Why should I not be extremely frustrated?

What is the point of the wars - I don't think I've seen eAustralia win one since I joined a few weeks ago.

Considering how Chile clobbered the resistance effort is there any reason to think that things will change?

Please inform the noob how beating your head against the wall is fun and entertaining!

I hope I'm like a child asking the obvious question that the adults are too embarrassed to ask.

It's why IRC and the forums exist, to make it fun!
But yes,
Otherwise...it's incredibly tedious and boring xD

You're not going to win wars in a few weeks - and we did liberate several areas from Chile.

The problem is Chile is so much larger than us, so when their whole force fights us (like the resistance effort that just happened), we have to lose. However, they have to fight elsewhere. We either take back provinces and try and hold them when that happens, but that generally falls down when they attack, or we just piss them off so much that they give up. We've done it to many, many countries - eIndo

What is the point of wars in what Plato has decreed should be a war game.
Could you suggest an alternative for us Vyrin.
It is exactly like Arcaian has stated - its down to numbers, more will always beat less.
but it is also down to determination. Chile will have to keep concentrating on us, the moment they focus their attention elsewhere we wriggle free.\
Its a bit like "whack a mole" for the whacker where they would like to go on to bigger & better stuff but have to keep coming back to us

But then the goal should be to recruit/recruit/recruit. And then train/train/train the noobs. Like me.

Sure sounds simple, doesnt it? If it were that easy, we would have a booming population. But its unfortunate that its very hard to get people here to play, that stick around to be big and strong like their Dad.

You can't really recruit people to a country that doesn't exist... not many people actually want to fight in a war like this, which is the precise reason why we will always win these wars.

An eAussie making sense. Brace yourself for the backlash Vyrin.
