Operation: Kick Ass? (Taco Bell)
Nathan Woods
For those of you who don't know: We going to rawr with Mexico. Why should we go to war with Mexico you ask? First off; shame on you for questioning the power of rawr, and second, after a trout slapping, I'll tell you why.
Mexico has -nada- MPPs
That's right. They're basically asking for us to attack them. The only real reason we couldn't win a battle is because it would be something like a one on eight grudge match. Soooo they don't have any now. Can't really beat us. 😉
We can actually win a battle...?
Contrary to popular belief, this actually is possible, as read above. Anybody else want to see how Indo reacts? Maybe the come out of their shell to fight us? Or maybe they're still sissy's.
Economical Stimulus
A few wars are pretty necessary in a game like this every once in a while....why fight it?
Leave them some crumbs
We don't need to take all of their regions. Leave them three...or two...regions, and eventually they will get them back in resistance wars, or try. It's just more goodies for us...bonus pointz?
Bonus Pointzz
For every fight you participate in, you gain 2xp. Pretty sweet, eh? Not to mention...you can regain 50 wellness while spending minimal wellness. (Rawr help)
"Lulz" never goes out of style
The name says it all. It's no real life guys, nobody dies, the admins wouldn't let that happen anyway. 😃
America, bring out your dusty rifles, and unleash the dogs of RAWR!!!

voted still lol, only because your my future VP 😃
@Hari:
They are... however they have no MPP's WITH the PEACE nations.
Mexico was poorly managed
@Chis: Actually, you're going to be my future VP. 😉
So the wargames with Mexico are off? They've turned into a real war full of hatred?
@JosephL: OOOOOOOOOOooooooh. That doesn't make a lot of sense, but I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.
omg i've been waiting my whole life for this day!!!
i have to hurry and get my wellness to 60 so i can fight!!!
Rwar! This situation is like finding free money lying on the street - of course we should reach down and pick it up...
Instead of free money, its a free country. Or it was.
OPERATION TACO BELL.
Run for the border!
As an eTexan, I'm way ahead of you Publius.
I'm thinking the admins would let us get killed for some reason. In some sort of grim, humorous sort of way.
Mexico was taken over internaly by the Polish, so there's not a lot of mexican's left.
Plus the global MPP propsals being voted on right now put's us in yet another good situation, as it will take many of the heavy hitters around 40 some odd hours to actually get an MPP with Mexico.
Okay...war is great...but has anyone really done a cost analysis on this "economic stimulus" package...how much does is it going to cost the government...and what exactly are the benefits to the government...the economy...and on individuals?
I want to eat that kitten
Alphawatever: everyone above level 5 gets a free power up to 90+ wellness.
everyone that has gold or USD to burn will get to level up, increasing their total potential damage. they'll also buy guns, food, moving tickets, etc.
LOL
yeah,go ahead just bully the small nation with no MPP's, cause that's probably the only way eUSA will ever win a war
Alphamega's3: do you really need to ask that question? You already know the answer: no, because its RWAR, not war.
@ alpha it boosts the economy, specifically the Iron, Weapons, Oil, and Moving Ticket industries. It increases Production, so shockingly ,outside of Weapons and Moving Tickets markets, the prices of Finished goods and RM's drop. It increases morale, already we've seen that people are excited about this proposistion, it's not just a bleak outlook of participating in someone else war, and quite frankly w/o war, what are you gonna do in eRep, there's nothing to do. The new taxes, whether you agree to them or not, are designed to fund the war effort they were installed for this exact reason. You'll recieve a boost to your XP and you'll rank up, as well as being at full health.
My point is it should not be hard to do a basic cost analysis. If you had the numbers to support it helps the economy and even pays for yourself, then there would probably be more support for Sam's militaristic policies. A basic one would be tax revenue and GDP before and after...and maybe a long term measure meant of increase productivity because of the increased wellness. I am just one that believes that the numbers should guide all of the gov's actions.
Besides...if you really think there is nothing to do on eRep...I am not sure that clicking on a button will satisfy you that much...
FTL!
Sorry for the above statement... the "L" is supposed to stand for "lulz" >_>
@Alpha: The game itself loses a lot of it's point when you cannot RWAR. Weapon companies literally live for the RWAR, and they are a huge chunk of why eAmerica stays employed. If there was no market for weapons, the weapons and iron industry would collapse, and everyone's wages across the board would take a sharp kick to the groin.
Numbers aren't necessary for the discussion of RWAR. Common sense is.
Lulz cabinet approved.
You want stats? You compile them, it's not my job to find statistical data that reinforces common sense. People buy more during war...you need statistical data on that? People with higher wellness produce more, uh...it's a function of the game. You find the stats, and when they back up what I just said, we'll have a nice tall cool glass of Hawaiin Fruit Punch together in Baja.
I would have said tequila, but everyone was expecting me to there.
Oh and thanks for the clarifiaction Supah, I would have thought you were talking about Faster than Light travel if you hadn't said anything.
yeah, I believe we're calling it operation taco bell
Matza is only one!

@Swedish Guy: you're in Romania, and you're super-concerned about small nations being pushed around? Now it's my turn to LOL.
It's beneficial because even USNG can fight with Q1 weapons, or barehanded, then check themselves into hospitals, and after 1 or 2 days of fighting (you can do 2 if you do it right) get yourself up at or near 100 wellness. Production goes thru the roof! Prices fall, (in theory) and experience points are gained, as well as rank.
We have a lot of soldiers, but most are of low rank, and we need to rank up in order to defend ourselves.
btw, it's not going to be just us vs. Poland/Mexico. Look at the forums: a lot of Indo and Irani guys are buying tickets for Ciudad de Mexico right now.
Uncle Sam never laid it out, but I think it probably works out like this: we take a border territory or two, if the Indonesian mercenaries don't stop us, maybe hold them for awhile, then we start resistance wars in them and give them back.
In any case,
Sangre y Arena!
wkwkwkwkwkwk...
Cowards
I sell q2 weapons for only 21 USD!
Just donate the money and FIGHT!
RWARRR!!
