I have no horse in this race as I am not even on this world any more. But from what I am seeing is that Kug (Andrew) likes to hear himself talk. Well in this case read his words over and and over.
He says he does not agree Zwaardvis decission to declare war. Interesting because I still have friends on this world and the way I understand it Kug had already started scouting around TB players in k55 and then 24 hours later war was declared.
Get your facts straight kid.
Lol as said above, horrible logic..
Also i never said i disagreed with attacking tb, just that the war declaration took away from an element of surprise we had.
We were nobling/nuking some tb members such as n4zghoul and the majority of tb hadn't really spotted the aggression from domino coming towards them especially as N4zghoul quit 2 days after the nukes began.
So the point i was trying to make was, yes i wanted Domino to declare war against tb but i felt it would have been better to wait until we'd got rid of n4zghoul and one or two others, then declared war on the whole of tb after taking out the easier targets, when we first nuked ghoul we thought he was 100% active but after the first nukes landed it was obvious he wasn't logging in much, so i feel like we should have taken asmuch as we could from him first before declaring war.
So personally i'd have waited until n4zghoul was totally disabled to declare war.
Zwaard made a decison to declare war early though and the war has been fun so far, we've taken some losses and we've gained some villages.
So all in all, im happy we declared war in the end but we all know this is a war game so if one tribe can surprise another tribe and take down a key member before declaring full scale war this is a good tactic.
Obviously ghoul isnt in k55 so this doesn't explain us scouting in 55, 24 hours before the declaration, but that is just basically what u6 said. One of my cos knew the declaration was coming i think so he knew that we were about to lose our element of surprise so the best thing to do was scout around and see what the enemies nearest to us were packing in terms of troops.
The other reason i didn't agree with zwaards war declaration was that he didn't give the tribe time to prepare, and you can tell people were not prepared by the early goings conquer wise, though i think that evens out as TB werent prepared either.
Our account personally panicked at the first incomings we saw and we made grave errors, and lost our k55 way easier than we should have done, but we have now got our acts together, our heads are now in the right place and are fully geared towards making this a good war, you can expect to us in k55 again in the future.
I wanted war with tb that isnt to be denied but i think the tribe could have prepared for the war better tactically and mentally and this is why i thought the declaration was premature, not every member was even aware that war would be declared.
So i think you sir "Realistica" did a great job in twisting my words and creating your own image of what went on, never once did i say i didnt want to attack or declare war on tb at some point, i merely said that the declaration was premature and that is simply because when a tribe declares war the whole tribe should be aware war is coming, the whole of domino was not aware war was coming and this was a tactical error made by the leadership.
Zwaardvis has done much better as a leader since this error though and he has improved and has now set up a council to vote on future declarations, so you will see Domino been alot more organised and prepared in the future.
Currently though i think the war has ended up fair to both sides, both TB and Domino didn't know the declaration was coming. The only person that did was Dominos leader did so both tribes weren't really prepared, both tribes are doing decently at the start of the war. TB may eventually overwhelm us but we will not go down without a fight and it will be interesting to see how everything goes.
I can't comment on the war too much as i havent been that active recently but my cos are very active and both can probably give better views on how the war is going for our account and the tribe personally than i can.
I think TB had a period where they were winning but as you can see the last 48 hours have swung Dominos way.
Dark Civnuj leaving the tribe doesnt help but hopefully this can be resolved and he will rejoin as hes a key player, Dark Civnuj is a friend though so whether hes in Domino or not our account will help dark whenever he needs it as im sure will most of the tribe.
