Reatreats?

Day 610, 06:29 • Published in USA USA

I logged in this morning to find that we have retreated in Wyoming, North Dakota, and Nevada, letting the Russians simply take them, losing territory and gold to them. Up until my last log in, which was about 1 1/2 hours before the surrenders took place, we were winning in all three battles by at least 30,000 point walls.

My question to anybody who can answer is this: Why on earth did we retreat from three battles that we were winning? Was there some sort of deal made between us and the Russians? Did it give us some sort of strange advantage through game mechanics that I don't understand? Because from my standpoint, I can see no logical reason for this move. I eagerly await your comments on this issue, because frankly I am baffled.

As alsways, in the words of Thomas Paine:
"A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right."

Well said.

The reason is that you're leaders are slowly learning how the game works. It was a very good decission. Now let's see if the Russian president will make the same good decision, or if he will be influenced by the horde of newbies in his country to do otherwise.

But HOW was it a good decision. For those of us who do not understand how this part of the game works, I want to know why this was a good decision.
