Air Strike the Edge of Glory
Molly Jo
I'm on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment of truth
It's only partially a campaign
I feel like campaigning again, but not really so I give you this.
Air Strike!
As a country we tend to get stuck in a rut, so I think now is the time we should consider Air Striking someone, whether it be someone weaker than us, or making a deal with a friend for some land, while we continue to fight for our home land. Anyway I now give you a list of targets based on my own thoughts.
Mexico; TACO TIME!
Some dreams never die, like mine to invade eMexico with force! It is not a logical choice, but I had to list it.
North Korea
We could try convince China to release some of North Korea, and then we Air Strike it!
Hawaii
We convince the USA to give us Hawaii.
France
Air Strike France, cuz hey who doesn't want to take over France?
It isn't that far off, we can do this!
Though I know its not much of a list, just a few random ideas, I'm sure a more serious target could be worked out if given more than 5 minutes of thought.
The Edge of Glory
Time for a little honesty, when I started up the ARP, I never really dreamed we'd be with in shots range of the number one party ranking. But that is a reality now, and it is something I could see us pulling off. I believe this because we have an active core of members and voters, we secured the same amount of congress seats as the Knight Hawks this term, and we had the highest vote count in the last Party President election. So to my ARPers, Lets Do This!
Out on the edge of glory
And I'm hanging on a moment with you

It is the best perk of playing with Larni/Daenerys Stormborn Targaryen "Mother of Dragons."

Girls just want to have fun 🙂
C'Mon People! Weak up!
Organize a resistance war in Auckland
You can win a RW medal and also can make tons of easy BHs there!
GoGoGo!
Voted! An airstrike would be fun. : ) But I think only one of those listed could seriously happen. xD The eSouth African option works too.

I'm voting this article for the incentive of committing random acts of violence from above!
Yes! Airstrike the taco's!
Actually, I think the Hawaii choice is more logical 🙂
o7 ARP
It'll happen when it happens.
FYI the last time I heard these words: "I'm on the edge of glory .. And I'm hanging on a moment of truth"
was right before Discrate was elected CP.
Back to the subject, I need to know more about the border mechanics rules of counter-attack. Can the nation we airstrike hit another of our regions disconnected from the immediate strike area? For e.g. eAustralia hits Sorlandet so eNorway can hit Queensland because it belongs to the attacking country?
Heard a lot of crap about this airstrike and some say it can swing both ways with non OR attacks. Need clarification thanks.
Mostly just quoting music for my articles for Funzies.
From my understanding, if we don't land the first Victory of the Air Strike, the attack ends. If we do win the first hit, we have a region, and sure they can take it back, but I don't think that they can take back the region, and then attack our home region.
Cool thanks. Sounds like a plan then. I asked Vanek about timing and he was saying there's a minimum period from resource gathering until the strike was allowed?

Yeah cheers I've read that but it's confusing as with most things eRep produce.
.. and just coming back from the eUS legions let me say re. Hawaii we have more chance negotiating an OR from eBrazil than we have an OR from the eUS 😛
The list was mostly just something I threw together on the spot.
It was an inspiring list, no doubt lol
The Cabinet did discuss air strikes this term actually. I'm sure that next term it will be discussed again and one day it will happen.
What's the minimum time frame from 100%/100% until it can be proposed?
immediately
Oohh so Vanek was bullshtting me. Psh oh well he's no longer my CP so who cares lol
I think so anyway. It's possible that I have it wrong.
Really there are only two countries we have to hit and we all know they start with C and I, I don't think we need extra enemies, and I didn't appreciate the guy who commented about South Africa, I know it was tongue in cheek but it wasn't funny.
HAIL NaN........................ Down with CoT the backstabbers.
Airstrikes are expensive things to raise and you want to waste it on a country that will win the first defensive? I thought we could at least use this god-like opportunity to win one region in a country where we can out-bake them making bread, at least 😛
Yeah maybe, but there wouldn't be anything like the desire to destroy that I would against those two horrible countries. Maybe we could get a territory somewhere and maybe we can do a deal with victim country so theres no hard feelings, we seem to be hated enough already.
Hmm .. wouldn't say we're hated. It's only by circumstance we're in the too hard basket. I don't mean to re-open old wounds, but if eAustralia joined CoT as a founding member when it was first offered to us, we'd have a full nation. It was pure arrogance that caused that decision, nothing else. By the time we felt we had no other choice, eChile made it clear it was payback for making them wait and made us suffer for it. The cost of business. But that's the past now. Now we just have to make a go of it with the allies we bring into NaN and make the best of it.
But on the airstrike, I think we should hit a country of lesser consequence to our position with neighbouring adversaries 😮)
Well you really did make it sound like Chile are hateful mongrels, you described a massive Chile dummy spit, oh, did we keep them waiting ?.. oh the poor diddums's. What a lame reason for hating and persecuting a people,, because they had to wait... gee, no wonder they hate us... see how pathetic you made Chile sound, thanks Mick, knew you'd be a good bloke.
greg once again you show yourself in poor light due to this hatred. do yourself a favour and keep it more mild.I cringe when i read these comments of yours
The point of an airstrike would be to have a region that Chile and Indo can't get to which we have some semblance of a chance of holding for a few months.
Well i very much approve of an airstrike. Some of the options are challenging though. The USA would probably not give us hawaii, and france is protected by eden, north korea is possible.
Airstike a CoT minion. Lets see how much the big boys will protect their little members.
In the words of a former Prime Minister - "Sorlandet is ours". hint hint
Out of curiosity, what happened to the eAUS pride. You know that thing that you all go yelling about when eAUS is getting pumped into the ground. Now you are going to waste money and resources to Air Strike 1 piece of land where yet again you will be stuck and limited and then again, probably......wiped.
Like Larni said, if you are going to Air Strike and waste resources at least give someone a headache over it, not to crawl into a corner in the world and count butterflies while NOTHING happens.
Better yet, waste that money and weapons ON RECRUITING NEW PLAYERS. Or is this another attempted by people like Infin and Binda33 to just have a secured 1 region so they can play Congress and screw it all up again and again.
You went from Austrian Pride to becoming cowards. North Korea actually suits some of you very well. Oh the irony!
god I hate agreeing with you Icey. 😉
Serving what purpose? Come on, think about it. Wouldn't the chance of building region numbers, strategically, be a good use of all of the donations put in by the community? After all, eAustralia is sort of short on regions 😮)
Going herp derp we did an airstrike and then lost it is like grinding up money and weapons in a giant blender and then pouring it into the garbage.
Using a feature of the game is not cowardly, being a big country picking on smaller countries [Serbia, Poland, etc.] is Cowardly.
Get some facts before spewing crap.
No, that is being bullies. Coward is something like eAUS hiding behind their allies, which is true for both real life and in this game.
you mean i.e. Chile and Indonesia, the rats.
Well then Mr Icetek, why don't you go be a hero in real life and run at some turbans with a gun mate 🙂
"You went from Austrian Pride to becoming cowards."
I was never Austrian, thanks :3
MrCook i did the whole Iraq thing. Unlike Australian troops who hide in bases all day long i did my time as a foot soldier. The whole Austrian thing was a typo, but its nice to see people too stupid to even realize that. You have joined the ranks of Binda33, who can not tell her ass from her nose apart.
Yes, because Australian troops get to make the decision if they get deployed overseas. My brother is serving in the army as a combat engineer, 3 years ago he asked to be apart of the regiment that was deployed, yet he is still waiting to go over, as are many troops. So here's an idea; take your high and mighty pride, and go to Austria.
I have no "Austrian" pride. lol
Return Sorlandet to Australia!
Don't forget India. Its the most popular travel destination these days.
France is too easy
