View Full Version : ROSH crisis!

After becoming involved in a war against other major powers, The Alliance ROSH was suddenly attacked on numerous frontiers by the TWC Alliance, starting with Nicosia.

The attack on the city went well as General JanTaihwo commented: “had it in mere seconds!”. But the Inhabitants were shocked to find out that the attacker had abandoned the city, merely minuets after capturing it.

It is rumoured that the attacks are being made because of ROSH’s involvement in the war TWC had against Peloponnisians some month ago. Apparently TWC still held grudge against them and decided to plan an attack against them which later got the name: Operation Peanuts of Wrath.

"This attack has nothing to do with the recent conflict between ROSH and TIGER" says TWC's current leader Cosmo Kramer. "Therefore are we only attacking ROSH".

Though we do wish to say that TWC supports TIGERS actions against ROSH.

lol..except your alliance forum page and private forum are still as leaky as ever...this is not news...Al Gewaria standards are slipping if they accept this kind of "Old News"

However, I'd like to wish all combatants a pleasurable battle and may the sneakiest win.

mwahahahahahaah.. ;waddle

meh, you would want us to purge everyone including people who may be innocent. I say if people are spying on us that at least means people consider us a threat.;pizza

errr no, it means you have people with loyalties that are elsewhere...every alliance suffers from it...you just more than most.

The problem with accepting anybody in so that you can boost your members is you are likely to accept spies and that's what happened.

But good luck to you..you really pushed the boat out on this one.....even though you didn't really get so wealthy by your own hard graft..but that's cool.

As long as you are having fun, we're happy.
yea its a game, its supposed to be fun(though it seems some people seem to forget this sometimes)

even though you didn't really get so wealthy by your own hard graft..but that's cool.
Though I do wish to know what you mean by this?

Hehe, that's some nice bluffing, the problem is that if there was a leak in these "private forums" then I think this attack would have been the first thing you would've known about. Have a good defeat ;)

we did know about this attack..we even knew what time and how much each of you had in the bank...but so what...at the end of the day it is where you are on the alliance page that counts and how much fun you had getting there.

enjoying the show so far...bout time we had a proper war

I think it's okay if the article is a bit old news, it's meant to report aftermath, not used as propaganda. ;) So I think it's still pretty much within the standards.

I don't suppose anyone else has noticed but due to the combined efforts of TIGER and TWC, ROSH is down to about 33 million in value, whereas it was twice that last night.

well pointed out Octavian,
"a single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic"
right you are othfa, and those statistics say that your million deaths as had you slip to, oh what is it thus far...12th??

So I don't think he should be sniffing at ROSH being 12th. It's still a good position to be in. Better than last, to be sure. :p

Well i got offered to buy a city from pelo and coz i like buying cities i bought it and it was nothing personal and it was 1 city! i didnt think u would take it so hard! so maybe i am the culprit for all those lives lost lately from our war!

Ummm it wasn't one city... try five.

You were activly funding their war.

Don't kid yourselves; this isn't just because of that.

You were rude to us, leveled our alliance and refused to reply to our generous offers of repurchasing the lost cities.

When you play the game as dirty as you guys did, you make enemies fast.

Enjoy your empire while it lasts. ;)

10-04-2006, 06:23 AM

Haha! what other city apart from izmir did i buy? you started attacking us so we attacked back!

Nice way to come back from a vacation anyways! to see you got zeroed! lol! oh wells its a war game and watch out! i might revenge myself from my zeroing! lol lets create sympathy for myself while i can! Player rank from 15ish to 132! aww poor me! :(

11.39pm 5th of September I offered Cosmo a deal on some of the cities that we had taken from you...I am still waiting for a reply...although it's a bit late now :D

I could post the exchanges I've had with Cosmo regarding the last ROSH TWC war..but you're not supposed to post PM's here just go ask him yourself before getting your facts wrong in public.

As for the nuking...well I can't speak for sh4d0w...he'll have to do that himself. Obviously he was with our alliance and so has feelings about TWC..but we did not ask him to nuke you guys, as far as we're concerned he's left the alliance and can do what he wants....and Octavian I'd never call nuking anything a waste ;) now when are you going to give me Antalya as you promised?

For 5000 geos? Sure.

10-05-2006, 12:02 AM

Well that about sums it up. TWC players...(yes plural) saying they are fed up with being zeroed and wanting to come into piece corpse.

hint..we haven't actually zeroed them yet because they haven't had any cities to zero...and the answer is no. we don't want or need any TWC plants.

10-05-2006, 12:08 AM

For 5000 geos? Sure.

Can we negotiate on the price? 5000 is a bit steep dont you think?

Every empire falls, whether from external.... or the internal. Babylon, Assyria, Persia, Alexander, Rome.... I could go on and on.

Aside from being the Top 5 Players and Top 5 Alliances but maybe to you there not.

I don't know if there's some deep philosophical meaning to that statement, but a quick check of the Alliance Page which is ranked on Alliance City value would seem to indicate that "in this game" that is how you measure empire...and yes they come and go..problem is you never had one to start with.

If on the other hand you measure it by amount of geos..well then nobody will ever know just how big an empire you..or we have.

Another measure may be in the number of friends you have in the game.......nah, I'm not here to make friends just war..friends are a by product of that and I think I have made some good friends...not quantity, but quality :D

Then again of course you can arrange the alliance page by number of members. perhaps that's how you measure your empire.

A quote from militiaman may be key here.

"Anybody else? C'mon, let's put TWC on the map. Even if we get 5 new players that will make a huge amount of difference in the alliance. To give you some numbers, at the moment TWC has 13 members, ROSH has 7, but the really top alliances have like 27, 36, 31 etc. It's either you guys or we have to risk some GEWar players who could be spies "

'Bout time you guys discovered TW Center. :)

Anyways, I think what scottishranger was trying to say is that cities, although a good measure of how powerful a player/alliance are in the game, is not the be all and end all of how powerful a player really is.

I'm sure there are tons of people who are sitting on large amounts of Geos and just waiting for the right time to unleash them. But because they don't have any cities, are they to be disregarded as a threat? Seems a bit foolish to me...unless you're sure how many Geos they have.

Just because ROSH makes city value the ultimate measuring stick for power in the game doesn't mean that everyone does. And cut us some slack, what do you expect from an alliance that is in its first true reset? The war is far from over...

othafa

10-05-2006, 11:52 PM

lol...of course the war is far from over, I think Luke said it himself on the forums a few days ago..this game doesn't really have winners and losers..it's about getting what you want out of the game that matters.

My point is that if what you consider to be success is not what we consider to be success then we are fighting two very different wars and the argument as to who has won and who has lost is therefore pointless.

So far I have listed several measures you could use. We are winning on ranking by city value..you are by number of players.

You are implying that at some point in the future this may change...yes it might..but I'm not a fortune teller, I can only tell you what the situation is now, and has been since the start of this game....despite all your plotting :D

So let's stop this pointless debate about who has the biggest p**** (empire) and get back to trying to achieve whatever it is in the game that we want

If you look at the alliance rankings, I do believe as Othafa said, it is city value that determines where your "empire" is ranked. I don't recall seeing anywhere that just because an alliance isn't high on the board, they aren't worthy of respect.

As for being in your first true reset, look at the membership of ROSH, and then Piece Corpse and find a common link from pre-to-post reset, you will find next to nothing. It just seems that some are doing better after their first reset than others.

We look forward to further engagements on the field of battle, where we seem to be more evenly matched. I feel we bring a gun to the knife fight on here.

Or tanks and helicopters against Kalashnikovs. Like in Vietnam, you know ;).
Anyway, since now ROSH (Piece Corps) worked well, we have to fight a long war if we want to succed.

No.

You said your alliance was 'split evenly' on the issue.

Even though that's quite impossible because you were a 7 strong alliance.

You know 7 can't be divided evenly. :(

Anyway, it's not as if your word is the most trustful in the game...

Where's your empire Nim?

Sold it all.

For a profit too.
