There is a way for us to be unbreakable or at least the closest thing to it. We're just choosing not to.

Yes Volk, I'm sure you could have ruined 4 people by now. /sarcasm
Yeah, cause that's TOTALLY what I said. /sarcasm
Uh huh. How about we trade accounts and see if you can do it.
Sure.
Then again, we completely ruined you and murdered the smeg out of Dogs.
Actually you gave me the God of all ratios. To bad there's nothing to use it on. You should have been murdering from the get go though.
Hey hey I am not being cocky, I'm having fun. Volk relax.
Freen still is.
You guys know very well that with you in such good positions relative to us, we can't fight blow for blow. Being standarded to 0 troops and cash every run makes setting up the next one difficult sometimes. You each have several hundred billion of not trillions of dollars of troops on the market, an advantage which we don't have and can't match without an equally long time unopposed. Were positions reversed, you couldn't either, so don't even talk that kind of smack.
Yes, I could. We all have a lot of troops on the market, but I could have ruined LF without ever buying them, were I in your position. I'm sure it is difficult to set up for new runs, we are trying to make it hard on you guys. I would have gladly just given up my land and starting playing in normal runs, if Freen hadn't been such a jackass though. Easiest takedown ever, until Freen started mouthing off. That's what big mouths get you.
All in all I'd say we are kicking ass given what we started with. We have been able to break and drop at least 200k if not more land every run since we started depsite your best efforts to keep us down, and we start from nothing at the beginning of every run thanks to your standards. You guys are fighting to keep us down, so don't complain when we return the favor. It just so happens that the relative damage we do to you is huge compared to what you do to us.
Yeah, you are doing well. Read above for why we are actually fighting. We set ourselves up to be taken down, and then you guys come in talking all this smack, and well, we got annoyed, thus we decided to actually fight, instead of going with the original plan of letting ourselves be taken down and thus actually playing in a real game again. None of us counterattacked all that hard the first time we got hit, I don't think.
If maging land were all you were doing, we wouldn't be dropping it. You are maging and LOCKING land, and have been unopposed in doing so for ages now. Now that there is some resistence, have fun with it and take advantage of the huge base you have to work with, because you have been completely failing to do so up til now. I would say that, far from us being weak, you guys are being incredibly weak in that with the massive headstart you have, you've been unable to defend yourself at all.
Completely failing? We all had networths approaching or surpassing 1 billion. However, I get your point, we having been down very well about locking that land up. Fine, if you want it that way, we can do it that way. SHould have done it in the first place actually. That was dumb.
Now stop whining about it and play it out. We aren't going anywhere, and you know that if positiions were reversed, you would be doing something similar. Hell, I remember when volk onlined me when I was emp - just be glad we aren't doing like that.
Actually I would be doing something different. You were an unclanned emp Shads, there's a difference. We've made this about as easy as we could on you guys.

The situation is different though--if you were not clanned, this would never have happened because you would keep each other in check, and nobody would have a market monopoly at the moment.

I suppose we did give you a good ratio, but good luck doing anything with it with that triggerhappy clanmate of yours getting in the way of what you need to keep some of those mages haha.

It's not hard to take you guys down, but it is a task to keep you guys down, and to do that, the land needs to go. When you guys are on a level with the rest of us, it will be an even fight.

You can't lock when there was no one to take it from you...

And we do not have billions to trillions of troops on the market, I can't speak for the others, but I can honestly tell you at present, I have no more than 75mil of T1,T2, and T3 and less than 200k of T4 on the market. If that's trillions then damn I need to learn math.

Seriously, you guys are really annoying, not really by your actions, by what your saying. If massive ego had a picture to go with the name, I'm sure Freen would definitely be up there, Shadow hasn't really said much and Rudder hasn't said a word.

Anybody with 3 people and the resources Shadow had when he got off vacation again could have broken us in a solo type and dump land, it really is not an accomplishment and you know it, yet you are making it sound like you did it with awesome skill. Get over yourselves.

I did break you all solo when I came out of vaca, but I didn't dump it and was standarded and stolen from for my trouble. That's not really sitting back and letting yourselves get broken. As a result, I decided that if you were going to be brought down, the land had to go, and Freen and Rudder agreed. Simple as that. Nothing mean or ego-oriented about it, it's just the easiest way to do thing.

I remember about 2 weeks ago you said you dumped 2 tril in T1 and T2 on the market, did it all get bought out? If what you say is true, maybe this won't take as long as I expected.

Of course, if you guys just step down, open some defense holes and stop standarding and stealing from us each run, we will stop dropping the land, because I love having lots of land when I am not having to fight tooth and nail for it.

It's not the intial break that was hard, that was a joke because I had 700 bil to work with. Afterwards it was an accomplishment, becuase I generally start my run with 2 bil cash and 0 troops. To go from that to a breaking army takes a bit of work, even with a team.

Yes, all my troops were bought out a while ago. I can show you the logs if you want, it was really impressive, I signed on one day with about 1 trillion gold on me and pretty much nothing to do with it.

Heh, that's pretty sweet. I don't want to see logs though, I don't care too much one way or another.

but yeah.. if you guys want us to stop dropping land, just open up the defenses until the land is a little more spread out and stop standarding, and we will just play normally. I will anyway. You know very well that you can't defend the land you are holding at the moment, so it's a matter of choosing whether or not we drop it.

It's not our fault no one was around to keep us in check. You left.

Point.

Right... we'll see about how easy it is to take us down in a bit here.

It was looking like you had decided to take over again. We wanted to put a stop to that before it got started.
Of course, if you guys just step down, open some defense holes and stop standarding and stealing from us each run, we will stop dropping the land, because I love having lots of land when I am not having to fight tooth and nail for it.
I'd be willing to do that, if you'd tell Freen to knock off the BS.

Actually we probably can defend it, we just haven't been so far.

I was referring to what arthus is holding at the moment.

Duh, I aided over 1.2 billion net away and changed race and spent all my other turns attacking, your telling me I was left with little troops? I'm not gonna do much anymore, exams are up. No point trying to defend land when I don't have the time to do much. You can use my land to attack LF and stop complaining that you have no land to work with.

It's not really clan hopping unless you stay out of the clan. This was more of an emergency procedure because Arthus is trigger happy and screwed me out of 400k land, as you pointed out.

See, you staying out of the clan Shadow is clan hoping more than Volk who just did it to get his land back and rejoined right away. He can still be hit unlimited times, you cannot.

I was just joking, I don't care much either way. I had my battle with clan hopping at rwl, I'm not going to start it here.

On a completely unrelated note, you guys need to stop forgetting shields.
