BSHx have a confed with TCol, we would be expected to declare war on Consone, following your logic? |

I find it very amusing that it takes 3 alliances to gang up to try and beat up a bunch of farmers...but we're still here!

All depends on The Colonies goals. If you assume their goal is to make H? victorious, then yes Consone should/will likely declare war on them. HOWEVER, we do not know their goals. The Colony could be having a territorial dispute with W, and they have decided the best course of action is to engage them in combat while they are busy fighting another war. It is also just as likely that The Colony does not like someone in W, or W's leadership, and have decided to go to war against them due to this small group of people. What we do know is that The Colony has only declared war on W, not all of Consone. Whatever problem they have, it seems to be only with W. Consone alliances will have to make a decision to support W in their war with The Colony, or leave it to W to sort out. This decision will likely be impacted once the nature and goal of The Colony is revealed. It is also interesting that it is only The Colony going to war, not the entire Dark Star Nation.

If you read the Colony's profile, it's pretty easy to see what their motivation is here. They like to jump into conflicts somebody else has already won to make themselves feel like military badasses. I imagine the reason none of WE's confederates have join to help them is that they are all tied up with their own much more threatening enemies.
You're just jealous their's another alliance being abbreviated to one letter now.

Aurordan...I've just read The Colonies profile and it didn't say anything about them liking "to jump into conflicts somebody else has already won to make themselves feel like military badasses." all I saw was a statement claiming they were military based, makes a change to all those alliances claiming they are peaceful but engaged in war ....WE are peaceful ...But please do not push us!!! (I got that from one of consones members alliance profiles). They are also ranked 18 in alliance rankings, not exactly small fry.

I was originally intending to leave this thread alone, but I feel that I must interject at the sheer offensiveness of Auroran's post.
Firstly, TCol are not wannabe "Military badasses", and your lack of knowledge about them shines through in your sweeping statement about their profile. A bit of history for you- TCol have been in two wars, one against ICON and another against LWO. The LWO one, they were less actively involved than the Cave or BSH but instead defended their cities and participating in the fifth tournament. The ICON war, they fought alone and you will not find any mention of it in the forums. Why? Because Jude only posted the ones that he was either winning in or hurting the opponent. He didn't like it when the shoe was on the other foot. Secondly, they did not join in order to make themselves feel good. I will say that much only, since if you are truly curious then mail Kale Weathers.

You may need to practice your inference. How much of it is spent bragging of crushing victories against much smaller or already beleaguered opponents? And I don't see where being a military alliance comes in. I have more respect for a generally peaceful alliance standing up for its allies and its ideals than a militant one cherry-picking easy victories.

Well how could I doubt the prowess of an alliance tested against such powerhouses as LWO and ICON? I'm not sure if this is making your point or mine.
I'm not. As I said, I've figured out why. |
