[Romania] Walk on!

Day 542, 00:55 Published in Romania Hungary by Zoli

Yesterday we saw the most intense day in eRepublik history. Yesterday Romania lost the 2 most important regions it ha😛 Podolia and West Siberian Region; and will lose East Siberian Region and Urals by the end of the week. Despite these lost battles Romania has proved that it has the strongest army in eRepublik.

Romania is much stronger than Hungary, it is stronger than Indonesia, but it is not stronger than Hungary and Indonesia together. In the past 2 weeks Hungarian and Indonesian armies combined inflicted daily 300K more damage than Romania. Romania had 17.500 citizens, Hungary and Indonesia had a combined 26.300 citizens. This made the difference.

It seemed obvious that Romania will not be able to hold both Podolia and WSR. Defending WSR was the obvious choice, because if lost Romania would have had any real chance to reconquer it. Unfortunately for Romania, many players either had companies in Podolia or they wanted to fight against Hungarians, so a lot of Romanian damage was wasted in Podolia despite the orders to defend WSR. Most of Hungarians fought down to 30 wellness the second day, fighting 10 times just to conquer Podolia. With Podolia Romania has lost 2078 inhabitants, and only around 400 moved to Romania, the rest stayed in Hungary and could not fight any more.

In the 4th hour after WSR was in standby and the wall was at around 60K, the Hungarian chat got active. In around 15 minutes 60 people who already used the hospital and where at over 90 wellness volunteered to go to Indonesia and fight down to 30 wellness. Weapons where bought from the marketplace and distributed. 20 minutes after these people moved out Indonesia conquered WSR.

The resources of the Hungarian Army have been depleted, so the MoD asked for the help of the population. Several hundred GOLD have been donated in a couple of hour by the population. During all day people on chat where distributing money and weapons to other fighters who did not have enough in order to fight. People with low damage where giving away money and gifts to help stronger players in order to insure victory. After victory people where reliving the battles from August. Tears where flowing, but they where tears of joy, not tears of sadness like in August.

It was an epic battle. I salute the Romanian army as they proved to be the strongest army in eRepublik. I salute all players who fought yesterday.

I know your morale is down, some people are considering to quite this game. I urge all of you to stay. This game is not about winners and losers; this game is about the community. Stay in eRepublik. Walk on!

If you leave this game it will be less fun for you and those who stay. Today you have lost, tomorrow you will win. Only cowards walk away after a defeat! Do not walk away, stay and walk on!
