2 Years Old Today

Day 1,174, 21:41 • Published in USA USA

• by Woxan

And I am happy to see, that after 2 years of on-off playing, that World War I (ATLANTIS/PEACE, EDEN/Phoenix) is ending and that World War II (PANAM/NWO), is finally about to begin. Seriously guys, World War I was getting stale. Hoping for it to get interesting again is like the Mule trying to find the Second Foundation. It simply can't be done.

Anyone who thinks that there already was a "WW2, WW3, WWIV, etc." is wrong and fails to grasp the big picture. It was all an extension of the Hun/Rom conflict and the alliances that fell around it.

Also, I say we invade Mexico again. It's been two years since Taco Bell, a month since Frost, but pillaging them never gets old. Or Spain, so we can watch Gaius Julius turn in his eGrave.

There is another Spanish speaking nation that is quite appealing as well...

Publius Day 1,174, 21:44

Also, Canada. Do it for Nave.

CANAM II: NAVE'S REVENGE

Bring it on.

I need Woxan inside me.

Pfeiffer. Day 1,174, 21:49

I'd gladly let Gaius know we were attacking Spain. I'd wager he comes back to try and tank...not realizing he's nerfed to nothing.

Also, Canada would be fun, but Nave is being a butt about coming back. Log in, look around, log out...repeat in two months. what is that?

'It was all an extension of the Hun/Rom conflict and the alliances that fell around it.'

Was? Poland got annoyed at Romania and so left EDEN and joined with Hungary, taking Spain with them. Brazil got annoyed at Hungary's S African PTO, so left Phoenix and took Argentina with them and has MPPed Romania. And so on, and so on.

Void elf Day 1,175, 12:30

hahaha...The old Gaius Jul. would surely turn in his eGrave.

Woxan Day 1,175, 12:49

That is correct, daniecox. Major power players are shifting breaking the old dichotomy.

>"Anyone who thinks that there already was a "WW2, WW3, WWIV, etc." is wrong and fails to grasp the big picture. It was all an extension of the Hun/Rom conflict and the alliances that fell around it."

Change that to Paki/Swede and it'll be good.

Woxan Day 1,175, 13:55

Paki/Swede never fought

Michael Collins Day 1,175, 14:02

Paki/Swede was the heart of the old (beta) alliance system. After that it was Hungary/Romania and to a lesser extent Serbia/Croatia.

But I disagree with you when you think NWO/PANAM is some kind of dramatic shift. It's not. It's simply EDEN and Phoenix swapping Brazil for Spoland (which looks like EDEN got the raw end of the deal there).

USA and Brazil had a chance at changing the dynamics and creating a third alliance. It was going to take many months, and would require an open mind and some tough decisions. But they took the easy way out and have failed entirely.

Reactionist Day 1,175, 14:38

He invoked the name of Gaius Julius!!

Woxan Day 1,175, 14:43

I don't think it's dramatic, we're still going to end up with a bi-polar world because nobody has the balls to attempt a 3rd pole, but the shift of several major powers does invoke some new chemistry.

Sir Hypnotoad Day 1,175, 14:46

>"Paki/Swede was the heart of the old (beta) alliance system. After that it was Hungary/Romania and to a lesser extent Serbia/Croatia."

You're neglecting the fact that Hungary/Romania (which should be Indonesia/Romania but w/e) stemmed from Sweden v Pakistan.

Either way, Hungary(or Indonesia)/Romania was WWII.

Woxan Day 1,175, 16:09

Hun/Indo vs Rom was merely an extension of ATLANTIS vs PEACE. Sure, there were lulls, but it was all the same conflict and same armies. For the first time in a while, there is a notable shift in allegiances.
