sigh, chadz just keeps making it harder to give a shit about strat. i realize fallen broke the rules, and they admitted it. they lost 200 pop doing it, but they were ok with that. punishing people for exploiting is a nice change, the problem is fucking with an ongoing war and handicapping the underdog for breaking the common sense rule despite them posting about the exploit over a month ago, and unless im mistaken, no dev ever posted in that thread saying "we will fix this" or "thanks for pointing it out! if anyone ever does this we will punish them!" no... the devs havent even posted saying "let this be a lesson to exploiters!" instead they just showed up and torched 1000 troops and however much gear at the same time that the faction is fighting for survival against a large force of enemies. thanks for giving a shit about the time and effort people put into strat and mocking them for taking your game serious. i realize strat is a bit of a joke anyways as 90% of EU is allied, and EU has 66% of the territory... but its not very reassuring to be reminded as how much of a joke strat really is.
