Everyone feel free to food fight for TP damage. Do not waste your gold pushing the wall, as we expect to lose most battles. Save the money for those kind of efforts on a day in the future, when they will be needed.

Tentative schedule:
(Any eIrish wins will likely be an extended battle with cooperative effort, so I added 5 hours)

)We NE first
)24 hour wait
)eIreland lose initiative in Maine 13 hours (12 hours of battles + 5min breaks + some rounds inevitably extend a bit when divisions win a few hundred points)
)24 hour wait
)eUS wins Cork 13 hours
)24 hour wait
)eUS wins Wexford 13 hours
)24 hour wait
)eUS loses initiative in likely prolonged battle in Shannon 18 hours
)First 15 hours waiting
)Both nations no-NE proposals
)9 more hours of waiting
)eIreland loses initiative anywhere 13 hours
)First 3 hours waiting
)Peace proposal
)21 more hours of waiting
)eUS starts losing initiative in a likely extended battle 3 hours
)Confirmations goes to the other country
)eUS finishes losing in 15 hours
)Wait 9 of the 24 hours
)Peace is official

Remember that any extended battles could cumulatively add up to a lot. A few hundred points at the start of a losing round in a lower division can add 5-10 minutes to the length of a round. Winning just 6 points will make a battle go to a 9th round, which is at least another hour and a half. Enough of these small efforts could potentially add enough time to save us from the last hit on our shield.

Note: If they do accidently win an extra region, the eUS will cooperatively help us RW it back after the war.
