TRAINING WARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We fucking need some. We always seem to get the short end of the stick when it comes to training wars. Why is that? Does the eCanadian government not get it? I know there are some smart citizens involved, so why does nobody push a training war through? I understand we are in the midst of switching presidents, which is fine, but can't someone explain to him how to start one up?
Almost every other country in the eWorld has at the LEAST, one training war going if not a full blown war, resistance war, something! We eCanadians are sitting here to rot, not gaining much needed experience. Not using our weapons, which in turn has helped keep the market prices so low that no weapons manufacturer can be profiting, or even being close to breaking even?
New citizens get bored and don't have enough money to constantly move to gain valuable experience.
Take note congressman and newly elected president:
WE NEED TRAINING WARS. Not tomorrow. Not next week. TODAY. NOW!
Get it done.
Please remember buy smart, buy Canadian, buy often!!!

Great article....like you're newspapaer 😃
Now, ignoring the fact that the only reason we haven't had a training war is because the Philippine President had his house destroyed and life turned upside down and thus didn't think to himself while living in a typhoon shelter "but Canada needs training wars!"
We have training wars. The Sol Games. There is a new President of the Philippines, he doesn't live there, so day, theoretically, at 1pm, he will press a button.
And you will get to fight.
Now, if that wasn't the case you would be at a severe disadvantage, mainly because training wars take a while to setup. Unless your advocating we attack Hungary, and we don't in case we need to block later, Canada would have to make an MPP with an attacking country (at least 24 hours not to mention negotiations) or setup one with Ireland (much more than 24 hours).
I set up the Sol Games...God got in the way. I apologize that you can't have war yet because the previous President of the Philippines had his life destroyed.
Sorry.
War is Hell, but Peace is Heaven. Let us therefore move along onto the Way of Peace. These are the teachings of the great famous world progressive thinker whose name was unfortunately lost in history.
A bit of hyperbole there "Almost every other country".
We were about to have a training war, then a hurricane and earthquake nailed the region where our TW was going to be taking place. Give it a bit of time to sort out something else, or figure out if this one will kick back up. It's been two weeks. We went a lot longer before the war started.
"We fucking need some"
Perhaps take a small side note to the much larger one Jacobi has pointed out were another human beings home and life has been left it shambles is this one about the use of proper language. If you truly feel dropping the F Bomb will gain you any respect then you need to shake your head.
Voted just so that all others may see how inapropriate your words are and a lack of respect for others well being!
Should be a fight today around 1pm EST
I think the delay was because of the current crisis in the Philippines
RL, not in game. So it's understandable and I think we can all wait a few days.
Had I known that was the reasoning behind it, my article would not have been worded as such.
Cypher, I wasn't trying to earn anyone's respect by 'dropping the F Bomb'. I got my point across and apparently it garnered attention in the right areas.
Maybe an article to state WHY the training wars were postponed, instead of just assuming everyone knew this. I didn't even know there was a RL crisis in the Phillipines, so there was no way I would have known that could be the reason behind not having a training war. Myself, and many other citizens have been in the dark about this and got fed up over the promised training war, and wasted valuable money and moving tickets to ensure we got our experience in. Many others aren't that fortunate to have the expendable money to move for a day, week, whatever, in order to continue fighting.
Forgive me for not knowing about someone's RL problems.
My thoughts go out to those affected by the RL crisis.
I'm sure anyone can understand that RL has effected this one training war, but why where there none before that?? One training war does not excuse everything.....
You didn't know about all of that in the Pacific? It has been all over the news for the past 4 or 5 days now. How did you miss it?
There has been articles mentioning what has happened in regards to the training war. I am not in the government, and haven't PM'd with anyone in it, but I knew about it.
NoDoubtguy: The TW was set up less than a week after the last provinces were returned to our fold, and it became obvious we were not going to take out Hungary at the time. It takes time to get a training war started, and if you can't understand that, then you need to find a little bit of patience. Training wars involve getting MPP's with foreign countries, some of which we may not have relations with, or may not be interested in letting us get involved. That means they need to talk to their congress and president and probably at least pass a informal vote on it. Then their is the pre-amble of our congress and president deciding on which training war we want to get involved in.
Sheesh, patience has long been considered a virtue people, remember that.
Etemanaki,
I honestly don't pay attention to the news. I find I get less down on life if I don't focus on other people's problems around the globe.
That said, I am subscribed to both the MoD and CND and haven't seen any updates from them since the original TW article last week.
In RL, I have plenty patience. In a game, I prefer not to sit idle for long periods of time, as has happened many times since I joined this game earlier in the year. It gets annoying when you can only train and work each day.
We have let eHungary set up shop in Manitoba now while we whine about training wars.
SERIOUSLY?!? Training Wars? We still are involved in a REAL WAR!
The eHungarians have moved from N. Caucasus, which was Hun high oil.
Alaska is now high oil for them, but Alaska was settled long ago - and technically is not our priority - it is Uncle Sam's.
We should have kept up the attacks upon the Hun, now they've solidified their position in eCanada.
At this rate we're gonna make eRussia look patient - vis a vis WSR and NCaucasus.
I even posted an article on the hotsheet in regards to intelligence I recieved from an operative in eHungary that they were funnelling citizens into Manitoba.
I didn't even recieve a single PM or comment about it.
Now there are 975 Huns in Manitoba.
2 days ago there were 740.
This is angering me.
Lets stay on focus.
Oh, and so far NOBODY seems to realize how we will win this war.
That is not angering, that is demoralizing.
Am with Tyler on that one. We should still be working out a way to take out the huns. They are our single biggest priority atm.
They have a Q5 hospital in Manitoba. They are, without a doubt, digging in.
I'm all for taking the Huns out of Manitoba... but if we're not actively fighting them, at least the training wars keep our troops sharp and constantly improving no?
I agree with Ty, Elvis and ete.
As for this stupid article, because it IS stupid, people have real lives.
If I got hit by a motherfuc**g typhoon, I wouldn't be playing this game.
Gotta agree with Jacko's explanation
Fair enough, people do have real lives. I even gave my sympathy towards them. Sorry for not following CNN religiously... or at all.
The article is stupid because it points out the flaws in the communication lines?
Tyler's post is alarming. I did not know how dire that situation was. I wondered why the battles in Sask & Man had stopped, is there a reason for that?
I'd much prefer to fight the huns and make my weapons and damage count... but I can't, I don't have that power. My article was meant to raise awareness about the need for training wars, or more specifically, but not mentioned, wars in general. I got my point across and brought up some very relevant debate.
@Tyler if you message Coda or Cain i am sure they can explain in great detail why the press on the huns have stopped. We know we can not take them 1 vs 1 and will need help from all of EDEN to insure they are removed. EDEN has a prioritized list and i am sure the remaining 3 regions are on there somewhere we must just wait paitiently for our name to be called again.
I[m hungry
I just cleaned my house, it looks great.
Hungary is #1, but if we are not making moves there is it not beneficial to have training wars so that we are as strong as possible when it comes time to take on Hungary?
I'm asking because I want to understand. If there's a good reason not to have training wars then I can understand that.
Bit of self-promotion but relevant to the discussion:

@ Cypher Rahl
Tyler F Durden would like the eCanadian People to be informed as to why our attacks upon the eHun have stopped. The people shouldn't have to go PMing High Command for this info.
This should be conveyed to the people by the Government. This is why there are Gov't Organizations calle😛 Ministry of Communications, right?
Also, Tyler F Durden has written ad nauseum about how to defeat the eHuns and claim eCanada.
His ideas fall on deaf ears and may force him to run for office himself - just to get the bloody job done right.
Tyler F Durden does not want to be President right now, but hopes the new boss is not the same as the old boss, to paraphrase the old Peter Townsend (The Who) and understands military strategy to get the job done. The new boss says that he intends to rid eCanada of the eHuns. That will be the barometer of his success.
Oh, and Saskatchewan and it 79 residents we can't even take.

Why try to embarrass Shagaho for not watching the news and putting RL and game together? I for one don't correlate the two. This is the game world not the real one. I'm pretty sure, most of the time.
What about the lack of communication coming from the Government? Why don't they post daily updates? MoD orders should be posted daily even to say we have nothing for you to do today so we don't waist our time looking for something to kill.
Don't criticize uninformed articles if it is your job to inform people.
i want to fight!!!
You can, here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/battles/show/7698" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/battles/show[..]7698
Welcome to the Sol Games Canada.🙂
Best regards,

As I understand it, attacking Hungary is basically a waste of money. We need all of our allies to help, but unfortunately they're focused on battleground Europe. How do u think the US feels about Alaska and Washington? We'll be fighting for our provinces soon...
Thank you Sol for your training war.
Both sides should be careful to hold their anger. The OP is by no means required to watch RL news to understand whats happening in this video game. Infact since i have no cable TV i myself learned about the typhoons through in game news channels. But i spend 4h a day reading IG news.
I hope to see an increase in government communication to the people with our new overlords in place for the next month.
