Then I will stick with it and see what happens. If I get arse raped by some big evil nation wearing a sand paper condom, then be prepared to hear me scream.

Fortunately, they cannot. Remember the rules about nation strength. You can only attack nations from half to double your own strength. So what the leaders will do is sic their equivalent members on us. Of course, if they've got 20 or 30 nations of our strength for each one of us, they can certainly wear us down.

Don't forget some of those low level nations you are raiding for money may be tied to a mega alliance; you will need to factor that in too. Obviously I'm not saying the entire CN is populated by mules. However, consider that in my short time with the FCC I had already been asked to act as a mule. Have you taken a look at the states for alliances like The Legion, GATO, and NPO? With 1,000+ members and mules you are looking at odds of more like 100 to 1.

Hrmmm... I don't quite see why there should be muling going on in the first place, but that's OK. I want to disrupt money flows. And if this person wants to try hammering me, well, they best prepare for a thrashing too. Of course, it'd be nice if he could learn proper English...

Well I just got screwed out of being able to collect my taxes today.

It wants me to pay my bills, but hasn't let me collect taxes all day. Now it says I am too late. WTH?

Never mind, it cleared me to collect taxes just a few seconds ago.

He's probably an ESL speaker. These games favor alliances drawing people in from all over the world to keep themselves active in all time zones.

I followed the battle as well as I could by reloading your respective pages. Wheee... saw strength fluctuations of about 300 points by both of you. That's a lot of soldiers and tanks getting smashed up.

Let us know if he starts threatening to send an entire alliance after you, and us. We need to be ready -- even if it's 'ready to run away'...

Yah, I guess the both of us were staying up for this one. I've offered him peace, but the guy doesn't even understand English well enough to know what the hell I'm saying.

Sadly, he smashed up my infrastructure enough to keep me from buying some new aircraft from money taken from his own nation. Well, I have some older WW2 aircraft, but I'll have to live with it. He hasn't done a ground invasion yet, just keeps sending in missles to smash up my infrastructure. (Which is still bloody expensive for me, but I'm not sure why he's not invading. I think he can't mobilize troops because he's in anarchy)
