For the Greater Good of EDEN

Dear EDEN citizens ,

From time to time a leader has to make sacrifices for the good of the ones he overlooks but on rare occasions he has to let someone else in his place for the greater “peace” of the Brotherhood. I didn’t see this moment coming, I truly believed that I would finish my 2 month term as Supreme Commander of EDEN and kick PHX in the balls. Well we kicked them but not enough for my appetite. I “finished” it 1 week short of the 2 month period.
I had my ups and downs that affected the alliance in a better or in a more negative way. I have put a lot of effort into rebuilding Croatia by using all of EDEN’s mobile might to retake Slavonia and Southern Dalmatia and all of EDEN’s citizens to secure Croatia’s weak political perspective against the Serbian hoards.
Next came the “Titanium Rush”. US wanted just FER but my plan was to get all Phoenix held titanium regions under EDEN’s rule. This would have crippled the air and artillery production and military units of PHX, would have increased gold income in some of EDEN’s countries or proEDEN countries. This is why EDEN didn’t proceed in wiping Russia of the map… it’s better to keep them in a steel cage blocked by Poland and China with a nice set of MPPs.


The next steps would have been the Congress and Presidential elections in Australia, Bosnia and South Africa. I’m well aware that we can’t win elections in just 1 month but as I always say to myself good things come for those who persevere.


And I will never forget admir_m, vedo, Sirbeg and all of those crazy Bosnians with whom I had the pleasure to get Bosnia back to the map, free and on it’s way back to being a veritable country.


I treated all countries as equals although the same countries didn’t treat each other as equals, be it Spain or Switzerland, Romania or Norway.


Then last Friday, Day 1032, after a long time in which i considered the economical wealth of the countries (not asking for payments to the EDEN military campaigns account, named TAF, at all in the last 2 months and not asking for EMC payments for 2 weeks out of 6) I convoked an EDEN meeting to discuss LK operation with the Presidents. Today, EDEN is more powerful through MPPs and even through mobiles units then it’s counterpart alliance.


I’m a man of war in eRep and I can’t let this opportunity unused.
I truly believe LK is an almost impenetrable fortress in a 1-on-1 battle at the moment and only a massive scale operation could get Serbia out of Asia. This is why I asked during the EDEN meeting, all countries to get involved in a way or another.



The plan for World in Flames 2/LK : Some countries would have attacked countries that already had a set of activated MPPs against them , (Ex : Romania-Hungary, Canada-UK, Australia-Indonesia, Greece-Turkey, Poland-Lithuania, Spain-France, Italy-Austria) some countries would have activated a new set of MPPs (EDEN is a Defensive alliance so countries can’t be forced to attack, they must act under their own will – Ex : Croatia-Slovenia). The first 48-72 hours ALL countries that attacked would have had the freedom to get their military to fight alongside their civilians. The idea was to get all EDEN countries to race each other and to win against PHX on all fronts. If we have 10 open battles against PHX cores then they can’t defend all of them. Where PHX resistance would have been fierce, EDEN mobiles would have stepped in. This way in 72 hours at least one of the PHX countries would have been in danger to be wiped out.
Serbia couldn’t have just stood and defend LK in those 3 days. They are the power of PHX and they need to defend their allies. This leaves LK opened and next to it the EDEN members that wants LK the most and that wouldn’t have been involved in the first 3 days of battle… China.
At their prime time, China would have attacked LK…. Croatia won against Serbia in Slavonia because it is it’s most important region. China would have won in LK because it would have put the maximum effort for LK out of all EDEN members.
The attacks would have been paid by the countries that would have made the attacks and LK by China and the countries that didn’t had a direct fight.


Most of the countries accepted the plan without problems but some didn’t. I was I appealed .. didn’t expect those countries to be the ones that refuse the plan. don’t want to create other issues so I wont mention them.


This is one of the few periods in erep when EDEN has an advantage over PHX and it’s not using it and it’s a period of maximum boredom. I wont be the Supreme Commander that is afraid of a fight or afraid of fun and excitement. EDEN is all about it’s populations but presidents tend to forget that. There are times to stay at peace as we did before but now it’s time for war.


I didn’t see full commitment so with a lot of regrets and a sad heart I'm announcing my resignation as Supreme Commander of EDEN.


I wish the best of luck to the new SC no matter who he might be and I present my apologies to the countries that stood by my side, supported me in my activity and listen to my orders be it right or wrong.


For Romanians : Ascultati de ordinele Ministerului Apararii. Fie ele bune sau rele, ele tin Romania militar in viata.


For EDEN HQ : thank you for being in my “team” for this 2 months, you were awesome and it was pleasure to think and breathe for EDEN all this time but sadly I don’t believe in the alliance anymore, it’s built on weak foundations and.. it’s even nonexistent as not all presidents signed the new Treaty so EDEN at this moment is a fiction.
