We're Only Getting Started

Day 1,477, 20:24 Published in USA USA by Oblige


So readers, you may have hear😛 Aquitaine was conquered by USA in the war versus Serbia.

Before we get any further, mood music: http://youtu.be/h2S3RvIHwGs



So, I thought the first day of my Presidency would be filled with such leisurely pursuits as writing a victory article and giving myself an access level of over 9000 in every IRC channel I join.

Instead, I spent most of my day working with our allies, alliance members, friends, and your citizen peers to pull off this glorious victory in Aquitaine.



To begin, I'd like to thank our allies in TERRA HQ, EDEN HQ, Croatia, Brazil, China, and Argentina who coordinated directly with me. Without the assistance of Oles, Hoffa, Mat1307, Radens, Obersoldat, Chubbzilla, XiaoQQC, hopez0r, dinossauro and Vanek26 I wouldn't be writing this article.

Update😛 Of course for my good friends in Romania, France, Germany, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Greece whom all helped turn the tide.

To say the battle was epic would be an understatement, let's look at the highlight real:



Over 18 mil influence by our front runner Argrob, 16 mil by Lorenzo Lopes Riviera, our very own Captain Communism with almost 15 mil, Romper with 11 mil and Ariovistus with just above 10 mil.

Thank you!



In round 14 things were looking bleak, Argrob had put in a tremendous amount of damage for us, we were giving out supplies, - (over 350 requests!) but we couldn't keep the wall up, despite some massive tanking by the names above, Artela and many others, but in the end the round was lost after almost two hours.

We were going to throw in the towel, we had given out over $100,000 USD in supplies, tanked over 30 mil influence and we were spent.

But then something unexpected happened. Roger Griswald of the Canadien Military Dictatorship Party approached me and said he had a donation of 3,000 Tanks ready, primarily supplied by Rylde, Roger and the MDP "Merc Fund".



So, we fired up Arm America again, spent another 50k on supplies, which was supplemented by an extremely generous donation by Jude Connors, I coordinated a hit at 1:00 with the CAT Elite - (thanks Fernando Sucre!) and Argentina (thanks FlorenciaC!) and as you can see, the results...



...with some additional assistance from Yluss and Jadiv...





... were more than satisfactory.

As a final note I'd like to thank the fine quartermasters that made it possible for us to dispense with so much of our money, so quickly: Your Army XO: Hekter, Youe eNPR Executive Producer: Jude Connors, Your Secretary of Defense: Artela, Your White House Press Director: Israel Stevens, eShades, Lanva and of course, your Vice President: rainy sunday (she's super kawai~ ).




So readers, how does that sound for a first day? Remember: we're only getting started!
