clearly incorrect figures? Edited August 23, 2015 by Syrup Quote ☾☆ High Priest of Dio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that they weren't geared up for war, or the bad composition of their forces (very weak in air, too many ships, missiles and whatnot) are not our problem.

Fair enough, if misleading. For what it's worth though, your link only shows you had a third of their soldiers. You actually had the edge in ships, missiles, and nukes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I assume you are just giving proof for the "1/3" claim to be an exaggeration? The only other figures I see are preparation levels. Not size.

Spooner Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I remember when MENSA attacked VE, we had a much larger military (but less alliance members, of course). Did they whine about how we were 4x their size? No, because it's ridiculous. Quote ☾☆ High Priest of Dio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you provide a link without explanation when someone asks "where did you get this number", you are defending said claim.

Yeah the world to back us up from a coalition that sought to backstab even their alleged "friends." And of course we're sitting back looking perdy, it's what we do best 1 Quote "The happiness of the people, and the peace of the empire, and the glory of the reign are linked with the fortune of the Army."

MrHat Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) Jesus a joke turned into shitshow. No one's whining, we were isolated in a bloc with #1 and #2 ofc we were going to have to take on a bigger alliance, and that's fine. Mensa is putting up a good fight and I'm having fun. Everyone else can ayyy lmao and no one bats an eye. We try to make a terrible joke and get !@#$ on Edited August 23, 2015 by MrHat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
