The Bitter Taste of Failure

Day 805, 14:34 • Published in Finland Latvia

• by Vidvuds Riikste

All the Northern wars of the last 6 or so months have been real Northern Quagmires - much ado, nothing to show for it. That might change, of course, but for now this rule still stands strong, and I'm pleased to say that the latest EDEN incursion has bogged down even before it had any chance to begin for real.

The message is clear - you Finns can't just waltz in and do as you please any more, no matter how many friends you bring along and no matter how much you hate the Latvians. And we won't be intimidated into hiding under our beds instead of helping our allies in Western Europe & anywhere else, so any objectives you might have had have not been achieved.

Of course, you can try again. Why not? We'll grow stronger for it, and you will learn some lessons.
But today the bitter taste of defeat is yours to savour. Cheers!

Rasti Day 805, 21:22

The main goal was to wake up the players, and it succeeded.

vbam Day 805, 23:06

Ei muuta sitä tosiasiaa, notta Eesti on kehitysmaa..

Primal Day 805, 23:28

Finland lost this fight fair and square but looking at the bigger picture there are only winners. Don't count your chickens before they're hatched, dear.

Huligaaniperhonen Day 806, 00:41

ME-ME-ME-MEGA FAIL

Damn trolls...

Hablos Bablos Bueblos Day 806, 00:45

Like avec said, failtroll is fail.
EDEN wasn't really involved in this battle. This was our own war, personal trip for revenge, yet to be delivered.

Wolter Day 806, 01:00

Well, if we take in count that this was only small part of Latvian military force and mainly we fought 5 times, but Finns fought to max, then, yeah. That was a fail.

Taidleja Day 806, 01:03

HAHAHA FINLAND FOUGHT ALONE? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA....

Vilhelmi Kanervikkola Day 806, 01:49

"how much you hate the Latvians" We don't hate eLatvians, they just seem to hate us so much that they really think that we hate them.

Yes, if by "completly other story" you mean Finland failed miserably then yes.

Thomas Taubert Day 806, 03:42

@Taidleja
Yes, totally alone

Okkius Pyromanius Day 806, 04:18

We had some allies with us, but I guess eStonia didn't have any, because they claimed themselves so neutral I wan't to cry 😛

Florida Man Day 806, 04:30

HAIL PHOENIX!!!!

Jager Motti Day 806, 05:05

i wonder how much theyre pop. dropped after the battle... 777 fighters did over 900 000 dmg THIS IS FINLAND PERKELE!

Civilizationist Day 806, 05:17

I thought we attacked eStonia 😃

Trieciennieks Day 806, 05:24

Respect to Finns for those >900k damage. It was quite impressive. But the winner can be only one.

Remember - if you ever decide to attack one of the Baltic states, you will fight against all three of them. No matter if there are MPPs between them.

Heke69 Day 806, 06:02

Finland fought alone. Rest of the people besides eFinnish ppl are telling lots of stories. Look at the statistics, noobs, and learn about it!

We will visit again, friends..

..And we will bring more thirsty friends with us! 😉)

finsoldier Day 806, 06:21

Im waiting for your visit so we could test how well you can attack.

Rob Dougan Day 806, 06:33

Well didn't fight TOTALLY alone, but we made 75% of the damage.
(Atleast. Some irl finn's didn't have finnish citizenship here.)

LaJaneks Day 806, 10:13

I wonder how much gold did Fins spend? 777 Fighters and 900.000 damage. Uh that should be a lot...

Virietis Day 806, 12:26

unkown city Day 806, 13:15

LOL 😃 Vote!

Dimmu Day 806, 15:10

LaJaneks.. Not much.. Most of the gold that we spent was from our personal stash..

Also why so proud? We fought mostly alone against armies of Estonia, UK, Malaysia, Russia and Lithuania..

Mordos Day 806, 19:17

It was great fight on both sides!

c1trons Latvietis Day 807, 03:18

Voting for this would be inappropriate.
I realy feel ashamed for my country to post articles like this.

Still this fight proved, that You can't ocupate us so easily anymore.

We has armies and friendz >😃
Ofcourse if you guys like to spend money on tanking - do it. You won't break our forces.

Viva la phoenix!!

Elvroy Day 807, 04:36

Again? Hell yeah. Estonia couldn't boom so what's there to loose? We (Stonians and Finns) get a thrill every time eStonia forgets to renew a certain one MPP.
