Title: Squids Declare war on Kalmar Union

The Squids, quite frankly, have had it up to their tentacles with this EU scum faction. They've been funding ACRE for too long now. Snowballing other EU scum factions to attack defenseless NA Fiefs (Ganners free trade fiefs).

If you're non-treasonous to your NA roots then help the Squids defeat this Axis of Evil (KalmarUnion, ACRE, The Coorporation)..

Why would Karlmars need to give us troops?

We had 10k troops on EU side before we started our Exodus. Our total count hasnt increased much since then.

But really nice try making this a NA vs EU fight. You guys are allied with EU factions and you have shitloads of EU mercs, same as Acre.

I told you EU factions NA didn't like you camping. Now you get to do something for us, namely by leaving these fiefs for true Americans. Hope you like hell on EU cause this ain't no heaven here.

Also The Corp is a better target, honestly don't think I'll sign for any battles except for the Coorp as they are shit bags taking out poor ganner.

Perhaps a compromise could be made here.  New Shulus should be returned to me, a Canadian, which is kinda half Euro and half American.  Everyone will agree to never, ever attack it, so I won't have to sit there but can keep my army in the field.  I'll visit once in awhile to collect the hundreds of thousands of silver I'll earn doing nothing.

This way Europe and Acre still have their trade fief, and the Squids will be delighted that it is in NA hands once again.  I took it from the Europeans (well, AI, but the defender was Euro), and perhaps I should get it back.

USA (and Canada)! USA (and Canada)! USA (and Canada)! USA (and Canada)! USA (and Canada)! USA (and Canada)! USA (and Canada)!

For people saying 'euros/Eu's' in being general I'd just like to clarify that Mine, Switch's and Heskeys Faction are not affiliated with this attack despite sharing a similar colour on strategus and both being EU scum and that we would never attack Ganner :) Us being a small clan ourselves, And i think the more factions the merrier so smaller is better! ;)

We shall also be bringing some hopefully exciting battles to Na soon!
Please don't generalize.  It would be like if Wardens of the North attacked Ganner at bad hour and then assuming that all NA including Occitan and Super Friends and DSE all attack at horrible hours.  Each EU clan is unique and most are very much open to having battle times that are good for eu and na if they are fighting on na side.


Only the Corporation attacked Ganner.  The rest of the Euros (in the link) have washed their hands of that.

Its easy:

1. UIF dont like us
2. UIF trades with Squids
3. Squids wants to exclusively have EU trade
4. UIF feeds Squids gear and gold for an attack on us
5. Squids wants it to look like they are doing it for Murrica and get support
6. Squids are preparing NA for their masters in the UIF
7. Squids are the rotten seafood here

what faction is "Her Britannic Majestys Royal Armed Forces"

Merc_Algarn stole my free trade fief while I was hard at work at my American job, helping to usher in the next great era of American prosperity and economic hegemony over our transatlantic lessers

fuck him. He's probably spent all the PP jacking up taxes, reducing S and D output, and heirlooming worthless overpriced gimmick items, as per the European mindset of ironic worthless laziness

If that's Dugan the attack was at a decent time NA (for a friday), shitty time EU. And he's our dog now, he chose us.

We both stood their patting our knees saying 'C'mon Boy! C'mere!' and it looked at us, then it looked at you, then it came trotting over to us.


We are currently implementing free healthcare, teaching them to play Cricket and Rugby so they can join our leagues and be worse than us, and also a zero tolerance policy on dental hygiene - i have a colour chart, any teeth whiter than a certain level must be removed. (also we are re-educating them on the correct spelling of 'colour').

What heskeytime said. If I'm told to go somewhere, I go there. I don't discuss orders, nothing personal in that attack, simply executed orders given. Furthermore, it was a saturday I think (weekend), and shit time for us Europeans, so, you can only blame yourselves for not being able to show up for a battle.

Another guy from your very organised clan reacted the same way when he found out you (squids)were declaring war on us while we were thinking we had diplomatic talks....did someone in your clan act before getting clan approval for this war?

Post by: Legs on June 22, 2014, 05:10:49 pm
As far as I know we aren't trading with EU, I just checked the map and none of our members are over there. We aren't attacking the EU factions near Narra because we like to be friendly with our neighbors, that's all. Saying that we're 'working for our UIF masters' is laughable. The Republic of Squids fights wars to expand our territory, which brings greater wealth and influence. I don't know if Acre is trading at Shulus, I don't know if they're trading with EU, but they could be and with the trade embargo it seems more likely that they are. Regardless, it's a lone village that doesn't have very many troops in it. It's way at the corner of the map where we could get good distance bonuses. Taking it would limit the Kingdom of Acre's options. Attacking seems like a natural conclusion.
Title: Re: Squids Declare war on Kalmar Union
Post by: Switchtense on June 22, 2014, 06:24:36 pm
Yeah I think Watto definitely is underappreciated, what do you guys think?


Anyway.

Just gotta get used to NA strat diplomacy guys, the OP has to be a full-on rage-filled post in full caps and huge text about how the war is justified etc. It doesnt mean anything, NA just like wars etc xD

Whereas in EU it's a web of grudges and old alliances and people are actually genuinely saying their opinions when making posts like OP here lol.

Actually that seems to be true. Every declaration of war I have read so far (I will be honest, not too many cause I find them boring to read) has some kind of justifications in them.
Why don't you just write something like

"We declare war on you.!
Why you ask?
Because I don't like you and fuck you."

Would make things much easier to read, understand and would cause less bullshit, while producing the same amount of drama.
Title: Re: Squids Declare war on Kalmar Union
Post by: Bryggan on June 22, 2014, 06:27:52 pm
New Shulus is a very viable target, and it does make a lot of sense for the Squids to try take it.  And yeah, like Heskeytime said, you gotta lay on propaganda on thick in these parts.  And it don't get much thicker than the OP.

That being said, the Squids are a truly evil bunch, spreading their slimy tentacles everywhere, trying to force all the players to submit to their democratic republic style faction (democracy is against everything chadz has taught- Calradia needs a King!).  What with them trying to crush our immigrant Euro-friends, who just escaped the tyranny of Druzhina/Grey who have plunged Europe into an era of peace and prosperity.  They came here seeking blood, violence and destruction!  Should we deny them that?

Also Squids kill kittens, eat babies, and rape Japanese schoolgirls.  And they're not American at all.  They are Iranian terrorists who snuck into the States and seek to take it over.  First they take Strat, then the rest of the world.

Well, Shulus has a good position for you - valid point

Dont come dragging with the whole Bros/acres/Kalmarunion bullshit, you want the fief for trade and you are agggressive - I like aggressive clans

Lets hope we can have a good war

They uncovered our plan. Attack Squidies!!! ATTACK!!!!

Yes i'm here to confirm that Squids are part of the UIF and we sponsor them with all their armies, equipment and gold, and yes we trade together day and night!!!
Squids was just poor little clan before we become their masters!
And when EU's fail on NA you should all know that its UIFs doing.

PS: Squids don't fight it, give in, no one will believe you anyway :)) Its just the price u have to pay for attacking our enemies.

PSS: Thanks for your efforts, maybe we won't have to come to NA for them.

They seriously had gothic plate?  How does any faction afford that?

But I would also like to apologize for the late battles.  We saw an easy target and went for it.  Then Thumper started chasing me, and I did want to fight, but Dirk (the level headed one) pointed out it would be a late battle, and roster support was too risky at such a time to be gambling an army on it.  I ran for it (er, strategically withdrew), but Thumper was gaining on me so Dirk attacked him.  We feel bad about this, and would have loved a good fight, but such are the ways of strat.

On the other hand, the Squids are evil.  They eat kittens.  I was on their TS one day, and one guy (I won't say names) said he loved munching pussy.  So there.  True Evil!

You Squids keep going on about Freedom and all that American propaganda.  Do you represent freedom and America when you don't let other factions get a chance to trade, when you crush the smaller competition, when you have an iron grip on the world economy so that the few get rich while the others plod along and never get a chance to get ahead?  And then all you do is spend your super high profits on weapons and gear that no other faction can afford!  Is that the American Way?

Oh wait, that is America in a nutshell.  Gratz on staying true to your roots.

On a side note, congratulations on kicking my ass, but I did kick ThurnisHaley's ass.  In fact, I think those asses are cursed.  I I were you, I'd slaughter all them donkeys and sell them as dog food before your ass gets kicked.

I'm biased because everyone in my country who's big, strong or ballsy enough to play America-ball if they wanted plays a version of America-ball without padding all over their body and a medieval helmet to protect their delicate faces. It's called rugby and we play other countries at it.

Our FOOTBALL players are the ones who'd end up playing something shit like baseball (that's our 'soccer' equivalent, you play it up to the age of 10, it's called 'rounders' and then you go play real sport when you grow up), or basketball if they were born in your country (nah, we got no sport for tall people, they just sit at home and cry).

What EU doesn't understand.... is that pads and helmets are weapons in American football.  They just made rules to ban spearing people (With the helmet not the shoulder.)  But spearing developed..... because of helmets/pads.  I watch Rugby from time to time.  It's a violent sport.  It's very dirty.  Players use their forearms to smash each other in the face.  But it's rare to see spearing in rugby.  Notice a lot of the hits in the video below.  They are planting their helmet directly into the opponents chest or chin.  That's illegal now.  But they still do it with their shoulder because the pads are a weapon.  Another difference is the passing game.  Some of the most violent hits in football are WR's going over the middle getting speared by a safety. 


LB's and Safeties are taught from a young age to put their facemask between the numbers.  They are going to slam you full force with 100% speed and often end up with their helmet going right under your chin.  Even now that spearing is banned shoulder pads still allow players to hit with more force than not.  Trust me.... other than the QB.... very few people are wearing flak jackets.  There is no abdominal padding.  You think the pads are there to protect lol.... the pads are there to make the game 10 times more violent lol. 

Now let's watch some Rugby.  Again.... props to the sport.  I'm not knocking it in any way.  But players in Rugby basically tackle like CB's in the NFL.  It's a totally different kind of violence.  Most of the time they wrap up.  You'll see a lot of guys get body slammed and that feels about the same with or without pads.  You'll see a lot of forearm and shoulder tackling but it's still not the same technique as American football.  You will occasionally see spearing in Rugby but its not nearly as frequent and American football (shoulder or head.)  And it's because pads and helmets are offensive weapons.  When people lead with the shoulder in rugby most of the time it's a wrap up tackle.  There are occasional blasts but not to the the degree or frequency of American Football.  It's still brutal.  And I'm not arguing that it's a sport for sissies.  But I'm tired of hearing about how much more brutal Rugby is than football.... because of pads.  You see a helmet... and shoulder pads... and think it's for player protection.  In reality it's for harder hits.  It's not for the other guy lol.

I agree.  And Rugby is a GREAT sport.  I'm just pointing out the purpose of pads.  One of my best friends was a semi pro soccer player and we always fought over football.  He thinks American football is for sissies because they wear pads.  I call him a sissy for getting concussions from a soccer ball lol.  So it's an age old argument and all in good fun. 

As far as the Gentleman's sport....  that's awesome.

It is true though.
No matter which country you watch.
Rubgy and American Football players bash each others heads in and keep playing cause "tis but a scratch".
Football players instantly drop to the floor and roll across the whole pitch just because another guy looked at them funny.

I have played Football for many years, I often was often fouled (However you say it). Never had a single injury, and it never hurt incredibly much.

If someone tears a muscle or whatever then fair enough, but everytime someone else touches them they scream as if their leg was torn off.

Haha, I know.. in all my time playing I have seen plenty of acting going on. More often than not, though, a kid would jump in front of the ball and take it full force in the gut, only to keep on running after just having the wind knocked out of them. To be honest, I played with some pretty rough kids (probably since they also played american football) who never went down and grabbed their knee in tears just because they got tripped up. Heck, I broke my nose at a game and didn't even get subbed out. We aren't all pussies.... only enough to give us a bad name. :P

Apply for the Kalmar side tonight to kill some close to naked squids and support more battles for NA! As you well notice by the battle times, these battles can't be fought by EU players so we need you and these battles are there to bring fun and XP for you NA guys. Keep giving us rosters and we'll keep giving you battles. Thank you all for your support and god bless America!

Yeah, I know... the problem is that it is such a common practice that it has now become part of the game. If you lose the ball with an opponent right next to you, you best fall down clutching your knee in agony. Maybe, just MAYBE the ref is dumb enough and will give you a free kick. They should honestly start penalizing for anyone who is acting. Fall down and shout at the ref even though you went down on your own? Yellow card, motherfucker. That oughta make the game a little bit more manly in no time at all.

Soccer is a really good and fun sport, but only if you play it for fun or as good natured amateur.

As soon as there is money and fame at stake, the way football works leaves too much room for foul and dishonourable play.

Tell your guys to approach Grandmom with care or he will send his dogs out no matter what time. Seriously, he was right next to our armies at 9 am, what could we do? We are here to play by NA rules and we'll have our battles at NA prime time if possible.

Other than that we have been fighting at NA primetime for several nights in a row - 3-4 oclock every morning so stop whining you baby

And ofc we know that you eventually will move north with lots of shit to wipe us out, anything else would surprise us much - meanwhile we will move the front towards you and not hide behind pop

This thread and the battles I've been mercing for are the veritable proof that NA strat is much weaker than EU's one. When I saw Kalmar's stuff, and what I've been fighting against, I wonder how many time would druzhina spend at taking the totality of the map if they wanted to. They got the totality of NA silver themselves, and almost as much troops, tickets and so on. I'd say around 2 months to take everything, 3 or 4 months if there is actually an alliance of every american clan.

Disclaimer : never said anything about any conquest of the map, just an observation.

On topic, I'd say Kalmars should be taken seriously, since even with 120/130 ping, some players manage to do incredible ratios in strat battles.

The richest NA factions have trade deals with EU factions. EU is way bigger with way more fiefs, which means more S&D available and better distance bonuses. I mean, take a look at the fiefs tab and filter by market size. You have to scroll down before you can even see any NA fiefs. The top EU fief has 4x as much S&D as the top NA fief. We're well-off in NA terms but compared to EU we're struggling economically. It's rough.

On the topic of the war in general:
Yes we're losing ground but from the start we were the only ones with ground to lose. You had one village and we took it. How are we supposed to gain ground from there? Anyway, I don't mean to sound too defensive. You guys are doing well. You're well equipped, well organized, your commanders are good at commanding and your mercs are good at fighting. It's nice having able opponents for once. Steamrolling a faction with weaker players and less money is fun, but competitive battles are fun too. It's a nice change of pace.

Actually Murder.  The first character I made on Crpg was named Balikar.  There wasn't anything fake about it.  My alt, Cruxton, didn't come around until I joined Astralis.  Moonshine was the next character made.  History lesson is over though.  :-)

most of NA isn't playing. if UIF invaded NA I think you would be surprised at the strat heroes that would come out of the woodwork to fight the commies. seriously. there has only been one or two of NA's heroes playing lately.

If raids are your only way of winning battles thats okay, we will do it right back. Also these battles are great to an extent. Unfortunately us squids do not get the NA roster support we need. Let the blood shed and the tentacles choke your women and children.

It's too bad you guys picked Geforce over Black Company lol.

Cant we all just be enemies? This allied here and there to this and that by default or untill the end of time is just making all our lifes harder and more boring.

(you are mercing more for squids though, does that make us more of an enemy?)
 :mrgreen:

We didn't follow NA strat and didn't pay attention to the alliances. And we want u to fail there BUT, Matey and Kesh is the same to us as Gigner and Dave on eu :) And its hard to determine who u want to kill the most. For now we free to sign up for all, but with new info at hand... maybe u will get more mercs or no one will get any.
And we have to stop all trade for NA clans in EU map who in any way connected to FCC directly or through allies.

On the topic of the war in general:
Yes we're losing ground but from the start we were the only ones with ground to lose. You had one village and we took it. How are we supposed to gain ground from there? Anyway, I don't mean to sound too defensive. You guys are doing well. You're well equipped, well organized, your commanders are good at commanding and your mercs are good at fighting. It's nice having able opponents for once. Steamrolling a faction with weaker players and less money is fun, but competitive battles are fun too. It's a nice change of pace.

On a serious note: I agree with most, however by gaining ground I dont mean the fiefs themselfs, controlling territory is what I mean - you couldnt walk anything north of Ulburban without getting attacked by us and you arent sofar from what we have seen.....I am expecting either you or one of your allies (whoever they are) to try and blitz us soon....board is set

The richest NA factions have trade deals with EU factions. EU is way bigger with way more fiefs, which means more S&D available and better distance bonuses. I mean, take a look at the fiefs tab and filter by market size. You have to scroll down before you can even see any NA fiefs. The top EU fief has 4x as much S&D as the top NA fief. We're well-off in NA terms but compared to EU we're struggling economically. It's rough.


Its true that more fiefs on EU and more space between them means more average S&D and more potential trade bonus.
But EU have more fiefs than NA because it was determined that there is more EU players than NA ones.
It could have been true in the past, but today it is exactly the opposite.

There has been so much inactivity, so much quitting and so much leaving to NA, on EU side, that NA side is (relative to the fiefs NA have) largely over populated.


Thanks to that, the ressources NA side are extremely valuable and must be controlled. There is actually way more incentive for wars and subsequent drama, because goods are scarce and gear is much harder to come by. I would say that its a positive thing for everyone, except those who prefer to play trade simulator 2014.

Cherish that situation and do your best to keep your players interested, because EU side is atm very empty of everything, except S&D.

FCC did not join this strat.. Kesh and I decided to mess around and make the superfriends. We did not want to be very involved this time around outside of merc-ing and doing our own thing. If you feel like stomping over to fight us feel free. We are a 6 man faction where I do not think any of us actually play the game right now. So winning could happen but it would not be you beating the FCC only the 6 superfriends! We already showed DRZ what it was like to fight the FCC in strat 2 and they did not care for it.

I told you so Bale!  This strat was really really boring, so i told him I know exactly how predictable Nebun and Harpag are and that i could get them to do exactly what I want because they always react the same way every strat.  Now I just guaranteed us the best xp defending our favorite fief, while fucking up commies.


Bale wanted us to just go out in a blaze of glory with good xp because of how dull this shit was getting.  We were almost to the point of doing lame xp battles.  Thank you UIF for being the mindless Eastern European drones that you are.  We love you for it.  We know you have over a hundred thousand troops and plate and know you will inevitably take the fief (oh no my pixel crack) because you went full gay this strat and kept an alliance with most of the EU community when no anti uif alliance even existed, but hell you just made strat a little bit fun for Matey, Bale, Adoptagoat and I. 

Thank you for finally doing exactly what I have been trying to get you to do all strat - attack us on NA ping for glorious xp, while we can eventually lose our meaningless pixel empire with great xp for my fellow north americans (though I expect arowaine will side with UIF over north america like he always does).

more than happy to fight them and as Jack said in another post it may bring some old school players back to help us defend. The only part I am not looking forward to doing is the off hours fighting.

Any clan on strat could say - u so predictable, we knew u was coming for us :) Well i knew u are stupid and u proving it every strat so what :)))
And its always nice to see how u call all of us commis (it seams even polish for some reason) :) And often u relate to whole nation instead of individual clans or players or at list uif.
To me it feels wrong to call all USA two faced shitheads just because i think ur one :)) Doesn't seam fair.
But ur sooo different, thats why we like u so much :)

You are 2 weeks behind schedule.  Stopped doing my eu trade runs and waited here in the steppes, but as long as you finally come I'm happy.  See we play for fun in NA.  I know thats an alien concept to you drones and all you can play for is revenge or anger.  I've been really looking forward to this ever since someone told me you were getting to the point of finally attacking - stepped up my insults like I do anytime I want someone to attack us.

Nebun you will always be predictable, since strat 1 you have been soooo easy to figure out.  SHOW ME THE MONEY XP,  BITCH!

You soo great and so smart :) You should become Spokesperson for US Government.
"Yes we knew they going to throw the bombs at us, we didn't do anything about that, but yes we knew, it was sooooo predictable, i've lost my legs and dick to one of those bombs, but it was so expected. And all of that because we are very smart! And unpredictable! We sure surprised them by not doing anything about those bombs."

PS: if u would actually beat us at any time. U would fill this forum with thousands of posts about lost of those pixels that u don't care about. If we lose one battle in strat there are a lot of comments about how shit we are :))) but if we would lose war or get wiped :)))) There would be such feast on forum no one ever seen before
