Fellow wolves,
As you know I have requested all your troop and diplo inventory.
Now to let you in on the action.
Our
very own members pepe, Brunin and Astral Projection have been attacked
by gigi, not once, not twice but several times. I have tried to solve
the matter through diplomatic ways but things have come to a point
where retaliation is our only option. WOTP tries to solve things in a
civilized way, but that didn't work out.
I have been working on support for a few days and I am happy to announce we have support from Dlord, GOON, Wise and even H?.
We
are focussing on gigi for the time being, the first wave of attacks
will be diplomatic, so my first request is to send out basic diplomats
to the following targest :
Bunkerville
Ionized
Solid Electronics
All cities belonging to gigi located at -181, 104.
send in scouts, thieves, spies, assasins and send me reports back if you get them, me ar any Beta rank.
If you have any questions please ask, do not feel you have to participate, but keep in mind we are a pack.
We will not fight this battle alone.
More to follow soon.
Best of luck.
Iduna.

Noooooo! Don't take gigi away! He was a philanthropist at one point or another
And why would you need 5 alliances to focus on one person? Why focus on someone right now? Are you going against somebody else later?
ps. You could have single spaced that, double spacing was wholly unnecessary

I am not amused.

You know, no one in GOON even knew who were we attacking. I don't know if WOTP wouldn't tell us or if no one asked but every time I asked no one could tell me...
Oh well, count my army out on this attack.

Same problem as Tubana - piss off too many people and it'll come back to bite you.

War is not a sparring match, nor a tournament. It is not intended to leave room for the enemy to win.

Thats the problem. 1. Go to war 2. Win or Lose 3. Loser get set back weeks, if not months due to sieges. Surrender? Why? Terms that the winners place on the losers tends to be overtly degrading. Many players are not attached enough to this game to allow themselves to effectively play as a nerfed puppet of their conquerors. Here are two resounding examples that I've seen... -Absorbed into winner's alliance Not voluntary and effectively there is an implied pressure to stay in. -Cannot build military and must allow 'us' to check anytime There goes 1/3rd of the game's content -Technically not as bad, but there is the send X stuff every Y time period. Yea, personally though... "You havn't sent anything." "Screw you." *Get's his cities conquered or razed.*

Problem with this "it's a war game, get to grips with it ..." is that this game offers nothing if you lose.
Months of tedious build-up? - wasted
The joy of having put up a decent fight? - Only battles with overwhelming odds are ever staged
Ability to recover from a crippling strike? - Zero, as long as individual players nurture their grudge
Strategic finesse advantage? - Non-existent for only numbers count
Problem with "... he brought it onto himself ..." is that at the next
turn someone will claim the same about you.
Because it is so, we players ought to exert self-restraint on
(a) our language and forum behaviour ... no point in cussing, gloating, goading, .... We are all just people with the same interest - to have some fun hours in front of the computer with like-minded chaps
(b) outright destructive play-style. The game is not yet balanced enough (heck it is not even developed enough) to tolerate destructive play-style.

This is what one of my points in the other thread was trying to get at - you said it a lot better - thank you.
