To be clear.....

[Mr President]

I know some nation leaders are allowing their top 10 states to be grabbed 2, 3 or more times in a 36hr time frame.. I, am not!

I'm not here to ruin anyone's state and I have no intentions on aggression to anyone however, I will not just be land farmed all set. You hit me more than once in a 36hr period, there will be a military response. I could easily be killed however, do you really want me as a thorn in your side for sets to come? Take your one hit and move on. No need to rape the hell out of my land.

What state number are you again?

[Mr President]

#333

It's fascinating to see players like MrPresident and Max Logan get so irritated by being grabbed.

How have you played this game so long and haven't noticed that SAs create a symbiosis between the attacker and the defender. Attacker gets land and defender loses less land on the next hit. Assuming there will be a next hit, then it's a win-win for both. No? The only time you should be annoyed by being attacked is when you are not expending the "next hit".

Yes, there are occasions when you have more land than the attacker and you lose "too much" land. Annoying, agreed, but no reason to delete your state. If you are stocking and you are actively land grabbing, then you are likely to lose a lot of land too. Don't like it? Go top5 and you lose less land. But you also produce less, because your costs are up. Sounds like perfect balance to me.

Version #1:
#2 had about 29.5k land. Got hit twice by a state with 90k land. #333 lost 1.5k land.
Version #2:
#2 had about 29.5k land. Got hit once by a state with 90k land. Got hit once by a state with 30k land. #333 lost 3k land.

No, version #1 is not worth declaring war.

Perhaps you would also be fascinated to learn that maybe, just maybe....... I am trying to create a little drama in a boring set. Perhaps, hypothetically speaking of course, a leader draws a line in the sand, knowing that eventually someone will cross it and then some action could happen. Who knows, this is of course, hypothetically speaking of course.

I'm well aware about the game mechanics and grabs. Of course, I am also well aware that the more land I have, the better score I will have. I wouldn't need GB protection if nobody grabbed me :) Maybe the next post will be, anyone who grabs me will receive 20 destructive spy missions. There are no rules in the game that state I must accept being attacked.

[Max Logan]

Trump is that you?

[Divine Intervention]

Trump is that you?

The best negotiator! he'll grab you and make you pay for it! :P

[Max Logan]

The best negotiator! he'll grab you and make you pay for it! :P

And use the land to build a wall!

[northbabylon]

Dude, let’s build walls to help defend against ground assaults and SAs

[Max Logan]

True, true. Though most wars do get fought out in the air now a days.

[Divine Intervention]

True, true. Though most wars do get fought out in the air now a days.

could have Wall Tech. The more tech you get, the higher the wall! all the way into space :tt1:

[northbabylon]

This idea is getting better and better

[Max Logan]

Lets all build walls!

There should be a unit - Mr. P sanctioned Walls.

It gives 5 net per unit and consumes nothing and is built by converting your infantry!

[northbabylon]

It’s also built buy using another States money

[Max Logan]

Raul, he is mexican

[northbabylon]

This is true. We will all have walls built and Raul will pay for it

[Max Logan]

AND build it!
