Ireland and Military Units.

Day 1,769, 14:13 Published in Ireland Ireland by orangejuicemmm


I am beginning to love and enjoy all these new military unit reform articles and the various replies and opinions being shared about how Ireland should solve our over-saturation problem but It’s getting pretty boring now considering it’s quite obvious no one really has any idea what they are doing/talking about.



Let’s focus on Malbekh here for a second; Ok, so the kid, yes kid in terms of eRepublik, did some good stuff at bootcamp and I suppose this should give him some prestige amongst the various other “mouths” in our lovely society but I’m sorry Mal it doesn’t give you the right to dictate how Ireland should operate Military wise.



Something which I find quite amusing and you and several others seem to find interesting is your new Military Unit the Malcontent. Over the last week or so you have basically been talking as if this MU is the saviour that Ireland needs or that it is something special but it just isn't. You just got lucky. For instance you have practically zero structure of any kind so excuse me if I or anyone else doesn't take advice from you. Also, you fortunately enough can boast that 25% of your members are God Of Wars but they achieved GoD whilst not in your MU or to be honest with the help of any other MU they simple bought gold to fight. So technically, any “damage” or “influence” the Malcontents do would be done anyway regardless of your MU or anyone else’s MU. You simply tell them where to fight which is ironic considering in your most recent article you confess “we can't possibly hope to hit in any coordinated fashion”. Sorry mate but you’re just as much to blame for this as those other “16 MU’s”



This is the opposite with Military Units like the Irish Citizen Army, Irish Army and even Libertad. We all supply our members with the best weapons available and we supply a lot of weapons for our members to fight with.

So what should Ireland do? I definitely agree that we need to alter our MU structure and cut out those useless unorganised MU’s in order to improve Ireland’s international standing and I’m sorry to say the Malcontents fall into that bracket regardless of their current damage output. We should let Libertad be Libertad and fight for Paraguay all they want. The ICA should be allowed to continue as it is once it can provide the best for its members and the IA should be our national MU as it was intended and facilitate the various other Military Units into various different Divisions within.



Now, I can very well see why people will be shouting about favouritism or my obvious bias toward the ICA but let’s call a spade a spade here, the ICA is Ireland longest standing Military Unit, has the infrastructure to provide Q7 weapons to all of its members and up until recently could dish out double the damage any other Military Unit in Ireland could WITHOUT the help of the state. We can be independent of the state if we want unlike everyone else.



That’s about it for me, hope you enjoyed my poorly composed and expressed rant.

P.S I have nothing against Malbekh or the Malcontents just stating where I see them now and in the future.
