Day 41: PEACE Takes A Vacation
Desertfalcon
Today's article will be short because really nothing happened today. The only real attack came when Russia attack the Nord-Norge region of Finland however this has been a small battle since neither side has any MPPs activated. This used to be a hot battlefield back when Finland, Norway, and North Korea all tried to work together to block Russia when they first invaded the U.S. however the activity has died off in recent weeks. Normally this would be considered an insignificant battle however its the only real battle going on today so it gets a mention.
Earlier today PEACE did manage to take over Massachusetts and knocked the U.S. down to just Maine and Florida. Despite not attacking Maine today PEACE will still be able to attempt to take out both Florida and Maine tomorrow which would make it so we wouldn't be able to elect a congress on the 25th should they win. If this were to occur the U.S. would be very vulnerable to PTOs as without an elected congress people will be granted citizenship automatically, while it may be difficult to PTO the U.S. it won't be impossible with its reduced numbers as many are either stuck behind enemy lines or have left for Greece.
In Europe a resistance war in the French held region of Navarra was successful and Spain now has its second region. Navarra isn't really a key regions but still its a good sign for Spain and will surely boost the confidence of the resistance forces. Canada has also had recent success in their resistance wars and today they have voted to rebuild the Q5 hospital in Alberta. Canada had originally had one here however it was destroyed in the initial invasion of Canada. With its construction hundreds of Canadian refugees have returned to their homeland and in a little over a day Alberta has gained 400 citizens.
Really that's all for today, its been a pretty slow day but I do expect things to really heat up tomorrow, stay tuned for more updates.

Thanks for the report, your daily updates are indispensable for a new player attempting to get antiquated.
Again well done.
But like you said, the calm before the storm...

Voted thanks 🙂
Voted, nice read as usual.
will they attack both florida and maine? it will be extremely hard for them to PTO such a large population in the eUSA... they would have to play it very smart.
Finland vs Russia is insignificant until the battle ends. Then it becomes Indonesia+Hungary+Italy+Brazil+France+Ru ssia vs Norway+USA+Poland+Malaysia+Canada+Spain+ Croatia, when Russia attacks Norway.
I hope the slowdown in the PEACE invasion is a sign that the guys at PEACE HQ have realized their latest actions are losing the support not only of individual citizens, but of whole countries.
Grakulan: Wasted hope... this is just the calm befor the storm. Armys are moving, citizens regenarate, they buying weapons, and the leaders waiting for the perfect timeing.
The days of the usa are counted. And its less then one 🙂
Pray you're wrong, Vilendor. If you're right PEACE's days are counted too, because it has lost its purpose and soon quarrels over the spoils of war and who gets to call the shots will split up and weaken the now unstoppable PEACE steamroller.
Hope Grakulan's right.
Let's all learn our lesson from Grakulan and Dark Yojimbo, so that if tides turn in the future we will not commit the sin of hubris.
Nice analysis as always, df. voted.
hmm so thats what happens when you only have 1 region left. Interesting...
This is kinda like playing the last several turns in Civilization IV when the game's already won or lost... it's just point & click to get through to the end so you can "see it through" & start again fresh.
There is no "start again fresh" unless the admins wipe the planet and reset the board which they're not likely to do. My only wish is that I could cryogenically freeze myself and my assets and come back to the game in a few months to see if anything has improved. Honestly, at this point with so many people leaving, I'm not sure what there is left to accomplish.
Bastion, why do tough talkers turn out to be such quitters when things stop going their way?!
Do you remember how many regions eHungary when it started on its path to eWorld domination?! I do, because I was there, fighting for SGP and seeing we were losing badly, but we never gave up and we never despaired, knowing we'd win no matter how long it took.
@ ANYONE able to VOTE in MAINE!

woot !
so tell me why we aren't/can't attacking again?
thank you for the informative article 😃
"...which would make it so we wouldn't be able to elect a congress on the 25th should they win."
You sure about that? It was my understanding that once the PPs had picked the official candidates, everything was locked into place. If this is true, we will at least have 2 states' worth of senators, no matter whether or not they take the actual states.
@ Kazeal
If we don't have any regions we won't have any elections.
Hmm... I wonder why I haven´t voted this already? Well you got my vote. You are doing great job. It´s always nice to read your articles. Subbed since start of world war.
