Battles of day 614

Day 615, 07:30 • Published in • by Plato

Dear citizens,

The massive World War that has shaken the New World for two weeks is growing larger and larger it seems. More and more countries are joining the great “dance,” trying to help their friends or bust up enemies' plans, in a frenzy of attacks.

For now it seems that PEACE has an advantage on the battlefields, despite fighting more countries. The strong relations developed inside the oldest, yet still active alliance, PEACE, play an important role when it comes to strategy, common goals, and sacrifice availability. The net result after these two weeks consists of several original Canadian and US regions being conquered by enemies. It's often said that the eagerness to conquer will never be as strong as the desire to defend the homeland. For the attackers, the region is just a jewel for their crown. For the defender, the region is everything. It's home.

Today we witnessed a PEACE victory on all fronts. Romania lost the highly important region of Podolia. Canada lost Alberta. And the US lost California, all this in just two hours. By far the most impressive battle was the one for California, where Indonesia fought alone against the US plus 14 allies. Indonesia managed to keep the wall at a “conquerable” level for 23 hours, which is impressive, but they conquered California with the help of the strongest soldiers of the PEACE alliance, in the last hour of battle. The final moments effort was really impressive, Indonesia knew that they wouldn't win if the battle didn't stop soon. So, the strongest soldiers of PEACE (aka "tanks") fought for their friends admirably, making an incredible “damage per second” on the Indonesian side, which led to the victory. This only proves how important friendships are. Even though admirable people fought from all over the world to defend US soil, they just couldn't do anything against such a big “damage per second.”

But let's see the numbers:
1.Battle for Podolia: 29.176 fights, 6.651 soldiers, 1.346.298 total damage;
2.Battle for Alberta: 29.731 fights, 6.833 soldiers, 1.020.965 total damage;
3.Battle for California: 52.018 fights, 9.415 soldiers, 3.707.264 total damage.

A total of 6.074.527 damage was inflicted in three battles finishing virtually simultaneously, all this while another 11 battles are still waiting to end! If we add them up, the damage inflicted in the last 24 hours has turned eRepublik into a genuine battlefield.

Pretty amazing! We also can see improvements on the server side, sustaining huge amounts of soldiers fighting at once without collapsing like in the battle for Nova Scotia. We would like to congratulate all soldiers for providing us with these memorable moments in eRepublik.
As for the war, it is far from over, actually we can see it growing larger and larger. A lost battle never means capitulating, but fighting back with even more force and ambition. We will see how former Atlantis members will react to these successes of PEACE. Because, as the elders say, only the dead see the end of the war.

Regards,
The eRepublik Team
