The "What war" thing was epic.

Just before we attacked in GWIII, I *loved* the total silence on the BBs from us. We had our enemies defecating bricks. :)

I dunno, Pacifica treated it all as a joke. Everyone else was wondering wtf had happened to us, though.

I remember making 2 speeches during GWIII, one just before, and one while getting slammed. I used to have such a flair with words, but I hate writing speeches.

Really? Remember reading in topics where people seemed rather impressed that even though there were 50+ Legion members reading the topic we were able to keep all of them silent...

I remember the night the Dove War broke out, for whatever reason I was awake at 3:45 in the morning when the call to escape to peace mode was announced on IRC. Five weeks later was much more pleasant, doing shots of Jäger, waiting for midnight to roll around while me, gayboi25, and Skrewer were preparing to pound our target in \m/. We came a long way in such a short time...

I remember he went to ODN and (after searching for his nation) he's still there but I haven't heard from him or skrewer in at least a year. :(

Woohoo!!!! :D

Even though getting AIM to work for our trip (nine times out of ten two of us would be in the chat room and the third couldn't get in) was a pain, us and gayboi25 had an awesome time beating on our targets.

We did! I seem to remember my favorite time was when we were beating up on some \m/ and some failhalla, right?

Ahh 6 anarchies and 2 zi's :) And never being anarchied myself during that war :). Good times, good times! :ave:

So I have to ask, what do you people think the largest reason so much as kicking was done during UJW?

Iron Wolf
02-09-2009, 01:42 AM
Much improved communnication (ours), and \m/ was organised as a tech raiding alliance. The usual course of action on a tech raid is to pick on a smaller nation with one hard hit, and keep no money on hand so if things go bad, you don't lose any money. No warchest, no staying power.

Also, while on the offensive, the attacker has the advantage of being able to stack attackers against single targets. in attacking, you are already more or less formed into bits and trips while defensively, you are either stuck on your own or others in your bit/trip are already in a defensive war and can offer limited help.

Also, hai MAX! :D

Since I joined after the war already started I didn't get to join a sqaud. So I can't comment on the organization. But I do know that my $40 million dollar warchest (it was big for 2007) was the difference for me in that war. I was actively fighting 3 \m/ nations. I could replace my airforce they could not. So after about 2 days I could bomb them with no losses to myself. I think some of them got themselves into bill lock.

Iron Wolf
02-09-2009, 07:10 AM
Lol! Forgot about the $20 million or so warchest I was lugging around back then. Damn, what I wouldn't give to be able to fight a good long war on a $40 mil warchest. :D

MrAdmiralX
02-09-2009, 07:38 AM
Ahh good ol war chests
GWIII had none and fought 5 FANs (no anarchy)
UJW had 80mil and fought 3 iirc (I didnt get countered :( )
