So eSwitzerland is kinda doomed....

Day 2,270, 13:32 • Published in Switzerland USA • by GoopyPants

So eSwitzerland is liberated with all four of its original regions (mainly due to the combined forces of Croatia, Austria, and Italy kicking Slovenia directly in the balls).

Yay! says everyone (except Slovenia).


But hold on there, Ghostrider, the pattern is full.

You may not have noticed, or may have, and not really thought about it, or have thought about it and don't really care, but Slovenia has a cunning plan. A plan as cunning as a fox who's just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University. Yes, that cunning.

Real soon now Switzerland will be renamed “The Great and Eternal Slovenian e-Empire Mk. 2”.

What what wha?

Consider:



and then consider:



That charming poo-colored region is the recently liberated Switzerland, and the purple parasite is a Slovenian region of Austria.

By holding an Austrian region (and fighting off an Austrian RW), Slovenia NE’s Switzerland, marches in, wipes us like 2-ply bathroom tissue, and then sets up permanent shop. Everything gets repainted like a 70s disco, all the signs get changed to weird squiggly letters, and chocolate gets outlawed and replaced with sheep balls (or whatever eSlovenains e-eat).

Switzerland standing alone has no ability to launch successful RWs against a determined Slovenian occupation. Seriously, no chance. Like hells no. Eternal occupation.

So what can be done?

There is a bit of a chance the Slovenian Czar will be asleep when the NE allows the attack on Switzerland. Assuming the NE battle is delayed by at least an hour, a RW in Vorarlberg can delay the attack on Switzerland, and if that RW is successful, the Slovenian tick will be dislodged and chocolate and banking will be safe for a while.

Assuming the Slovenian Czar isn’t a maroon, Switzerland needs to call in all its markers, favors, IOUs, blood pacts, and other assistance in fighting off the NE attack.

The alternative is roll over and not have a congress for another month, no bonuses, and a helluva time getting the Slovenians to go home.

So I call on the newly elected eSwiss government to implement an emergency plan to save our cuckoo clocks and baguettes. Just yelling on the shout feed, publishing some articles, and providing supplies and a token CO won’t be near enough... and signing MPPs will be too little too late. We need direct intervention by MUs, countries, and some divine help may be necessary, too. Bee-stings aren’t needed, we need an avalanche.

Oh, and the +energy rewards and all that kick in tomorrow, so double-screwed in that regard.

Slovenia isn’t going to be soft on this… they are fighting for the survival of their country just like we are.

And congrats to our new CP! Good luck and it's a heckuva time to have to take command 😃
