The Stalemate
OsricWindsmir
This is a victory for neither side. eCanada didn't leave them with 3 regions, eUK have taken back more. Pulling out of the war when the tide turns is no victory it is cowardice masked by virtue. eUK says we surrendered, we might have pulled out but we didn't ask them to stop, so they did not win either. eCanada still controls part of eUK. Acacia, step up and admit you did not win, but you didn't lose either. The Maddog and the eUK government should do the same. Articles written by both governments and citizens of their respective countries claiming victory or that the otherside surrendered is a load of crap. This war ended in a stalemate, neither side can claim victory. Be happy it ended this way, eUK could have kept pushing and could have attacked eCanada. Acacia says he was coming for John Barlett and London but when when the tide turns it's "handing them our gold for no reason".
Now the government has spent A LOT of gold on this, lets see our rewards shall we? NE of Englan😛

ow. If you don't believe me check the page for those regions yourself. eUK said they were useless but that was mostly just bitterness. However though they are mostly useless, most of them are LOW, with some medium and NO HIGH. That won't help our economy. This war hasn't helped our economy (even though we were told the opposite), I don't know about you but my wages haven't gone up, the economy hasn't boomed. Now once I publish this i'm gonna get critisized from all those people who believed we won or someone else will critisize my past articles if they don't find anything here they can trash. That bothered me at one time, but now I don't care. I'm here to show you the otherside of things. I'm not some dog who follows what his CP tells him to without taking somethings into consideration. People commenting means people are listening, and i'm here to let you listen to the otherside. Nothing is wrong with taking a different stance, people deserve to know both sides to a story.

Grand Frere is happy as the Brolliance has not benefited. Acacia has done her job.
I fully agree with you that the war has become a stalemate, however I would have to say that the war is most definitely not over, the bitterness we caused the eUK will surely lead to more offensives on their part. That said more effort should be put into finding a way to finish this war.
I say we give N Ireland back to the Irish! And as for the activated MPP's, well they really mean nothing, as has been proven, whoever is on the defensive is almost guaranteed to win a war if their timezones are different...unless their President sucks then ragequits. Besides, If they attack us they activate OUR MPP's, which include a lot of european countries, thus making further attacks on the eUK incredibly easy, as we'll have allies online during their primetime!
Acacia is a guy...just telling you that for the second time 😛 now, as for the war, its hard to take regions when you have two countries in the same time zone attacking you. If I win once, I am immediately attacked by the other and thus my odds are dramatically reduced. To continue that course would be a waste of taxpayer gold. I think you have seen your wages hold because of the ludicrous inventory that was being held. We DID manage to burn through a lot of inventory and many owners have come to me to express as much. Minimum wage is also set to increase. Its tough to call a winner, your correct, and yes, rhetoric will reign supreme but thats all part of political posturing. You can't avoid that. To say there was no benefit though is a gross miscalculation...have we seen the full benefit? No, not yet, but you can be sure that a lot of stock got blown out. As to finding a way to finish the war, that requires full EDEN support and frankly, they have other priorities that do not include UK...the recent Russian invasion is an example. Keep criticizing though...I read everything you say and knowing your paying attention keeps me on track...just dont forget, I am a boy, not a girl 😃
Why not Face us 1 on 1 then if your so tough?
Tell eFrance to hold off, and let it be the UK vs Canada?
We showed up to the fight, your the coward that had your friend jump in.....
Dismortis how can you effectivly stick up for Acacia when you call him a girl right after he professed his manhood on this article? Also Rolo who are you talking to? There's no Brits here to talk to...
First and foremost, this is a wargame. Combat makes the game interesting. It draws in and retains players. It gives the economy a double-jump in the form of increased consumption and higher population. You personally didn't get a raise? Try jumping out of Harvesting, into Producing. The market is flooded with raw materials and Harvesting wages have dropped, but everyone who fights is gobbling down Wellness food. Get into Producing and feel the economic growth. Second, flexing our muscle in this way demonstrates Canada's strength to the world. We just gave the UK a savage kicking, no matter how they try to spin it. Reducing a multi-territory country to three zones in a week and chasing the country president right out of the game? That's swinging a big stick right there. On the "breaking even" front, any British posing about a counterattack is just that, posing. Phoenix doesn't give a damn about England, to Phoenix the whole island just an aquatic wart hanging off the flanks of the countries that matter. It's a backdoor to Europe; it is the anus of the continent. If they were to invade, the same tactic they used comes into play: retreat and counterattack during primetime, while getting a friendly neighbor to help tie up the works. As for material gain, one does not invade England for the materials. The dearly departed John Bartlett was correct in saying we were taking useless regions, because the whole island is useless except as a gateway to areas of actual value. Even London only has High Grain. Want to know who else has High Grain? EVERYBODY. Woop-de-doo. In extension of that point, our EDEN ally Norway has regained the High Oil region of Vestlandet, because we went in and bootstomped the Redcoats out. Good for Norway, good for EDEN, and the brits can get knotted X2
Don't let Acacia fool you. At this point in the surgical process it's still a girl.
Its true...wanna feel my brand new titties?
...learn something new every day.... for example, I had no idea London had High Grain
Hah. I knew you'd jump on this. Everyone knows what the deal is, Osric, and the deal is that we just beat the everloving shit out of the eUK. It certainly has helped the economy (even if you yourself didn't get a raise - seriously? That's your measuring stick?), it distracted several Phoenix nations from FAR more valuable targets, it showed the world that we're a force to be reckoned with and that the eUK really isn't as big as it tries to act (to put it lightly). Most of all, it was fun, and it brought a lot of much-needed activity back to eCanada. The invasion was a success overall, even if we didn't end up taking London. But really, looking at this objectively, who gives a shit about London? We've done what we need to do. Time to move on and find another way to make Phoenix look stupid again.
Osric, I'm technically eBritish if you need a target.
I mainly agree with you. But it's not the posturing and my-one-is-bigger-than-yours waggling, it's the disrespect of BOTH sides for each other.
"who gives a shit about London" Your CP does.
The problem with flamers and trollers on both sides automatically assume that the people they're trolling are blindly devoted to their ecountry.
😁^which is why it's good to keep and objective view to the world, and make your decisions on facts and not feelings
Or at least consider your feelings first.
But anyways, well said Master.
