Normally people post their war declaration AFTER they get their first kill ....

CC might not be happy that you are implying that they called you in. If they didn't call you in, calling them your FDP in the war declaration isn't wise. If they did call you in, then they're pretty pathetic.

Actually, PoD's countries are so crappy, even our restarts can be breakers ... if we're killing PoD.

Thats pretty pathetic, PoD. Normally restarts with 50k jets aren't breakers on original countries.

After our AB FS, the countries we hit were ranked: 2nd, 8th, 16th, 17th, 19th, 24th, 29th, 35th, 40th, 55th and 72nd in Mercs.

With 80 countries in Mercs, it appears to me that 9 of our 11 targets were in your TOP half and only 2 were in your BOTTOM half.

Since you obviously have no clue what the fluff your talking about, keep your mouth shut Rockman.

Dedlysmurf - you bounced 5 ABs on the #2 ranked country in Mercs, and didn't break with any at all. Kinda funny to include that country as one that you ABd. At least a few of the countries that you did break with ABs had way more than 10k tanks before you started ABing.

nof (#1254) was your #1 country correct? After we ABed him, he was your #2 country correct?

You successfully ABd two techers, one of which is just 4500 acres 1.56m networth. The rest that you ABd were all cashers, and were not our breakers.

3 of the cashers were about 2.2m networth, 3 were about 1.8m networth, and 1 was about 1.2m networth. Thats 9 countries that you ABd, I guess the other two you were talking about were ones that you thought about ABing, but didn't actually do any successful ABs on.

You ABd one of our breakers, that's it. Pretty pathetic target selection.

I was talking about The Hague (#1054) as the one who you bounced 5 ABs on, and counted him as someone that you ABd. Nof (#1254) was the ONLY breaker that you successfully ABd in your entire AB FS.

I count 9 countries that you ABd, 7 of them cashers, 2 of them techers, and only 1 of the 9 over 2.5m networth.


I guess a successful AB FS is one where you manage to AB 1 breaker. Thats a pretty high bar to set for future AB FSs.

You got 5 BRs on on #1217, and no ABs, and you destroyed under 1000 buildings. That's not what other people call successfully ABing a country.

You ABd one breaker. That's it.

you need to AB at least 3/5 of a country to actually damage it, if it can be build again in 40 turns or less then the AB was a complete and utter failure

i hope focus doesnt feel the need to join this war without being called in. PoD was legit called in and if 25 countries are enough to have rockman call a 207 country clan in, fluff on him, leaves the door wide open for PoD to claim moral victory and makes rock look foolish. why doesnt mercs or salt kill them, they are allies no? and not struggling with us...


the best part of this is that the same people asking focus when they are gonna wipe pod off the map are the people that told me to call in allies. i hardly did that at a mere 32 countries.

mdevol - PoD has 32 countries, I don't know where you got the 25 number from.

CC had 195 countries at the start of the war (179 tagged), and needed to call in another 32 a couple of days in. We made no indication of asking for any help, you're the ones who are looking foolish as always. I also was not aware of anyone asking Focus to kill PoD.

You also asked why we don't kill them, when we'd already killed 5 of them. You need to pay better attention. We had already killed over 15% of their tag within 7 hours of their FS, even though we werent turn saving at all, and they came in with pretty decent sized cash stockpiles.

CC having to call for help when the numbers are even (CC in fact had a 3 country advantage at the start of the war) makes CC look pretty pathetic. But that's nothing new for you, is it?

I got 25 from the EE clan page that shows 25 countries in the tag PoD, 1 being in protection. looks like you have killed 8 of them, that being 25%. i ask why you dont just kill them because its only 2 strings and by the posts on this forum you guys clearly are confident in your advantage. we fell victim to a poor showing on regular members this set and had to scramble to find new ones to fill the void, and 2 have dropped playing as well as one of our leaders, we felt that was enough of a tilt of the scales to justify calling in a 2 member tag to even out the numbers rather than calling in a much larger ally and smashing you guys.

as for who is asking...pain knows, he and i both have the logs. no need to throw dirt on that one in ffat.

but im done posting on ffat about this for the remainder of the war

Ok in defense of CC

Last set when they FSed SALT, SALT had a networth advantage, If SALT had been more active the war would have been more interesting, but I would say CC had a clear advantage after the FS even with the miss matched networth, if SALT had walled a little bit more then they could have had a chance of victory.

Also when CC attempted to kill you Rockman, we could say the Networth once again should be taken into account, to the point it was impossible for CC to stay in range.

CC was too nice, they let both Mercs and SALT get prepped and build great countries, they should Had FSed both of you when Mercs began their Tech phase, and add someone like TPV or SOTA to make it kind of even.

In the end, Starting numbers are somewhat equal, but FSes tend to blow that fairness away, if you want a fair war, the ones doing the FS should have a 15% country disadvantage as a minimum, unless the FS sucks or both have max turns on hand.

Networth should be taken into account: When you're 200 million networth, you can't afford to use turns and attack back. And with 72 hours left, whats the point? FSing in the last 72 hours is extremely lame, as is hitting a tag 1/2 your size.

Mercs and Salt were not prepped for war. Its why our FS caught CC by surprise.

the main problem is FS's are overpowered, id rather see game changes to make it easier for a good or bad performance to matter

a few days to recover

rather than being able to kill an insane % of the number of countries you attack with in the FS day 1 and day 2

the problem is assuming = numbers means FSer wins

then how much smaller should the FSer be? 10%? 20%?

what then happens if the target pre-empts? its even more lopsided, and its still lopsided if both had turns saved, or if an immediate counterstrike is scheduled

its just a bit too meta, the attacker has to know how prepped and responsive a target is to judge the proper amount of firepower to bring to bear, and if you guess too low you lose so most people would bring extra

at least with fewer turns on hand and fewer readiness regained in the old days there was a lot less decided initially but now even an even war can be over in a few days

and when a war is over its over faster because the killing up now takes a bit more turns than killing down, where it used to be significantly the other way

lets all just agree wars are dumb and have a netting comp next set :P
