eBulgaria. Big in Japan.
Gnilraps
Big in Japan (Mandatory listening)
Day 2992 of the New World
January 29, 2016
Well, Bulgaria sure was Big in Japan.
...in Japan.
Alaska? Not so much.
By now everyone knows the strategy. If you are going to attack the eUSA, be prepared to spend a wad of cash. I’m not criticizing it. Because we also know what the strategy is for defending the eUSA… spend a wad of cash.
Nobody who is being intellectually honest can deny this.
I’m not rejecting the notion that eUSA has allies. Our allies are as awesome as any in the eWorld. But eUSA’s militarily strongest allies (eGreece, eSlovenia, and ePoland) are not our strongest relationships. (You could argue that the eGreece/eUSA relationship is gaining strength, and perhaps they should be in a different category than eSlovenia and ePoland).
No, eUSA’s best bonds are with eNations that are lower tier military powers than eUSA herself. eLatvia and eArgentina are our best buds, but if we combine their damage, they do just better than doubling our effective damage potential. (Using averages, eLatvia+eArgentina = eUSA*1.1).
You can see why eGreece is such a big deal!
eBulgaria, meanwhile, has some powerful friends.
eHungary, eChile, eFYROM, eSpain even.
By average damage alone, eBulgaria should be able to be big in Alaska.
But they aren’t. They suck in Alaska.
In short, eBulgaria LOST.
In fact, considering the fact that eUSA just got attacked by eFYROM, eChile, and eBulgaria, and considering the fact that all three were sent home with their tail between their legs, let me be the first in the media to say it…
eUSA won.
My point is that eUSA won against superior firepower, and we did it with superior spending.
And my other point is that nobody should really have a problem with that.
In fact, we should probably have a serious conversation about how easily the eUSA financial empire was actually able to swallow this attack.
As we know from intelligence that is by now common knowledge, the recent effort against eUSA was the result of a spectacular campaign to raise funds from wealthy players who all desire to see eUSA bleed.
eUSA, meanwhile, dipped its finger into the financial reserve and beat back with aplomb. Without revealing any details, eUSA hasn’t come anywhere CLOSE to scraping the bottom of its financial barrel, let alone start collecting significant donations from private citizens. (Rea
😛millions and millions).
(Yes, there was a propeganda campaign conducted by certain higher-ups in eUSA designed to convince our enemies that we’d begun to raise significant private funds… Maybe some private citizens donated some… maybe not. It was mostly a BS campaign designed to impose fear.)
Anyway, you see my point? The following should be acknowledge
😛
1 - eUSA is basically the 10th strongest military power in the game.
2 - eUSA is probably the most financially secure power in the game.
3 - Money wins.
In the face of those who might accuse me of stating the obvious up to now, I want to take this a step further…
Those of us who have been playing this game for a long time know that eUSA has been looked down upon as a crappy ally. We’ve been selfish, fickle, and prickly. We’ve also suffered much from our Real Life international reputation, but even some of that ends up trickling into our game too.
But let the eWorld know. eUSA is the most desirable ally in this game. You may have to swallow your pride to admit it (and some of you won't... watch the comments.) But here, take a Big Mac to help you wash down that pride. But the reality of it is this: eUSA is as close to an impregnable force as this game currently has, even when measured against those eNations which clearly have stronger Military power than we do.
So you can be as big as you want to be in Japan. LOL.
But good luck in Alaska.
One last thing.
I gladly invite eBulgaria to join our sphere of influence. I have always had a warmth for eBulgaria and would rather fight FOR them than AGAINST them.
So let’s talk.
But if you think you’re going to succeed against eUSA?
This, by the way, is why the real story in this game is and will continue to be the disposition of eRomania/eSerbia.

Bulgaria was big in Japan.

Alaska?????
not so much
Now for some meta taxation to triple the reserves.. :^)
So German, be proud
It was great fight no matter what. Next time Alaska will fail 😛
bring it
change of plans, usa was not a priority + you have too much puppets on your side
Strong logic - when you do a co-op operation to invade someone its called friedship/brotherhood, but when defender co-operates with friends to save themselves from attackers, it`s called having puppets etc. By your logic you are the puppets to the ones who brought up the idea of attacking USA.
Bulgaria will be always welcome (for me rather as a friend though). It's time BG had some solid success in the balkan region tbh, the old days (like, 2010) were fun.

Well... i fought for eUSA only because there was Bulgaria on the other side and it was epic 😃
I really don't have good oppinion about eUSA for over 2 years now... and if this was eChile's attack, i'd go all in 🙂 No matter CO on eUS side... 😛
well, i still have good opinion about eusa 🙂
btw, echile is puppets of ebg/fyrom
Gnilraps:
"By average damage alone, eBulgaria should be able to be big in Alaska.
But they aren’t. They suck in Alaska."
I think you want Bulgaria stay here 😃
so, you didnt need to borrow money to fight? you and your allies did it all by yourselves?
If this is the case, please pay me the money that was lent to your cause. I mean it was only over 500k, but the way you write, it was just a bluff to steal money from those who have always supported eUSA and her allies.
To clarify the above statement (I dont want the wrong people to think badly about him), money was not lent to Ginlraps, but was lent/given to other citizens to set COs for eUSA.
They wont talk about the money, because money BG spend on whole campaign (usa, latvia, japan and protecting regions) is less than half of what Latvia spend.
This has nothing to do with Latvia, this is the USA... well from my reading of the article it talks about the USA... but my English is not too crash hot, just ask anyone in eAustralia when they read my crappy articles
Then again Bulgaria will not talk about the ammount of RL money spent on this battle, which I can guarantee is a small fraction of what Latvia(or USA) spent. Then again Bulgaria will not talk about the fact that it has 3-4x the damage of Latvia, so obviously in order to have hopes at victory the damage difference has to be covered.
@casadeli we have 1 or 2 goldbuyers

u lost in Japan,they loose here....so what's the point o this?
of*
I came here to say
"inb4 they say 'we spent much less than you'"
but it was already said.
I fail to understand how being able to defend your homeland with a wad of cash makes you "The most desirable ally in the game".
Friends and allies got nothing to do with it as even your enemies come for CO's.
because this game PRETENDS to be about national pride, but it is actually about spending money.
It is about spending money and you do it well to protect yourself. Still don't know how that makes you the most desirable ally in the game or just celebration jacked up speak lol?
if we are secure, we are a good ally. And we also have decent damage.
I don't think that logic defines a good ally. It goes beyond keeping your own regions secure. Especially since you have colonies and RWs where your soldiers fight for TP.
Your a decent ally I wouldn't say great. I also think we would be hard pressed to name a great ally.
I agree with Gnilraps, because you can`t be fully commited to support others when your own cores are under attack.
Plus, I can`t say one bad thing about USA as an ally, and I`ve been involved in Pacifica/LV-USA relationships since basically the beginning(early 2014).
Greece is forceful house 😃

U still don't get it. U didn't win coz of the Co's. That is what the funny part is. U spent millions and didn't manage to win a single round. They just made the battle epic and u guys spent all u had earned in more than a month in just a single round
U just won coz Greece proposed ne on Bulgaria. And BG needed to save their damage for a prolonged war. Greeks also knew their was no other option to protect you other than proposing a NE. So they did it even though they know it will adversely affect their other allies too.
cool story bro
Okay, then put your money where your mouth is bucko

Now..when the waves of this tidal attack on our territories have subsided, we should add another agenda on our list. It's the about the country in this article's title: eJapan.
Our focus on the lesson of power should shift there. For far too long the shenanigans of the PTO government of eJapan have been deemed unimportant and swept under the rug. I think the time is ripe to show that helping the enemies of eUS should not go unpunished.
tl;dr Basically what I'm saying is that the Empire of the Rising Sun should fall under eUS protective custody.
You think Japan had a choice or enough firepower to do anything against Bulgaria on their own? You should wipe Canada too in that case, 'cause they "let" your enemies land
Lets just say that I heard some birdies singing about eJapan doing more than just 'letting' them land.
you kidding me right??!! regularly're losing elections in Japan, you didnt got a place in government,simply you did not have a chance against us,so you leave Japan,ok.Now you saying that we had deal with Bulgaria??What are we get with this agreement? They erase us,they keep our regions.Latvia and USA could not win the battle against them and Japan was supposed to defend against AS 😃 It's a bit pathetic and miserable from your side.
As expected from you lot to act so condescending.
We were losing the elections, because your PTO group kept importing voters continuously..so, ofc that the numbers were eventually on your side. Not only that, you systematically persecuted and bullied any of the half-decent people that (are) were there. Lies, trolling, insults and hatred - those are your tools for getting rid of anyone who doesn't think like you. If you exclude the your clique of 'friends' spanning across several countries, everyone else knows full well what you are: a PTO colony of rejects, hiding behind the skirts of its big-mama country.
I know for a fact that a deal was made and its merits aren't necessarily reflected by the game mechanics and eJapan's general benefit. 🙂 Someone's pockets were filled not to offer any kind of resistance to the AS.
Svinjhro, aJDEe oladi!
OOOooOoo La da da diii daaaaa
Svinjhroooo, AJDE OLADIIIIII!
"We were losing the elections, because your PTO group kept importing voters continuously.." ahhahahah thats right,you did not know to bring people in Japan,and thats your mistake
" Lies, trolling, insults and hatred - those are your tools for getting rid of anyone who doesn't think like you." yes,only we write insults ,you are good,innocent.....
"hiding behind the skirts of its big-mama country." Yes,and thats reason why Japan have MPP with Serbia and other country 😃
now cry and go to hide under the skirt of your mom
Padre, ne shvataš količinu svoje nebitnosti. 😉
As the French say..'I fart in your general direction'.
